Ying - Yang

Fear - Courage

Joy - Loneliness

Boredom  -Excitement

Love - Suffering

What is one of these concepts without the other? Can any of these exist without it's counterpart?

Without fear, courage wouldn't exist, because the very act of courage is not to stop being scared, but to face your fear. 

Without those moments of solitude, how would we have the time to collect our thoughts and appreciate the people we spend time with in our lives? How would we have a positive effect in the lives of our love ones if we didn't have the time alone to think about how to make them happy?

And when is it when we feel the most enthusiastic or excited? What brings the butterflies to your stomach? Without the state of mind of 'waiting' or 'being bored', how will we have the time to build the anticipation for enthusiasm or excitement?

And suffering? I hear some of you say, what on earth is the point in that???? Will we ever rid the world of it? Well, aslong as their is loss, there will always be suffering. But Love is sufferings faithful partner. You have to let a wave of suffering, or a loss, pass into you and through you, to realize love and wonderful happenings are right behind , waiting for you to experience pure joy again in all its glory. It's only when we suffer the most that we long for love the most, and it then comes knocking at your door.

But of course, for us, especially this day and age, this has become very difficult to comprehend. We get stuck inside the dark negative concepts and never see the light  at the end of the tunnel. But if you don't believe that the positive counter part  is only round the corner, you won't be able to see it. It will pass you by without you noticing anything. And if you had your eyes close, in your mind it would have never even existed. 

And so the puzzle that remains is, how do we learn  to open our hearts to have complete faith in the worlds balance?

4  magic words 

This too will pass.

When we are bored, alone, scared or suffering, always believe that what ever your feeling it is ONLY  a phase. A passing time. Believe that no matter what, it has to change. In fact, it WILL change. The universe is constantly changing, from the position of each beautiful star in the sky, to the countless species of birds that migrate during the winter, moving their home and their life to a different location. Whatever your feeling, there is only one true thing that is real about it - that one day, it will pass.

But the magic doesn't stop there. What about the best moments in life? Where the joy is beyond what you can comprehend? When walking or running has transformed into flying  through the clouds? Will this 4 word phrase is just as important in these happy times as well. Say these words when you are happy and you will realise the importance of those moments. And suddenly you will do everything in your power to make them even better, creating the best moments of your life, because you know, like everything else, those moments will also pass.

Put it in your journal. Write it in your diary. Enter it onto the screensaver of your mobile phone. If you can see these words and read them everyday, in ever situation, it will guarantee to make you smile to yourself and allow anything that you want in your life to become possible.

Just from this small piece of knowledge, knowing everything will pass can give you so much peace in your life, your heart and your soul.

Amore

'I love you, because all the loves in the world are like different rivers flowing into the same lake, where they meet and are transformed into a single love that becomes rain and blesses the earth.' P.Coelho

But what is love? Unfortunately we have over-complicated this question far too much, and have all been left very confused by the concept of 'being in love'.

Some people say:

' It's when you can't stop thinking about that person.'

 But don't you think that sounds more like obsession?

Others say:

'When you love someone, they should do what you tell them to do and be who you want them to be'

Doesn't that sound a little like possessiveness?

So being in love is all about being possessive and obsessive.  It just doesn't sound right. Because it's from these two concepts that other negative emotions are formed. In particular Anger, Jealousy and Hatred.

So when so when your 'in love' like above and your soul is eventually full of all this negativity, the question changes from 'What is Love' to 'Where on earth has Love gone?' And once we are tired of feeling all of these emotions, over a period of time we start to 'fall out of love' and end relationships because there's no sense in carrying on.

The Science

The important thing we have forgotten is that Love isn't actually an emotion. Emotions are created in the brain from our thoughts and the brain transmits the signals in order for certain chemicals to be released into the body that makes us feel a certain way. Anger, jealousy  hatred, envy, sadness are all negative emotions created in the brain.

But Love is not an emotion and it is not created in the brain. It is an energy, in its purest form which gives life to all positive emotions, such as hope, happiness, joy, relief, contentedness  Without the energy of Love, non of these emotions can grow and be manifested.

So if Love is an energy, then it is a fact of science that 'Falling in and out of love'  is a false concept. Because according to science, all energy can never be created or destroyed, only changed into different forms. And when we fully embrace this energy with all of our soul, it becomes one of the most powerful forces known to existence.

Love has the power to transform. To heal, to change the planet, to rid all evil and to save the world.

How do we fully manifest the energy of Love?

First we must learn how to demolish  the ever-growing layers of negative emotion. One by one, brick by brick, it can be completely eradicated. Here's how:
Clear your mind, and start the demolition:

The Demolition

Take away Anger

You'll be left with Jealousy

Rip apart Jealousy

Possessiveness will remain

Dispose of possessiveness

Only Attachment will conquer

Clear all of your attachments

A powerful realization  occurs

That all of the above derived from one source, Pure Fear. The sole reason for every mistake made by Human Kind. People are always frightened. It doesn't have to be this way. People don't have to suffer. Fight the fear and rid it completely from your life.

When all of the above has been stripped away, there remains only a void, a healthy empty space inside of you. That is the moment when you embrace loves energy and let it fill every corner of your soul. With the Love for:

- all people on this Earth

- The birds, the trees, the mountains and all of mother natures gifts

- The infinity beauty that exists within the stars

- The healing power of the sun.

- Your life and YOURSELF in moments of solitude.

- The miracles that happen everyday in this world.

- The silences in between the craziness.

Let it grow inside of you and then spread it. Pour it into others, friends, family and strangers, into your work, into your smiles and laughter, into your words until your life is fully positively brimming with it.

Love......

- Even your enemies. Because Love is without reason.

- Not only your family, but anybody that shows you kindness of any kind.  Because Love is not blood.

- Your ex-lovers, no matter how things ended with that person.  Because even the action of letting go of that person is an act of Love, Love is not attachment, it's acceptance, it's sacrifice.

- That person you only met once but immediately felt a strong connection for. Because Love IS the special connection between two people, which can be incredibly powerful and intense, and which should never be feared, only ever embraced!

- The people that life mysteriously and unexpectedly guides into your arms, no matter what phase of life you are in, or whether you think you are ready for love or not. Because Love is destiny.

How I Love

Now I know this sounds crazy, but I am always in Love. And it's not because I crave affection or fear the darkness in solitude. It's because I can feel it all around me, and I've opened my heart up to receive it completely. 

It's because I have no boundaries in my heart that, when I meet someone that I have a strong connection with for the first time, I immediately know it's Love. I do not fear the rejection, or the loss of that Love, because Love can never be lost or found - it's always there. And so I'm not scared to tell people I Love them. 

Life is too short to keep the words 'I love you' locked in our hearts. (P.Coelho) But they are also only words, so don't forget the importance of demonstrating how you feel as well. And when you demonstrate, give love, but do so without the expectation of receiving. 

Love is an act of faith, not an exchange. (P.Coelho)

Love is being. Love is living. Love is the source of everything good that exists in your life and in the universe. Embrace it. Spread it. Be it.
