My Heart Hurts
Dear ones, we hear your cries and know your pain but we say it is your choice to hurt, you know. You have given all your power to another and when the other does not do what you feel they should, then you react in pain.
Love is so misused that it should be renamed ‘Pain’. We all want to be in love but the happiness tends to lead into sadness and then we call that Love.
Love is simply you feeling happy with yourself because you use someone else’s reaction to you as a reminder of who you really are. In other words, when you first meet someone you like, they make you feel this inner joy. You feel stronger, happier, more confident in yourself. You think if this person likes me, well I must be likable.
Now the truth is that you are likable but not to yourself. You are using this person’s opinion of you to like yourself. Then if this person now steps out of line and doesn’t do what you want of him/her, then you start to doubt your liability.
We say, do not use another to like yourself. Do not use another’s opinion to see who you really are. And never, never, never use another to give you what you deserve in life and you will never feel your heart hurting for love again.
