The strength, depth, breadth, commitment, and unconditionality of your love is the key determinant of your spiritual evolution.
Love doesn’t mean you condone someone’s actions.
Love doesn’t mean accepting what-is and giving up on consciously, intentionally, and mindfully moving forward.
Can you love your life regardless of circumstance?
This isn’t ordinary love.
This is radical, infinite love, which I know deep in my heart that we are all capable of.
We all come from infinite love and are all returning to it.
Humanity has been living by the maxim, “If we hate it enough, it will just go away.”
That approach does not, cannot, and will never work.
What we resist will persist.
The ONLY way out is through.
And the only way through is love
What if Rumi was right – “Thorugh love, all pain will turn to medicine”
