Love is here

Love is here. ⠀
She came to destroy you. So she does that, ruthlessly. You’re lost to your sense of identity. You are ⠀
crushed and crumbled. ⠀
⠀
It is love. ⠀
⠀
Just when you thought she was done with you, she comes and pours nectar all over your wounds, she ⠀
wraps you in precious silks, she covers you in sweetness. ⠀
⠀
It is love. ⠀
⠀
It is love that screams your name at the top of her lungs from the rooftops. ⠀
It is love whose voice is quieter than a mouse. ⠀
⠀
It is love that opens the cage and sets you free. ⠀
⠀
It is love that shows you that this freedom comes at great cost. ⠀
⠀
The cost is having to drop your all too familiar victim behaviour. ⠀
⠀
It is love. ⠀
⠀
The smell of rain, the colour of your lover’s eyes, the vastness of the embrace of the sky… ⠀
⠀
It is love. ⠀
⠀
The disillusionment, the pain of having to drop yet-another-dream, the recognition that you’ve acted from a⠀
wound, not truth. ⠀
⠀
It is love. ⠀
⠀
Becoming revealed in your shame, your ugliest pain. ⠀
⠀
It is love. ⠀
⠀
No matter what’s going on in your life, it is love knocking on your door. If you’re brave enough and dare to ⠀
listen, you will hear her voice. ⠀
⠀
No matter what’s going on in your life, it is love knocking on your door. Every moment you have the ⠀
greatest privilege on this planet: you have the possibility to choose to see love. ⠀
⠀
No matter what’s going on in your life, it is love knocking on your door. It is love that invites you to lean in ⠀
and recognise that underneath trauma, pain and emotional overload – she is there, waiting to be ⠀
revealed. ⠀
⠀
Love teaches us responsibility. To awaken to love we have to take responsibility for our human ⠀
experience. In that we recognise that responsibility for the world we live in is all ours. ⠀
​⠀
Each time we choose love over fear we are contributing to the New World, that we all so want to live in. ⠀
⠀
Love is here. ⠀
⠀
Where are you?⠀
