Love awakens your senses to the preciousness of existence

1 year ago

If today marked your final day on this earth, what words of affection would you express to your beloved?

Within the realm of relationships, an ocean of emotions surges, fueled by our inclination to treat them as matters of life and death.

This inclination arises because embarking on a relationship forces us to confront our deepest fears head-on.

Intimate partners, family members, closest friends, children, and parents—those for whom we hold the utmost care—act as vivid reflections of our lives. Relationships serve as mirrors that unveil our conditioning, pressing desires, and belief systems. Hence, the caliber of our relationships genuinely determines the quality of our lives.

It comes as no surprise, then, that relationships hold such paramount importance to us, stirring up intense emotions within us. Sage and I aspire to reduce the intensity we bring to pure love.

The truth is, every issue can be resolved with our loved ones if we release the blame that burdens us. Each relationship presents an opportunity for growth, even in moments of anger, frustration, or fear. These emotional upheavals do not originate from our partners; rather, they stem from our conditioning, past experiences, and our perceptions of the world. (Even those perspectives we dislike.)

Our expectations, which originate from these worldviews, become the source of our upsets with ourselves and our partners. The turmoil arises from our own rules, expectations, and the narratives of blame we cling to.

Hence, consider this each day of the year

If you were aware that today was your final day on this Earth, what messages would you convey to your cherished ones?
How would you embody love?
Which narratives would you release?
If you were privileged to know that this would be the last time you ever saw them, what would no longer be worth the distress?

Wouldn’t all the grievances and conflicts you harbor towards your loved ones dissipate if you acknowledged that this moment may be your last with them? We dare you to live from this higher truth today and every day. Pain emanates from withholding the love residing within our hearts. Suffering arises when we impose punishment on our partners. That is not love. A relationship is a sanctuary of giving, not merely a source of fulfillment for our needs.
