LEARNING THE ROCKY ROAD TO LOVE

[The following is a  slightly reworked reprint of my post of February 23, 2020.]

I wonder if the road to love isn't rocky because it so often originates with surrender, a hot-button word that translates to our ego as loser. In fact, surrender of our wants is the path to love. We begin to feel we are on the right track when our resistance evolves within our very being to acceptance. From there it's an easy...make that easier...transition to love.

Resisting others only cements their resistance to us. 

The key here is remembering that what we see is always ourself only works for us when we apply it to our own self...as opposed to applying it to the other as a gotcha, so s/he will see their error and change.

We must loose our resistance and let it go. Releasing our resistance, or changing our mind, is the act of turning our very thoughts upside down. For that we must go to God for God who can and will intervene in our life in our benefit...our mind set to I am right is then reset to we are right

We are learning a whole new level of love.

Thank you.

P.S. To quote Cicero: I have always been of the opinion that unpopularity earned by doing what is right is not unpopularity at all...but glory. (Which quote I got from the comic strip Candorville, 2/23/19.)
