Guest guest Posted October 19, 2000 Report Share Posted October 19, 2000 <<Love never could destroy me but I can certainly allow it to devastate me if I don't have a godd self esteem.>> But it's not LOVE that destroys or devastates, it's the feeling or fear of not having love returned, or the toxic effects of jealousy, or addiction to romantic love, or our own feelings of low self-esteem that makes us feel bad. Love can't destroy - love (not romantic love, or sexual love - just love) is the ultimate freedom and the ultimate positive force. I can't express it any better and know I'm not saying what I need to. grrr! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 19, 2000 Report Share Posted October 19, 2000 I SOOOOO agree with you. We ARE love. We are created in and with pure love.

I was going to reply to this thread exactly as you did. Well said.... It should be noted that the stronger our attachments, the greater the pain we experience. This can be said not only for our expectation of love returned, but for anything upon which we place an attachment to its outcome.
