Love is not a verb. Can you "love?" Or just are we recognizing that's what everything is or not?

"Everything is right the way it is right now," is a quote by Jared, who texted that to me one night.

Transcript

Welcome back to my journal. I'm going to read. My entry from March 23rd, 2022. I called it into the unknown, but I mean, that could be the title of everyone's life always. So It's not that impressive. I met share today. I have no idea what that sentence will mean in some unknown and non-existent future, maybe something. Maybe not much. It was a delightful meeting though. I had the same basic theme of a conversation today as I did yesterday. Women frustrated on fulfilled by and ready, but scared to leave the relationship. But they know something has to change. And what I do is guide them into their strength, courage, and ability to communicate their needs and take actions and congruence with them. This congruent action taking is how one's life has changed. Speaking, it releases the energy and clears a path. Stepping forward happens when you keep your word. You keep your word. And when you let love takeover. Because love has no judgment. Love is patient kind, et cetera. Indiscriminately. Love is not a verb. It is a state of being. You cannot quote. On quote, love someone. You really don't have that power. You can want for another what the other wants and that's as close as you're going to get. Take compassion. You can't. Quote, unquote compassion. Someone any more than you can love someone. Compassion is not a verb. We say, I have compassion for someone. We could say, I have love for someone. But neither of these. Is true either. You cannot possess compassion nor can you possess love. You can feel compassion and you can feel love. Feeling love is not loving. It is a state of being. And it is neutral. Feeling love is a state of pure neutrality. Saying I love you really means I feel love for you, which means I want for you what you want for you. How many people walking around actually mean. Baby. What you want for you is what I want for you. And I have no attachment or idealization or preference. As to what that looks like for you. One or two. Is my best estimate. And it's probably not the one pushing back. When you say no, or set a boundary. Share your honest feelings and fears. And tells you that you make or break their day. Love doesn't do those things. Love states' truth neutrally. I love keeps its word. Love acts congruently with itself. Loved wants for another what the other ones. Loved wants for you, what you want. Attraction. Wants to join. Love is the neutral party. The space in which the joining happens. Love is the answer because love is neutral. It sees no right or wrong. Love just as. When we come back to ourselves, we come back to love. Our center. Our anchor, our roots, our home is love. When I am home, I have no fear. We also cannot possess fear. We can only feel it. So I feel no fear. Because when I am home, I feel love. I am love. It's not a verb. It's just really not a verb. Got that. Love, it's not a verb. So curious to hear your thoughts about this journal entry of mine. And the way, I guess I define love. Which I believe I'll be working with for my entire life. So your input is. Greatly appreciated. What. Do you feel. Or think. Or understand, love to be. And is it even a verb? Can you actually love or. Can you simply be aware of love and move with her without it? That would be my curiosity. My biggest curiosity at this point. I can't wait to hear from you. You can contact me. At Laura, christine.us/contact. You'll also hear how after the music starts and until next time. I'm sending you so, so, so much love, in fact so much that it's all of it. And then some more. We'll talk tomorrow
