[@paulbryson8888]

These videos are a tremendous help

[@schneeeule7614]

We all want and need love, but no1 is able to GIVE. Most people have a big intention to love, but not the heart 4 it. Most people stick in their egos. They know exactly what they WANT and what next. But they are disconnected with their own heart. So the heart is the undiscovered planet in themselves. Thanx 4 this! 🙋‍♀️

[@Butterflywing369]

It has been very difficult for me to grasp or hold onto happiness thru-out my life. I started out very young coping with grief from abandonment and lack of love and what I deemed as a lack of acceptance from my parents. So, I never gave myself the space or permission to truly be happy. But, love on the other hand well love, I learned is everything and everything is love and everywhere. Life itself is the gift of ❤️ It can be found in the simplest of moments, like a bee gathering nectar or a small child stumbling. It was my parents lack of presence that taught me by the age of 7 that love is everything.

It is so much harder to do this than I thought. Even I am listening carefully and deeply, I still sometimes jump ahead in my thoughts or want to interrupt. I need more practice.

[@kansaspottery]

i think it is difficult, and an over-reach, to tell anyone what their love consists of. We don't understand much about others, its not always available to us. Love is based on risk; also we don't always get to choose who we love. I feel sorry for people who do love, then hear this. It is excessive.

[@kimballbarrett1961]

[@lordbyron3603]

I do not have the capacity to listen deeply! Thay says it has to be cultivated.

[@oldsachem]
