A loving heart is a happy heart.
A loving heart gives and gives. If love is not the solution, will hatred solve the problem?
We are what we do, not what we say we do.
So let's start small. Love is a human need.
We all need love, but we are miserly in giving this love
We are watchful of how much we love and whom we love.
We have filters.
We like to share our love with a certain person and not with others
We do not love unconditionally. And our excuse?
Our excuse for that is our fear of being used by others.
When I talk about loving unconditionally, many questions do arise like
“Is it possible for anyone to keep on giving this love all the time?”
"Is it not tiring?”, ”Is it even possible?”
Let me clarify the idea of loving one and all, so we get the right understanding.
In day to day life, our love is a verb
and it springs into action for our family and dear and near ones
We run around and take care when our loved ones are sick
We play and have fun with our children. We do whatever is necessary for our family.
Obviously, we cannot love everyone we come across with the same attention and intensity.
That is not what we mean when we talk about loving one and all
My love is surely going to be different
when I love my father vs my mother,
my brother vs my sister, my children vs my wife
Expressions of love will be different.
The under current of love is the same. The expression will be different.
It is just like the electric current passing through a heater
passing through an air conditioner, and passing through a fan
passing through an electric bulb. It is the same current with various results.
When we talk about the idea of loving one and all
we are referring to our invisible heart
its connection with another heart
When I look at someone across the street, do I look at them with love?
When I am scrolling through the Facebook feed and I see pictures of friends,
am I thinking of them with love?
When I am speaking with someone, do I have love in my heart?
Even when I am angry, am I able to keep it in check so it does not poison the love within?
Our heart should always be open
Love should always be flowing, and what happens when the heart is always flowing with love?
Think of a flower, let’s see the golden champa, my personal favourite.
When it blossoms, its fragrance is so mesmerising that often people
are stopped in their tracks when the wind carries its fragrance in their direction.
Everyone around the golden champa benefits from its fragrance. But tell me
Who is the biggest beneficiary of fragrance? It is the flower itself.
For its pollination, a lot of butterflies will gather around it and help it pollinate
Without it, it will die. There will not be any second champa to that
When the golden champa is drowned in its own fragrance
likewise the heart with love flowing is always drowned in soft beauty of love
It stands taller
A loving heart is a happy heart.
A loving heart gives and gives. If love is not the solution, will hatred solve the problem?
The group that perpetuates violence out of hatred
or under the false understanding of doing things in the name of God
they will surely pay its price.
