- Mystery of True Love -
If you find yourself in love with someone who does not
love you, be gentle with yourself. There is nothing wrong with you. Love
just didn't choose to rest in the other person's heart.
If you find someone else in love with you and you don't
love him, feel honored that love came and called at your door, but gently
refuse the gift you cannot return.
If you fall in love with another, and he falls in love
with you, and then love chooses to leave, do not try to reclaim it or to
assess blame. Let it go. There is a reason and there is a meaning. You
will know in time.
Remember that you don't choose love. LOVE CHOOSES YOU.
All you can really do is accept it for all its mystery when it comes into
your life. Feel the way it fills you to overflowing, then reach out and
give it away. Give it back to the person who brought it alive in you. Give
it to others who deem poor in spirit.Give it to the world around you in
anyway you can. This is where many lovers go wrong. Having been so long
without love, they understand love only as a need. They see their hearts
as empty places that will be filled by love, and they begin to look at
love as something that flows to them rather than from them. Remember this,
and keep it to your heart. Love has its own time, its own seasons, and
its own reason for coming and going. You cannot bribe it or coerce it,
or reason it into staying. You can only embrace it when it arrives and
give it away when it comes to you. But if it chooses to leave from your
heart or from the heart of your lover, there is nothing you can do and
there is nothing you should do.
Love always had been and always will be a mystery. Be
glad that it came to live for a moment in your life. If you keep your heart
open it will come again.
