Love is Always Worth the Risk

Why is it we pretend that love doesn’t matter, or more importantly that we can cope on our own? We have to ask ourselves, “Why is that we are so scared to love?” Is it fear of being rejected, fear of being judged? I’d say that it is the fear of being fully known, and we are scared to death about revealing ourselves. The idea that we could be truly loved completely freaks us out.

Look around and think for a moment. People put up their barriers once you get closer to them. We have just gotten so used to protecting ourselves and putting up our warrior façade that we just don’t let people in anymore. Boy, we’re really good at that! I always say, “We have no idea just how powerful we are!” We say we want love, but really we are masters in the protection business. And some of us are so used to playing that game, that we have even deceived ourselves.

The truth of the matter is, that we have to fully shed our armour. We have to be willing to share a little, dance a little, open up a little. You might be thinking, “Gosh, but it’s just so darn scary to love.” My answer to that would be, that with every risk you take to show up and give a part of yourself, another little gorgeous curtain of love opens up right in front of your eyes. Love is always worth the risk.

Why are you protecting your heart and spending so much time shying away, doing the complete opposite of what you truly want? You have been shelving yourself away in closed quarters. And just like a beautiful diamond necklace, the beauty is in being able to let your love shine fully.

People love to take others in. It’s like taking a deep breath and just holding it for a fraction longer and then letting it go, ready for the next loving breath. Let people sample you, let them breathe you in fully. Let them delight in you. And in allowing them, you will receive the most precious gift known to man. Bliss!

How many more of you would like to experience bliss off the charts at work or in your intimate relationships? Then the question I pose to you for 2010 is, “What would you have to give up completely to allow for sheer bliss to show up in the areas of your life? Where would it make the greatest difference?”

If you take a closer look, the answer has been staring you in the face for some time. We are so adamant about wanting to be right all the time, and we get off on making others wrong. It’s our automatic default way to be. If only we would see the pain and the affect this has on our life.

The costs are tremendous; no bliss, no love. That’s not what any of us truly want. We are committed to experiencing love off the charts in 2010. My request to each and every reader then is, “Let’s simply get ourselves out of the way. Lay your ‘be right’ sword to rest and open up the door to love. Be prepared to fling open the love gates and simply let the love troops into your heart. We might get a complete army!

Let your guard down and totally surprise yourself in 2010!

Miracles and blessings always.
