Hatred and Love, Shifting into Possibility.

Hatred and Love, Shifting into Possibility.

Core spirituality, my personal journey

We have not yet realized the power of our love and its capacity to heal the hate that is still held in our human family, our human minds and hearts and our beliefs. For what is hate really? Is it the refusal to love?

Love beckons!

The need we have to share this love for who we are and all that encompasses.

The need we have to be loved for who we are, and all that encompasses. Exists!

Love has much to do here, and through our trials and tragedies shows us how we can do better.

The morality of love is ever-present, and never-ending in its scope for expression in a world so full of hate, so full of hurt. There are many still captive to the darkened shadows of lovelessness. Yet love prevails in the face of it all!

I have experienced this hate in my life, and it is always hurtful. I have felt this in my family, my ohana. Love is my own primary response to heal that hurt. I have been tested many times.

Wherever there is any bigotry, any hate amongst us that leads to violence, that violence may be delivered in words, in emotions, or in actions.

However this may arise, our response can balance the equation of inequality and mis-perception for self.

The work of any perpetrator will have to also arise from within self. Ultimately this occurs within each of us, and so i consciously choose to do my own inner work and carry on.

These times are filled with many new opportunities to make better choices to love all that which we held outside ourselves …. up to now.

There is another reason for hate, arising from a  wound! The wounded self… 

A wounded mind, a wounded heart strikes out.

This wound in a man or woman, or child needs the love that can hold the wound and press forward to re balance what has passed in the wake of unimaginable pain. The sadness of these things is our heart crying to love.

And love we may permit ourselves, anyway. This is not just hurt alone with which we hold pain it is also our hearts yearning deeply from within to love and be loved.

Many hearts are crying on this planet… our world is opening to a long history of abuse, hurt, woundedness, and victimization.

The wound in our human family is felt because we can love, and we do not.

We hurt because we deeply need to be loved and to love. And only a real love breaks the bondage’s of confusion, pain and suffering.

Our refusal to surrender to love within ourselves is a painful one. Just as a pus must come out for a wound to heal, so too must the darkened thoughts and feelings arise so as to release what is preventing this love from being discovered.

Love is wise and powerful and will right what needs to be righted given a chance. Love is an action and not just an idea, as a verb it is moving energy. Love as an action inside each of us moves us all. Love in this way is universal and leads us to our mutuality. Our universal place of oneness through diversity.

Love is accountable and as such takes new footing in responsible action with regard to hate and the violence that results. It will take a lot of love to overcome a lot of hate in this world. For every bigoted idea, every injurious hatred still held, love seeks a surrender. Love seeks a surrender in any individual imprisoned by such notions. Love seeks a way through our world just as a stream will find any crack in the land to further its own outward flow.

The cracks in our world are those still in darkness. The darkness of the un-awakened heart. And so every tragedy holds open the moment long enough for that love to come through, even if just a tiny bit.

As “WITNESS” to hatred unfolds on a mass level through media this provides infinite new probabilities for re examinations on infinite new ways for our human perception. And to reevaluate how we decide what needs to be in our world.

Re examine everything that is about hate and violence and our need to express this. How meaningful it is that we embrace these feelings within our humanity and make new and different choices in our personal lives. The choice to love and be loved and to have this within authenticity.

Thus meaning is derived by the most base, most horrendous of any action. Without our individual re examinations we doom ourselves to repeat and repeat and repeat.

Love within each of us can provide meaningful purpose for that which seems meaningless.

Loving meaningful purpose arises now to lead us into our darkened hearts and out into our loving free new possibility. Much will change. And still there are those who hold tightly to their wounds. We can and will continue onward holding the possibility that at any moment anything can and will change, and change for the better. Though the path is full of darkness around us we hold a light within. We can have these conversations.

To learn to walk along a darkened path yet hold open and freely a light within. This is a new paradigm and one that can hold much safety and potential. For at any moment that inner light may reach a darkened place in someone, or some place around each of us. we can now learn to speak to that which holds us back and learn to open our hearts in new possibilities.

As the inner light within our humanity grows our capacity to overcome darkness around us increases. Thus we learn to illuminate our interior places. We learn to lighten our hearts, our minds and our bodies and bring newness to that which was old.

love is love is love is love is love is love
