no matter what a human is experiencing love can enter any heart in any moment that it's called in love is what heals so if we're not bringing love to the most disenfranchised parts of ourself and have that reflect in society then it's just going to perpetuate more pain we've lost sight of what it is just to show up as a human we've been trying to produce be the smartest be rewarded be seen and yet we've missed the space holding between each other
And I was just thinking, as you were saying that, you know, thinking about desire and how desire is really more of a tool to move us towards the awakening that brings us to the life we love, whether we have the outcome or not, then it starts to become easier to get to that place of, oh, I see that my life is better because I allowed this desire to move me on the path of discovery of finding out who I am and what it is that I really want underneath.
Like you were speaking to most of the time we want peace, right? We want ease. We want love. We want connection. We want to be seen. We want all of those characteristics that are found in relationship.
And so if we allow desire to be the thing that moves us towards the deeper relationships that we want, then we can have what we want and ultimately fulfill all of those dreams and then have, you know, whatever the things are and enjoy that too.
I mean, that's such a vast conversation because there are layers of it depending on where we all meet each other, right? But I think that's the gift of self-love or of love in general is that it has the opportunity to be the one, I'll say, a frequency that can meet the world wherever it is. So no matter what a human is experiencing, love can enter any heart in any moment that it's called in.
So I remember when I was first coming onto this path, I was on a journey to lose weight. I was, I was on a journey to lose a hundred pounds. And in the very beginning of the journey, it met me in the place of my darkest hour where I was putting lotion on my feet and on my legs. And I was saying, I love you, joy. I love you.
And I was saying things that I hadn't heard, but I was developing a relationship with my body. I was developing a relationship with my inner dialogue. So it was meeting me in this shadow energy, this pain, suffering, where the only thing that could reach me was that love.
And I think that's where when we just scan out that no matter how painful, no matter what kind of war, no wonder what kind of experience we're having inside or between cultures, love can meet us there. And I just think nothing else can do that. But if we can get a conversation around what love actually is and begin inviting it into our, I'll say agendas or our strategies.
If love becomes a conversation within our businesses, within our families in a way that isn't just, I love you and I accept you as you are, but it's what would a relationship with love look like if I infused it into the very nature of my business, into my strategies, into what I'm thinking about, who I'm talking to. And I let it meet my entire team wherever it is.
And I let it meet my neighbors wherever they are. And I didn't need them to meet me at the level of mind. only the level of love. That's how it has the power to change the world because we'll never have the same ideas. We'll never meet there. But if we allow the mind and the heart to meet and then allow the heart to lead into the world, then things begin to shift.
This is some micro ways that also reflect macro.
And I love that because I think you said it in that and. So for us, it's always, can we look at this through the lens of and? Yeah. And I think that's what happens in the awakening. So we first start off our life thinking about what am I getting from my parents? What am I getting from my friends? What am I getting from this experience? And we're not thinking about what they're getting.
We're not taught that we're not mirrored that as we're younger. And I think that's something that we can begin doing is to mirror the Let's make this about us. So we both want to have an experience. And for me, I want this for me. And I want you to have the experience you want to have. And so how do we address that as a natural pattern within us that I naturally think about?
And like you were saying, As we give to one culture or one community or one country, it's for ourselves and for you. How can we extend this? So I think that's just we ripple that out into our lives. What are we thinking about and or is it always for me or you?
And even as we come into our power early awakening, we tend to have this sense of I've got to get my power back and I've got to make sure that I'm seen and heard. And so it takes those layers of awakening and softening of the heart to go, oh, yes. not just for me, but how can I be here for you? Right? How can I be here for you without negating myself? And I think that's the key.
Right. But I think that it's so interesting because it identifies self-love as a tool again. rather than a relationship. So when it's a tool, you just use the tool to your whatever advantage. And I think that's what we're all really saying, is relationship is what's shifting all of this.
I think it's really what makes us so human. Like, I think we've lost sight of what it is just to show up as a human. We've been trying to produce. We've been trying to be the smartest, get something, be rewarded, be seen for ourselves. And yet we've missed the space holding between each other. And I think that's something that, you know, we talk about this every single day.
Our whole entire life is about the space we hold with each other. And it is our entire life is reflected from that. And we try to do the same thing with clients and as we're with people. And it's a simple thing that would have been impossible 20 years ago for me. Right. But it's such a simple thing once you realize it.
I think we look at forgiveness as one of the fundamental tools where love allows us to experience love in action. So forgiveness, we look at this as being able to give as before, right? So forgiveness allows us to return to a state where my heart is open and I'm able to give myself to the world again, right?
Because whatever happened caused me to contract and to step back and that doesn't serve me. So now whatever occurred continues to perpetuate itself through me. So forgiveness creates an opportunity to rewire our experience, And to say, even though this thing occurred, I can also step forward and continue to have my life.
