Nothing about love is meaningless. Love is the meaning of life itself. Life is love, expressed. That is life. Therefore, every act of love is life expressing, at the hightest level. The fact that something, some experience, is temporary, or relatively short, does not render it meaningless. Indeed, it may give it more meaning.

Let me explain a bit more about love, it will help you understand more fully.

Experiences of love are temporary, but love itself is eternal. These experiences are only here-and-now expressions of a love that is everywhere, always.

It might not seem to make it more joyful for us. Let us see if we can bring the idea of joy back into it.

We do have someone in particular that we love right now. Maybe one, in particular with whom we partner. Now this one person whom we feel a particular love, we might have sexual experiences with, or desire sexual experiences with, and these experiences, are there continual, constant and never-ending. Don't we wish? :) For now, we know that these experiences are temporary and short lived, is that correct?

Does this fact give these experiences less meaning? Does it make it less enjoyable?

Are we saying that our love for this particular person is forever, but our expressions of love for him/her in this particular way are periodical, temporary, and short-lived, is that correct? If the answer is yes, then the question is, where we are going!

Are we going to a place where we cannot enjoy or have meaning in our expressions of love as an eternal being simply because the experiences themselves are temporary? Or are we going to a place of greater understanding that allows us to love "full out" what we love when we love it, even knowing that the experience of love in that particular form is temporary?

If we go to the latter place, then we know that it is the full-out loving of life, and of all that life presents in every moment, that is the expression of Godliness. It actually gives us the drive and desire to call forth these short and temporary experiences with a total feeling of joy, again and again. This level of desire and drive opens the door to the evolved version of being totally joyful that is the Second Blessing Attitude: To Be totally Loving. The will to express joy in it's fullest and calling forth the experience upon ourselves, creates a balance in our lives when dealing with negative daily events.

Now what does it mean to be totally loving? How does it work?

We would do better to make it a moment-to-moment creating. Life is not a process of discovery; it is a process of Creation.

How do we then create, moment-to-moment, the experience of unconditional and unlimited love? If we don't have the answer to this question, then we cannot say that we understand what it means to be totally loving. As a practical matter, they have no meaning. That is the problem today with the word "Love."

And the phrase: "I Love You!", yes, people say it, but many people do not understand what it means -- What it really means -- to love another. People understand what it means to need another, to want something from another, and even to be willing to give someting in return for what they need and want, but they don't understand what it means to really love, to truly love. Many people have had a real challenge, a real problem, with this word, Love, and this phrase: "I Love You."

Now, should we give up, because we have been 'judged' as beings who don't understand what love really means? Or can we truly be loving without conditions, without any limitation? Can human being do that? The answer is, YES!

To be truly loving is to be completely natural. Loving is the natural thing to do. It is not normal, but it is natural. What is the difference? "Normal" is a word used to denote what is usual, commonplace, consistent. the word, "Natural" is used to denote the basic nature of a thing. Your basic nature as a human being is to be loving, to love anyone and eveything. Though, it is not normal for you to do so.

Why? because we have been taught to act against our basic nature -- Not to be natural -- in the way we move through the world. Why we have been taught that, because we belived that our Natural Self is bad, is evil, is something which must be tamed, restrained, subdude. And so we have required our race to exhibit and adhere to "normal" behaviour that are not natural. To be "natural" was to be sinful, indulgent, perhaps even dangerously evil. Even to allow ourself to be seen in a "natural" state was said to be sinful.

We can not deny that it is almost repressive in some homes, and in some cultures to be in our natural state of being. This is not the only natural aspect of our being that many of us have discouraged. We have discouraged "Telling the Truth," even though it is very natural for us to do so. We have discouraged basic trust in the universe, singing, dancing and rejoicing and celebrating, though every bone in our bodies are aching to explode with the pure wonder of Who We Are!

We have done these things because we are afraid that if we "give in" to natural tendencies, we will be hurt, and if we give in to natural pleasures, we will hurt ourselves and others. We carry this fear because we hold a Sponsoring Thought about the human race which says that we, our species are basically evil. We imagine that we were "born in sin," or that we do nothing, but hurting ourselves with sinful acts, and that it is our nature to be bad.

This is a decision we have implemented and made about ourselves. Not wanting to make ourselves "wrong," we have gone to extraordinary lengths to make ourselves "right!" Our lives has shown us that we are right about this, and so we have adopted this as our cultural story. This is just the way it is, we say, and by continually saying it and teaching it to our children, we have made it so.

Unless we change our story, change our idea of who we are and how we are as a race, as a species, we can never be fully loving, because we can not even fully love ourselves.

That is the first step in being fully loving. We must fully love ourselves. This we can not do so long as we believe that we were born in sin, and are basically evil. Yet "evil," backwards is LIVE!

This question -- what is the basic nature of human being? -- is the most important question now before the human race. If we believe that we are by nature non-trustworthy and evil, we will create a society that supports that view, that enact laws, approve rules, adopt regulations, and impose restraints that are justified, as we have.

Now if we choose again and decide that we are by nature trustworthy and good, we will creat an entirely different kind of society, in which laws, rules, regulations and restraints are rarely required.

The first society will be freedom limiting and the new society will be freedom giving. We are fully loving, because we are naturally free. To be fully free is to be fully joyful, because full freedom creates the space for every joyful experice, Freedom is the basic nature of our soul. It is also the basic nature of GOD.

The degree that we are not fully free is the degree to which we are not fully joyful -- and that is the degree to which we are not fully Loving.

So start loving yourself, because you are the most loving being on the face of the earth! Unless we fully and freely love ourselves, we can never be totally loving. When we love ourselves fully, unconditionally and unlimited, we will not be full of love and we won't be able to love others. When we love ourselves, it is easier to love others. A true love is the unconditional, free and unlimited love.The truth is that We Are All One! When I love me, it means that I love you and I love anything and everything.

Let's all of us Love ourselves and everything that is part of us, and allow ourselves to be loved. Then we will en-joy the Second Blessing Attitude: "Being Totally Loving!"
