Beyond My Understanding

Beyond my understanding:

it’s now okay for me to admit that I don’t know what love is, not really, certainly not the depth of a joyful, unconditional love that comes unbidden to the surface of my mind when I finally let go of my own insistence for it to unfold in a very specific way.

Love is beyond my understanding.

yet it’s exactly who I am.

I’m done insisting, or at least I hope to be — my only sincere wish is for love to be a way of life, my heart expression for every occasion. With this in mind the objective, and of course this has always been the only true objective, is to simply see through all the barriers I’ve ever placed before love’s awareness. My goal is to awaken, gently so, to the light of love’s presence that’s finally been uncovered.

it’s beyond my understanding…

but I know it’s who I am.

I love you, Eric
