"My Real job is to love!" That's what the bumper seal on the car in front of me said. I smiled broadly as I silently thanked the driver of the car for the priceless reminder.
The absolute truth of that statement is so apparent to me, as are the many challenges in trying to live it. We Want to be loving, but at the same time, we're so afraid of what will happen if we are simply unconditionally loving and stop trying to operate everything.
Baby Thank You Card Wording

We joke about being operate freaks, but we have all been raised in a culture that teaches us that "constructive criticism" is the way to help habitancy enhance themselves. On the other hand, what I know as a life coach and spiritual mentor who has spent thousands of hours working with people, is that nobody likes to be told how to live and what to do. And all of my metaphysical studies have emphasized the importance of reaching for love, over and over and over again.
So how do we align ourselves more fully with the deepest desire of our human hearts to simply love?
Every one of us has a very real need for what expert therapist, the late Carl Rogers called "unconditional obvious regard". The Buddhists call it "unconditional friendliness" toward oneself and others.... And we thrive on it. It is music to our souls. And it is difficult for us to truly blossom into who we are meant to be without it.
We reach for it in so many ways. Every time we reach for anything in the hopes that it will make us feel good, we are reaching to fill that primal need to know our own goodness and worth. As the song says, "ain't nothin' like the real thing, baby!" because nothing else will ever fill that space.
Why is it so hard to come by? The sass to that interrogate lies in the word 'conditional'. You see, we seem to have a thing about deservingness.
How can we just love and praise and offer this obvious regard, just because someone is on the planet? Don't they have to have done something, or be something, to deserve it, to earn it? We really feel uncomfortable gift it freely, afraid that in the gift of it, we are giving permission to be 'less than acceptable'. We couldn't be more wrong!
It is in the very gift of what we feel is not deserved or earned, that we affirm the worth of the someone to whom we offer it. It is in the unconditional gift that we are saying "I see the essence of you. And you are good. Period."
We are longing to hear this because we go for what seems like forever without hearing it or feeling it from the world nearby us---or often, even from ourselves.
When we begin to shift into this way of viewing and mental about others, we really begin to 'see' and perceive directly, their goodness, and inevitably, our own in a way we hadn't previously-because We Intend To See It. What a qualified intention to hold!
It is as if we are seeing with new eyes: the eyes of the heart. The heart doesn't care about bad moods, dirty clothes on the floor, not enough money, a bad report card. The heart sees straight through all that, to the considerable goodness of the loved one. The heart knows that love is love, no matter what. And the heart rejoices in it!
It thrills the heart to ultimately be free to simply love without reservation. The judging ego will challenge us every step of the way on this path of love with approval/disapproval thoughts and fear thoughts, but the heart is constant and once open, and will keep reminding us of its nature, which is simply to love. That's what the heart does.
And we, ourselves, will feel so good, so happy, remembering the wonderful, caring man we first fell in love with, or the sweet innocent child we first held, or the 'feels like home' best friend we met years ago. We will allow that perception to grow and be held more constantly inside of us because it just feels so good.
It feels better than anything else to love. It raises our vibration like nothing else can. And that is when association Magic begins to happen. The magic is that we begin to see how our loved ones resonate and bloom and flourish in the nearnessy of our unconditional love. Nourished by the words, and the sense, and the feeling of being loved, valued, appreciated, no matter what, the spirit is free to soar toward joy and association and the True Self.
Who among us does not soften at the plan of being accepted unconditionally in spite of our flaws-at the perceive of being witnessed with such sweetness? The longing is so deep and so core, that when it is filled, we can then really begin to have moments of living in the authentic awareness that we are totally and unconditionally loved.
We then no longer need to be numb. We no longer need to shut others out. We no longer need to allow the 'scared-it's-never-enough' ego to run our lives and our relationships. We no longer need to deny our true nature.
The tasty paradox is that as we apply the magic of love to all of our relationships, our loved ones really become more open to the polite opinions we offer that may be helpful to them as they navigate their lives. As we become more open and more loving with ourselves and with them, we ultimately become more hearable because what we are expressing is not arising from fear and the implication that something is 'wrong' that drove our past suggestions and opinions. We are able to hold it all much more lightly since love and trust really do go hand-in-hand.
The other thing that is so prominent to acknowledge, is that once we stop the flow of constructive annotation and instead, begin to listen, we will hear our loved ones telling us exactly what they need from us: just believe in me, please trust me, I just want us to get along, I only want to be close to you, please just love me straight through this difficult time, tell me I'm a splendid person.
The willingness to do just that is a pivotal step to take in manufacture love the centerpiece of our relationships. And then, the very real perceive of how splendid it feels to allow love to flow will guide us the rest of the way as we ultimately get relax into doing our Real job-the one we were born to do.
