**********************
Do you eat more when you're down (aka not allowing yourself to feel Love)? Do you seek out new experiences, new relationships, new distractions instead of stopping, and FEELING?
Remember-
Love is your Name.
Give yourself to your Self.
I Love You
I Am You
Nik
"You do not have to earn Love." - Sharon Salzberg
"Dear God,
I am so afraid to open my clenched fists!
Who will I be when I have nothing left to hold on to?
Who will I be when I stand before you with empty hands?
Please help me to gradually open my hands and to discover that I am not what I have, but what you want to give me." -Henri Nouwen
"Love is my true identity.
Selflessness is my true self.
Love is my true character.
Love is my name." -Thomas Merton
"God has a way of stripping everything that we think we need, and He leaves just Himself to us. It is never an easy thing to be in that situation; one day praising God for His goodness and the next crying out to Him to make Himself known in the storm. When we have rooted ourselves to a safe place, God tends to rip us out of the ground and plant us somewhere new. We may hate it, revile Him for it, and even reject Him for a time. But when we look back, we will see that we needed to be uprooted, to be changed from that place that was slowly killing us.
God is the master gardener, He knows all His plants by name, He delicately removes the bad weeds and waters the good seeds. He does what needs to be done, so that one day we can look back and see the majesty that He was doing. You are being made into a beautiful thing, something that God loves to watch grow. So the next time you are taken out of your comfort zone, know that Christ is slowly making you something great, because He is doing it; and He is the greatest thing." - T.B.LaBerge
"Our hearts must be made resonant.
Look at the birds and the winged creatures, Come here, do not lie in your beds!
There is work that needs to be done at four o'clock.
We must worship our Beloved.
We must know our Father.
We must know our Original Father, our Adi Pida.
We must reach the Light.
We must attain a life of liberation.
We must attain a life without illness.
We must live without troubles.
We must regard other lives as our own.
All the lives must pray to God." -M.R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen, Come to Prayer: The Wake-up Song, pp 6-7.
"If a person is eating more it is a symptom of a certain undercurrent. Food is always a substitute for love. People who don't love, who somehow miss a life of love, start eating more - it is a love-substitute.
When a child is born, his first love and his first food are the same thing - the mother. So there is a deep association between food and love..." -Osho
"According to the science energy comes from food. Look at the potato plant. It draws energy from 'somewhere' to make that potato. But brothers, you go to the store, buy the potato, clean the potato, cook, eat and digest it. Until you become like that potato plant when you know how to draw energy from 'somewhere', you have to continue to go to the store, buy it cook it and eat it - what a wasteful and lengthy process." - Bawa Muhaiyddeann
"Look at you, O madman! Screaming that you are thirsty and dying in a desert, when all around you there is nothing but water!" - Kabir
"In every circumstance, we're looking for real love. We can only find it fully in Him." - @blessedishe via IG
