Unconditional Love and Soul Families

When you love someone regardless of their feelings for you and regardless of what they choose to do with their life, you have taken the step towards unconditional love. Think about how many times you have told someone, “I love you no matter what, I just want you to be happy.” You think you are showing unconditional love. However, as soon as you say, “I just want you to be happy” you put conditions on your love.

You must be able to say, “I love you not matter what, whether you are happy or sad, rich or poor, like me or hate me. I simply love you.” Being attached to their reactions to you causes you to step back into control, thereby getting off the track of unconditional love.

This is hardest to do with family. We think we know what is best for them and try to control them by telling them we just want them to be happy. Instead, just love them with no judgments on the path they choose to walk. It is their journey and their lesson. Why would you want to take that from them?

Speaking of family, they may choose not to love you in the same way. Allow them that space and then perhaps you may find it is healthier for you to put some distance between them and you. After all you chose to have them as your blood family to learn lessons of life.

The exciting part of life right now is that your soul family is gathering! Those you have been with in other lifetimes and done much healing and spiritual work are beginning to find you. You will feel closer to them than any blood related ties. Remember with them also to show this beautiful unconditional love. This will make your connection stronger as you unite on a mission of service to mankind.

Don’t forget to keep the balance in all things. Laugh and enjoy your life experiences. Your biggest ‘job’ here is the pursuit of happiness and adventure with its own unique perspective.

VENTING TO A FRIEND

Have you ever had a friend who is always giving you advice every time you vent to them about a situation? You want to ask them not to say anything, but know they have your best interest at heart. But do they?

Unconditional Love is the toughest thing to actually do. When someone loves you unconditionally, they let you vent, with no judgments attached. They don’t give you unasked for advice. Even when you ask, they usually ask the question back to you.

They know the situation you are in is about your growth. It is not about how they can live their life vicariously through yours. It is not about them being in control and making the decisions for you.

It is about you learning and growing in a difficult circumstance you have placed yourself in. You need real love from them…Unconditional Love.

Part of the lesson here may be gently teaching them how to love unconditionally.

Try this: preface your venting by saying something like, “I just need to vent right now. I know it seems like I keep re-hashing the same thing over and over again. But this is the way I need to work through it. Thank you for loving me unconditionally, not judging me, getting frustrated with me or telling me how to run my life. I love you.”

This is the way of peace. Learning and growing together as well as joining together for a common goal. Soul families uniting for the good of all.
