Love – The Gift of Peace<\/span><\/strong>
\nby Peter Russell<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Love is not something you do,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Love is a way of being.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

And more than that.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It is simply being,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Being with another person,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

however they may be.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Holding no judgments,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

having no agendas,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

No desire to control,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

No need to prove your love,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

No intrusion upon their soul.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Nothing but a total acceptance of their being,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Born of your acceptance of yours.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Unconditional love is not unconditional approval<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

of another\u2019s actions, irrespective of their effects<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

upon others. It is unconditional love of the being<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

behind the action. It does not depend upon how<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

a person thinks, feels, or behaves. It does not<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

pause to assess whether or not another is worthy<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

of affection. It recognizes that beneath all our<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

various appearances and activities we all want to<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

feel loved. In this we are all united.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Unconditional love recognizes that we are all to some<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

extent, caught in the belief that our inner satisfaction<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

is determined by what goes on around us. We all feel the<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

need for security, control, recognition, approval, and<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

stimulus to varying degrees, we all feel threatened from<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

time to time by things that seem to stand in the way of<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

our fulfillment; and we can all make mistakes.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Love & Light,
