From the author: The article was published on the official website of Anastasia Zatsepina - My dear friends! Today I want to talk to you about the most important and significant topic in the life of any person - LOVE! Or rather, I am opening a series of articles on this topic. I think this topic is very relevant in the modern world, because with its fast pace of life, people sometimes miss the most valuable thing that is given to a person - to love! And the first thing that should be said is what I mean by the word “love”. Love is the energy of life. To love means to truly live. And here I don’t mean love for a man or a woman, but love as an opportunity to be yourself, about the love that comes from the depths of the soul, from the very essence of a person. Love can manifest itself in completely different feelings and emotions. Even such as pain, hatred, resentment are also manifestations of love (I will talk more about this in the next article). So, let's figure out what it means to “truly love.” Here I will allow myself to give the following image: love is like a warm flowing light that comes from within a person and spreads throughout the body with warmth, filling and illuminating everything around. It is true love that makes a person completely happy, regardless of external circumstances. And a person is born with the absolute ability to truly love. Remember a small child and his unconditional love for the whole world in the person of his mother. What then prevents us from truly loving in adulthood? Our attitudes can interfere with the free flow of love, but they act through fear. For example, once in our lives there was a situation when the manifestation of love was not accepted by society (for example, in a family), i.e. we suffered mental trauma: we felt rejected, betrayed, humiliated, etc. This caused pain. And so that this pain does not happen again, some kind of setting was given to comply with the rules in this situation. This is how fear appeared - a protector from pain and a blocker of love. Something like this is how we ourselves, for various reasons, completely without realizing it, block the movement of our love. In order for you to be able to determine what kind of love is in your life now, I offer a comparative table of manifestations of true love and love out of fear: Love out of fear - getting into someone else's space and allowing others to rule in theirs; criticizing yourself and others; controlling yourself and others ;make your own decisions and decisions for another person without specifying the real need to give, hoping to receive in return, consider that you are responsible for the happiness of another and believe that others are responsible for yours. True love, respect your space and the space of another person; Give yourself and the other the right to have your own needs, attitudes, limitations, desires, fears and weaknesses; Direct and orient without expectations; give with pleasure, do not expect anything in return; accept and state, even if I do not agree and do not understand with my mind. Using this table, you can use the example of specific relationships in your life , for example, with your spouse, child, or your parents, check how you love - truly or out of fear. If the result of the test is love out of fear, and you want to love truly, without barriers, then you should further realize what attitudes are behind this fear, what exactly this fear “protects” you from. And thus, step by step, freeing yourself from unnecessary attitudes and fears, you will be able to unleash the energy of your life and love sincerely and freely, filling your life with it!---------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------- PS If it’s difficult for you on your own to understand your fears and free your true love, then I invite you to a consultation with me. I will help you bring joy and happiness back into your life.!
