We all talk about love, we hear about love, but very few of us can express it, simply because we have not received that kind of love, during our childhood, which we needed. Our parents did the best they could but if they were not given love or taught how to love, it is very difficult to pass it on. Actually, the only place from which we can really receive the kind of love each one of us needs is from deep within us, from the God source within us. We have this illusion that we love people, when in reality, all we are really doing is holding on to them for our security and comfort. Surrender makes us shiver because we do not want to give up anything, but true love is not only in sacrificing but in not holding onto things possessively. If we can surrender, then we receive back much more than we gave up. This is love. Love is the only emotion that is truly healing.
