Making Love to the Universe

To look deeply into our own feelings and to see past our defense mechanisms is to reach into our own psyches and attempt to make contact with the unintegrated parts of ourselves.

When we take the life energy time to fully delve into our own inner-being, we find that most of what we think of as thinking, believing, faith, and understanding is merely rote memory used as a defense against really looking at who we are: our true values, our insensitivities, our abuses, our insincerities, our insecurities, and our fears of disclosure.

Really taking a look at the truth of ourselves takes courage and an understanding that we might not like what we see; it takes allowing ourselves to become vulnerable and open.

This can only really ultimately be done as we drop our false modesties, our moral outrage, our sense of superiority, our self-righteous, and self-serving egoisms.

The cold hard fact of unconditional love is that it does not care what we have done, what we think, what our senses of right and wrong are, or what we think is really going on in the world.

Unconditional love is something that has no edges, bars no persons, holds no grudges, sees no boundaries, allows no excuses, assesses no condemnation, creates no illusions, senses no doubt, includes all beings, loves without reason of needing to love, regardless of status, beliefs, actions, or our sense of shame or guilt over anything at all on any plane.

The organization then of the universe is set up on a simple structural paradigm: We cannot fully love someone that we are condemning or judging, including ourselves.

Once we have fully integrated ourselves, we will stop being annoyed with ourselves and others, become more than merely tolerant, and actually love ourselves and everyone else since we have finally come to understand that we all have insecurities and our holding someone else emotionally hostage for not meeting a standard that we ourselves are incapable of meeting is merely the excuse that we use for not loving them, as a projection of our not really ultimately loving ourselves.  

Unconditional love is not a goal or a standard or a dream; it's the state of existence. We are all unconditionally loved, and the universe is the peep hole through which we observe what we will.  You see what you want and are, and I see what I want and am. I see you as absolutely lovely and perfect, not for what you do or have or can give me or can do for me, but for who you are.  I am incomplete if I objectify you, and then you are everything that I am not, but then that still makes you just like me.

In the final analysis, we are each other, and for me to reject you is for me to reject myself.  Looking inwardly, I found my ability to love locked inside of my insecurities over my faults and fear of disclosure; letting myself be observed as I am, I found that who I am is you, and I have fallen in love all over again with being alive because you know me so well and love me anyways.  Loving you is loving myself in the best possible way.  

Look at the joy you bring into my life, the imagination, the density of life, the absolutely incredible youness of it all, and me in you, through my eyes, is unconditional.  And this is why we are all that is when I look inside, no me, no you, just us.
