The Bond of Love




"The real story comes from a love source
that cannot be understood with intellect, but
known only as a person is known."
Coleman Barks

There are times we may gravitate towards superficial relationships to avoid emotional connection or risk of suffering.  A boundary such as this may distance us, but it also prevents the deeper levels of exchange to occur.  

It is when we become vulnerable with one other person, that we see the impact of drama, recoil, healing and love.  It is when we have witnessed the damage to the heart that we can truly appreciate the expansive joy of healing.

Once we are familiar with patterns different than our own,  we begin to understand the diversity of every situation and the range of results.  When we take time to observe and not judge others, we have room to sink into the deeper wisdom of the spiritual and physical aspects of life.  Intellect alone does not qualify us to understand the depths and expansions of the bond of love.
