Fear is what stands in the way of opening out hearts to love. Love is the choice of the brave, who wish to heal their fears. When we let our fear blend with our love, as often happens, it creates a painful pollution that derails the path of love and affects the way we receive and experience it. Let fear find its own path to healing and love its own path to fulfilment. Remember, when you are most fearful in your experience of love, that there is no antidote for love but to love more. You cannot turn love off ; you must let it follow itw own course. You must have faith in your love, to know love without having questions, to take a risk. To love in this brave way is to cut your attachments to fear.
When we are wounded in love, it often arouses our fear. Always try to feel affection for the heart that hurts you, and not to wound the heart that loves you. Sometimes this can be the same heart, and in that dwells a paradox: to love makes us vulnerable, yet it is a blessing to have the courage to trust this vulnerable state. For in this state a great purity and inner clarity is forged-a quality so indestructible that you will always be in the place of love infused with clarity. For in this vulnerability you are always protected by the power of the innocence that comes from this state of consciousness.
When you have finally conquered your fears and healed every vestige of them, then you enter into a state of normality, so in healing fear, you heal your life.
Always remember that there is one thing greater than fear, and that is love. Allow the love within you to conquer your fear.
