Some Thought on God

I am a spiritual but not a religious person, nor a Christian, but God is a word that has meaning for me. For me, God means good. God means love. I believe in God, not as an entity, but as a concept, a manifestation of love; and I believe in love.

I used to fight for love. That’s strange, because love is free. I also used to look for love in other people, not only wanting them to love me, but also wanting them to let me love them, and often they didn’t. If you don’t feel loveable, if you don’t love yourself, then no amount of love will get in. You might accept adoration, but that won’t FEEL like love. You will go on craving.

So all healthy relationships start with loving yourself, letting God in, letting yourself in. For we all have a spark of divinity in us and when we accept and love our own divinity, we will be able to relate with the divinity in others.
