Love this....

Listening to Tape 3 tonight.

1. In an atmosphere of being accepted and not being frightened - a person can show all of his qualities - good and bad
2. this is good - so that they can see themselves and improve them
3. "In a relationship If you are not growing, evolve, be alive and creative in a relationship - love is missing."
4. It is impossible to grow without pain. Children need pain to grow - "familiarize your children with hardship"
5. How do we love a plant? Do we put it in a crystal frame and tell it we love it over and over? If we do that it will die. It needs water to grow, this is how we show love to a plant. We give it the wind, we prune it, we help our plants, children to grow.
6. In a relationship we have to have pain to grow - the pain of unity, the pain of loss, of rejection, disappointment, the pain of self realization that we are not as gorgeous and great as we think we are or we are different than we think we are. That is painful to realize. Becoming aware of ourselves we get rid of our vain imaginations and idle fancies. We find that we are noble, magnificent and gorgeous but in a different spiritual way.

Growth is painful.
Love is painful.

If we are constantly

Love is Heaven's Kindly LIght. The Holy Spirit
Love is the Cause of God's Revelation unto Man.
The Vital Bond Inherent ....in the reality of all things.
