Love??

When I stand with a begging bowl and beg "love' from someone, what really do I want? Am I not just looking for approval, validation for who I perceive myself to be ? Say I am pretty, I am smart. Say you like me, love me. In another, I seek myself, my identity. And so it hurts, when that person does not reflect what I want to see. In another's eyes, I seek my love worthiness. When I am love, myself.

People are starving for love, not knowing their heart is a magical kitchen. Open your heart. Open your magical kitchen and refuse to walk around the world begging for love. In your heart is all the love you need. Your heart can create any amount of love, not just for yourself, but for the whole world.
