When Love Hurts Part 2: When It Hurts To Stay

To Love and to be loved is the key to all happiness… agree?

Then why is everyone suffering in love? Why is love such a struggle?

I think it begins with the mere definition of love? What is love?

I’ve had many people define love as a feeling and a state of being. Some have even said that love is an act. But I’ve learned something. Love is not just a feeling or a thought. Love is the essence of whom we really are. It is much more than just an emotion.

While most of us are struggling to “find” love, we are actually missing out on our purpose, which is to be the most loving person we can be – to ourselves and the rest of the world.

Which is why we are asked to practice forgiveness when someone hurts or betrays us. Because this is what our soul is taught to do, way before it got inside of us.

Remember, in my last article I spoke about Soul Contracts? It’s time to unpack this a little more…

Soul Contracts are connections we make with other souls (Beings) which are meant to bring us growth and healing from the past. Sometimes, we connect with other souls because we have a “Karmic Debt” to settle with them.

Soul Contacts can also be considered as agreements we made with other souls before we were born, and established a blueprint of how we wanted to live our current life – the experiences we wanted to have, the careers we wished to hold… and the relationships we wanted to have.

Would it then be right to say that YOU yourself have chosen those difficult, unruly, disappointing people to come and hurt you in this lifetime? Without a thought, the answer is yes. But the question arises, why?

Why are some of us stuck in relationships that take away our power. Or bring us down, or mistreat us.

Let’s find out in my next article.
