How do you give love unconditionally?

How do you give love unconditionally? What would that really mean? What if it began with the realization that you are already loved unconditionally? That no matter how much failure, rejection, disappointment, or insecurity you feel mired in there’s still something that always loves and accepts you absolutely? That even any pain, confusion, or lies you’ve spread still does nothing to distance you in any way from infinite love? Or could it be in recognizing that everything that is done is done out of love? That everything is about giving, even if it is ultimately about serving one’s ego and causes suffering? Is that kind of needless, selfless giving what true love really is? If you view the whole process of reality as a flow of each part of it giving to another and follow it all the way back to the origin of existence, why give anything at all? Why let anything exist in the first place? Is the answer a purpose, or is it just because it’s possible? Why continue giving o...

What is giving?

What if all you’re here to do is to give love and gratitude unconditionally? What if that giving, despite its apparent selflessness, is actually the most fulfilling thing you can do? Is that the deepest purpose you can find in life? How do you give like that? How do you give beyond your boundaries and what you thought possible? Where does giving begin and how far can it go? What is giving? Loving selflessly? Wanting the very best for something beyond and independent of yourself? Does it have to be an externalization? An expression? Does it have to be selfless?

What do you give to it? Meaning, value, purpose? Does it matter? What if it’s the nexus of self and selflessness since true giving entails contributing the deepest parts of yourself? What is the deepest place you can give from? Is it love or grati...

What is a gift?

What is a gift? Is it something that offers use, value, or meaning in some form? Could it be anything that gives in these ways and others? What is giving? Is there anything that you encounter that doesn’t give in some way? What if you took the time to stop and notice how everything around you gives in the course of a day? What does the sun give you? What does your breath give you? What do your walls give you? What do your hands give you? What do your eyes and ears give you? What do your food and clothes give you? What do these things give, not only conceptually, but experientially in the given moment? What does music give? What do the people closest to you give? What do strangers give? What does each thought and emotion give? What if every experience was interpreted as a gift? What if even all the fears, doubts, frustrations, and disappointments were seen as gifts in some way? What do they give? What opportunities are hidden within them? What does pain and suffering give...

Gratitude and Mortality

Is the purest form of gratitude a complete awareness of mortality? In order to reach the deepest levels of gratitude is it necessary to become conscious that every single experience is ending? That every single sight, sound, and touch is constantly ending? Would it be possible to invert all expectations about life, existence, and appearances so that the only expectation is of non-existence? Of absolute Nothingness? Why should there be anything at all? Does there need to be anything at all? How does needlessness correlate with gratitude? What if you needed nothing, not even to survive? How would your experience of reality change? Could you become conscious that nothing is needed, guaranteed, or taken for granted? That the fact that anything exists at all is a miracle in itself? How could you reach the deepest appreciation for every single moment? Is its capacity in direct relation to your consciousness of mortality/Nothingness? Is it in re-contextualizing the eva...
