So, why not ‘Being in Love’ instead of ‘Falling in Love’?? Falling in love there is a chance you may also fall out. Whatever you fear, makes you feel shy, or anxious in any way, has also the capacity to strengthen you, make you feel accomplished and joyful. It’s all in your mental approach.
Denial of the fear, trying to escape how you feel, distracting yourself while ignoring the signs. All this closes your mind, makes you stubborn, does not help you feel better, and so love becomes a distant thing you chase.
So, what do you do?? You become your own detective. You stay with yourself, observe yourself, what thoughts you have and how they come and go. You become aware of the self-pity you carry, the fear, the excitement, and all the anxiety (good or bad).
You don’t do anything about it. Just be present in the details. Soon, just by observing, you’ll find out how silly and ridiculous all your doubts and fears were. You’ll figure out that you have created this pessimistic world in your mind.
And when you become aware then, your mind expands; and you love more, and feel more capable, and see your true value. And now you are finally becoming awake for the 1st time. And, as you know yourself like this, you start understanding people, the world, and why things happen the way they happen.
