LOVE

© JVieira
Do I know how to love?
May be we can’t because we are frightened of love. Maybe we are all frightened of relationships. May be it’s easier to do things rather than to accept love and give to love. We are frightened to enter into a relationship of love because we will become vulnerable. I will have to open up my heart to you. It’s easier to do things than enter into a relationship of love. As soon as we enter into a relationship of love, we become vulnerable and we can be hurt. Our human hearts are very vulnerable. We’ve all experienced love, and maybe we’ve all experienced rejection. Or rather we’ve entered into relationships of love and we’ve been wounded because we’ve been disappointed and disillusioned.
Jean Vanier in “From Curse to Blessing”
