I think we sometimes try to tell ourselves some things, or even tell others, with the hopes that we, or they may hopefully believe it. This can be a form of manipulation...and that is not what silent love wishes.
What hatred and bitterness you see out there, is the bitter seed that you have swallowed....Speak of love if thou art of love...but true love needs not a word spoken. It is very, very sacred. Be watchful always of true intentions. Ensure the heart is always of pure intent...Love hears every word that goes unsaid.
The most important exercise of all when it comes to Unconditional Love is opening up to loving yourself. That is the most important. Look not upon how you can give another love...Master your own heart first -as though it is independent and mighty...False acts of love will tell you "you need me in order to be sustained and of light"...The kind heart will offer that you Stand up and rise..Because you are love, it is purely fuctional within you...and you are independant...and capable.
