"Loving attention" I love it!!

What is love outside of unconditional open hearted attention? I think all our definition of love outside of true love is the ways we learned how we could the connection we so desperately want.

I wrote this tweet a while ago after one of my meditation session, it is fun reading your post that also rings so true to what I have been hearing when I wholeheartedly listen.

"True love has nothing attached, it is unconditional, it is empty.

Every story leaves us astray, pining for something not holy or true.

True love is just being here now, listening wholeheartedly, sharing the present."

It truly feels like that is the case, all the self directed anger, all the critical voices in my head, when I listen to them fully non-judgmentally there is so much love there. Love is so simple, yet so complex.
