WHY IS THE SOUL RESTLESS..WHAT ARE WE SEARCHING FOR....

WHY IS THE SOUL SO RESTLESS

We all seem to go through highs and lows all the time. Not knowing why. Is it excitement we want? Love? Money? Success? Why do we want success? What will we do with it? It gives us a high for a while, but we don’t stop there, do we? No way, we have to get more. It’s like drinking water. Do we drink enough for a whole lifetime? But success is different. It gives us an illusion of rising. Does it make us fall? It does, in a way. We become a slave to it, so we fall, and it gives us many negative traits as well. This is the case with most of us. Ok, a lot of things give us negative traits. So, let’s not make success seem wrong. It’s good. But after becoming successful, why don’t we stop there? We just go on and on and on. It never stops.
What are we trying to fill? One’s ego, greed or just a void? Or all? I think mostly the void. How hungry all of us have become. We have no time or inclination to give love. We only want it for ourselves. We can’t get it from humans (family) because we don’t want to give. So how do we expect it in return. How shallow we have become, expecting love from inanimate and lifeless things? We have stopped valuing love in its true sense. That’s why the energy from success is a never ending thirst. We are running after an illusion. We feel so miserable. We feel that we are not loved enough. But have we just focused on giving? No! We are all conditional. We give, in order to receive. And only that works. Love being unconditional is rubbish. That’s only a fantasy not real. It lives in our mind and storybooks. Maybe even in the movies. Everything is conditional. It’s all about ‘us’. Me, Mine, I. What are we doing? What do we want? Are we that insecure? Can’t we just be pure? Trusting the Universe, that it will provide for us. Just live in the abundance of giving and receiving. Why are we so frozen? Unfreeze and be selfless from our center. What is our center? Our heart. Let’s radiate warmth and love. Pure love. And we will unfreeze. Unfreeze others with our own love. Call it divine or evil, it has a power of its own.
I have never understood whether that’s good or bad. It can change mindsets, people, and everything while it lasts. So why is it so complicated? Love is a power. It’s a force. It transforms everything. Some times the situation remains the same but the understanding or perspective changes. So let us love. Let us stop wondering what it is, and love. Love is a force. No matter how much we write or talk about it, we can never understand it. So just use it like energy. Use love to change our focus, our perspective. Look at life in a deeper way. Why do I run behind all the things that I run behind? What void am I trying to fill? What insecurity am I trying to love and feed with fame? So, is being ambitious wrong; is running behind success wrong? No, it’s the reason which should change.
Love and light
