Now before you start calling me naive, or airy fairy just pause and listen. In my earlier years I would use shopping, or buying new things as a way to make me happy. I would love the high I would get in the beginning but soon found out after time that it would soon disappear and leave me empty again. When shopping no longer worked I switched to rewarding myself with sweets still looking for the lasting high to no avail and we all know how that turned out. I felt like I was on an eternal search for something but what was it? Many search for it using money, power, sex, drugs, or the search of the perfect partner as a way to fill the void. No other worldly thing will bring you satisfaction. At best it will only bring you temporary relief for minor existential pain. When one attaches love to things that can’t love you back it creates a false God. Don’t get me wrong we can all appreciate a new car but not in the same way love can fill us.
I finally got it one day. I realized that spirituality fills my soul. Love fills my soul. Feeling
connection fills my soul. Being in service to someone fills my soul. All these are real and stem from a feeling inside me that can’t be taken away especially if I have no expectation. When we just stay in the moment and we can be our TRUE self it becomes so natural. That is truly when joy fills our soul. We fill ourselves from the inside out not the other way around. Filling your heart is an inside job and not the responsibility of another person. If we keep filling up our own hearts then there will be more than enough to share with others. So what are you waiting for? Start to fill her up!
