“Your task is not to seek love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it” -Rumi
Life can feel like a never ending search or yearning of that in which we need & desire. From birth, we are constantly crying out, seeking, to have our needs met. How sweet it is to believe that I do not have to search for love, or anything else that I need or desire for that matter. Believing as though I have the challenging task of finding love, a basic human need, feels overwhelming and somewhat daunting. The message that I receive from this quote is that I no longer have to live in that overwhelming belief. I choose to look within and attend to any barriers that I have built against what is freely available to me, love and all it encompasses.
