Deep dives
Finding Love Within Yourself
People often struggle to find love because they seek it externally, particularly in other individuals, rather than looking within themselves. Love cannot be fully appreciated or experienced through the emotions of others; instead, it is something that emerges from one's own capacity to express love. To truly find love, individuals must cultivate an internal space filled with love and be willing to share it with others through acts of kindness and connection. By expressing love, one can create meaningful relationships and deepen their understanding of love's divine essence.
