Ruminating with Rumi
Love without fear is joy. There is joy in you. You are joy. It is your true nature. Learn to love in the world without fear. Be joy to all. Drop desire and expectation. The me of the body does not see joy. It knows fear. Fear taints love in the world. To live in the world without fear is joy. To not live with fear, enter the room within. The deeper you go the more joy is revealed. It awaits your awareness. Maybe you caught whiffs of joy on worldly winds. It swirls in the dust trying to get your attention, but you have eyes that do not see. It is with eyes that see that joy becomes real to you again. Enter joy’s presence within. It is ready to embrace you as its prodigal child. Joy receives all. Bring your awareness into its presence. Sometimes you must enter through a broken heart. From a broken heart, joy spills forth. Find joy in pain and sorrow and you will know peace in all situations. This is love without fear. Love without fear has no attachments.
