The Sense of Longing

The belief that the ‘sense of longing’ is wrong or shameful or bad is what creates a sense of suffering. Acknowledge this sense of longing rather than trying to hide or run from it. Stop pretending it’s not there; stop fearing it. See that there is nothing you have to do to fix it. It can’t be fixed. It can only be seen with total acceptance and love. Sit with it. Be with it. Honour it. Cherish it. Allow it to be seen and heard. Give it your time. Your attention. Just let it be there. There’s nothing wrong with it at all. There is no one producing it. No one’s to blame. It’s not a curse. It’s not a problem to fix. It’s just there if it’s there.
And it’s arising for no one. Simply be the instrument to allow it its expression; to have it be witnessed and honoured. Allow it to be just as it is. This sense of longing demands to have a voice. It demands to be seen and heard without judgement. It demands to be acknowledged. It demands to be recognized and accepted as no-thing appearing as something. It’s only been felt as “a terrible thing gone wrong” for a long time. And now it’s time to see it for what it is. It time to surrender into it and forgive it. Release the beliefs around it. Forgive them all.
Notice that the sense of longing is birthed from heartbreak and the cure for all heartbreak is having it be witnessed and forgiven in love; having it be met with a Whole Heart; with a Pure Heart of unconditional love and understanding. In True Friendship, all is forgiven. All is unified once again. All is well.

I envision all sense of longing to be witnessed by Love and healed in Love.
I envision all of sense of longing to be understood and welcomed…To be given the space to say what it needs to say.
I envision all sense of longing to be heard, validated, allowed, and honoured …in Love.
I envision all sense of longing as healed “because” it’s been seen, heard, validated, allowed and honoured… in Love.
It is done.
The sense of perpetual longing is allowed to exist for as long as it is desired. And when this desire ends, all sense of longing will also end.
The pain of perpetual longing is instantly healed in the moment of its own death; having been seen, heard and fully saturated in and by Love ItSelf.

  1. Desire can be unhealthy, and if you don’t manage your “longing” properly, if you ignore it, if it is painful, or self-destructive, or just plain wrong in the eyes of society, it can wreck you. You can’t live like this in society, at least I can’t.
