🌿 Let’s Begin Here
It’s so deeply human to fear losing those we love. That ache in the heart, the quiet worry that someday they might not be there — it can feel overwhelming. But this fear, tender as it is, also reveals the depth of your love and connection. You are not alone in this feeling. There is a gentle path through this fear, where love can become a source of strength rather than sorrow.
🕉️ Timeless Words
Chapter 12, Verse 15
यस्मान्नोद्विजते लोको लोकान्नोद्विजते च यः ।
हर्षामर्षभयोद्वेगैर्मुक्तो यः स च मे प्रियः ॥
Yasmān nodvijate loko lokān nodvijate ca yaḥ |
Harṣāmarṣabhayodvegair mukto yaḥ sa ca me priyaḥ ||
Translation:
He by whom the world is not agitated and who cannot be agitated by the world, who is freed from joy, envy, fear, and anxiety—he is dear to Me.
Meaning:
Krishna teaches us that true love and peace come when we are steady within ourselves, not shaken by the changes or losses around us. When fear and anxiety do not disturb your heart, your love becomes pure and unshakable.
🪬 Guiding Lights
- Love is a gift that naturally makes us vulnerable, but fear arises when we cling tightly to permanence in an impermanent world.
- Recognize that all relationships flow and change — this is the nature of life, not a failure of love.
- Cultivate inner steadiness through self-awareness; your heart can hold both love and the reality of change.
- Fear lessens when you surrender control and cherish the present moments fully.
- True love embraces freedom — for you and your beloved — without the chains of attachment.
🌊 Inner Dialogues
You may find yourself whispering inside, “What if they leave me? What if I lose them?” These thoughts can feel like shadows clouding your joy. It’s okay to feel this way — your heart is simply trying to protect itself. But remember, fear is often a sign of how much you care, not a reflection of what is to come. Let your heart acknowledge the fear without letting it dominate your love.
📿 What He Would Say...
“My dear friend, do not let fear dim the light of your love. The world is ever-changing, and holding too tightly only causes pain. Trust in the eternal within you both — the soul that is never born, never dies. Love freely, without grasping, and you will find a peace that no loss can touch. I am with you in every breath, steady and unshaken.”
🌱 A Familiar Story
Imagine a student who loves their favorite book — they fear it might get lost or damaged. But the true value is not in the pages themselves, but in the wisdom and joy the book brings inside their heart. Even if the book is gone, the love and lessons remain. Similarly, the love you hold for someone is a treasure inside you that no change or loss can erase.
