🌿 You Are Not Alone
My dear friend, it’s so natural to crave reassurance in love. When our hearts are tender and open, the uncertainty can feel like a storm inside. You are not alone in this yearning — many souls walk this path, seeking a gentle touch, a kind word, a sign that they are truly seen and cherished. This desire comes from a deep place of vulnerability, and it is okay to feel it. Let us explore together what the Gita teaches us about this tender dance of attachment and trust.
🕉️ Timeless Words
सर्वधर्मान्परित्यज्य मामेकं शरणं व्रज ।
अहं त्वां सर्वपापेभ्यो मोक्षयिष्यामि मा शुचः ॥
(Chapter 18, Verse 66)
"Abandon all varieties of dharma and just surrender unto Me alone. I will liberate you from all sinful reactions; do not fear."
This verse invites us to release the many fears and doubts that bind us, including those in love. It reminds us that surrender — not clinging — is the true path to peace and freedom. When we seek constant reassurance, it is often the heart’s way of holding on tightly. The Gita encourages us to trust the divine flow, to surrender our fears, and find safety in that surrender.
🪬 Guiding Lights
- Attachment breeds uncertainty: The more we cling to external validation, the more fragile our peace becomes.
- True love is rooted in trust: Love that flows freely without constant demands is stronger and more enduring.
- Surrender softens the heart: Letting go of control opens space for deeper connection and inner calm.
- Self-acceptance is the foundation: When we love ourselves fully, we need less reassurance from others.
- Love is a dance of freedom: Both giving and receiving love without chains or fears blossoms into joy.
🌊 Inner Dialogues
You might be telling yourself, “What if they don’t really love me? What if I’m not enough?” These whispers of doubt can feel overwhelming, stirring anxiety and sadness. It’s okay to feel this way — your heart is simply asking for safety and certainty. But remember, these fears are not the whole truth of your worth or your love. They are shadows that arise when we forget our deeper connection to the divine and to ourselves.
📿 What He Would Say...
“My beloved, why do you seek constant proof of love when love itself is already within you? Like the sun that shines regardless of clouds, your true self is radiant and whole. Trust in that light. When you surrender your fears to Me, you will find a love that does not waver with every moment but flows steady and eternal. You are never alone — I am always near, holding your heart gently.”
🌱 A Familiar Story
Think of a young sapling growing in a garden. It bends in the wind, sometimes trembling, longing for the gardener’s touch. If the gardener clings too tightly, the plant cannot grow strong roots. But if the gardener trusts the soil, the sun, and the rain, the sapling grows tall and resilient. Love is like that gardener’s care — it must balance presence with freedom, reassurance with trust, so both hearts can grow deep and strong.
