A message to The Reader,

When we talk about love, generally, what comes to mind for you?

It can be such a difficult terminology to express from a personal point of view, especially as love “spoken” and love “experienced” are divergent when it comes to disclosing our feelings to comparing that with deliberate action…

I’m not saying either are any less impacting or intricate, but when we try to “visualise” love; would you agree that we have an image in our heads of how loving intentions are enacted?

Don’t we sometimes close ourselves off from its diverse magnitude and, worse still, sometimes are fearful to accept love, of any kind, when we’re apprehensive under it’s vulnerable (yet beautiful!) force?

Well, only when we’re deliberate with our thoughts and sincere with our actions, do we understand how it’s truly faulty to miss out on this incredibly amazing feeling (experience/s) in our lives…
But, aside from my “preaching theories,” I bring up the concept of love – of all light to intense ranges – because it’s taken offensive conflict and necessary challenges for me to accept that love cannot experientially (or collectively) survive without fear as its dual partner!

For so far into my lifetime (23 years), it’s been a hard, and yet a rewarding, realization to know that these pairs have always taught me so much that was necessary along my on-going journey and in respect of other people alongside theirs.

Not always were these life lessons “comfortable,” but rather they were tools of survival acting on itself – never from bad intentions but not always with the ideal results one would expect for themselves.
It’s taken my harsh and yet responsible steps of growth into adulthood to know that there is never a winner between love and fear. But always the two remain entwined in a person’s lifetime; at least a healthy amount, once we gather the insight into the bigger picture and look outside from our own perspective.


God and balance within the universe, as love and fear together are exactly that, have shown me upon reflecting within these pages that life, as it’s decided to be lived, should only be looked at with gratitude; for we as souls are creators of our own experience. We get to decide whether to act out of love or fear – or both!

Sincerely, Jay.
