To me there’s only one rule in life that allows one to live life to the fullest and this rule is, you must do the things that puts you in alignment with love. If this rule isn’t followed it will be difficult to live a fulfilling life and by fulfilling I mean being an instrument of love. This isn’t done by doing certain things, it‘s actually done by not doing certain things which in turn allows for this to occur; this means you can’t love anymore than what’s in your heart. Doing endless goods deeds will not add one iota of love to your heart unless the good deeds are done from the base of the love in your heart; a heart that’s opened allows your love to grow. This is not the conventional way of approaching life, but it is the way I have found that works the best for putting me in alignment with love.
The major issue with this is through the Conditioned Mind most have learned to do things to self serve. When we do this we have no time to think of others because we are too busy thinking about ourselves. Most of life is unconsciously spent thinking of and finding way to satisfy ourself. Even if you’re on a journey to help others, there has to be an awareness of the attachment that the self serving mind conjures up to make it about satisfying your self. There’s a very fine line between the self serving mind and the love serving mind, but with practice you can see the difference and stop the one that doesn’t really benefit your life or the life of others. If all you’re thinking about is doing things that are strictly a benefit to yourself there won’t be any room to think about being a benefit to others and if this is the rule that you‘re living by, you will not be doing the things necessary to put you in alignment with love and life will not be lived to the fullest or be as fulfilling as it could and should be…
