When we open ourselves up to love, we open ourselves up to pain and loss, but the loss of the love is what we will grieve, so we shouldn't resist that vulnerability. Embracing love's impermanence will deepen our experience with it.
“love is not permanently gifted, it is loaned.” - James Sexton
“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” - Rumi
