Love Your Neighbor, As You Would Love Yourself

Now, I wouldn’t say this statement is always interpreted or understood in the essence and depth it pertains. “Your neighbor” is any other person, being, creature of the same light as you. It could literally be your neighbor, just as much as it could be that lady at the counter ringing up your groceries, or the car guards helping you make it out the parking lot, and passersby rushing and talking amongst themselves (or really loudly to try gain recognition), so consumed by their external approach that only rarely it may seem there are those who just vibrate on the same wave length as you. You may not have a personal encounter with them, they may just be in their own totality of “the zone” and that itself reveals itself to you because they are open and in the now- the most divine state that any existing specimen can endure. A living,breathing lesson that gets your attention; to show you, and teach you, something deeply profound and powerful. This lesson, in turn, is the way of the cosmos. How the stars are revealing to you those reflections and projections of yourself. When one denies this or chooses to steer away from the LOVE you are able to cast out among the masses, then we deny our true purpose… Be open. Clear your mind. Be present. Approach and speak with grace and love. Because, after all, this statement does not mean “To love your neighbor the same way as you would love yourself”, but surely “To love your neighbor as you would then be loving yourself too.”
