Pushing love away

If we slow down enough to be aware of our every movement, we might realised that we are far short of recieving love. A few symptoms that we are not recieving love well is;
1) when someone compliments you, immediately is rejected or say it's nothing at all
2) when someone is showing you concern, you flare up easily at that person instead
3) recieving gifts but feel very unhappy
4) recieving good guidance but ignoring it
5) continuing doing some habits or behavior that you know very well is not conducive to you and your well-being
6) thinking that it's always so "bad-luck" on your side and insisting that it will remain so
7) trying to do everything by yourself without recieving any support from others (in this way, we are closed off from recieving love from others, making ourselves a one man island)
8) complaining and picking on the person when the person does you a favor

All these signs are symptoms that we are pushing love away. Subconsciously we don't actually know HOW to recieve love. 
Most of the times it happens when we are young, when we experienced love, our love is taken away and it was unbearably painful. So, in order not to feel the pain again, we push love away, thinking that this way, we will never have to feel the pain again. But is this really working out for us? Really? We are afraid to feel unloved so we rather not known love at all? 

Once we learn to open ourselves up to the boundless possibilities of love, that we will began to recieve love in all ways. It's like your body is unblocked, and all the love energy gushes in from everywhere. And your surroundings will change along with the change in your subconscious thinking too. 

As one monk puts it, there is nothing call subconscious thinking. It's only a name in the western world. There are multi layers of mind, and some are buried deep within us, which he refer to very subtle thinking. For example, the intention to survive thus we breathe. These are very subtle that we don't normally notice it. Only very deep awareness (meditation in other words that we will be awareness of such intentions). Once it comes out to the surface, it's no longer buried deep inside.

As we began to open ourselves out we will began to recieve love. It's a wonderful feeling to know that there is ready love and support out there waiting for you to be opened up to it. :)
