Don Miguel Ruiz

I found a book called,"The Mastery Of Love".

Here is a passive from it:

When a human is born, the emotional mind, the emotional body, is completely healthy. Maybe around three or four years of age, the first wounds in the emotional body start to appear and get infected with emotional poison. But if you observe children who are two or three years old, if you see how they behave, they are playing all the time. You see them laughing all the time. Their imagination is so powerful, and the way they dream is an adventure of exploration, When something is wrong they react and defend themselves, but then they just let go and turn their attention to the moment again, to play again, to explore and have fun again. They are living in the moment. They are not ashamed of the past; they are not worried about the future. Little children express what they feel, and they are not afraid to love.

This booked is filled with so much enlightening material. It is so true. When we are children. We are so innocent. We are not afraid of what the future brings. We do not feel ashamed of past failures. We have no insecurities. We just smile, laugh and love. How sad that somewhere along the line we lose this innocence. When exactly does it happen. Is it when we first experienced rejections? The first time we felt we were not good enough? The first time our hearts were broken? The first time we felt embarresment?
When did it happen to me? When did my innocence become unpure? I think I still possess some of my childish innocence. I see this in my strong hope that everything will always turn out ok. I see it in the way I am able to forgive and move on. I see it when I realize I am incapable of holding a grudge. I recognize this in the way I have an overwhelming faith and how I hold out for the right time, the right person, the right circumstance.
I love this book and I believe it was meant to cross my path.
