This is one reason being as fear is a needed experience, as BEING the LOVE we are, we remember…

In fear out of the ego’s insecurity we will try to make people happy because we want everyone to like us (by the way this is not a realistic thing to want) – which may feel like loving empathy, but in truth is narcissism.

As you are not really wanting for the others happiness first, but selfishly just your own – which you will not from this vain way of being find.

While as LOVE, you will want for others happiness, only because “you” truly from a state of pure empathy, their happiness – which due to the fact that you gave without expectation of getting, your own happiness you will get.

But I also observe that once one has grown beyond their fear, insecurity and narcissism, the experience of wanting to please even though for selfish reasons, will have served them well, as they move to being LOVE, acting unselfishly – for they will have honed the skills needed to be a selfless giver.

So even when immersed in our frightened shadow self, we are receiving the lessons needed to help us shine when we emerge to the light of our LOVE.

She knew she had only one purpose now and that was to remind all with ears that could listen and eyes that can see, they must now let go and remember it was they that had manifested this illusion of forgetting the LOVE they really are. In order that they could have the experience of being separate from their divine selves, believing that it would expand their consciousness further than the infinite it already was. This was a grave delusion, a tragic error in judgement, for there was nothing to experience or learn in this story, but fear and suffering. And if now they did not wake up they would suffer beyond all imagining, as the final chapter of this dead end, nightmare tale unfolded. “Wake, wake now,” she screamed. “You are not this, you are LOVE. You scripted this play.”, begging she pleaded. “Wake now, please, for I can not a moment longer see you in such needless agony, my beloved, lovers, that are LOVE. I do not wish to leave you behind.”, tears streaming she cried.

“WE ALREADY HAVE everything we need. There is no need for self-improvement. All these trips that we lay on ourselves—the heavy-duty fearing that we’re bad and hoping that we’re good, the identities that we so dearly cling to, the rage, the jealousy and the addictions of all kinds—never touch our basic wealth. They are like clouds that temporarily block the sun. But all the time our warmth and brilliance are right here. This is who we really are. We are one blink of an eye away from being fully awake.” ~ Pema Chödrön, Start Where You Are: A Guide to Compassionate Living

The only way to “win” this game we have manifested, whose rules require forgetting the LOVE we are, is to chose to remember and stop playing…

just LOVE…

Stop looking for yourself, you are yourself, just accept it
Stop looking for LOVE, you are LOVE, just accept it
You will never find that which you already are
Stop looking, just LOVE, just accept…
