Love Is The Only Thing You Can Create In Life That Is Eternal

In life, one of the strongest urges we have is to create.

For some people, the very act of creation is the driving and motivating force of their life.

For others, the creative urge is focused on creating something lasting. Indeed, the urge to create fuels a great deal of life, in the arts, in business, with families across all cultures and communities.

This urge to create has as many expressions as there are people. For some, the very act of creating something is enough. They are satisfied by the appearance of their creativity and the experience created or the product designed meets their needs. For others they long for something that is lasting, something that exists after their life has passed.

Not Much Lasts the Passage of Time

Many long to see the result of their creativity live beyond their material life. Architects who build and have built grand structures may feel they have captured eternity in their creations. Truly some buildings last a very long time. The nature of the material world is such that eventually, even the most significant accomplishments of human creativity crumble or fade from the attention of others.

When we consider the nature of the material world, we are all aware that nothing ever built and nothing was ever written that lasts forever. Civilizations rise and fall all ravaged and ultimately destroyed by the passage of time.

The urge to create is continuously frustrated by the reality about the human life experience not being everlasting.

This awareness of the temporal nature of life and the impermanence of mankind’s endeavors can provide either motivation and inspiration or can cause you frustration.

I write a great deal in the hope that the wisdom I have gathered in my life can make life easier and more successful for others. As I write, I have available the understanding of others that I can draw upon, learn from and even quote, however I know that the passage of time and the evolution of civilization will erode the relevance of my words. No matter how far they eventually reach, they are temporal and will be vulnerable to the passage of time.

This awareness leads me to meditate and ponder on what we, as human beings, can do that is not subject to the ravages of time. It drives me to consider what I can do in my life that can last beyond my life? I know my life will end one day. But I also know on a deep and profound level that I am more than my body.

I am a spiritual being living and learning through a human body and human life experience for a purpose. I am created as a co-creator with the Creator to evolve my consciousness as an integral part of life that is eternal.

The Soul & Love

This co-creative role with the Creator is not unique to me. It is a miracle and magic of the human experience for all. It is why of all the creations of life on this planet, a human being is a dual being residing in a temporal and material body while imbued with a spark of Divinity that is eternal, the Soul. It is to the immortal part of our being we must look to consider what we can create in life that is eternal.

The lessons we learn in our lives that impact our consciousness are lessons that we learn in our Soul. They are the lessons we bring with us when our Soul draws us to the experience of life again. No life experience is wasted when we learn it’s lesson in our consciousness.

I believe our Soul is eternal, and our consciousness is infinite. When Divine Will and Divine Wisdom determines the evolution of the collective human consciousness need you, both what you have to give and what you need to learn, as a Soul, it is then that a mysterious process of creation begins to create your next life adventure and life experience.

Although this is sometimes called reincarnation, I believe that word is often misunderstood by large parts of humanity. I often refer to it as God’s recycling plan and the Soul’s lesson plan. The eternal nature of the Soul embodies a continuity of consciousness that extends beyond this specific life experience. Ponder on this!

It makes sense that with all there is to be known about the nature of eternal life, merged with physical being that is the human experience, that there is an endless myriad of life situations and circumstances that need to be known for your Soul and eternally evolving consciousness to learn, grow and thrive.

As I have lived this life what I have gained from the Ageless Wisdom of awareness and understanding about the meaning and purpose of life, I have concluded that the most important thing I have learned is to Love.

The Failure To Love

As I look over my life experiences as one tends to do as you age, I have seen so many times that I failed to Love and that breaks my heart.

I have made countless little failures and significant, significant failures. Around those failures are the need to forgive both the person I failed to love fully and to forgive myself.

Selfishness and ego are the primary factors that have caused those failures. Equally persistent are my fears. Often what I have not said is as much to blame as what I have said. It is not always easy to love, or to love another, or to love yourself. This task of learning to love can be challenging and pervasive.

Love Is an Act of My Soul

Love is something I frequently write about and teach about, but I am still open to learning about it.

The most significant thing I have learned is that love is an act of my Soul.

When I have truly loved, selfish desire and the need to be loved disappears. I am left with a joy that is just knowing the beloved is sufficient. I did not require them to be a certain way or to do a specific thing. Even if I was no longer in their life or they were no longer in mine, the love endures and is eternal. It is free from both conditions and expectations. My desire is only for what is right and good for them.

Touching that level of relationship that I have learned is love made me realize the truth of the phrase “love never ends.” By loving, the temporal nature of life dissolves, and I am transported into the eternal nature of my being, my Soul.

The bond of love is a bond that exists Soul-to-Soul and is eternal. Knowing this and having learned this about love is a great comfort to me when someone I love leaves their body behind. Knowing this also comforts me when life circumstance creates permanent separations from those I have loved and lost track of.

True Love

By love, I refer to a state of consciousness that is beyond emotions, desire, and need that is aware of the essential nature of another and accepts and honors them without conditions or expectations, wanting for them only what supports and enhances their life without consideration of yourself.
– Genevieve Gerard

This love opens you to the part of your nature that is timeless and eternal. It is from that timeless and eternal aspect of your being, your Soul, that you are able to touch the endless element of another and create a bond that connects you and reconnects you through the continuity of consciousness.

Have you ever connected in this life with some people that you seem to have known before, even before you met them, that you trust before they have proved themselves trustworthy? You may not be able to understand these connections, but you recognize them as the extraordinary experience that they are. These relationships come with a recognition that something distinctive is happening.

The Laws of Karma draw us to those with whom we have forged a bond of love throughout our lives, allowing us to explore and manifest the many ways that love can be expressed and demonstrated throughout life.

So just remind yourself, from a friend to a loved one, love created forms a bond that reconnects and restores us to those we have loved throughout time and space.

Love is ‘Eternal’ for there is no End or Beginning
― Syed Sharukh

This continuity of consciousness and love that evolves and learns and grows and creates in human form for a while and then frees itself of that form is what life is ultimately about. Always strive for love!

These are concepts about a continuity of consciousness that holds your fundamental sense of identity not in your body, your ego or your personality, but rather in the essence of your Divine spark, your Soul. These concepts are different and require expanding your mind and considering lofty concepts of the Spiritual realm and some modification of your understanding about the physical life you see all around you.

It is in learning to love, and most significantly accepting the transcendent and empowering energy of love into your life that your consciousness expands and opens to the enlightened awareness that life is greater than what you can see through your material senses. The whole universe, indeed, heaven and earth are greater and more diverse than you can imagine at this turn of the wheel of life you are experiencing.

I ask that you consider these concepts although they may be completely foreign or mysterious to you and seek within yourself the thrum of recognition that TRUTH always brings and then with a calm mind and an open heart, Ponder On This.

Namaste,

Genevieve
