Abandonment. What does this mean? In your concept it means that another has left you—that they no longer need nor want you. The very reading of these words brings pain to your heart. All humans want to be needed, wanted, and loved. We wish you to know that when one human leaves another, it is merely through the physical presence. Once joined in love, you are always connected. It is your human attachments which do cause you pain. You cling tightly to others, often out of fear and not true love. If you were to let go of your fears and attachments, you could look inside and there find all the love you need. Feeling secure in your Self as the Source of love, all human beings could walk away from you and you would still be content, knowing that there is truly no separation.
When you cease clinging, let go of attachment, and allow love to simply flow, then you are truly free.
