You Are Love Having a Human Experience: Embracing Creation and Connection

Introduction

Imagine viewing yourself not as someone who must learn how to love, but as love itself—already whole, already radiant, simply choosing to experience and create in human form. This simple yet powerful shift invites us to stop chasing the illusion of “becoming loving” and start inhabiting the truth of what we already are. Love doesn’t need to grow or learn; it wants only to experience and create—as love.

In this post, I invite you to explore what it means to see yourself in this way. Consider it either an ontological truth or a guiding metaphor, and notice how this perspective can illuminate every aspect of your life, including your interactions with those in your circles of influence, both familiar and brand new.

Why This Perspective Matters

We often think of love as a skill we must develop or a journey we must undertake. But when you recognize yourself as love, you step into a different paradigm. Rather than feeling incomplete, you understand that your core essence is already whole. It changes the foundation of your self-talk, your emotional landscape, and ultimately your day-to-day experiences.

  • Self-Acceptance: No need to “achieve” love when you are love.

  • Creator Mindset: You realize that your purpose involves creative expression.

  • Open-Hearted Interactions: You naturally bring more compassion into relationships.

Love in Action: Creation and Connection

What does it look like to live from the viewpoint that you are love itself?

  1. Spontaneous Creative Flow:
    Since love desires to create, you might find yourself drawn to new forms of self-expression—writing, music, art, or projects at work that align with your values. This creative flow isn’t about proving anything; it’s simply about letting love move through you.

  2. Ever-Evolving Circles of Influence:
    Each day, we’re in contact with people—friends, family, clients, colleagues, or strangers at the grocery store. When you remember that you are love, every encounter becomes an opportunity to share warmth and curiosity. This approach expands your circle of influence effortlessly, generating a ripple effect of genuine kindness wherever you go.

  3. Intimacy in New Meetings:
    Meeting someone new can be both exciting and intimidating. Yet, if you root yourself in the knowledge that you are already love, you meet others without a guarded heart. Your openness can invite deeper, more authentic connections right from the start.

  4. Relationships as Mirrors:
    Seeing yourself as love doesn’t mean you’re immune to disagreements or frustrations. However, conflicts become opportunities to witness how love can manifest through honest conversation and empathy. Recognize that each interaction—positive or negative—is a mirror reflecting parts of your own humanity.

Practical Ways to Embody This View

  1. Morning Intentions:
    Upon waking, set a clear intention: I am love here to experience and create. This sets a compassionate tone for the day.

  2. Mindful Movement:
    Whether it’s yoga, a walk, or any other exercise, move with the awareness that you are an expression of love. Let your body be a vehicle for creative energy.

  3. Gentle Check-Ins:
    Pause throughout the day and ask, How can love best create or connect in this moment? This might mean offering a listening ear, crafting a heartfelt message, or simply smiling at a stranger.

  4. Circles of Connection:
    Map out the people in your life—from those closest to you to new acquaintances. As you think of each circle, see them as companions in your shared cosmic dance. What small creative act of kindness can you offer them today?

Navigating Doubt

Doubts may arise—Am I fooling myself? or Isn’t love something I need to earn?—but keep in mind that you can hold this idea lightly. It’s an invitation to experiment. Observe how your life changes when you see yourself as an infinite wellspring of love instead of a seeker chasing an elusive goal.

The Magic in Encounters with Strangers

Never underestimate the power of a single conversation or chance encounter. Even a brief interaction in a café or a waiting room can transform a moment into a shared human experience. When you stand in your identity as love, you bring an open-hearted presence that resonates beyond words. In this way, your circles of influence expand into places you never imagined possible.

Closing Thoughts

You are love having a human experience—already complete, already brimming with creative potential. Recognize the opportunities for creation and connection that show up each day. Whether you’re greeting an old friend or meeting a new colleague, approach each moment knowing you are not “learning” love but embodying it.

This perspective isn’t about striving; it’s about relaxing into being who you truly are. Embrace it wholeheartedly, and watch how your relationships, sense of purpose, and personal growth unfold in ways that honor the infinite wellspring of love within you.
