Are you looking for love? This explains why you cannot find it. You may say: 'But I need love, and how will I find it if I don't look for it?' If you really want to find love, then love, and stop looking for it. You will see, it is love that will pursue you, and even if you want to get rid of it, you will not be able to. You will chase it out the door and it will come back through the window!
Yes, as soon as you stop looking for love and decide to give it instead, it will appear. The more you look for it, the more remote it will become. It is as if you were chasing your own shadow; it runs in front of you and you cannot catch up with it. When you look for love from others, you concentrate on something outside yourself; you distance yourself from the treasure within you and eventually lose it.
This is how it works. Instead of looking for love, give it, constantly renew it in yourself and you will always feel its presence within you. It will always be there smiling at you, gazing on you kindly.
