In this message, Harold W. Becker shares that in this present now moment there is a simple question each of us can quietly ask ourselves and by embracing its affirmative answer, we open a whole new reality of potential before us. For more please go to www.thelovefoundation.com
He continues this is most likely not a question you may have ever considered for yourself or one that you have heard discussed by others. It is perhaps even one that you may wish to ignore at this stage of your journey. Yet, this beautiful and amazing transformative power and potential remains ever present until such time you feel the strength and courage to ask and accept its reality in your heart.
Why ask ourselves this question? Long ago we drifted away from our innate loving wisdom and allowed our consciousness to embrace the notion that our outer reality of form was our source of life. We became mesmerized and subsequently reliant upon our creations and forgot the power within our own being. Over time, this separation led to a sense of self doubt and with it, the corresponding manifestation we call fear. Unaware of the ultimate effect of our ongoing outer focus, we handed down our beliefs, notions, perspectives and ideals from generation to generation, century after century, often without stopping once to go within and ask a single question as to whether what we believe or do is actually coming from our own personal truth.
We stand at the threshold of opportunity to reconnect with our heart and allow the fullness of our wisdom to once again guide us. In an instant, we reverse the ignorance of ages by a clear and genuine acknowledgement of ourselves. By our own choice, we release the boundless freedom and joy and accept the potential that heals not only ourselves, also each other and our wondrous planet we call home. Can such a simple question really make this profound a difference? Answer it honestly, willingly, with an open heart and without hesitation, and you may be surprised by your own undeniable conclusion.
Do I love myself unconditionally?
What could there possibly be not to love? Our size, shape, color, age, gender? Our supposed status and achievements in life or the lack thereof? Our choices, mistakes and behaviors from the past? Our lost hopes, dreams or physical connections with others? These outer conditions and garments are only the forms we use to experience and evolve through life - they are not who we really are. Long after the forms dissolve and the expressions disappear, there is one thing that will always remain - Love.
The unconditional acceptance you have for yourself right now is the unconditional love you naturally will have for all others and Life itself. Allow yourself to embrace the knowing of love held within your heart and you share it with the world.

I love this ! I lost someone so very special in my life because of my own doing . For many years in what I have been though finally found trust with them. Many years I have been thrown away and in doing this deed was because of not wanting being thrown away again. My heart and soul is not of this action . I can only ask God to forgive me and allow them to know my unconditional love for them is still very much alive . You are the best and my angel . I do miss you much !

@IrishMegFL Please do not stop trusting others. We - i.e. people with trust issues far greater than your own - learn from people like you. I have had my greatest luck to have come across some very understanding people with your experience with unconditional love. Some of them I have hurt badly in previous times, before I understood my own good. As of now, I am finally able to really learn, and I am becoming a better person to myself, them and the world. Please, do not stop trusting.

I have always loved myself unconditionally. I feel bad for some of our youth that grow up thinking you have to be a certain weight etc.. Only problem is I find myself to be too trusting, thus opening the door to people who tend to hurt me or lie to me. This lately has caused me to fear becoming close to anyone. I sometimes think lately that being this way has put me at a disadvantage. I tend to love people no matter what their faults. I am not sure how to get past this.

@MsPingu112 Look at your very statement ms, it is full of love and care for your very self, I know your question and this novel quest was put here over 2 months ago but please come to see your very nature of giving so much compassion is that love, its without names though and empty of form, its like a stone that is thrown in water, you cannot see it directly even though it ripples and the ripples point directly at the stone. Do not imagine that these people are guiding you..

@MsPingu112 Well thats mostlikely ,because you probably have lived your life as an single individual.. Try to connect with your humanity and aknowlege that you are part of this world and everyone in this world.. Ask yourself, Do I fear anything in life? get back with the answer

How often do we allow others to interrupt our journey of Self love? Do we still let others hurt us with their words? Do we still let others diminish our sense of self worth because they hang on to something that we did or said, or didn't do or say.... and we have already healed from that issue? A very important lesson I have learned is to let go of what others think of me. In the words of Terry Cole-Whitaker, "What you think of me, is none of my business". I know I am here here to teach

@MsPingu112: If you stop and think about it you won't believe it's true that all the love you have been giving has all been meant for you. So who in your live said you were not worthy of love? Just know this: anyone that hurts you through words and/or actions are the one with the problem. Another question could be what have you don't to someone else to feel you don't deserve love? To be or not to be that is the question so why do you chose not love yourself? That is what you need to see.

Beautiful words but how can I start to feel this love? I understand everything the video says, but I never feel that I love myself even if I try. I take care of myself and do stuff for myself.
