There Are Only Two Emotions In The Universe
When we left the Absolute as spirit forms to explore and experience the universe, we knew that we would have feelings about things.
We were also told that every choice we made could be traced back to either love or fear.
Each of these two root emotions would be the starting point for all experience, feeling, understanding, and appreciation.
Here are some examples.
The act of forgiveness is ultimately an act of love.
The feelings of bliss and excitement that come from romance originate with the love between the two partners.

The birth of a child created from such a relationship is a source of immense joy, all which is traceable to the love of the two souls who chose to bring a precious life into this planet.
Fear is just the opposite.
Anger is an extension of fear.
We can be angry and bitter with someone because we fear their wrath and abuse.
This anger can lead to hatred, feelings of vengeance or, worse yet, violence.
Again, all of it stems from the root emotion of fear.
What are some of the feelings that fall into the domain of love?
Compassion, forgiveness, joy, bliss, generosity, patience, tolerance, understanding, gentleness, respect, honor and the like all have their source in the emotion of love.
What are those that can be linked to fear? Hatred, greed, violence, jealousy, selfishness, anger, bitterness, self-gratification, control, and deception are just a few.
In a world of opposites, we are also able to compare these emotions, see how they feel, and make our choices accordingly.
Each choice we make ultimately creates a feeling of love or fear, all of which serves as a valuable reference point that can bring us further into to the Light or deeper into the darkness.
