At least don’t corrupt love. It is not corrupted by hatred, remember; it is corrupted by falsity. It is not destroyed by anger, never, but it is destroyed by an inauthentic persona, a false face. Love is possible only when there is freedom to be oneself without any guarding, without any reserve.
Live more authentically. Drop the masks; they are a weight on your heart. Drop all falsities. Be exposed.
Once you are true, everything else becomes possible.
Risk is there. If you become true, nobody know whether this relationship will be capable of understanding truth, authenticity; whether this relationship will be strong enough to stand in the storm.
At the most, the relationship can break, at the most. But it is better to be separate and to be real rather than being unreal and together because then it is never going to be satisfying.
Remember, being never happens comfortably; otherwise it would have happened to all. It cannot happen conveniently; otherwise everybody would have their own, authentic being without any problem. Being happens only when you take risk, when you move into danger. And love is the greatest danger there is. It demands you totally. So don’t be afraid, go into it. If the relationship survives truth, it will be beautiful.
