Emotional Maturity Quotient: Ability To Feel and Express Love

In a recent article entitled "What Is Your Emotional Maturity Quotient" or EMQ" I noted that one of the dimensions of EMQ related to the ability to express and feel love towards self, others and the environment.

In a global environment where competition and the need to survive are so valued where is there room for the expression of Love?

Well one's ability to express love and NOT the need to survive is the key to personal growth happiness, fulfillment, harmonious relationships, and a healthy body and most importantly of all a self sustaining planet.

If not then let's look at where competition and the need to survive is taking you, your life and the planet.

Well in a nutshell, the need to survive places one "behind the 8 ball" so to speak. That is because as soon as you find yourself there you automatically, if you are aware of it, start to feel vulnerable, afraid, anxious, stressed, depleted or drained of energy, agitated, frustrated, trapped, alone, unhappy and so on.

All of this causes you to make decisions that are competitive in nature the purpose of which is supposedly to enhance your level of inner stability and inner peace. Yet as long as you are engaging the need to survive you will never feel any of these will you?

What's more as you struggle to survive on a planet that appears to have limited resources you "must" out do your neighbors, correct?

This means separating yourself from any feelings of love or compassion you, as a human being, may have for them. Again this leaves you feeling vulnerable, alone and stressed. Just where you started.

What is all this competition doing to the planet? Well look around you and I think you'll see that the answer is obvious.

So where does this leave you, others and the planet? Well on a course to destruction.
