No One Loves Me

Recently, this conversation came up at home.

Our household has a bit of an obsession with soft toys.

Each of them has their own unique personality.

One of them is a gorilla named Moong Moong. He’s a little fiery—he shows his emotions without hesitation and is always in his authentic self. No people-pleasing here. Moong Moong says what he thinks, how he feels.

Then there’s his father, Beary. (Yes, a bear father and a gorilla son—don’t ask how. Fantasy land has no rules. LOL!) Beary is the gentlest soul. Kind, patient, and unconditionally loving—especially with Moong Moong. He’s the kind of father every child dreams of.

One day, Moong Moong got really upset and shouted,

“NO ONE LOVES ME!”

He frowned, sulked, and began pushing everyone away.

Beary walked over, wrapped him in a big hug, and said,

“I love you, soooonnn.”

But Moong Moong pushed him away too.

That’s when my 10-year-old son chimed in:

“Moong, you said you wanted love, but when your papa gives it, you don’t want to receive it.”

Wow. Truth bomb.  

That simple observation opened such an important space for reflection.

How often do we say we want love—but when it actually arrives, we resist it?

Maybe deep down we feel we don’t deserve it.

Maybe we fear it’s fake or it might hurt us.

And in guarding ourselves from pain, we unknowingly push away even the purest love.

We forget that when we sit in the stillness of our being, we are love.

When we give from that place, love flows effortlessly back to us.

But when we block ourselves from receiving it, we interrupt this natural flow—the flow of life itself.

So here’s a reflection for today:

Do you reject love?

Are you ready to receive it?

Are you truly free to give and receive love without conditions?

What unconscious patterns might be running the show in your life?
