What is the difference between “love” and being “beloved.” 

  • Ahavah (אהבה): Love

  • Ahuv (אהוב)/Ahuvah(אהובה): Beloved

“Love flows in the direction of giving”

Eliyahu Eliezer Dessler via Everyday Holiness by Alan Morinis

Do you see yourself as someone who is beloved or loved?  Is this all the time or does the situation or people change this?  Are you worthy of love? Are you worthy of being beloved? Who/what is worthy of your love and being your beloved?

I know from personal experience that understanding that you are not only worthy of being love, but actually beloved — is something that can shift your foundations.
