We yearn to connect to one another.
We want to make love, give love, and receive love.
And when we feel its absence, all else seems kind of flat.
True love, at its essence, is aboutacceptance.
We learn that things have their own living and ever-changing shapes.
But thats not how life works.
True love, at its essence, is aboutacceptance.
And the most important ingredient to love is the ability topay attention.
A love that pays attention is a love that is alive.
Everything in life begins with noticing.
How can I make your day better?
Oftentimes in relationships, we give whatwewant to receive, rather than what our partnerneeds.
It means that well have to sit by their side throughout sadness, failures, and rejections.
And we love them still through it all.
And we love us, too, the same.
And how beautiful it is to explore the unique changing world of another person?
Love says:
I want you to be.
I want every day for you.
I want every moment for you.
I love your being in and of itself.
Our greatest adversary isforgetfulness; forgetting our heart, truth, and ability to love.
It is love, and only love, that is the common denominator of everything.
And when we realize the power that we hold to give another the safe space for them tojust be.
