“To love means to commit oneself without guarantee, to give oneself completely in the hope that our love will produce love in the loved person.”
Isn’t that some truth?! The scariest thing about loving someone is letting go. Letting go of our pride, letting go of our insecurities, letting go of all those devices we use to protect ourselves for fear of not being loved. Ironic that the very things that do not allow us to love fully are the same things that we hold on to for fear of not being loved…
I have loved before. I have opened my heart up and given it to another only to have it, what I thought at the time, broken.
Was I wrong!
You see in allowing myself to ‘lower all my defenses”, even if only 20% I strengthened my heart and prepared it so it would be ready for the moment where I found what I was truly looking for – the amplification of emotion and energy, of strength and self found only when giving fully. Found Only In Love.
To steal a phrase from D. H. Lawrence
“I am in love - and, my God, it is the greatest thing that can happen to a man. I tell you, find a woman you can fall in love with. Do it. Let yourself fall in love. If you have not done so already, you are wasting your life.”
So if you haven’t been there – I strongly suggest it. If you have been there, get back whenever you can. If you are there, my hope for you is continued dwelling in the neighborhood. Wherever you stand believe that their is immense power in this world that we all have access to... Found Only In Love.
Just a thought.
Bless
