LoVe and what does it mean ?
I put on my Facebook profile a question yesterday … what does love mean to you? It made me think of love in terms of our closest relationship, that with our beloved. These were the responses and thank you so much to everyone who did respond xx
Q. What does LOVE mean to you?
A. A feeling of belonging; contentment; it leaves you speachless and the feeling of completness; butterflies in my tummy; everything; finding the piece to my puzzle – and I did; being for others; feelings emotions and acceptance; love is everything.
In terms of a romantic partnership, it is so nice to have a human friend who holds you as their object of attention and adores you right into your connection. However as Abraham-Hicks would share, there is an experience greater than this and it is independence. How about we say to our lovers, “I love you, but I don’t live for you. Because Source Energy flows through me. You are a catalyst to my well-being, but you are not essential to my well-being. Because I’ve got that figured out on my own. I have reached for thoughts that give me relief and I have relieved myself all the way into my full connection of who I really am. And now we can just dance and play together.”
Can you feel how you take them off the hook? In other words, do you know how many lovers would flock to you if they knew that you would allow them to be as they are and you would not hold them responsible for your happiness. That’s what everyone wants.
There is so much bondage in believing that our happiness depends on another. It’s an impossible task to be what others want us to be!
The greatest gift you can give anyone is to be happy. The greatest gift you can give to any partner, past, present or future is to be so connected with who you truly are that they are irrelevant to your connection. And when they are irrelevant to your connection, then you are going to have a really good time together.
This my friends is the way to true happiness within a relationship – it’s not what most of us have been bought up to believe. I know seeing my parents interact that it certainly was not the case. I grew up with some very screwy ideas on how relationships should be – I saw a tug of war and it’s all very hard and no one can be happy in relationships because it’s a power struggle and a hole host of warped ideas. I now know that unless we are whole and complete within ourselves, unless we look inside ourselves for our own sense of self and happiness that we are very capable of giving ourselves, we will be forever in battle with the ones closest to us.
I would love some comments on this one!!!
