I sat enjoying the company of a wonderful man this evening, as I listened to the stories that he told me about how he felt about love and his views on the feeling of love. I asked him if he thought if love was an emotion or a feeling? his response was simply this, they are two very different words but have the same meaning. I came to ask myself is there a difference? is a feeling the same as an emotion. Asking if we as people Complicate Love? His response was yes we do.
At times we tend to look at Love as being a challenge that is not infact something that we do not understand! How can we understand something that we fear. Love is an action, it is something we feel and we act up on. Love come in many different forms to us. The way we love our family, friends and our partners. Relationships turn from being in the moment to being nonexsistant due to people giving up on the will to fight for something that is apart of us. and yes sometimes Love and relationships don't work out. How can you say to yourself that you gave your best when there was no understanding of one's self of this emotion, this feeling, this action.
Love is all around us, in our music, in people we see everyday and the love we see and feel when we see ourselves. Yet there is still a lack of it in the world, in our universe various statements come to mind. God ask How can you Love me whom you cannot see, but not love your brother whom you see everyday. Whitney Houston sang The Greatest Love Of All, is the love that we have for ourselves. These things that complicate our actions on love are of our own doing. If we can find that One part of ourselves and accept who we are inside and out. The relationships we have with other would be that much greater.
Love is something that I am very passionate about and I search to find on a daily basis, by giving myself a little of it everyday. I to will find that special someone that will complete the wholeness of who I am. although it needs to start inside of me.
For those of you wanting and looking for it. I challenge you to make a list of what your perfect mate would look like. taking all of the atributes from actors, co workers , personality traits from your favorite song that describes how you think love will look like. take your time in doing this. once you are done. Post it in my message board please so that only I can read them. I will post mine on this page so that you can get an idea. of what I am talking about. Be honest. this excersise will help you get an idea of who you are, and also say where you are in your life based on the type of person that you would like to be with.
Thank You, and Take care of yourselves and each other.
Love,Kenneth
