Just LOVE me, like a fat kid loves cake!
Have you ever felt like that? When I first heard that, it hit me like a
ton of bricks. To be in LOVE like that or to be loved like that would
just rule forever.
Is that not what
we are all yearning for? Do we not seek out LOVE from the second we
breathe as an infant? We search our parents eyes for that look of LOVE.
We smile because we know it makes them smile with the LOVE that they
feel for us.
To LOVE or not to LOVE? This is the question we all ponder through out life.
Why do we yearn to be someones everything? We want nothing more than to
feel like the LOVE of one`s life. We spend our lives looking for that
special person that will make our world seem like a dream. We want to
feel safe and secure in our choice of partners. But how do we really
know that this one is "the one" we will LOVE unconditionally forever?
How do we know that this choice of LOVE will not break our heart? How
do we know that this LOVE will LOVE us when the chips are down and we
are not that perfect person that they fell in LOVE with?
Well I hate to sound like a wet blanket here on a cold night, but
nothing is guaranteed. Life promises us nothing. We make our lives what
they are, right at this moment. In matters of the heart we gamble, and
as I have said before, to give LOVE is to risk losing LOVE. That is
just another one of those bleary facts. Like rain storms and snowfalls,
we have no control over anything that nature has given to us. We can
only do our best with what we have. I have spoken before about gifts.
Well, LOVE is a gift when it is given and when it is received. It does
not happen because we say we want it to, or when we like a person and
say "LOVE me". HA. I am sure that almost everyone out there will agree
to that. I am also certain that the word "Stalker" comes from that
notion.
LOVE can be a very scary risk. "Have you ever been in love? Horrible
isn't it! It makes you so vulnerable. It opens you up, totally exposing
your heart only to let someone get inside you and twist things up so
tight, you can barely breathe. You build up defenses, you build an
entire suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then that person,
not seeming any different from any other person, wanders into your
lonely life. You give them your heart. They didn't ask for it. They did
something one day, like kiss you or smile your way, and then your life
isn't your own any more. LOVE takes your heart hostage. LOVE swarms
inside you. LOVE devours your entire being and leaves you crying in the
darkness. With the simple phrase, "lets just be friends", it turns into
a knife, cutting its way into your heart. The pain is like no other you
have ever felt nor ever want to feel again. Not just in your
imagination, not just in the mind. It's like losing a part of who you
are, or rather who you were. That my friends is one reason we are so
careful to not make the wrong LOVE choice. I know reading this totally
makes one never want to do that. But we do, over and over again. Why?
Is it such a deep needed desire that we really have no control? Is cupids arrow that strong? YES on both counts.
LOVE is one of the most powerful sensations we will ever endure in our lives.
LOVE knows no limit to its power, no end to its trust, no loss of its hope.
LOVE can overpower anything.
LOVE stays up, when all else has falls down.
LOVE is felt when one grasps another's hand.
LOVE is as much of an object as an obsession. Everybody wants it and
everybody seeks it, but few ever achieve it. Those who do, will cherish
it, get lost in it, and among all, will never, ever forget it.
LOVE does not waste time looking for the perfect lover, instead it creates a perfect love.
LOVE is somewhat like an hourglass, the heart fills up on one side as the brain empties the other.
LOVE is admiring ones heart: as admiration is the love of ones mind.
LOVE is with you when you least deserve it, because that's when you really need it.
These are a few thoughts that I have that tell me what LOVE is and why LOVE is.
When we're incomplete, we're always searching for somebody to complete
us.We must understand that until we admit that while our partner can
add sweet dimensions to our lives, we alone are the only ones that can
bring that same fulfillment to ourselves. No one is responsible for our
happiness.
Some people fall into a pattern of needing that NEWNESS LOVE in their
relationships. These people will go from one relationship to another
forever, never getting off that roller coaster of failure. They never
understand that LOVE has stages. LOVE at first is so full of mystery
and excitement. Then we move into becoming comfortable with one another
and blending our ways to continue to strengthen our LOVE for one
another. We continue to grow with each other, adding newness to each
other by growing in one world, but as two people. Our years together
build our road to our destiny of spending our lives and enduring
tribulations as one. If you want life to always be a bed of roses, then
you best grow a few gardens, because the roses will only get there if
you grow them or bring them to your life. In other words sweet people
of LOVE, your LOVE and passion is only what you make it. If you ignore
it or get too busy to feed it, it will die or fade away. It's like any
other living breathing thing. LOVE needs to be treated with respect and
treated like the special gift that it is.
Another thing we must be careful of is to let those we love be
perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image,
otherwise LOVE is only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.
LOVE like you mean it, it is the only true way to let your LOVE for one
another grow stronger and continue to be all powerful and wonderful.

Relationships ask us to contemplate "forever" as a way of life.
It is a world without end of our own creation.

The purpose of life is to discover your gift.
The work of life is to develop it.
The meaning of life is to give your gift away.
The gift, is LOVE!

Hello my name is Dorothy and I thought you might like to know a bit
about me! I was born and raised in Canada where I raised 4 great
children and ran a business for 23 years. I recently moved to Florida
to continue my life and enjoy the tropics. My experiences throughout my
life have built my character and made me an independent women. My
issues regarding self-esteem have directed me towards creating a
wonderful website for all the women in the world!
www.WomensSelfesteem.com My goal is to simply put a smile on your face,
add a little sunshine to your day, and help you find the strength to
deal with your fears and tackle your weaknesses, but most importantly
to help you find the goodness that is inside of you, so that you can
live a peaceful and happy life.
I have had many questions reguarding why my website is totally free.
Well, it isn't actually really free. The payment that I ask for from my
members and any women that frequent my site is that they feel better
about themselves, and that they use some of that gained strength to
help other women who also suffer from self esteem issues that women are
faced with in daily life. |
