Expressing Love...Hmm What's That?

[gemmy]

IBut what is love? What makes it real? And how do we interact with each other with love in a world whose ability to love seems to rival my ability to punctuate? Puzzling indeed.

Darling Handsome man, you already well know the answer to these questions for yourself. You now just need to believe enough in it to make you strong, believe in it's power to help you walk the scalding, lava wrought path ahead of you - barefoot. You know what's on the other side but you cannot get there until you Decide to take the first crucial and death defying step.

And how do we interact with each other with love in a world whose ability to love seems to rival my ability to punctuate?

You both have a magic and articulate on levels most of us only hope to, ying and yang, balance of opposite is how The compliment of each of your opposites to the other is the beauty within your relationship and it teaches all of us how very real and possible it all is.

... until you Decide ...

That's what my thought revolves around. Love being a decision made, a series of decisions actually- from the little everyday ones that are barely on the radar screen to the grand ones that get noticed by all who are a witness.

Love is a decision one makes when one decides to say, "Thank you so much for trying" instead of saying, "Why didn't you find a way to make it work, you moron!" (That was a personal thought there, in case anyone thinks I was aiming it at anyone here in particular)

Love is decided upon when the thought is "yes" instead of "I don't know." It's made easily or torturously. But no doubt about it, it is made. And in the making, it becomes real.

That's my thought anyway.

All the best.

Awsome! Thank you!

Your thanks is generous. And even though it feels as if I'm overstepping to say so, you are quite welcome.

"...it's in actually making the decision that is so very hard than the follow through to keep that decision..."
