We don't have to be scientists to know that love is real. Mother’s love for her child is powerful; even though you can’t touch the feeling of love, you know it is real. Hopefully we have all experienced the feeling of love of a parent, or the feeling of loving a child.
And if we are lucky enough, we have also experienced the power of romantic love.
Let's talk about romantic love.
We all hear these sayings: “Love Is powerful,” “Love Is all we need,” “Love makes the world go around…” And in truth love is the most powerful energy on earth.
When we fall in love romantically, we feel euphoria, and an extreme surge of energy.
We lose the need to eat and sleep - we are unstoppable, and we feel like we can do just about anything. The feeling is a surge of tremendous power. We feel invincible!
When we fall in love we can experience a sense of losing control, losing our grip, feeling like we are falling…. falling deep into an abyss. When we are falling in love with our partner, we lose ourselves in him or her; we start losing the sense of who we are.
When we are in love we want to crawl into our loved one’s skin and “be one”.
We spend more and more time with them. We stop pursuing our hobbies and dreams, and instead choose to spend more time with them than alone with ourselves.
We want to give our partner everything in the name of love: our bodies, our minds, our souls. We lose ourselves in another, expecting the same from them.
We totally surrender our inner power.
Don’t Fall In Love!
Instead, I invite you to think about rising in love. Love yourself first; never lose love for yourself and the way you are. Stay in the center of your life.
When you place yourself in the center, from that point of view your bucket is always full of self-love, and because of your abundance of love, you can give it freely without compromising yourself. When you are rising in love you surrender not to the person but to the experience of love.
You are surrendering to love.
When you are rising in love with your partner, you are not dependent on his or her love to be the source of your love and happiness - you already have it within you. You don't worry about the outcome, you don't worry about where it leads, you don't worry about how long it will last - you are being authentic to yourself. Rising in love means your partner is adding to your happiness and love, not creating it.
That way you become true partners In love.
When you are rising in love with your partner, the intention is to help each other- to allow each other to live the full expression of your being, lifting each other up to be the best you can be, freely. You want your partner to be the best they can be without limiting them; you are rising them up in love.
When you are rising in love, your partner feels like they can accomplish anything because of the UNCONDITIONAL LOVE you are expressing towards them. Unconditional love means you let them be who they are - no need to mold them to your vision and expectations.
When your partner wants only the best for you and more than anything for you to just BE YOU, you then know how rising in love feels.
Don't fall in love… rise in love!
With Love and Light
