Is Love a Given or a Gift?

I must say that I am living in the most amazing times of my life. The last month has exhilarated to such speeds that I no longer dare to think to far ahead because my plans and life styles change so rapidly. I truly live in the moment, needing to view the clock only for the sake of keeping appointments.

I have walked away from all materialistic items and flawed relationships. This is the third time I have lost "things"....which absolutely mean **** all to me.

The flawed relationships though....that's repairable. That's doable. I'm ready to repair.

You can't eat an Elephant with one Bite. I heard that quote yesterday....seems a week ago....This Earth Angle said to me.
I have to wait for the dust to settle, the wounds to heal, the Love to shine through.

Love is the STRONGEST tool/weapon we have and I intend on using it. Only for the ones who can and will accept love. Love has so many levels. The hardest love to learn, in my humble opinion is TOUGH LOVE, yet, it is the most simplest from of love there is. If only I had had the backbone 15 years ago, I would not have to type these words now.

I believe there are some relationships that simple dissolved over the course of the years. Totally different belief structures can and will crumple.
In those cases, I hope for them a happy life. A life...Things that they need to make them the happiest that they can be.

I have Faith and need to pull in the reins, slow it done, Chew on the rubbery tail of that Elephant, because I truly need to allow the Universe to Unfold as it should.


Imagine - John Lennon.....If only WE saw his words as they were meant to be seen....heard his Words as John truly meant for them to be said. Imagination is Hope in disguise.

Love is not a given and it requires work to share a relationship if its a one way
street it will bite the selfish one in the a**. It can be a gift true it can be a curse
as people are sometimes trapped in a cycle of the heights of live and the depth
of angst. they are called stormy relationships and they are everywhere. Not beng
into drama or living in the moment I have always avoided both

The love between my children and I is a gift, especially to me. The other kind I was never really any good at so I don't know much about what that could be.

I liked Led Zeppelin's idea of love.

"Every inch of my love". Now that's poetry

I did not read 50 shades book,this is because I was jealous and should have written my own book,I loved my fabulous forties
neither did I because it is poorly written with no plot or character development but I too wish I had been thus inspired.

I know this because I started it and it is drivel....poorly written but smartly written in that it was meant to appeal to a particular audience...like Harlequin is...Harlequin is formatted in a very specific way...it is drivel but it appeals to a certain audience...like any business know your market and you will make money

if you want light porn it's fine but it's not a literary work...

it is not my type of book

I don't think it was suppose to have a plot or character development,this is secondary.

I think the script was written to "manfacture a response",to awaken those feelings we never really feel on a daily bases,the feelings we know we all have,but seem at times so dormant,
this movie was all about "manfactured response",rather then a plot.
