"The life and love we create is the life and love we live." - Leo F. Buscaglia
~Most people know that I am a hopeless romantic. I choose to be in love with something everyday :) I look for inspiration in everything and anything LOL...This is me! which leads me to share three "elements" that were shared with me regarding romance. Breath of life, which is our health and essence, Fire of life, which is our vitality (life force energy), and Water of life, which is the flow and function of ourselves. The dictionary meaning of romance states: a love affair, Ardent emotional attachment or involvement between people; love; A mysterious or fascinating quality or appeal, as of something adventurous, heroic, or strangely beautiful. Ardent emotional attachment or a mysterious quality or appeal? My favorite parts of the definition by far.
As far as the elements: Breath of life, which is what we contribute to a relationship our emotional, physical, mental health and our true nature of who we are with our gifts and flaws. The symbolic way of how we truly breathe in life, what meaning we give to it, and how we see ourselves. This element is the foundation of all relationships as it is important to have transparency, honesty, and integrity. Most people often lie or deceive others of who they are or on how they breathe life due to unresolved emotional health issues or mental ideas that have created a story that the self has believed. Sigh...Breathing in life is how we keep our hearts and feelings alive! Very important when creating romance with another person.
Fire of life, which is one of my favorites!!! Our sexual and creative energy the passion within us that gives our lives purpose. The fierce fire that keeps us moving, the fire that allows us to dive in all emotions and experience the depths of life! The inner drive that motivates us, the creative juices that run through are bodies to continue to create and build joy, pleasure, and abundance in our life.
Water of life, the flow, how we interact with others within the relationship, how we react, how we reflect our internal world outwardly. Trusting the process and allowing things flow naturally in relationships is not an easy task as manipulation and control always comes into play. There are always perceptions of what roles individuals 'should' be playing or doing? This is where being authentic is vital, showing who you are and making the choice to accept yourself and others as you relate and grow. It is important to honor yourself every step of the way. That's how we learn how to function, trust and embrace who we are.
Self affirm, self sustain, self assure
