it doesn’t see defects
Love opens and accepts.
Love sponsors
gives
sustains
and also knows how to receive.
Love nourishes
caresses
gently holds…
Love has no requirements to be filled
Love doesn’t know failings
nor demands…
Love rises while grounding at the same time
giving roots and wings the same
Love understands
forgives
embraces
tenderly taking care...
Love is hugging
melting
being together
knowing and not knowing
letting go
and setting free…
and for you?
what is Love for you?
Love,
Priya
Real, lasting love, complains and accepts that it is a part of life and loves him/her anyway. Love sees the defects and accepts them realizing that he/she has defects also. Love sponsors, sustains and also knows how to receive. Love nourishes, caressing gently and other times burns like a wild fire and accepts both as good. Love, true love demands fidelity and nothing less. Love knows failing and tears. Love stands together when illness and death become realities. Love rises to Heaven and farther throughout the universe causing the entire universe to be a better place and honoring the God/Gods/spirits even as it reaches down into Mother Earth for substance.
ReplyDeleteLove understands, forgives, embraces, hurts, forgives again, tenderly taking care...
Love is hugging, melting, being together, being apart and knowing that fidelity is being honored.
knowing and not knowing and not needing to know because trust is there, letting go and setting free… and always with the knowledge that the freedom will not be abused,
Love is knowing that it will last for eternity.
and for me?
that is Love
Thank you <3

Funny enough Wim, my very first post on this blog, 'I love, I learn, I Love' is just about this... love, silence...
