LOVE, A BEAUTIFUL THING...

While love might be a beautiful thing, where does it stem from? What is it that enables me to love another being? 

Love starts with oneself, the love you have for yourself will enable and determine how you love the next person. Love also comes in different shapes, forms and sizes and that makes it so much more beautiful and intriguing. 

Sometimes we find love in the most unusual of places and in the strangest ways. Why should love be according to a specific prescription? It shouldn't, it should be something spontaneous, unplanned, unprescribed, unusual but still fulfilling and exciting. 

To truly fall in love and enjoy love, one should be in sync with their heart, one should be true to what they really feel and one shouldn't be afraid to express those feelings. Love should be liberating and enabling, you shouldn't have to endure love.

Love never fails, if it fails it wasn't love... While this might be a beautiful thing, many are still in love with the idea of being in love, they haven'y fully been exposed to what true love is. True love is never ending, it does not seek to cause harm or belittle, it grooms and grows, it replenishes and does not diminish, it constantly seeks to serve the other without murmur.

Choose your love, love your choice and don't allow this love to come with prescriptions... Remember that the good and the bad come together to make a beautiful picture!

  1. So are you suggesting that love has a limit? I cannot love more than i love myself? #thenubiangoddess

  2. Love is limitless but what I am saying is you cannot love the next person if you have no love for yourself...
