Love with the Greatest of Ease

Love with the Greatest of Ease
It is All Just a Choice Away...

When we fall in love we walk on clouds. Our hearts beat faster as soon as we see the person who holds our affections. Life sometimes seems to stop, but sometimes it spirals out of control too. Butterflies swirl around in our bellies and make us feel drunk with all the happiness we feel. Our feet seem to hover above the ground and our heads touch the clouds. Our love is so endless like the stars in the sky. Our love glitters and sparkles like the sun rays touching the water during sunset. Our hopes for pure love awaken again with the sunrise.

When we first meet a person we see the good in them, their potential, and their hopes and dreams. We love the quirky little things they do and think them to be charming. We love the twinkle in their eyes when they laugh. It breaks our heart when they cry. We want to be close and look into their eyes to see ourselves in them. The eyes are the windows to the soul, so they say. So let me look deeply in your eyes and see the valleys, mountains, beaches, deserts, and oceans of your soul. Give me a roadmap so I am able to understand you better. Help me to feel safe as we journey together and show me the way when I am lost in the depths of your soul and heart. I want to love you, understand you and hold you close, forever in my arms. I want to hold your hand and be your rock in the stormy sea of life.

Love is light in the beginning and often, at some point, it turns heavy on us. The day-by-day routines keep us prisoners and easily we forget the ease of life and love. Our love turns sour like old milk and breaks into a thousand pieces like a glass falling on the ground. We trample on the feelings of our loved ones and turn our backs on them when they cry. Lost is the connection of the hands and we’d rather throw them in the sea like a useless rock instead of being the rock for them.

Every single day we have to make a conscious decision to love with the greatest of ease.

Every single day we have to hold hands, kiss passionately and look deeply in the eyes of each other to see our soul. How does their soul landscape look like today? Is it a breezy morning on the beach? Is it a heavy thunderstorm in the mountains? Can we hear the voice in the wilderness? Can we see the ship of the desert? You might be surprised what you can find when you dare to go on an adventure. So put your walking shoes on, pack your backpack with lots of love and kindness, fill up your water bottle with respect and flavour it with trust and loyalty. Also, pack some band-aids should you get hurt on the way when you explore and climb the jagged volcanoes with their sharp edges.

I can assure you this wonderful adventure will last a lifetime. Every day you will find a new hidden gem and lovely little gardens with fragrant and colorful flowers. But you have to dare to look and leave the heaviness behind you.

It is all just a choice away.

So go, and love with the greatest of ease…
