Love– so much has been written about one single word and so much still seems unknown. Perhaps that is the reason there is so much confusion, joy, and pain associated to that four letter word. The truth is that love never fails, nor does it disappoint. It doesn’t cheat or say goodbye. Sadly to say, the culpability is on us. We fail in love – our fears, our insecurities, the things we won’t do. You cannot be guarded or protected and be deep in love. The walls that surround one’s heart protect it from being harmed, but it also keeps love from entering. Somewhere we learned that in love, less is more, yet love’s roots are abundant – a never ending flow that does not judge, incriminate, or detach.

In my ten years of coaching individuals and couples, I have seen couples, who seemed on the verge of ending it all recover the passion. And I have seen couples, out of fear, deny their hearts and run to their heads to justify why it should end. We cannot trust what our head is saying. Our head is, in part, a collection of half truths and incomplete endings.

Yes, there is tremendous value in listening to our heads, but it is constructed from the past not the present. It is our hearts which are in the present, and only when we get into our hearts can we decide whether two hearts belong together.

We feel alive when we love, and it hurts when you love and it is not returned. There is no middle ground. When we choose to love we must love fully – unconditionally. We must come to the relationship to give, not to take. The relationship doesn’t complete us, it liberates us to become more. Yes, your partner must reciprocate or the relationship will be out of balance, but you love fully because it is who you are. There are no guarantees when it comes to matters of the heart, but a love which is sleepwalking through life will never leave you fulfilled. Anyone can say goodbye, but to say ‘I love you’ takes the courage of your heart.
Until next issue, I wish you love and passion.
