Love, everyone says they want it. The reality is they want a person to coddle them, tell them their awesome, beautiful, sexy, strong, intelligent etc pay their bills, fuck their brains out, clean their house and well in general be a multi-use acquisition, that they own, to do for them, what they will not do for themselves and then wonder why shit goes south. Hey there, love is not a person, place or thing. It cannot be owned and it cannot magically make everything all better. Here is what it really is: its total acceptance of yourself and the world including it's people, as they are, right now. Its a way of living, thinking and feeling. Its an energy of thriving, of peace and power, of happiness. Its giving to oneself and then sharing companionship, its understanding others because you've been there. Its setting standards of living, honesty and ethics. Its treating others well and with respect, that they too, can handle their shit, like equals. Its being a guiding light, lighting up their blindness so they can see and do for themselves. Its genuine kindness, patience and caring, connection and open-hearted intimacy. So if your looking to GET SOMETHING from "love", give it to yourself and then share with those who are doing the same. This isn't selfishness, this is love. An empty well cannot share its water with anyone. Remember that.
