(Man)ny™ Get Me Bodied

Although relationships (meaningful and spiritual ones at that) have always been my main interest, it wasn't until the last few months that i learned some important lessons on the subject ..... things like: . The purpose of all relationships is getting to know OURSELVES better so that we can become the best human being we can be. (Instead of trying to change the person we are involved with).. We don't need to keep looking for "love" all our lives.... we just need to discover and work on our barriers to receiving it. . Relationships are not about what we can get from our partner. They are about us and who we are willing to be and give as a partner ..... without any demands or expectations, otherwise what we do would only be a way of manipulating and controling others. . People don't deliberately start out with the intent of creating break ups and grief. I think it's more our unwillingness to resolve our own issues that end up causing just that. . Most of us want the people we have relationships with to think as we do, act as we do, love as we love, give what we give,and we feel hurt when they don't.... but the truth is, we are all different persons who have had different events in our past shape the way we react to life ...... undestanding this, in my opinion should prevent us from taking anyone's reactions "too personal". . When we are able to realize that our love is precious and we can give it unconditionally, without DEMANDS OR EXPECTATIONS, we can't be dissapointed by anyone's response to it. . We need to realize, accept and sometimes even "forgive" the people we are involved with for not being our "fantasy"........because the truth is, no one will ever be. . The way i see it, a "Soulmate" is not someone or something mystical we need to find in our lifetime ........but instead, someone we are willing to do SOUL-DEEP WORK with. . There's nothing wrong with the differences between us and the person we are involved with.... in the end, i think they are exactly what we need..... in order to push our souls forward. The coolest gift you can give someone is a safe space in which to become who they are.. Judgements are senseless. We are all learning the same lesson in different ways and at different times. Believe me, learning about all this stuff hasn't been easy .... and i have encountered an enemy that is always trying to turn me away from these truths .... my Ego.Layout made by [Loner Leah] no matter what you think
