Lost's Take on Love: It's innately who were are!




LOVE.... 

 We could make excuses and try to resist it....
We could shun and avoid it.....
We could runaway and fear it.....
We could place on pedestal and worship it.....
We could venture out to seek it....
We could even deny its very existence
but, fundamentally, we are "It"
Immerse yourself; embrace love openly, fully...
Love is indeed as simple as it is beautiful.
Together, we must have faith
We must believe that it will guide us home!

-Lost 

We have all attempted to understand the meaning of love. I will now try my hand at interpreting what love means to me. To me, love is the most pure of emotions. I would even go as far as to say, love is innocent and untainted so crisp and clean. It means being able to place someone else's needs above our own. It even gives us the strength to shed our innately selfish desires. It allows us to see the good in others and grants us the power to see past the imperfections and accept them for who they are.  Love, sets our weary soul free, allowing us to open the doors to our hearts. Releasing the floodgates if you will, freeing our emotions, allowing them to explore the exquisitely divine possibilities yet undiscovered.

Love has no boundaries. It transcends time and space. Love even transforms yet is still eternal. Love is just love pure, simply beautiful.  Love is comfort, an ease, it is security, it is being able to be you without fear of being judged and let your guard down, to harbor no secret to let down any wall that surrounds your heart.

Love yields us helpless, drives us to the depth of the abysses just short of sending us over to the brink of sheer insanity. It enslaves us, shackled by the bonds of love; we surrender ourselves to a lifetime of servitude to our capture as they are the key holder to our hearts. It challenges us to be better; it inspires the most complacent of minds to achieve the most miraculous of feats.

But is love, by itself, enough to make a relationship work? Sometimes I wish love alone were enough, yet in the world we live in sadly, love alone is not enough. Love requires intimacy, nurturing and care in order to survive and flourish.

Don't let fear keep you from experiencing the most wonderful of emotions. Open the door and walk into love's house and allow it to flow like water through the bridges of your life feeding your soul and filling your  veins. Allow it to course freely through you, engulfing you immerse yourself in the mystical possibilities yet untold.
