Love It

💖💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Everyone has their own version or concept of what love is or supposed to be. When we are young we begin to formulate a baseline of love. Family members that makes us comfortable and laugh maybe give us our own way. We begin to build foundations that we grow to love like certain foods, activities, clothing, scents and music that makes us smile. By the time adolescence kicks in trying to blow those blocks apart we pretty much have a wavering sense of what love is.

  Everybody’s environment both growing up and how well they made it through their teens is different so even though most of us have a baseline of what love is, I think most us have a blurred concept. When it comes to relationship love almost every woman wants the story book romance that quickly evolves into a forever marriage complete with all the trimmings. Most men want a continuation of being taken care of like with mom or grandma but with the bonus of wherever, whenever why ever sex. The bottom line here for both is to be taken care of.

   Love is so fundamental and primary and many believe that love is supposed to be black and white and simple. It is kind of amusing to buy into the theory that love is so obvious and easy to figure out yet so many that bought the book and watched the movie missed the subtleties because they were too busy snapping their fingers and cracking their whip. Love like most things that appear to be easy then take on different responsibilities once the newness wears off, can be easily misunderstood and taken for granted. Nothing in this life is guaranteed forever; not our or our loved one’s existence, our looks, financial status, social following or even our own or someone else’s feelings/emotions. It really is important that we can sustain our own happiness to some degree or can do for ourselves just in case something happens to alter the situation. That is not a green light to be selfish or dodge loving someone, just means don’t enter a relationship thinking it will save you, protect you or be a forever happiness fountain; someone should not be the reason you live.

  Love does come in many ways, degrees, and faces. Without some form of it directly or in directly in our lives, well we live a life void of color. Even a splash of color here and there can inspire and breathe new life into something/someone hiding in the shadows of gray.

Swallowing an Elephant

You know that joke/riddle How do you eat an elephant? A-One bite at a time. For most that seems to be the most logical. The elephant is quite large and nobody can just pop one in their mouth but oddly enough there are people out there that want you to over tax your system trying to get one down in one bite. Apparently, there are some lucky individuals out there who can unhinge their jaw and eat an elephant in one or two tries so that sets the bar for everyone else. I am not so blessed to be able to unhinge my jaw and swallow large objects.    My capacity to learn and adapt to familiar things that need to be dusted off and new ways takes more than a day or two. I know the elephant swallowers are in high demand and get cut higher respect but I feel the nibblers are just as worthy. Patience is a skill that has been slacking both in the people who want to try to make a nibbler into a swallower and those who are observing and comparing; even the nibbler wanting to be perfect...

Breathing

When someone asks me how I am I usually respond with okay which means nothing bad or good is going on. When things aren’t so okay I reply with “I’m barely breathing” which means I’m highly stressed out over something. When I listen to meditation videos they always start out with deep breathing, at first, I thought it was kind of silly to concentrate so much on breathing. I also started to notice my breathing when I was stressed out or intensely involved in something. I have two destructive breathing patterns that take place, I either over breath or shallow breathe; sometimes I even subconsciously hold my breath. None of the three poor breathing methods make a happy functioning body. It’s funny to have to learn how to breath properly because it’s something we do automatically.    With some unknown allergies or on and off sinus issues I already face upper repertory struggles at times. When I over breath due to some hidden or not so hidden stress I notice changes in my bod...
