Love is a rose…. better not pick it. It only grows if it’s on the vine. Handful of thorns and you know you’ve missed it, you lose your love when you say the word “MINE”.
This line from the song just about sums it up. In relationships we usually get what we give out.
Unless one or both are flawed deeply and cannot love and then it is very hard to make anything workout.
Start by loving yourself and then give this love to your beloved. Act in their best interest.
Love has to be based on something higher than ourselves. My higher power is God and He will direct my relationships in the best way if I let Him.
“Letting Him”, means to give up control. No manipulation. Some of us don’t even know we are controlling and manipulative we have been that way for so long and from our core.
When a relationship starts we are in love and see through the glasses of love. Everything is perfectly lovely.
When the love drugs wear off and we are left with a human being who isn’t really perfect after all that is when we must hold our tongue and trust God to show us ways to allow great communication to iron things out.
I have had questions in my relationship and waited and the answer would come without me having to demand or even ask.
It is important for me to keep the purity of love that started in the beginning. The loving feelings, the respect, the awe we feel for our loved one.
I don’t want to have a knock down drag out or say ugly things I can never take back because my first marriage was like that and I never was actually able to forget the things he said to me and I never felt loved or cherished because of that.
So, treat them like the diamond they are. And if they aren’t a diamond then maybe your love and respect will turn them into one. If not then it is best to find the ONE who you so desire that all others are second choice.
