Love

As the song says love is a wonderful thing. For the first time in my 40 something years, I am experiencing love as it should be. Actually I don't think too many people get to have this and keep it in their lives. It is such a gift. I have been in love many times and actually loved more men than I care to admit. But this time IS different because of many things I know, like loving the right person and loving myself and being true to myself. But this wonderful man has inspired feelings in me I wasn't even aware of. I respect him and it automaticaly generated a feeling of always wanting to honor him in every possible way. Big ways to small ways. The man that he is and his character just caused this feeling of respect to emerge before I knew it was there. It controls everytihing I do. I have always tried to live my life with integrity and tried to follow the golden rule of treating others as I wanted to be treated as much as humanly possible and as I have matured and grown as a person, it has gotten easier but I know I will never stop growing and trying to improve. Because this is my belief I focused on being my best but the feelings I have for him makes my goal to be the best even more pronouced. I have been told since I met this man, there is a glow about me and I know it is not that infatuation, floating on air sort of feeling..... It is something much, much deeper, It comes from deep inside my spirit. This feeling of respect is not even about love - it is entirely seperate. It is a great feeling to have along with the love but it is so peaceful and easy. Another thing that tells me how truly blessed I am to have it. Because it is a once in a lifetime feeling, despite many years of searching and several attempts to create it......... One day I simply believed in the concept I have always believed in (once in a lifetime love and subsquent happy life together) and I was open to the possibilities and there he was. Life is divine!
