Finally Found the Love of My Life
I have a friend, George, who mentioned something that got my self-creating juices flowing. (A muse I supposed you would say.) In any case the topic is "The Love of My Life" and how that relates to food and being ready for the love of one's life when they appear on the scene.I am learning that I am the love of my life. Anyone else who comes along can either compliment my life or bring me misery. What makes me miserable? Not being able to have the object of my desire -- be it chocolate cake, ice cream, or a satisfying sex partner. Any thing that gets in the way of my being the love of my life... that is misery.
Cheese cake, or any other gooey dessert filling my stomach, or a man filling my body with his -- both are just symptoms of needing something other than me. Graphic? I suppose... but true.
Perhaps one of the reasons we humans are here on earth is to learn that we are all that we need. Being co-creators with God, food, want of a sexual partnership, or money, or anything else or any habit that we allow to get in the way of realizing our importance to ourselves does not honor the wonderous creations we are. Understanding our position in God allows us to be the love of our lives.
Relationships? They are only a testing ground to give us ideas of where we are in our path to self-realization and self-love. They are necessary. Otherwise, how would we ever learn to respect and honor ourselves? We'd never know how fulfilling it is to give and receive love and honor and respect - without those relationships.
Relationships come and go. They do not have to be sexual, but can be intimate in many other aspects and most fulfilling - most rewarding - and educational.
So, in this path of mine - seeking now to be healthy physically, sweets and treats have a new meaning... and I am pleased to announce that I have finally FINALLY discovered the love of my life - me.
As a side-note. Today would have been my dad's 95th birthday. This year, he gave me this gift - the insight to understand loving me. [His name was George also.]
