Day 24 – LOVELY
Fall in love with what's inside and savor each moment as if it was the last.

My favorite thing about being in love, is feeling loved in return.
My favorite thing about being in love is the obsession : thinking, talking and being excited about that which I’m in love with. And I have to be careful with obsession, so it’s got to be a Eustress or “Eu-Obsession” kind of thing. To begin to evoke those feelings? I don’t know but I don’t put as much weight into feelings as I do choices.
When I’m truly in love with a particular moment, I can feel the happiness and the smile on my face. Just thinking about memories of times when I’ve been in love brings back some of that happiness.
I also see that these are all moments when I’m truly connected to the present, without a thought about the past, future, the next thing on my to-do list or anything else. Happiness comes when I do things I love, and when I’m happy I seem to automatically tune-in to the present without a care about anything else.
The list of 30 things helped my evoke that feeling, using some of the items on my list would also help
Laughter and coffee
I remember the joy of loving someone who always had my back. Was smart beyond words, and loved me unconditionally. I loved the special looks, the first kisses, the touch. I am thankful I had all this for 36 years. I am grateful ad thankful for having a true love. I know it is possible to love again.
I suppose if I look at everything with gratitude for the gift that it is, then I can see how beautiful and lovely it is
being with my fiance i find we can laugh and cry at the same movies, shows, things around us. hes like me in more ways than one and it didnt take long before we noticed it. heck even both had crappy relationships and abusive partners. we can sit and laugh about silly things like picking up 9 in a game of crazy 8s thinking the other was smart for putting down that queen, or jokingly call the other a doof or biatch ( neither of us can keep a straight face when name-calling cuz we both dont mean it! ) when the other pulls a dumdum move. π we cry when we need to and dont shy away from showing it to the other. he was sweet last night, my tooth was killing me from being out in the cold, and i was in tears, he nearly started crying himself, and gave me a warm cloth to help the pain and it really did help me. hes a great guy.
So I’ve always been pretty moved by the right song, coming on at the right moment. And that happened again this morning. I’m not in a relationship right now. That’s not to say I don’t have my “crushes” but this morning I felt this incredible feeling. I finally connected to it not being about someone else. It was about me connecting to something greater than me. I know it sounds weird. But I realized these past few days that I am in love with life. Of course I hope to be in that relationship with someone some day… but for me right now it’s about appreciating the present moment.
I tried to edit this comment but it won’t let me so I’ll just add on as I think I missed the key point of the reflection yesterday. When I think I about love and trying to evoke that feeling in the given moment – I find that that very naturally seems to happen when I take a second to just pause. Truly pause and breathe. Become still for a second to connect to everything there is. Then. Everything else just sort falls into place.
