Are You Afraid to Fall in Love?
|
Are You Afraid to Fall in Love? Feeling loved. At the most basic level, love is a survival instinct wired to our primal core of being. All humans share a hunger to be loved, nurtured and secure in our relationships. This urge fuels our desire to create strong personal bonds. Love gives us the assurance that we are not alone in the world. For many people, however, the need for love hides deep insecurities. When we enter an intimate relationship, we often feel emotionally vulnerable. This is especially true if we have felt let down or hurt in previous relationships. Feelings of insecurity often begin with our childhood family or unhealthy early relationships. These negative experiences can also interfere with our ability to choose good partners. Loving someone opens you up to the possibility of getting hurt. Loving wholeheartedly means finding the courage and willingness to risk tremendous loss. Many times, we are not willing to take this risk. So, when true love is standing in front of us, we may feel compelled to withdraw, obligated to put up a wall or even to run in the opposite direction of love, leaving a trail of dust. Instead of exposing ourselves to the risk of pain or rejection, we position ourselves to hold the power. When insecurities, fear, obsessive thoughts and feelings of powerlessness go unchecked, your ego convinces you to take control. Your ego hates the unknown. Your ego hates taking risks. Your ego hates being vulnerable. Your ego hates being weak and powerless, so it takes charge and actually destroys what you treasure most. If you’re not getting what you need in your relationships, insecurity may be to blame. You can not depend on others to lift you out of your 'funk." Only you can do this. And sometimes it requires reaching out to someone and taking a risk. Be vulnerable. Allow yourself to let love in. xoxo {=} myelin  |

"I Let Love In" Despair and Deception, Love's ugly little twins Came a-knocking on my door, I let them in Darling, you're the punishment for all my former sins I let love in The door it opened just a crack, but love was shrewd and bold My life flashed before my eyes, it was a horror to behold A life-sentence sweeping confetti from the floor of a concrete hole I let love in Well, I've been bound and gagged and I've been terrorized And I've been castrated and I've been lobotomized But never has my tormentor come in such a cunning disguise I let love in O Lord, tell me what I done Please don't leave me here on my own Where are my friends? My friends are gone So if you're sitting all alone and hear a-knocking at your door And the air is full of promises, well buddy, you've been warned Far worse to be Love's lover than the lover that Love has scorned I let love in Writer: Nick Cave Copyright: Embassy Music Corp.

I don't know if I can fall in love anymore. I often wonder if I have truly felt love in the last 20yrs.

Thank you for that fabulous post. It gave me a warm, hopeful feeling. And yet I believe that it was a message for someone else. If any woman can heal his wounds, then she is you. I believe that you can do magic for the deserving.  My featured post this week: Pulling Fantasy Sex Out of My Ass.
