The Month of Romance and Love: #2 of 14 Tips for finding better love

#2 One plus one equals two

If your inner landscape yearns for love, have you decorated your outer landscape for romance?

Does your personal space display your relationship’s intentions?

Tip for today: Notice your outer landscape. Walk with fresh eyes around your home and notice what dominates the story. Kids? Work? School? Hobbies? T.V.? If you want more, what can you remove to make more space?

“Love does not dominate; it cultivates.”

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Great day for prioritizing ‘love’

Posted on January 31, 2015 | 1 comment

The emphasis for ‘love’ has started! The wheel of marketing has rolled into February’s celebration focus of ‘love.’ Everyone can admit this focus is bringing us into acute awareness of our unique experience of love! I say, “Use this energy and prioritize your need for ‘love.’ Why?

If you are single and looking for love it is your primary focus, regardless of your day activities!
If you are married your thoughts throughout the day include whatever your experience is with your partner! If you have feelings that are dissatisfied you wear this tension in the same way as if your feelings are those of being satisfied in your relationship.

Start today as the calendar marches into February! Take a few minutes and consider what is important to you in “love.’ Check out our definition of love first and consider how these needs could be met in you most important relationship of your life.

Looking for Love:

Start by reflecting upon what is important to you in a partner.
Wake up to what your needs are in a partnership.

Already found you love and looking for improving your experience:

Start by reflecting upon what is important to you as a partner. (Try and stay out of the comparing what is happening in your relationships and check in to define your needs)
Wake up to what your needs are in a partnership.

*Please know that this is recommended for both great and not so great relationship experiences. It increases your awareness of the good and bad times consciously.

Turning our focus towards ‘love’ in February!

Immature love says: ‘I love you because I need you.’ Mature love says ‘I need you because I love you.’

Erich Fromm

Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses.

Ann Landers

There is no remedy for love but to love more.

Henry David Thoreau

We can only learn to love by loving.

Iris Murdoch

The first duty of love is to listen.

Paul Tillich
