Falling in love. Ah-h-h-h.
Most
of us want it or want it again. We love the feeling.
Warm, excited, filled with joy, passion and lust for each other.
Confident and trusting that this is the one person we can relay on, trust,
reveal ourselves. We can be real and they will love us
anyway. They'll love our lumps and bumps. Our quirky habits
and wacky family. Be impressed with what we do, what we've done. Feel
excited about our goals and dreams. Want to help us achieve those
dreams. Falling in love is the closest experience to what
it is to live fully in the present. No one daydreams about work
and to-do lists while they're falling in love. No one forgets to show
up on a date or dresses like a slob. Not if they're really in love.
They remember "What's Important Now". Their lover is what is important
now. Of course it can't continue at a breakneck pace.
Work, life, family all mix in. But what matters is THE BEGINNING.
Falling in love with someone who is right for the REAL YOU. Not
just who looks good, or impresses your friends. Someone who fits your
life, your beliefs, your values.
When you fall in love,
what is falling? It's your walls, of course! You are letting
down your walls. Letting someone see the REAL you. Letting
yourself feel attached to someone else. You are excited because you
are ALIVE! You are scared because you are at RISK!
They could dump you, turn on you, use what you've told them (your innermost
secrets) to hurt you, tell all your friends about how needy, weak, shallow,
cranky, demanding, fussy or slob-like you really are. Yes - falling
in love is dangerous. If you find it difficult to let
down your guard, take down your walls, reveal who you are, and accept others
as they are, you will have a very difficult time falling in love.
If you are too picky, looking for Mr. Right or Ms. Right, you will not fall
in love. The reason is simple. They're not good
enough. Why? Because you are not good enough. At least,
not in your own mind. You are hoping Mr. Perfect or Ms. Perfect
will make you perfect - good enough to love and be loved.
Has it worked so far?
If you want to fall in love, you must learn how to be
vulnerable and intimate. Learning to be present
teaches you exactly that. Because when you're fully present, you
are REAL. What you think and feel, you reveal. You have
nothing to hide, nothing to prove, nothing to lose.
What is it worth to you to learn how to be intimate, real and vulnerable?
To feel love, give love, receive love?
Here is
bad news for you and good news, too. The bad news is - love is not
"out there" in another person. The good news is - love is "in here" -
inside yourself, aching to come out if you are willing to dare to be Real,
intimate and vulnerable. Learning to be present teaches
you how to be intimate by teaching you how to be tougher - on the inside.
Then, you will trust yourself enough to let down your walls and
experience Real Love that lasts...
