My name is Sangeet and today I am sending you a message about love.
We human beings have this tendency to think that being in love is all about butterflies in the stomach and strong heartbeats.
We think that we are in love just by looking into someone's eyes and feeling the attraction.
To some extent there is some truth in this,
Because there is in fact some sort of specific chemistry and physicality between certain people.
Our senses and feelings differ depending on the people we interact with,
But calling it love is like calling gemstones to pieces of plastic.
Sometimes we get so overwhelmed by our emotions that we completely forget to really get to know the other person.
Our mind is chaotic.
Our feelings are all over the place.
We don't know what to do or what to say.
So here it is,
We are in love.
No,
We are not.
We are in fear,
Denying our abilities to distinguish what is and what is not for us,
Denying our power to remain still and calm and to surpass the initial storm of random encounters and to really see things for what they are.
Because we have no clue of who the other person is,
We call it crush and we start to believe that this is what leads to the perfect romantic relationship.
Let's pause for a while and breathe.
Let's step back and relax.
Let's open our eyes and truly see beyond.
No start will lead to something of true value unless it is solid and consistent and meaningful.
No start will lead to true prosperity unless it comes from our divine inner guidance.
And no true love can possibly be unless we know ourselves first.
And from this,
Our mind will no longer be chaotic,
Our feelings won't be all over the place,
We will know what to do and what to say and we won't forget to really get to know the other person.
And if this is truly the start of something real and beautiful,
It will show its colors,
Its potential,
Its possibilities,
And it will definitely embrace us in a deep knowing that we are,
In fact,
In love,
Not because we are confused,
But because we are sure.
So today,
Let's not rush and run over the precious steps that lead to true love.
Faster or slower,
The quality matters.
Let's love ourselves enough to give us everything that is part of a healthy connection.
Let's be in love,
Not in fear.
Say I love you with all the meaning,
The authenticity,
And the integrity that it deserves.
Then,
We not only get butterflies in the stomach and strong heartbeats,
But we will also be able to live the relationship of our dreams,
Not made of plastic pieces,
But of real gemstones.
