Luv luv luv this fellow human soul
Next month we will have been together for 25yrs with a few rewarding two months time apart along the way. These times supported us immensely to balance our unique soul paths / passions and choosing again and again and again from a fresh canvas to walking / evolving together for another day, month and year (s).
If you ever doubt the power of LOVE, I can give testament to it. It only takes one sincerely authentic loving person to really witness and acknowledge your true essence to give you the strength and affirmation to heal and transform the worst of traumas and heal the gaps within yourself and psyche to realising I AM LOVE and I AM ALL I SEEK is within.
The key is consistency and that is what unconditional love truly is. It is the consistency and resilience of love no matter what; Love , loves you on your perceived good days and your bad days; on your perceived ugly days and beautiful days ; on your depressed and hopeless victim days as well as buzzing with excitement and empowerment days with clear vision and purpose ; on your days filled with tears and grieving on the floor as well as those days / moment filled standing tall with smiles and laughter and so on and so on and so on love follows you where ever you are at patiently, eternally always there for you to return to it in your own time and readiness.
After what I lovingly and compassionately call these days as my wonderfully dysfunctional and often times tramatic childhood events, I have not been the easiest person to love for I distrusted love greatly.
I had experienced so much conditional, controlling and manipulating so called human love as a young child that I really felt so distant and very wary and uncertain of anything that claimed it.
A bit like the catholic religious bearded on a cloud judgemental god I grew up to learn to fear, I also feared this thing that people called love. For often those that were supposed to love me , hurt me with neglect and rejection ( forgive them for they know not what they do ) and did not acknowledge my true essence or even want to know about it. In fact it may have even made them feel super uncomfortable that divine light in my eyes and what does that say to a child ? What do they assume ? They assume that ‘ Who I am is not ok’ , ‘ who I am is shameful and unacceptable’ , ‘who I am has to be denied to survive’ , ‘ who I am has to be controlled to get my basics needs meet of human comforts such as food, warmth, acceptance, inclusion and connection. ‘
Well this fellow here that I was so divinely fortunate to meet when I was a teenager was a true god send and soul mate into my reality.
In truth at the time when we both met we were both as lost and overwhelmed and sensitive as each other trying to navigate being teenagers in a cultural world where alcohol was how we learnt how to balance the harshness of religious ~ cultural accepted doctrines / beliefs and confession boxes for unloading sinful ways.
One of the first things Steve introduced me to when I was 16 or 17 was taking me walking down the fields behind his parents house. There the two of us could just be alone with nature and feel released from the pressures and obligations of society, religion, families and just enjoy each other’s company. It took me awhile to settle into this more peaceful Patient pace of Steve’s and really open my eyes and heart to appreciate the gifts he presented in his own way from simply just being in the expansiveness and grounding of nature.
This gift has grown over the years and we are our most content and alive and passionate when surrounded and immersed in epic nature.
Nature is truly our friend. The nature within to without and without to within
Thank you our beloved friend nature.
