Love – A Never-Ending Story
While I ended this story with “She lived happily ever after,” in truth, the “ever after” has not come to be yet.
The story is really never ending. Every day offers my partner and me new lessons to learn about ourselves and each other and new challenges, which, as we open ourselves to each other in love, provides us with even greater possibilities for ourselves and our relationship into the future.
This is not to say that we never have arguments or disagreements, but because we love and care deeply for each other, we attempt to find a resolution in a way that demonstrates that love and care and which is good for both of us.
Nor does this mean that disagreements are always solved there and then. Sometimes a resolution takes many conversations over many months, or even years to discover. Sometimes a resolution that we thought was right turns out to be wrong, and we need to go back to the start and find a new solution.
And while there are times of heated discussion between us, we have both come to realize the importance of not letting old stuff get in the way of finding a new resolution.
So, what do you want from your relationship? Are you willing to settle for mediocrity or would you like your relationship to be defined by passion?
And maybe an even more important question to ask yourself is this: are you willing to do whatever it takes to create your own “happy ever after”? If you are you are in the right place to begin an incredible journey of self-discovery in which all of your relationships will become the better for it.
