What gets you excited about Love? Life? Lust?
Gosh, we women can never stop talking about these 3Ls. We would discuss, contemplate, complain, praise, wonder, cry and laugh about it all the time. We’d have hours of conversations over dinner and even after three chocolate martinis later, we still have no clue on how to deal with love, life and lust. Do we actually learn somthing from these endless discussions?
I learn the hard way.
I learn that if I want to experience love, I need to be the first one to show love and compassion to others – not just one or two people that I like or find interesting, but to every single being I encounter. Love attracts love! How hard is it to just be kind and smile to people? To look at another being in the eyes and show your respect and care?
Then, if I want to experience life to its fullest, I need to first show curiosity, interest and gratitude for life itself. What new things do I learn this week? What kinds of things I’m grateful for today? What do I want to discover this week? What can I contribute in my community? These are the questions that I need to live by and take action for my life to be fascinating and full.
Or, do I just want to experience pure and utter lust? An ego based action that will give me pure instant gratification with no care in the world. No care, no love.
So, sip your drink and look at the quality of your life this moment. Have you truly loved? Have you really lived? Have you lusted? What are your choices for the future? Trust me ladies, show, give and share more and you shall receive more! Go create miracles!
Just for today…
Think about how you love, how you live and how you embrace lust now and then. Have you really been honest?
