Falling In Love !

FALLING IN LOVE It is a mystery why we fall in love... It is a mystery how it happens, It is a mystery when it comes, It is a mystery why some love fails. You can analyze this mystery and look for reason and causes But you will never do anymore than take the life out of experience Just as life itself is more than the sum of bones and muscles And electrical impulses in the body Love is more than the sum of interest and attractions And commonalities the two people share. And just as life itselfes is a gift that comes And goes in its own time So too, the comming of love must be taken As unfathomable gift That cannot be questioned in itys ways. Sometimes, hopefully At least once in your life The gift of love will come to you in full power And you will take hold of it and celebrate it In inexpressible beauty This is a dream we all share. More often, it will come and take hold of you celebrate you for a brief moment And then move on... When this happen to young people They too often try to grasp the love And hold it to them Refusing to see that it is a gift that is freely given And a gift that justb freely moves away. When they fall out of love Or the person they love feels the spirit of love leaving They try desperatly to reclaim the love that is lost Rather than accepting the gift for what it was Then ... moving on. They want answeres where there are no answers They want to know what is wrong with them That makes the other person no longer love them Or they try to get their lover to change Thinking that if some small things were different Love will bloom again They blame their circumstances And say that if they go far away and start a new life together Their love will grow. They try anything to give meaning to what has happened But there is no meaning beyond the love itself And until they accept its own mysterious ways they live in a sea .. of misery You need to know this about love And to accept it, you need to treat What it brings to you with kindness If you find yourself in love With someone who does not love you Be gentle with yourself There is nothing wrong with you Love just didnt choose to rest in the other person's heart. If you find someone else in love with you And you dont love him Feel honored that love came and called on your door But gently refuse the gift you cannot return. DO NOT TAKE ADVANTAGE. DO not cause pain How you deal with love is how love deal with you And all our hearts feel the same pains and joys Even if our lives and ways are different If you fall in love with another And he falls in love with you And then love chooses to leave Do not try to reclaim it or assess blame let it go There is a reason and there is a meaning You will know...in time. Remember that you dont choose love Love chooses you All you can really do is accept it for all its mystery When it comes to your life Feel the way it feels you to overflowing Then reach out and give it away Give it back to the person who brought it alive in you Give it to others who seem poor in spirit Give it to the world around you anyway you can. This is where many lovers go wrong Having been so long without love They understand love only...as a need They see their hearts as empty places that will be filled with love And they begin to look at love as something that flows to them Rather than from them The first blush of new love is filled to overflowing But as their love cools They revert to seeing their love as a need They cease to be someone who generates love And instead become soemone who seeks love that it is a gift And can be made to grow Only by ... giving it away REMEMBER this...and keep it in your heart Love has its own time, its own season And its reason for comming and going You cannot bribe or coerce it Or reason it for staying You can Only embrace its warmth and glow it when it arrives And give it away when it comes to you But if it chooses to leave from your heart Or from the heart of your lover Ther is nothing you can do and there is nothing you should do Love has always been and will always be ...a MYSTERY. And when we close our eyes and listen to the echoes of our hearts We will know that love never left us It will always be there in our hearts Be glad that it came to live for a moment in your life. IF U KEEP YOUR HEART OPEN IT WILL COME AGAIN!!
