I Love You

unconditional love

“I love you,” is a sacred thing to say. We whisper our love to soul mates, and only hint at the deep love we feel for our parents and best friends.

Would it then be strange to hear me say that “I love everyone?”

I do though. I love you all. Each and every one of you has your own personal brand of beauty, and I love you dearly for it.

Strength, beauty, and goodness, is in everyone. I get it. I see it. I feel it. It stretches itself to be seen. No matter how overwhelmed you are with anger, stress, addiction, distraction, and sadness — your beauty, goodness, and light, is undiminished.

It was there before you were born and regardless of how you live your life it will be there after you are gone. It is your essence — your true self — and it is what I love and see in your presence.

So there you have it. I have confessed. I am deeply in love with you.

My wish is that you can see and understand why I feel this way; that you will see yourself for who you really are; that you will sense the magic within, and feel the light and beauty that lives, breathes, and creates, in your soul.

These are the aspects of you that I love, and I want you to love them too.

You are truly beautiful.

Are you willing to take one small but powerful step? Continue reading →

Are you married to or dating a person that controls you with emotional drama?

Is your partner so out of touch with themselves that the only way they can feel in control is by externalizing it; by trying to control you with their moods, their purposeful silence, and emotional outbursts? Continue reading →

Freeze-Framed Relationships

Do you unintentionally imprison your spouse, or your girlfriend or boyfriend, with how you define them — or can they grow unrestricted by your conceptions and expectations?

Good relationships should be free to change, explore, and mature, without the drag of “the way we were.”

If you hold tight to fixed conceptions of your partner, you are holding them back from who they are becoming. They need to grow, and they can’t if you continually project your expectations that they remain the same. Continue reading →

Two Simple Steps to Mend a Marriage

Relationships are a heck of an arrangement aren’t they? They are the easiest things to get into, and the hardest to get out of.

And they are so complex. Have you noticed that? One moment you are crazy in love with this gorgeous person, and in the next, you find yourself cringing every time he lumbers across the room that you so gracefully waltz through, not knowing that his stomping gate is just his way of saying that he hates the way you emotionally castrate him.
