Why love and why now?
“Artist, poets, musicians, writers, we all need our muse. Thank You are my muse, who inspires me on this journey.”
There are many beautiful love stories out there, full of wonderful inspiring relationships. But there are also examples when falling in love becomes a quest, an obsession, turning into a need of possession due to the innermost insecurities of the conquistador. Someone who is trying to compensate for something they think they once had but lost, and wants to have that again. If anything comes out of such a quest, it often leads to an unhealthy relationship and an unhealthy marriage. It reminds me of what Jane Austen wrote: ‘Marriage can be an excuse for failures of character and the root cause of poor behavior.
Have you ever tried catching a fish with your bare hands? The tighter you squeeze the faster it will slip away. You may even try to fool a fish with a hand-tied fly, only to realize it was never yours to behold.
When you see a beautiful flower, when it moves you from within – you can admire that flower, you can smell it – you don’t have to pick it. You can enjoy her essence, let it be, thank the universe for the precious gift you have received, and smile again. Whatever your choice, strive to be the noble version of yourself. Show your innermost respect to the feminine in all its forms on Earth – respect the Shakti. Try your best not to abuse the sacred life giving power only to satisfy your selfish desires that offer momentary satisfaction.
Love is everywhere, like the air, overflowing in abundance, available to us all, to reach, to connect, to quench our inexhaustible thirst. You don’t always need another human being to feel love. Sure, it alters the experience, but there are so many venues and expressions where you can taste love. Even on your own, within. Love makes this world go round. It’s woven in the very fabric of existence.
When you go out for a walk, in nature, do you ever hear and notice bees buzzing in a flower? Have you ever seen their crazy dance, getting all intoxicated, and totally blissed out? Next time you notice, make sure you don’t disturb them; they get very pissed off if you do. 
Love is unattainable because it has always been there. Love is the glue that keeps everything together. You, me, the bees, and the flowers. Without love, there’s no life. Without life, there is no love. Loving life is living love because you have a heart that beats inside your chest. And for as long as you can sense that beat, you are the embodiment of love and life itself.
Your body can fall when your heart beats no more, but your spirit will rise, with all your love, showering the whole existence. Blessing all that has ever been, all there is, and all that is yet to be.
