LOVE IS BLISS

What better way to start this article on Love Is Bliss, than by quoting from The Bible itself;

“Love, is patient, love, is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is, not rude it is, not self-seeking.
It is not easily angered; it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres.
Love never fails.”
I Corinthians 13:4-8

Ah! Yes love never fails, than what is it, that fails? Why so many relationships that have failed, have been attributed to the failure in love. Is it loved that has failed, or is it something else that has caused the relationship to fail.

Allow me to , follow up with another quote, from, Alfred Tennyson:

“I hold it true, what’re befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.”

Is it difficult to define love after all? The word love can refer to a variety of different feelings, states, and attitudes, ranging from pleasure to intense interpersonal attraction This diversity of meanings, combined with the complexity of the feelings involved, makes love unusually difficult to consistently define, even compared to other emotional states.

But then are we not complicating matters? Isn’t love about giving, the more you give, more in abundance you get it back, love is patient, it is kind, it never hurries you on, nor does it demand of you to keep in race with it, or for that matter with any one as such, it teaches you to be truthful to your self, in kindliness, in Godliness, it guides you on, goads you on, all the while nurturing your thoughts, fertilizing them with seeds of compassion and humility.

Do you really have to define love, if you think so, than the answer is within you, provided you really love someone, it is not self-absorbed or egoistic, go ahead ask yourself, have you ever been jealous of a person for any reason, whom you love, no of course not, one always rejoices in the accomplishments of the person whom you love, your personal sense of achievement heightens, you feel pride.

Or do we really get angry on our loved ones, if the gravity of the situation warrants then yes, but we always tend to see things in different perspectives when loved ones are involved, we are more pacifying, accommodating, definitely not to spoil them, but to make them realize about their follies, in a wider spectrum of understanding.

Love always has taught us to protect, trust, persevere and above all always hope, When you are full of hope and faith and enthusiasm, it is because you are imagining future circumstances. Hope is a full expectation of desirable things to come. Hope is one of the essential ingredients to a happy life, providing energy and enthusiasm in all your activities. If you expect massive abundance, you receive massive abundance.

I was taught to ask this powerful question daily and if need be hourly to myself, “Am I operating from a consciousness of love and abundance, or a consciousness of fear and scarcity?” Remember that the only time is now, and the present is your point of power. Most people spend over 95 percent of their life wanting to be somewhere else and sometime else.

Your life is now. Live it now. What we focus on grows. So please visualize, think, for what you want. To do that, you have to know what you want. Decide what you want. Yes, it does take effort and focus. But that is how hope works, how love teaches.

Yes, love never fails, the relationships have failed, those and only those relationships, which were, to start with, had not been based on foundation of love. After all LOVE IS BLISS, IS ECSTASY, IS HEAVEN, IS HAPPINESS, IS PARADISE, IS DELIGHT, IS HARMONY, and IS PLEASURE AND LIFE ITSELF.
