In the pantheon of human emotions, love stands as the most prized experience. Love is a powerful and liberating feeling. One that you can feel radiating throughout your body. Love is a light that can shine brightly from within, even when you are alone. Love is also a light that emanates between two people when the magnetic feeling that pulls them together has been tested and proven to be undeniable.
Love is an energy that motivates us into action. It helps the mind see clearly and selflessly. It helps you organize a clear list of what is and is not important. Love helps you come in contact with your strength and courage. It helps you say the things you were once afraid to voice.
Love is not something small. It is the energy of love that often changes lives and even history. Love has the power to break down walls and open doorways. It also has the power to preserve, create boundaries, and make tough calls. Love is deeply personal and highly situational. The way one person loves themselves can be totally different from how another activates self-love in their life. The way one couple expresses love can be miles apart from the next. Even though love can look different for many, it still has that warm feeling of safety and freedom when it is brought to life.
One of the biggest things to overcome so that love can flow better between two people is attachment. The human mind has this powerful drive to crave for things to exist in a manner that is to our liking, but sometimes this drive will go from being an unproblematic desire into an attachment that has gathered so much mental tension that we feel upset when things diverge from what we initially imagined.
The drive to set things up the way we like them can become possessive if it remains unmanaged. Love is meant to support the feeling of freedom when in the presence of your partner, but attachment can squander that feeling when we consistently demand things to happen the way we want them to.
Forcing, control, possessiveness, manipulation – these are all variations of attachment. They are clear blocks that stop love from flowing and they create pressure on a relationship in a way that eventually breaks the connection.
