How do You Know You Are Experiencing “Real” Love?
Sometimes you won’t, but more times than not it’s anything but love.
Love generally starts with a whole lot of what you aren’t used to, but never got.
It’s a desire, or obsession in a sense, to seek out in others what you think you need from them. But in reality, is buried some where in yourself, lost, hence why we seek it from the wrong people at times.
Love starts with a whole slew of things. One being, a healthy environment as a kid, so you know what’s really going on, when you don’t know what’s going on. Are you following my lead here?
Our catalyst to guide us is usually tainted with personal beliefs that aren’t our own. A delusion of love we were forced to believe exists in a world we were taught live.
But to find what “good” love is, most have to start with, what “good” love is not.
But the problem with that, people are ok with what it’s not, and have no desire to find out what it is. Hence why most settle.
Once you’re tired of feeling what it’s not, the shift will happen.
It will happen progressively slow, but it will start with you. And if you’re lucky, during this transition there will be a few people that enter your life to show what you knew existed, but wasn’t quite sure how to find it.
Not only in another person, but with the main person where it all starts.
You.
