The greatest gift of an intimate relationship is that it can give you YOU. It's the opportunity to discover yourself in the presence of the reflecting emotions of another person: in the mirroring of another person's awareness and at times through her frustrating lack of awareness. It is in this intimate human context that you begin to discover what you really do feel, what's important to you, what delights you, what has troubled you always, and what's troubling you now. Personally I love relationship....it is a emotional workout....i never stop growing.
In a way, love teaches me what it is to be a human being, not only thought my own feelings as they are endlessly evoked by my partner, but also through my experience of another person's uniqueness as it is endlessly revealed to me. Love always gives me exactly what I need---nothing more and nothing less. Real love can thrive only where realism is its waltz partner union fomr the day you fall in love until the day death parts you from it. There is no perfect 10 or perfect person. Being realistic about love means understanding that love will always ask the best of you. Trusting in this will give you confidence in the capacity to love to change adn enrich your life----even if it's in ways you never wished for or expected.
If you're willing to take the risk though, love can bring you incredible gifts ...for it did for me...grand feelings,...someone to wake up with in the morning...someone to cuddle up with at night...someone whose sorrows make your heart sad too. It teaches you about life's meaning.....it can raise questions about your destiny.
