The Difference between Universal Love and Romantic Love
July 30, 2008Romantic Love everyone knows about. It is that wonderful falling in Love feeling – where nothing else matters. Giddy, floating on air, life has never been better feeling. You only live until the next moment you can be with your Lover. Mmmmm. I can’t wait to Be in Love again.
But wait – what is Universal Love? Love your neighbor? Do unto others Love? Yes – kind of – but it is only the tip of the iceberg. What if we truly acted like we are living, breathing bodies of Love 24/7? You Are Love! See what happens. You have seen the bumper stickers and the tee shirt slogans…”What would (somebody) do?” Well how about “What would Love do?” Be Love as you walk around – try it for an hour at first…whereever you go and whom ever you meet…Be Love – What would Love do? Whether it is at a bank or a gas station or in the park…or in a traffic jam…Be Love. Expect nothing …absolutely nothing back. You will be amazed. The Love that can shine back will Light your Love flame! It will ignite your heart. I am not talking about Romantic passionate Love…yet I am. Bottom line there really is little difference in Universal Love and Romantic Love…at the core. Love is this delightful energy that can only grow.
Sometimes in an effort to Love, people do good for someone then expect something back in return – if they don’t get a “return”, this act of good gets disgruntled. This is true in Romantic Love also. When one really Loves…nothing is expected in return. When there is a return…a smile, a laugh, a thank you, a glimmer…LOVE… it is like payday at the slot machine…bells go off…lights twirl…your LOVE is magnified. Ok now let’s do the math. How many times would we get to Love another and get Love magnified back until the whole world was In Love?! You Love one…then they Love one..then they Love another…LOVE2 , LOVE365, LOVELOVE ! Won’t that be grand?
The world IN LOVE.
What if Universal Love gave you the very same giddy, floating on air, life has never been better feeling as the famed Falling in Love feeling? How cool would that be? We would not have to wait until the next lover in our life presented themselves to us – because everyone would be our Lover. It is addictive.
What if we treated everyone like they were Lovers??? How wonderful each day would be! Try this – you may find that it makes your Romantic Love relationship all the better.
YOU ARE LOVE…Be LOVE 24/7…We are LOVE Beings. Enjoy and delight in the giddiness of LOVE!
