The one thing that will make every relationship better for you
When most people think of love, they think only of intimate love.
Love is defined as “an intense feeling of deep affection.”
Notice it doesn’t say “only to other humans.”
It goes so much deeper than that.
The fundamental purpose of life is to love.
To express love. To receive love. To foster intimate love. To appreciate the beauty of life is love.
Think about it…if you don’t have love you are always striving for it.
If you strip away all of the human constructs we have created, its just us, the animals, and the trees.
We’d have to forage and hunt and build shelters in the wild.
No striving for more money. No climbing the corporate ladder. Just living.
How do you begin to operate from a place of love?
Remember your life is short and really ask yourself what is important.
My favorite thing to do to remind me how small I am and to appreciate life is go in the forest to observe and listen to all the life around me.
The whole ecosystem is insane.
Watch the trees sway in the wind and listen to the birds talk to each other. Bring a notepad and just write your thoughts.
This isn’t an overnight transformation, but a gradual reframing of the mind to appreciate life.
Expressing love is the most meaningful thing you can do.
Not just intimate love, but an overall expression of love and appreciation for everything life is.
None of the stuff I’ve made up in my head really matters.
All that matters is I love every day of the journey, love myself, love my wife, and love the gift of life.
