Rise in Love

For the week of Valentine's Day...



Rise in Love



Evolved

Over time,

we come to understand

love’s true nature

After years of falling, hurting,

getting back up and trying again

We finally understand

that we do not fall in love

We rise in love



When we rise in love,

it is not a helpless feeling

or an out of control feeling

It is arriving at a new consciousness

Feeling a deep connection with our other

A vibration in the heart radiates throughout the body

We see our reflection in their eyes mirrored back at us

The light in us recognizes and honors the light in them

We find that we want their every happiness, their highest good

We’ve got their back and we want them to succeed in all things

When they suffer, we want to wrap them in healing warmth

Giving to and doing for them brings us great satisfaction and joy

We find our heart more open than ever to receive all of this in return

We don’t wish to attach ourselves to them or hold them on a tether

But to sail or fly along by their side, enjoying the shared journey

Realizing that we are making each other’s lives even larger than before

Physical intimacy can be shared or transcended

The experience of rising in love itself feels far greater, enduring

No hurt results from rising in love

Even if one day there may be a divergence of pathways, and a graceful letting go

But the love shared is everlasting, forever a part of us,

contributing to our continuing evolution

As we continue to rise
