And the amorous beat keeps playing on...

Still stuck on like, love, admiration, and such and such, I had a conversation with a very special guy last night (who needs to date me *grin*). Anyway, I got this email forward from Love...

"Every lover feels that something is missing, because love is unfinished. It is a process, not a thing. Every lover is bound to feel that something is missing. Don't interpret this wrongly. It simply shows that love in itself is dynamic.

Love is just like a river, always moving. In the very movement is the life of the river. Once it stops it becomes a stagnant thing; then it is no longer a river. The very word river shows a process, the very sound of it gives you the feeling of movement.

Love is a river. So don't think that something is missing; it is part of love's process. And it is good that it is not completed. When something is missing you have to do something about it - that is a call from higher and higher peaks. Not that when you reach them you will feel fulfilled; love never feels fulfilled. It knows no fulfillment, but it is beautiful because then it is alive forever and ever.

And you will always feel that something is not in tune. That too is natural, because when two persons are meeting, two different worlds are meeting. To expect that they will fit perfectly is to expect the impossible, and that will create frustration. At the most there are a few moments when everything is in tune, rare moments.

This is how it has to be. Make all efforts to create that intuneness, but always be ready if it doesn't happen perfectly. And don't be worried about it, otherwise you will fall more and more out of tune. It comes only when you are not worried about it. It happens only when you are not tense about it, when you are not even expecting it - just out of the blue."
