#real commitment

🍁 Red Leaf Haiku by © John Clark Helzer

Love is experienced by our minds as a process, and it must be respected and given time to bloom under nature's law.  Love only requires 2 main components from you:  Respect and commitment to make it grow. Rushing into it doesn't really help it grow.  Love in relationships is like a muscle:  If you go to the gym a few times, you won't see results because the muscle fibers are working under your skin.   But if you faithfuly stick to your gym routine weeks or months, you will start to see results because now you can see your biceps growing.  Quiet your anxious mind and respect the process, then remain committed to the task of growing that affection, that love. Even the most heartbroken, depressed and shy among us can grow love.  It is for anybody willing to respect its process and commit to it.  Persist through the tough times, through the moments of self-doubt, through the anxiety and panic your mind creates at times.  That is how true love becomes stronger and conquers all.

What a commitment.  Religions do anything now-a-days to get new members.  It's inspiring really  🤔

Drunken cheesy pickup line was used. And my boyfriend, being the badass and harmless person that he is, was not DTF and told me immediately that something was up. A ridiculous story that unfolded because of her actions provided much laughter and conversation inspiration for us. I'm glad for that. Like, a million other things could have happened, but what do we do? We laugh, we tell our best friends, shake our heads at their unhappy and unsatisfied marriage, and spend the rest of the day in our content worlds. hazeandnostalgia, you're my favorite. Sleep well, darling. Your breathing calms me. Glad too for alicialaurens and nowoliviapryor for being our comedic ventilation system. XoxoX Finally, I'm glad I don't have to cut a bitch. ;) cuz I will.
