Falling in Love - A Sacred Spiritual Journey

Falling in love is Sacred

It’s also

💜 Warm and fuzzy

💜 Sweet and serene

💜 Exciting and exhilarating

It used to take over my whole world

I would change the trajectory of my life to chase this feeling

I would drop everything to get the dopamine hit of being with who I was falling in love with

I would let go of all sense and sensibility just to experience the whirlwind and passion of falling in love

The chasing, the fantasising, the raw primal desire of a wanton “sexually unrestrained woman” (not Chinese dumpling 🥟 😂)

And girl, let me tell you it has all been amazing

But with it came a lot of drama, addiction, abuse, toxicity and co-dependent trauma bonding

The roots of which lie within my childhood sexual trauma.

The family system in which I was raised plays a part too.

This is what I am learning as I continue to walk my emotional healing journey

I remember I felt something had shifted within me when the sight of a flower, a sunset, the touch of the ocean breeze on my face, the ripples of the water against my skin gifted me this feeling of falling in love

I realised I didn’t need to look or chase or depend on anyone to give me love

I had read and understood theoretically love is all around

Now I could feel it. It became a reality

Life hasn’t been the same since

Until recently, when someone touched my heart and ignited a new flame within me

The flame of curiosity

So I have chosen to allow myself to fall in love with another, again, so I can practice what love is

It’s scary beyond words because I have never been here before

To fall in love consciously

Love is Vulnerable

Love is Safe

Love is Fearless because Love is presence

And when we are present there is no fear of the past or the future

Love is confidence

Love is Faith

Love is a Spiritual journey

Love is a dance with another

Love is when you accompany each other on this incredible journey of life, witnessing, honouring and loving each other for who we are in each present moment without trying to change, rescue or fix the other.

Why? Because our uniqueness is a Divine Creation. We are creation in motion. A Soul having a human experience. Our very Being is a gift to the world and each other. Can we bear witness to the sweet poetry in motion of our natural existence?

Loving relationships are spiritual collaborations where the way you mirror each other is both blissful and bruising. Blissful to the soul and bruising to the ego.

Love is knowing that we are each a unique expression of love to be respected and held as sacred.

As we learn to dance with each other in the flow of life, challenges are met with compassion, struggles met with serenity, resistance with resilience

When you start to uphold Falling in love as a Sacred Spiritual Journey, there can surely be no higher plane of existence

Thank you for accompanying me on this rollercoaster 🎢 ride

Love is the only energy,

Warm love always,
