Romance
Is the
Sweetest enchantment
Of love
There is
No stronger longing
Or powerful potion
To sooth any pain
Or affliction
It arouses passions
Like an addiction

Love can be just that, addictive.

For some, it turns into an obsession.

For others, it is a fine line keeping one's
feelings away from hate.

Love is many things...and highly special in all forms.

Yes, EBM.  …and romance can not be found in someone else or some place else until we first find it dwelling in the heart.  That is well, because with romance in the heart, we can make anyone and anything we find romantic and make it literally shimmer with magic and romance.  We don’t have to find the right person, we only have to BE the right person and then the right person will find us.  So we don’t have to depend on somebody else to “do” us.  Instead, we have absolute control of our romantic love life.  When we hold romance in our hearts, the magic potion that gentles and buffers us against the hammer blows of life, the universe is a golden apple, every creation becomes a living wonder, and life is an endless series of enchanting wonders.
Every rock, every flower and every tree is a living proof of the divine dwelling in all things.
How sad, you know, that there are so many desperately lonely people running and bouncing around from one destructive relationship to another suffering needlessly  looking for love in all the wrong places, never find it and don’t realize that the beauty we attribute to things in the world, in the sky and in the stars is but a projection of the beauty radiating from within.
It’s not their fault that they don’t know this.
Maybe we can help them understand.
Okay, I thought I wasn’t going to do more writing today huh?
Grrrrrrrrrf.
He sends you all his heart.

Romance can indeed be addictive.  But we need to seperate true love from romantic love for romantic love can be fleeting.

Earl- Romance can also be something a person intentionally feeds their relationship with to keep it fresh and avoid ruts and taking the other person for granted. ebm
