Love Remains the Same.

In response to one of my favorite songs by Blaze, Love Remains the Same, I felt inspired to share my latest learnings in romance and love.

That even in our closest relationships, we as individuals need to remain ourselves. Commonly spoken, yet consider this: If there is no you to relate with, than who is your partner going to make a connection with?

Said differently: If you have lost yourself in relationship, there can be no movement in relating because you need both partners for connection.

I found myself this last weekend, making a certain relationship really complex and in the end it came down to this simple fact: For the majority of my life I have been making my partners responsible for my happiness and livelihood. For as long as I can remember, I have been waiting for another person to "show up," until I can finally start living.

I have been living in "when," rather than "how."

So today, my dear friend, I toss to you: What magical condition are you waiting for that will finally give you the authority to create your life by design? And a more responsible way to put it: How can you give yourself permission today to create your life as you would like it, without waiting for an external change to occur? Try starting inside.

Today: I commit to celebrating my life and myself while having a blast.

Either way, Love Remains the Same.
