The Language of Love


Does not always speak in English.  Sometimes it takes on the eloquence of intuition but more likely love manifests itself in the solar plexus. Most might think it resides in the heart but the solar plexus gives me the most visceral of all feelings.  When you love someone it starts in the throat and radiates downward.  The heart is the mythical residence of love because it sells Valentine’s Day cards.

  We don’t always feel love for the one we love but that doesn’t mean that we don’t love them.  Once in awhile the feeling of love takes in hibernation as a retreat from itself because love can be  like a sharp knife it can cut and cut deep.  When love makes us bleed the one way the the wound  is healed is by  hiding beneath the rock of temporary numbness. 

The language of Love is still spoken in English when we say I love you but we all know that even when it’s unspoken it’s still the most powerful force on earth.

  1. What the heck is love anyway? Is it compatibility, or affection or desire, or passion . Is to love the same as being in love. I think not. We may love many people in many different ways, But few of us are in love with more than one person at a time. Love is gentle and caring. It is nonjudgmental . It allows the object of ones affection to be who and what they are. It allows them to fly in the wind, to be free. Love is not centralized in anyone body part it is all encompassing it consumes your entire being. It becomes a spirit within you that is a God given gift to be cherished.
