When it comes to love we often over complicate things
We get distracted by the excitement
The warm gooey feelings
The sex
And then we end up wrapped up in confusion over if this is something we should continue
Something we should end
Or even tolerate
But really it’s quite simple
If you’re involved with someone
Hooking up with
Dating
Situationship
Whatever it is
Close your eyes
Can you imagine having them spend the night in your space
Whatever the reality of your space is
Small apartment kids the ex still living downstairs
Can you imagine waking up to them on a regular not special exotic Saturday morning
Putting on whatever it is you do as your feet first touch the floor
Stumbling into the kitchen for coffee tea kombucha
And making breakfast
Pancakes toast chia seed pudding
Whatever your regular jam is
Can you truly honestly picture that person there
In your life
With your life
Living regular life moments
We often engage in these relationships that are exciting but unhealthy much longer than we would if only we brought more awareness to the reality of it
The Saturday Morning Test
It’s a different perspective
Often times we wouldn’t bring our Tuesday drink date home
We can’t picture that great sex sitting around the table with our kids
Or that off again on again relationship doesn’t seem like it actually fits our real lives
So we can reflect with honesty
With truth
Because while sex requires nudity
Saturday morning requires intimacy
Which aren’t always mutually inclusive
There’s another piece to this though
And that’s I’m a firm believer that we need to consciously experience what we’re meant to until our souls hit that breaking point
Until we are done with what’s truly not good for us
Until we no longer just need a someone but a one
And until we recognize what alignment truly means
So while love is never as complicated as we make it
We also have to be in the place to consciously see just how simple it really is.~
