Love - Living for Each Other.

I know that it probably sounds naive, but for me I thought that love was about people living for each other and not for themselves.
What I mean is that I wanted to live for her, the woman who loves me.

I wanted to share each day with her, to wake up snuggled next to her in bed,
and to share sexual contact and make love, to help each other in the morning prepare for the day while chatting, laughing, challenging each other, and being the best of friends.
And if a sad moment came we would be there for each other, always, and always encouraging, but also pushing the other forward,
and the end result is that no one is the winner, none above the other, none better than the other,
but both in the same feeling of accomplishment even when the other does something great,
 because both helped each other and the other couldn’t have made it without them.

Sex would be there, and it would be nice, and it would be something that both enjoyed after much discussion, adventure, and loving.
There would be no need to fantasize of others and no need to desperately try to satisfy the other,
because love making was not only in the bed, it was satisfied in our whole lives together,
and therefore the satisfaction and loving was delightful from our spiritual love for one another.

The goals in life were happiness and happiness was the journey.
Other people, they were important, but no other should would ever be close enough to interfere in the relationship that God put together.
And yes, there would be arguments, but as Billy Graham said, God gave him Ruth and they were going to work it out.

You see, there is something really special about being included in the other half’s life.
Not just sitting there while they talk with their mates, but put before all others.
Knowing that we have a place in life, a place in another’s heart and soul, is enough to remove all that desperation for love,
and removes insecurities, and there is no anxiety that the other will leave, because we know in our heart that our place in the other’s heart is secure, set in stone, God’s way, solid as a rock.
Happy to be together, happy to have someone, happy to feel secure, safe, loved, and complete.

I have never been this special to anyone, and that was what I wanted, ever since I was a child.
The trouble with modern times is that all people cry about love, feel sad about love, cry over love, but they don’t act it out, they crave but don’t do.
They are all materialistic minded, and they know that they have this craving within for something (love)
and they fill that craving with things, sex, drugs, parties, alcohol, but not love, because they know not love so they can’t have it.

Its like the Good Samaritan. He helps a soul he knows not. He pays for his health care.
This guy could be a bad person, could have a bad past, a rapist, pedophile, male prostitute, druggy, wife beater etc,
but the Samaritan helps him well knowing that the past and life of this person does not matter, he only knows that this person needs love and help,
so he gives it, pays for it. He does not care about the persons past (same as us in marriage) he cares for this person’s well being
and hopes that his genuine compassion, love and help will show this person another away.

Like one day she is doing something in the kitchen, chatting to him he is doing something else, and the she stops and a thought hits her,
and stops her in her tracks, she looks at him, and then realizes that she is home, the place in her heart that she has always wanted to be.
But home is not a place or house, it is love with someone who loves her just as equally, fairly, innocently and gently as she loves him,
Home is where the heart is most happy and she is finally home, her place of peace, her safe haven, this home is her life, his too, with God looking over their little new family.

Home is where the loving is, a place of spiritual belonging, a place where one knows that they belong, a place where they can be their natural self and enjoy a relaxed state of being so much so that they never want to leave – it is love, God’s way.
Two souls entwined in love, they become one.
