Thoughts on Love

Tina: How 'bout CJ's post yesterday? Ha. Confused me too. Haha.

This is about to get a little personal here so allow me some non-judgemental space :)
CJ and I have been working a lot on ourselves as individuals and as a couple here. We had a cool epiphany yesterday that I'm going to attempt to explain:

There's a "letting go" and a "going towards" kind of love. Both need to be in balance.

Letting go loving is the kind of love that is quiet. Creates space. Doesn't ask where are you going and why. Trusting and loving thru small gestures like doing the dishes or holding the other person. The kind where your sitting in bed reading and don't have to look up from your book to feel loved.

Going towards love is fiery. Action based. Surprising the other person. Passionate, endless, over the moon kind of gestures. Active communication and expression of looove.

By nature, I'm more inclined to go towards where CJ naturally lets go. These are both great and valid forms of love! We've been trying to practice the kind that doesn't come as easy (CJ: in hopes of creating a positive feedback loop of love) This is a recent view of loving, not the end-all-be-all. Some thoughts that we are carrying lately.
