Fall in love as many times as possible

In this lifetime, I want to fall in love as many times as possible. I want to fall in love with myself more and more every day. I want to fall in love with any experience I endure. I want to fall in love with others as much as I can. I want to fall in love with having the power to wake up in the morning and create the day I dream of.

Finding the “one” puts so much pressure on society that we aren't complete or whole without this “something.”

My mom has reminded me since I was a little girl that if you don't love yourself, no one else will be able to love you. She has never been so right.

The idea of falling in love can seem tricky and complex, but at the end of the day, real love is easy to partake in. It is hands down the best feeling in the world. There is no effort when the love is divine. I know the road can get bumpy but nonetheless, you know when you have hit the feeling of love; nothing will top it.

I am aware that being afraid of love is common because of the pain that may come after it. Stepping away from the greatest thing in life because of the chances of it ending poorly will be a life full of missing out on the most incredible feeling. Yes, at times, love comes with pain, but with love and pain comes growth. We are here to grow, challenge ourselves, and learn what sparks our soul.

Without the love I experienced from my boyfriend who passed away, I would be unaware of the blissful feeling love generates. Love heals all wounds. My relationship ended not like most, but all I can think about is the feeling we got when we would stare into each other's eyes. I could feel the love from him and he could feel the love from me.

To some, it is valid that I would be afraid to love again. Definitely, at the beginning of grieving, I never saw myself loving again. But then I realized how much love I have generated for myself over these many months and that is my indication that I am fully capable of loving again. It gives me the strongest hope of being able to share my authentic love again with someone.

You know, life will be difficult but pushing away the one thing that will save this world is sort of ignorant. Don't push away love because you are afraid of it and please don't push away love because you are scared to be vulnerable.

Vulnerability is a trait that runs high on my list.

Don’t just seek that one love, seek all that love

The world is waiting for you.
