Love transcends all physical reality; it is not in words, definitions, labels or need. Love is accepting someone as they are without trying to change or control them and without judging them. Love is being able to feel the beauty and joy of what you share with someone even when they are physically absent from your life. It knows you may not forever be with someone; nonetheless the love will always be there. One way I put this when talking to people about unconditional love is; when someone dear to you passes away, does the love also pass away? The majority of people would answer this with a no, so why is it that when we care deeply about someone but they cannot be with us for whatever reason, we doubt their love and feel this person needs to be by our side for it to really be love?
By having need we are not really being open to the splendour of love and happiness. Most of us have felt at some point in our life that we would die without our significant other, the one, our other half. The truth is that all humans are complete. We go through life trying to find happiness from external sources, sources we can see. Happiness and love are there inside everyone, we just fail to notice it because we are so caught up in the physical world and have forgotten that multiple layers of reality exist simultaneously.
Don’t get me wrong, I am not trying to say relationships are a negative thing; they can be something very amazing. My point is that relationships should be about sharing the love from within you, not about trying to posses someone else’s love because it is not something that can be possessed or owned. I guess this is what happens when we only see the physical world; we try to turn love into a form and feel we can own it like we own our homes, cars and pets.
