Re: to Purple Mermaid11

Hi - thanks for your time and pondering words - from what I know it's too many who is 'easy' in a relationship. I've experienced it, and I suppose you have experienced it and, many others also I would guess.

Our time has much stress and superficiality built into our minds (but in days of yore people could be superficial too) - and temptations pops up in so many variations today that we have to balance what's good for us. - I can't say afterwards that a relationship was real love or not, 'cause reasons that it broke up could be many, and how can I know it would have worked out otherwise, if I had evaluated and handled 'everything' another way? - that can easily be hindsight.

I believe love has to be worked with and, it's worked with if; I work with myself; my feelings and thoughts, my intuition, instincts and patterns. Values are important in a partnership and should be talked about with the one one lives together with ... talking is a key all the way and, openess is a matter of cource in the talking -  - genio

Re: to NiteTide

Thanks for your time and comments - how complicated are we as humans? I think we're so complicated that if we find one solution, we can be sure that it'll be another one, and another one etc ... the reason of falling in love in someone is (in my opinion) so complicated and individual that I don't have any answer ... but - I look at love as a force that we have to focus and take care of if we want it to last and be developed. We can easily underestimate the complex person we're in love with and just run our own show by manipulating and control because old past wounds within - and that can make us rush into being a workaholic (using the brain to find out life). - you said: "Is it really love then?" ... and who can tell if it's really love? - only the person who have this love feeling inside knows ... and then we're into knowing one's self and, that a life long road to walk -  - genio

Re: to jfm32

Thanks for comment - from what I undcerstand your words (correct me if I'm wrong) - it's good to begin by trying to recognize how much he/she care about the person he/she is together with, 'cause maybe the love has vanished? If it was a spark that later almost has disappeared then ... it has to be taken serious enough to be activated the way he/she wants it to be. Love is invisble but it can be strangled into being total invisible in our feelings, if we aren't aware -  - genio

Re: ggX, that is so true...Love gets filed away and forgotten if we're not

Thanks Rumored - it sounds like you have experiences in that direction. Maybe it can be said that if love vanishes it wasn't love but, who can know afterwards? Belated wisdom is fast to run out, and it may be very satisfying but ... I have to withdraw and say: who knows? -  - genio

Re: to sam444

Thanks, Sam - I believe love isn't something that should be taken for granted. We have to work with it by working with ourselves, all our aspects of arrogance, jealousy, greed etc.... yes, all this aspects that makes us impossible to live together with. It's too easy to fall into a trap where we excuse ourself and run away with some superficial justification - organizing it away with clever tricks etc ... and - love isn't a"brain-thing" ... ? - - genio

Re: to Harderup

Yes, you "got it" - and you've experienced it, as you say - some of your poems tell about good-bye ... and sometimes we can sit back, afterwards, and speculate: what did really happen? - was it me or ... didn't I appreciate him/her and what we had together? We can blame ourself or the other part or ... but, where did "love" go? (if it was love but, that's another discussion - and this love problem-issues are everlasting) thanks for your wise words -  - genio

Re: gg - to Troosha -

Hi - thanks for comment - agree, can't organize love, but the poem told to organize away love - then it tells that we may push love away 'cause we are too busy in pleasing our selves in one or another way: mostly to satisfy our ego -  - genio

Re: Organize love? - to Sunnybeach7

Thanks for your comment - organize love ? - to neglect it by doing other things that one may believe is more important and, then I mean other things is our focus on what best satisfy us in the moment ... and the ego is a master if we can't work out problems in our past that hinders us looking outside our own ego -  - genio

Re: to merkie

Thanks for comment - yes, sad ... what may be love in the beginning can be neglected and become "invisible" (not felt) in our feelings. It's many ways to neglect love but, I think by using the head instead of the heart is one our "sins" against love. We see it too much in our time where everything shall happen in a snap of a second and, our brain speed us ahead in self-satisfaction -  - genio

it could be that easy dear to blow it away if and only if such 'love' wasnt worth keeping nor remembering...however I do find it quite hard to obtain 'easy' in any aspect of love my friend...

Is it really that easy to tuck away love?  Is it really love then, because I find it too hard to put it away.  Maybe you'll have to just teach me.

As I read this poem I thought is was too easy, until I saw how it turned into its opposite vision: Things are easy to think about if you already located them. On the other hand, Love might need a deeper understanding, since it does not live in that form. So where do we begin?

Bury yourself in work or hobby, avoiding the chance of rejection but missing out on a great thing... been there, done that

Organize love?

How does that happen?

Sad indeed. Invisable is not felt by all.
