i thought when i was young that a love life meant romance, a man and sex. i've changed my mind. a love life is a life lived with passion and genuine love. it is exuberance. it is sensual and tactile. it is giving. but it doesn't necessarily mean a romantic interlude or marriage or anything of the sort.
my life is fuller than before. it is genuine. it is a time of being able to get filled up and being able to give from the filling rather than trying to force something.
i can truly say that even in the mundane, the difficult, the trouble, the worry, the good byes, the heartache....that my "love life" is better than it was during my marriage. because i have real relationships. transparent. i am able to be true with my kids. not bad mouthing someone else, but true about how i am.
and maybe that's what makes a successful love life.....learning to love who you are and how you are and learning to run with those giddy feelings that bring ecstasy rather than always having to button down what you love and are interested in and trying to fit into everything.
my love life is wonderful. though i share it with no romantic interest at this point. :) i love living. i love life. i love the fact that i have survived this very difficult year and a half. love it.
everyone should get a love life.
