True Love In Expression

By Johnnie S Laney

You know, most of us relate to true love like it is an emotion. A private inner feeling. And sometimes it is an inner feeling that we feel the need to protect or hide from the object of our love. Like if we express it we are vulnerable and we might get rejected or it might not be fully reciprocated.

However, what if you related to your true love like a beacon or lighthouse? A light or radiance to be shined and spread as often as you could? Something to be given fully rather than held inside, to light the world around us? An emotion best turned into as many loving acts as possible?

Then you may discover that the more you give your love away by expressing it directly, the more it gets replenished and returned. When you are feeling the gift of true love, find ways to express it and give it away freely, without attachment to what you might get back.

The point is to turn true love into expressed action in your life. Show it. Shine it from the rooftops. Express it directly.

How can you do this? There are many ways, but one good way is to listen. Listen to your mate or love like your life depends upon it. Focus completely on what they are saying. Listening in this way is a powerful gift to give to another person. Making them feel heard and understood when they share with you is a very generous and nurturing act.

Another powerful way to turn true love into action is with direct eye contact. Drink them in, looking them right in the eye, as you converse. The eyes are the windows to the soul. Amazingly, studies show that direct eye contact fades in relationships over time. Don't just look at the area of the eyes, make direct eye contact and see how that feels for you and your mate.

And then of course a powerful expression of true love is touch. Not just sexual touch, but outside the bedroom. Just brushing their arm, giving hugs, these are direct expressions of affection that touch the heart easily.

Express true love with these simple actions. Listen. Look. Touch. There are many more ways to turn your love and light into action, but this is a powerful foundation. Shine your light of love into the world and see what difference it can make for everyone around you.
