It is at the edge of a petal that love waits ~ William Carlos William
Love has many meanings and for the most part we tend to get caught up in its complexities and try to be too many things to too many people. We lose our sense of balance and we either take more than we need or we give away far too much of our self, our very essence. We tend to look beyond the obvious, that Love begins with us. Once we make that deeper connection to self we realize the power of self love. To truly give our love to others we have to first love ourselves and when we put it into practice then and only then will we experience an awakening.
Our life path seemingly rickety and likened to a skeleton stretched across a barren land but in that moment of awakening, there love waits.
Beautifully written Grady. That search we all do most of our lives not realising that happiness and love will only arrive on our doorstep when we look within and find the fears that are blocking that very thing ❤

Hey Grady!
I am not sure if you are into Greek Mythology but learn about the love story of Eros (Cupid) and Psyche. It is about trusting love and having faith in love.Hope you enjoy!
