relationships are bittersweet

Ohhh that sweet grief…

The bittersweet pain that comes with the realisation that you have no control over your loved ones.

Why bittersweet? you may ask…

Well because life acquires its special taste when you realise it is finite.

The beauty of knowing that each minute of your relationship is sacred & unique and could be the last one.

The sadness of acknowledging that nothing in life is guaranteed.

The freedom that comes when you acknowledge this and dissolve into the abyss of nothingness.

A deep surrender into the forces of life itself.

We can do all the work and become a master of relating - and still not know what is coming.
We can be fully prepared, but are we ever ready?

I find that dissolving my ego’s control needs into nothingness.. & surrendering into the unknown, brings colour & passion into my relationship.

These are the moments when I am being the most present, the most alive, the most grateful.

Relationships aren’t granted.

Relationships are continuous nurturing of the space between the two people, along with the burning desire of being one, and recognizing that you can never be it.

Do you know what I mean?
