Who is lucky enough to experience it?
Who is smart enough to embrace it?
Who is brave enough to let it blossom?
Step one: experience it.
It's easy.
You just enjoy the presence of others and learn from them.
Be interested in what they have to say and their way of seeing the world.
Step two: embrace it.
It's intriguing.
You travel, you spend more time with the people who make you happy.
Share memories, experiences, start bonding. You become vunerable.
Step three: let it blossom.
It's terrifying.
Accept to give your energy, time, feelings and emotions.
Let it grow inside you, it's a conscious decision this one.
Will you be brave and curious enough to see where it can bring you?
If you want to know in advance, you're mistaken from the start. This is the wrong starting point.
Accept the unknown adventure of love. For each person is a unique path.
A narrow path at first, maybe even steep, and you don't know what comes next.
Maybe it's going downhill and you can sing and dance your way in it.
Maybe it starts easy and it keeps being easy and not challenging, or not challenging enough.
Maybe it even starts as an asphalt road, continues as a hiking path and ends on a dried river bank. Dead end.
How the fuck do you want to know in advance?
Accept the risk, you're just a human.
And for that you can and should love.
(Wishing he would have sung this for me, the soundtrack of this time is:
"And you'll either love me or you hate me
'Cause I can see you've got no time for the in-between
But the reflection in your eyes gonna look so much better")
