I'm just tired of writing about relationships. My intention before wasn't so much to focus on that of "romantic" relationships but any type of connecting relationship - to one's self, friends, world, family. It makes sense why male/female relationships permeated my writing - my adventures as a single woman fueled a somewhat obsessive yearning for knowledge and over-analysis. I'm over it now. In fact, I can sum up the most important things to know about dating and romanticalness:
1. Anyone who wants you to be a part of their life will make an EFFORT for you to be.
2. Seeing that you don't have any major personality issues or psychiatric disorders, if he's not doing the simple things to show he's genuinely interested in you (and this counts for relationships TOO) - like asking you out, calling you at a decent hour or wanting to know the real YOU - he's not interested. Move on. Plain and simple. No need to analyze or excuse his lack of behavior.
3. No one will fill the void of missing self-love and acceptance except for you.
I've always thought life had a bigger meaning than all the little worries that we weave into our everyday lives. When I hurt my knee, I indeed had an epiphany - there's something bigger and more soul-satisfying out there. I wanted to use some of my passion towards a more enlightening and peaceful realm of study; a search for the innate questions and ideas that most people overlook on the quest towards materialism and glory. So I've decided to ramp up my long-held curiosity about the many facets of spirituality with the intent to question, reflect and share not only my ideas but those I come across by others through happenstance. It's amazing what you can find when you just throw your questions into the world. :) Developing the mind and soul is an aspect of health overlooked by the majority of people, or at least, not deeply practiced. I truly feel that by "working out" these inner facets, all other facets of my physical self will not only improve but find balance and happiness.
There is deep wisdom within our very flesh, if we can only come to our senses and feel it. ~Elizabeth A. Behnke
