Being in love doesn't always mean the love between a man and a woman. Sometimes the love is between a mother and a baby. Sometimes the love is between a man and his dog and sometimes the love is between a woman and her chocolate cake.
Wherever that love comes from, you know what I am talking about. You know exactly what that feeling is. It comes from deep inside your soul. It gives you a feeling of overwhelming giddyness. You want to call all your friends and scream from the roof tops and tell them how excited you are. You think this feeling will be with you forever..You know it will. And then it happens....
There is a disagreement between couples, the baby wakes you in the middle of the night for no apparent reason, other than wanting to wake you up. The dog has chewed your favorite pair of slippers and that piece of chocolate cake has put 2lbs on yours hips and a pimple on your nose.
What does this tell us? Does it mean the end of love? This is where we have to make a choice. We have to choose to love. We have to choose to accept that we are not perfect. We have to choose that as part of a couple we have to listen and discuss things and make things right. As a parent we have to comfort our children until they can comfort themselves. We have to pet the dog and buy a new pair of slippers AND a dog bone and keep the slippers hidden and most important we have to learn to eat the chocolate cake because chocolate safes lives, and isn't that what life is all about!!!
