I love you. This is plutanic love, it’s not romantic or sexual and the fact that I have to clarify this says alot about our social and cultural construct of love. For the purpose of this post, I think I should clarify that to me love is love and loving another soul/person is never wrong nor something you should try to hide.
Being an expressive person I have the urge to tell people I love them whenever the feeling of love gets too overwhelming for me to keep inside, but because our social norms don’t allow for spontaneous expressions of love to take place without it somehow being tainted or labelled, I find myself biting my tongue more often than I like.
I love alot of people, alot of souls. Some more than others, not because of favouritism but because of experiences I’ve been able to share with them and the role in which they have played in my life. But often the strength of my love is not defined by the length of time which I have known a soul, rather more so on the impact they have had on me.
Feeling the overwhelming sense of love all the time, I find it unnatural to keep all these feelings inside. I think there is nothing more important in life then to love and to be loved, I also believe that we are each messengers of love. How powerful to know that at any point in time you can send a powerful energy like love into another souls sacred place or into the world. Now imagine that. Magical.
So why don’t we walk around telling everyone that sparks our soul that we love them? Why don’t we celebrate this feeling, knowing that we are made of love, we are love itself, so it’s only natural to feel love and recognise love in another soul. I recognise that perhaps not everyone feels this way and that’s ok. But for those of you who can resonate with this thought, I invite you to be courageous in expressing your love; know that expressing love is a form of gratitude that you display in response to recognising someones worth.
I will take my first step in expressing this love into the world by professing my love to the souls in my life whom have impacted me, shaped me, loved me, cared for me, taught me, showed up for me and or simply been real with me- so here goes.
I love how amazingly beautiful you are in every way and how much strength you have despite your challenges. I love how you make me laugh when you’re around and how you talk sense into me when I can’t think straight. I love how you can be a million things to me simply by being your one true self. I love how you’re so unique and special to me and so many others. I love how you stay calm and focused. How you make those around you feel and how you stay gracious no matter what.
I love you. You who are everything and everyone to me. You who is now a part of me and whom I can’t seperate from myself no matter the space or distance between us. I love how you inspire me, connect with me and give away your precious time to me. I love how you listen and how you advise. I love how you’re loyal and an angel in disguise.
I love you amazing souls, for being your authentic selves. For allowing me to feel this way in and around your presence and for showing me how much love I have to give.
I love alot of souls and I know I will love many more. What a beautiful thought that is to have.
Love Always,
Miss Dreamer
