“Passion in Relationships”


“Nothing great in the world has ever been accomplished without passion.”
Hebbel quotes (German Poet and Dramatist, 1813-1863)

In your search for your passion sometimes you will find new and exciting experiences will come into your life that you thought you were lucky to bring into your life. How wonderful it feels to love and be loved, how wonderful it feels to know someone cares about your being, your existence! Wow life doesn’t get much better than that???

Love can move you in ways one could never know, actually experiencing the feeling, the energy. Wow how cool is that!~ However the flip side is the hurt you can feel by the one you loved/love. Amazing what emotions you can feel and how they can or you think they can control your actions.

A dear friend of mine who has been married for 20 some years really shows how love can take many turns, many events, some that one would think unforgivable/unforgettable. She really has taken me through some experiences that I don’t think I would be as strong as her nor have the tenacity to take the high road. Her passion lies in her love for her husband first then in her business deals to round her out, “Thank you”.

Another friend of mine, crazy as this may sound was pregnant with her 2nd child when she found her husband was having an affair and he decided it was time to leave his happy home for his new found lover. This is crazy but she took her hatred, distaste for his dishonesty and turned it positive. She is creating one of the most sought after communities. I am so proud of her and inspired by her, thank you!

So, how lucky am I to get a really good lesson on someone I dreamily thought would never hurt me. Pause as a couple tears fall and I regroup! Ok, better now…

However it comes down to the action you take to move your situation forward, the where with all to know when you are stuck to reach out and get help. Help from a friend, a coach, prayer or some other avenue; we never know where the answer/s may come from.

Well recently I had the opportunity to experience taking my emotions of deep resentment and move them to ones of passion and love for someone that has hurt me. The key is to have love and passion for that person, and remember what a bad spot that “person” must have been in to do what they have done/do.

Stand back and know you did not do the action, no reason to think about why as that is not important and is a mind mingles in others words, no need to think it is because of you and hurt yourself.

You are a beautiful person just as you are and there is only one of you to share in this world. So, the next time you get a minor distraction that hurts, send that person love and passion and hope the best for them, this will come back to you in ways that will make you smile and let you know you are blessed.

“Courage is the discovery that you may not win, and trying when you know you can lose.” Tom Krause quotes ( motivational speaker, Teacher and Coach, b.1934)
