 “The path of relationship deserves as much attention as we can give it. To be a fully integrated human, our abilities to have meaningful relationship with all life cannot be overvalued.  Relationships are a key component to understanding who we are. They are an invitation to embrace all that is. Relationships have taught me most of what I know about myself.

The most transformational knowledge I have learned has been in the realms of intimacy.  When the heart is open and defenseless you have a direct line to Source.  This is no game for sissies.  It takes real courage to allow someone to dance in your heart. Sometimes they wear heavy boots and stomp around so much you want to close up and never let them in again. Somehow most of us find the courage to love again. Most eventually attract someone who will bless us with their kindness and ability to heal all that has come before. Eventually we realize that everything we have experienced has been a component for our own enlightenment.

There is beauty in the grand design.

 To be given a life is the greatest gift. This life is filled with moments and there is nothing special about that except that is all there is.  Eventually we all come to the place of treasuring all these moments. Then our dialogue with the universe becomes very rich and personal.

I am a love coach. I encourage tattered hearts to have the courage to love again. I encourage people to stay open to the truth of love.  It is stalking us with every breath we take. No matter what we think we are saying the core of our communication says "love me". As I once saw scrawled on a wall somewhere said it so perfectly.

"If I were you, you would love me."

So that's the dilemma really, how to make ourselves lovable. Then the journey begins and you say to the Universe, “take me, I'm yours”.  When you gaze out into the starry sky with billions of star systems gazing back at you, breathe them into your heart. Then do the same with each person in your life. Notice the difference in the quality of energy in each interaction.

It's true that love takes no prisoners. It's a free will Universe. Totally experimental. We're all given one last instruction before we come out purple and gasping for air.  See what works! That's our predicament really. We all are at different stages of knowing what works.  It hardly helps to have someone tell us.  We seem to be designed to find the diamonds in our life as opposed to having them given to us. When was the last time someone walked up to you and said "would you like a diamond"? You usually have to dig for diamonds. I encourage people to get out their picks and dig. When someone discovers one and excitedly points hey check out this diamond!  I break the news. I say, you are one of those. Now your job is to polish that diamond. The fun part is we all get to do it together. I love my job.

But back to this relationship thing. It's really a business deal. The currency we use is generated in the heart and felt as love.. I believe it was Bob Dylan who said:  Don't underestimate me and I won't underestimate you.

The bottom line is honor and respect.  Breathe deep, relax, accept what you can, bless the rest. If the only way you can eat peas is with a knife, then by all means do it. But don't limit yourself.  Show off a bit. Use a straw. Shoot your television.  Get radical with what time you have left.  Carpe diem baby!

 Each relationship you have is a potential feast.  The art of relationship is really about using condiments effectively.  Don’t be offended if the meal isn’t up to par. A sprinkling of unconditional love can do wonders! If you don't like the waiter, realize he may not like you either. Don't take it personally. When it comes time to pay, insist on paying for the meal. If someone else insists, by all means let them buy!
