I just want to give you something really short and really special. It’s that time of year, when people start to think about love more and you know Valentine’s comes up.

Around emotional and romantic love there’s just so much hurt there is so much debate, so many problems that come up, yet it’s one of the things that just drives us and we need it and we want it so much in our lives.

There’s a quote from Liam Neeson that was posted, one of my friends posted and it was very popular going around a lot on Facebook and it’s about those things that love is not, “Love is not the loneliness, love is not the hurt, love is not the jealousy, it’s not the envy” and I’d like to add a whole list of other things that it is not, it’s not the demanding, it’s not the imposing, it’s not the limiting, it’s not the exclusiveness that so many people tend to associate with love and all the hurt that comes when they don’t get what they think love is.

The thing about love is that a lot of people are looking for it outside themselves and when those things fail or change or don’t work, they see that as love being bad, love hurting and love going wrong.

A lot of people just don’t realize that love starts from within, it starts from a real acceptance and a real deep understanding that we are in those people out there, but that love comes from inside of us and not from those people. (Read Love Your Body)
