Is it easy to love?

I think its kinda funny that love is something most people want and yet so many people seem to find it illusive. However when one has love, ie, when one has that someone in their lives, they often spend so much of their time not loving that person.

Usually because that person has upset them, or has not loved them in the way they want to be loved.

I think alot of the time we have these illusions around love, as my friend Dr. John De Martini says they are lopsided illusions in other words, these lopsided illusions are a result of the fantasy and make believe that we experience in stories, media etc.

I sometimes wonder if the prince and princess fairytale is part of the lopsidedness. You see, I was raised with snow white and the 7 dwarves, cinderella, sleeping beauty etc. The trouble with these fairytales is the fact that we not only set ourselves up to be disappointed, we also set our men up to fail us.

Log in tomorrow for the story of Jack and Jill (clients of mine, believe it or not) and see how Jill's lopsided illusion was keeping love out of her life.

Until then
May the love be with you.
