Love

    

        Love is a simple word, just four letters combined to define a complex feeling(emotion). For years, I was under impression that love is a mix of feelings, some like desire and passion that burn the soul and leave some deep traces into our souls, some like peace and summer breeze leaving us in a state of awe.

   I have been contemplating lately to past and  new relationships and what my definition of love would be.  Mostly, I've been thinking of one of my past relationships. I was invested heart and soul, with all the package. We went to a party and he got few drinks way to fast. Although, I was a few meters aways he was bragging to someone about how much I love him and I quote:

                "No matter what I do, Ana will never leave me. She loves me too much.".

      It was the moment I realized it was not love. It was anything else besides love. It was the moment I realized the relationship is at the end. It lasted tops two weeks from that moment.

      I always wanted someone to take into consideration my feelings before I would take them into consideration. The highest form of love would be how your actions impact your partner. For instance, if my partner goes drinking with his friend and the next day due to hangover we cancel our plans together, I would appreciate an apology from himself for not spending time before I have the chance to articulate a word about it.

      Before going into a relationship, find your love definition. You may start from love language and continue to how you want your partner assure you that you are seen and heard. Think of the highest form of love you may offer and you may receive. After you make the list, think if you are able to offer it back to your partner or if you still need to work on yourself.

HOME

       There has been so much going on in the last two weeks that I am not sure how to tell it to you. I went on two hikes both quite difficult while I was discovering so much about myself. On May Day, we started our trip to Brasov from Bucharest. On our way to what would be our home for a couple of days, we stopped at my mom's place. The entire time I felt like I am going home, home in a spiritual way. I felt so much gratitude for everything and everyone. This comes from a person that would only dream of feeling this.      Four years ago I was in a relationship with a person who would reflect every pain I have. I still remember to this day that we were gathered in his kitchen, his mom and dad and us. He was comfortably staying on the sofa, while I was discussing with his mom in his kitchen. I have it graved in my memories when he told smiling: " We are alike. You are a runaway. The only difference between you and I is that you also physically runaway ...

Love and growth

           I've been thinking for a while in writing about relationships. What I can tell you is that I never had an example of a healthy relationship in my entire family. I don't mention my parents relationship as they were not able to reach agreement on joint custody and visiting hours. I also mention the extended family.  I've been raised by a single parent and the hardships of a relationship were hidden from my eyes.           My friends mentioned to me that I am the Creator of my relationships and I can build what I call "my perfect relationship". My friend also mentioned that I am not able  to request from my partner what I am not and that I will need to work out on my fears, traumas etc. It happens that my partner will trigger all my traumas while he will create the space to heal. There will be a dance between us.       What my friends were saying at that time seemed otherworldly, but their words...

Renting my baby

           I've been going through a lot of changes and challenges lately. As I moved in autumn at my boyfriend's place, I kept for a while my place free. Almost one year. This winter I paid utilities almost 100 EUR, which I found quite a lot for a house I don't live in. I discussed with my boyfriend to take all my precious books from there and have a space dedicated in his house.              Beside the logistics of moving my library to my boyfriends house, I also needed to handle a lot of documents so that I can officially be the administrator. This is the house I renovated. I was thought it is important because I chose every piece of material with my hand. I went two or three times to the stores so that I can decide on the type of sandstone I want. I watched two times the documentaries related on interior design on Netflix just to think to the flow I want to have in the room.          ...
