If Love Took Over

One age old question that philosphers, psychologists and ordinary people around the world have tried to answer is – “What is Love.”  I came accross this short video on facebook that one of my friends,  Madeline Giddons, posted and just wanted to share it with you.

Too often when thinking of what we desire in our ideal partner we focus on what they will do for us and how they will make us feel.  Often we want them to fill something in us that is lacking.  They’ll make us happy, feel good about ourselves or makes us feel valued and special.  While it’s important to feel that way in a relationship the best way to get that is to be that person ourselves – be happy, feel good about ourselves and feel special within ourselves.  What happens is that we then attract that kind of person into our lives. 

As Mahatma Ghandi once said:    ”You must be the change you want to see in the world”

Imagine what would happen if each of us reading this post focused on radiating the energy of love?  Imagine how we would be and imagine how the world around us would respond?   Imagine what our lives would be like – if love took over.

What do you think?
