Musing about romance
what is it?
Why do so many people associate romance
with sex?
Sensual, sexual, love and affection
These can include romance…
…but they are not substitutes for romance
When you hear an English speaker say it
the sound falls flat
Say it in French… Italian… or Spanish
and you feel something
If ones feelings are muted, how then to
feel romance?
How to feel anything?
Unless it is SCREAMING!!!
Romance is all about feeling, subtle feelings…
Surprise… excitement… mystery… mystique…
adventure… allure… charm… glamour…
Remote from everyday life…
Ahhhhhhhh… I feel something stirring
new pathways are forming in my neocortex
Cheap, entitled, lazy, perfunctory, low ethics,
stress and worry about money are incompatible with
R>O>M>A>N>C>E>
Effort must be invested, creativity and
Lifeforce infused
The desire to create an experience for
another person
Transport them to a far off reality
Where the cares and thoughts of everyday
life are left far behind
where magic and mystery are the currency
Is it possible to live this way everyday?
Is it possible to infuse ones own time
and activities with the essence of romance?
This would shift ones priorities
and have one valuing EXPERIENCES
Why not romance oneself?
Choose the romantic option
Linger over coffee
drive the long, winding way home
waste time on nonproductive things
wander the streets without a plan
burn incense, light candles, play chants
Give 50% or 100% or larger tips
SMILE
Take moments to look deeply
into the eyes of a stranger
connecting with their soul
See who they really are
allow them to see YOU
Give feelings away
like they were wrapped
in a sumptuous box tied with a ribbon
like they are the currency of life
the most valuable, rare and precious
gifts that they are
So many people are addicted to drama
substances, lack and limitation
when feelings are FREE
FREE! no amount of money can buy
what can be obtained for free
The more you give…
…the more you receive
How cool is that?
