IS LOVE ENOUGH??? Posing the question.. If it is not, what is?

article image placeholderUploaded by @NatashaNoel
There are all those sayings like that that are just so true. If you're hurting, you tend to end up hurting others. There's so much that can go into that. So my point being is that there's going to be a lot of times that you're given that 100% in 10% and they're not able to give that in true love

Posing the question.. If it is not, what is? #ordinarilyextraordinary #natashanoel #isloveenough

Hi. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I was thinking about the love for yourself and how important that is. So the question, is love enough? I think that it's a constant relationship with yourself and with others. I think that the love that you give yourself, in a way, can be reflected of the love that you're able to give back and that you have to pour into your cup to be able to pour into others

Sometimes we have to learn that the hard way because we don't get taught how to love in relationships and as individuals, when we're in our homes a good percentage of the time, I'm grateful that I was I'm grateful that we had some conversations about relationships and about self love. So I feel like I was ahead of the game a lot more than a lot of people, but I still came out with cuts and bruises. Right

Of course, no one needs to be a doormat. And if you're being a doormat in a relationship, that's not the relationship for you, but a servant. I truly believe that every relationship you're in in general, not just your spouse or partner, but if you have a servant attitude of pure love and giving that it can take you further than anything. It's hard to maintain, especially when you feel like you're not getting the same in return

What you said self love and I'm 52 and just really learning how to love myself is something that has been the hardest thing in my life because I was abused as a little girl and told I was worthless. And I was saying to the other lady that commented here the same thing is that tape that plays over in your head and telling you who you are from the words that were spoken aloud to you stays with you forever. It's like you cannot just rip that tape up completely

Hi, this is J-L-I don't believe that love is what we need. I believe what we need is acceptance. When I say love is not what we need, I'm talking about the Lifetime Movie Network whimsical all until death do us part. My sun, my moon, my stars, my sugar wooku. I'm talking about that love. Acceptance is deeper. Acceptance remains about the individual

And sometimes they aren't given their part, but what are they going through and how long are they continuing the behavior? So that's just my thoughts on it. I hope you have a good day. Bye

I want to not be at that desperate place that you just want to be loved the way you love. And I feel like that's the one thing I've wanted my whole life is just to have that crazy love. And I do have it now, but there's so much that's hard in the relationship that I'm in. It's not a perfect one

You start to talk to somebody and you think that this one's a good one. This one seems kind and considerate, like his mama raised him right and then you get a d*** pick. Or I was going to go out with this one guy, he was a trucker and he was coming my way and he thought this is the perfect time for a date

It's so amazing and hard. It's hard because I know I told you what I told you and when you can literally feel something from someone and you know, he knows when I'm upset, I don't have to tell if I'm trying to hide something, if I'm just trying to hide it and not say something to save argument, to make it better. He still sees through me

Love is continually moving and ebbing and flowing. Sometimes it's less, sometimes it's more, sometimes it's super intense and we can go through all these different ways of describing love. But it's the same way for self love and it's the same way for love that deems intimacy between individuals, right? Something that totally drives me or as Peter Griffith would say, grinds my gears. That's for all the family guy watchers

I I believe I do a lot of spirituality work, and I believe that empaths are here to be the change that we want to see in the world. In other words, I don't know if you've noticed a shift with the world yet, but there is a shift away from organized religion, I guess, to looking inward and an enlightenment happening. There's a lot more out there as far as information or people speaking out about spirituality

I feel that if you fall in love with somebody, it doesn't mean like you fall out of love with them, it's just that you to them. So you automatically going to be madly in love with them. So there's no other way to put it, I don't feel. But that was a good question. I liked it. Have a nice day. Bye

Ah, thank you so much for your reply. I appreciate that and your comments and your story. Thank you so much. I'm listening to it in the middle of the night, so I need to relisten to it in the morning. But I wanted to say thank you so much and you have a good day today. It's almost time to get up, I guess, for some people. I don't know, I just woke up and started doing this

Whereas as I matured and got older and I'm 43, I realized that there was a head conscious component of love too. Right? And so for me, those two working together was a huge part of how I look at love now. So the love that I have does not imbibe tolerance of behaviors that some folks may think can be repeated over and over again. And I should continue to quote, love them

I guess today it's not so good but you keep on going. At least I have it right? When you have it you need to be appreciated of it, of it because when you don't your world falls apart anyway. But since that major f*** up, excuse my language, then I fell in love with another one that has been divorcing for years and oh that's just a whole nother story there but at least we're trying to do it right. Trying

And we don't truly get to enjoy love because we're so busy trying to look out and show up in case something else shows up and do this. It's like a game, right? So I think a sub, another part to this conversation could definitely be can you enjoy being in love? Can you just flow and go with it?

True. Enough?

Because as an artist living off of disability after a long, good tiring career with a body that's breaking and a heart that's too big and gushes too much love, I don't know what else I have to offer other than my words and my thoughts. And all of those are the way that I show my love. And I'm being challenged at the moment, really challenged in whether the love that I'm being given is even real
