“True love is not a strong, fiery, impetuous passion. It is, on the contrary, an element calm and deep. It looks beyond mere externals, and is attracted by qualities alone. It is wise and discriminating, and its devotion is real and abiding.” ~ Ellen G. White; prolific author and American Christian pioneer.
Human love, in most people, is guided by chemical interactions within the body. By science, the highest dose the brain gets lasts for about 2 to 3 years–that is when the desire and passion, thought-products, are young and intense in the person. Then the intensity starts declining, and that is why the break-ups and divorces; because if there is no real connection, if there are only the chemicals working in you and fooling you into a deeper connection, then the relationship wont last long.
Connectivity is what humanity is, we are social creatures, whether romance or dear friendship we need connection; because our souls, our spiritual existence is one, and so is always expanding and embracing the same love-substance beyond what human thought knows love to be.
And it is this way, of course, because human thought, even though it is helpful in many instances, is prejudiced and bias, opinionated and judgemental. Common thought, even though there might be knowledge, knows nothing about the true essence of love, about true connection.
Beyond our humanity, we can sense something that connects us, and sometimes we don’t even know why we feel attracted to somebody. But when thought, throughout months or years of a relationship, begins to judge and create confusion, we lose that sensitivity or sixth sense, and so thought infiltrates the relationship with accusations and all sorts of ignorance.
We must let time and respect, sincerity and harmony take over our relationship before thoughts of intense desire do; for only in this manner we can be sure it is real love and not a mirage which will soon disappear in front of us.
