Love the One You’re With and With Total Devotion
We have all heard the saying,”the grass is always greener on the other side” but one thing many seem to forget or not understand is that that saying is a warning. What this saying is intended to say to you is that be happy with what you already have, and not wish you had something else. If you do not follow this, you will find yourself on the other side of the fence staring back at where you were wishing you were back over there. There are numerous sayings and quotes related to this same thing. How about “You don’t know what you got till it’s gone”. Those who do not learn from their own or others mistakes are doomed to repeat them. Love is like a flower, it requires attention and devotion for it to bloom. If we neglect that flower, it will die.
Everyone has some sort of passion in their lives. Something they not only take pride in, but also devote themselves to. Take a moment and think about what it is that you feel you have to devote time to. Whether it is working in your garden, or watching sports (or some reality TV show) everyone has something, that they refuse to give up for anything. Take the football fan (or maybe the American Idol show or something), who will forgo anything else to be able to watch their passion. Now imagine where your relationship would be if it received that same type of commitment you devote to something else. Your relationship is something that you are hoping and wanting to be around as long as you are, yet how can anyone truly believe it will be there if it is just something that sits on a shelf collecting dust. You have to take that relationship off the shelf every day and admire it. Wipe off the dust, and polish it and enjoy its beauty.
Anyone who is happily married and has been for a long time will tell you that they are together because of the work they put into the relationship. Those people made a commitment to each other, and put forth the effort with determination and passion as if it was their hobby. If everyone in a relationship were to do the same thing, and give their relationship the love and devotion that it deserves, we would not be looking over the fence wishing we had something different. The greatest advice I can give anyone is to treat their relationship as if it was their greatest passion, isn’t it really your greatest passion? Like a carpenter making a table, spends so much time just making sure each piece of wood is perfect and is properly prepared, so should we be that carpenter making our relationship a work of art. Love is a great and wonderful thing. Love can be eternal and strong for as long as we devote to it. If we find our love is waning, then we will also find that we have been neglecting that love. A love that is pampered and devoted to will not die and fade away, it will only grow and bloom.
