so having drinks with friends the other night...a grand discussion on the topic of love and what makes it work. it was interesting as the table was equally divided between those of us who are single and those who are married/hooked up.
ideas were tossed about related to what it means to love someone…from compromise, forgiveness, acceptance, tolerance to indifference. and what it means to feel love, understand love and when needed, let go of love.
well, as many people know i am by far no expert in this matter so articulating much at all makes me stumble and stutter like charlie brown and the lil red haired girl. i think hard and find words such as respect, adoration, creation, connection and good conversation at the end of the day over a decent glass of wine......
i am such a simpleton!
and then my pal of many years summed it up beautifully:
“Love is not finding a perfect person, it is seeing an imperfect person perfectly”
