Words are not enough to express my gratitude. You are golden. I love you so much, my dear.Erika || 12th January 2012
Ecks is one of the most beautiful creatures I have been blessed with in my entire lifetime. There are very special people in my life who I try very hard to keep, to nurture, to take care of and I try my best to shield them from pain, anger and suffering. She is one of those few who I dedicate everyday to always making sure that she is alright, her heart is well and that happiness consumes her.
The feelings are mutual. I thank you for teaching me and helping me, unburdening my heart even just for a moment, pointing out my mistakes so I could learn for them. The saying goes, true friends are hard to find but I found you so easily, and I am willing to keep you for as long as it takes.
Belated happy birthday, my love. You are beautiful in every way. Your beauty surpasses that which is imaginable.
——————————————————————
“Humans have a dual nature, existing in matter with the potential of the divine. We are a microcosm within the macrocosm. Love exemplifies this longing to realize the divine within us and to help others realize their potential, as well. Love helps us to find a relationship between the two worlds we live in. Employing Diotema’s process of ascent, it is a movement upward to a finer and finer sense of what love is, and as we ascend we come closer to God through love’s prompting our own abilities to create, first on the physical plane, then on correspondingly finer planes in the creation of works of art, which can range from a piece of literature, to a relationship, to ourselves. Love relationships have a special potential in developing spirituality, for in searching for and recognizing the divine within the beloved, one discovers the divine in oneself, and comes to recognize that, in all its forms, divinity is one and the same. Here, love can lift one up and love’s beauty lies in its ability to do this for human beings. It is a process, not an end in itself, in which humans can touch the divine and in this state of perception the mystical experience takes place, a union of the human spirit with God. I agree with Diotema that this experience is ultimately the most meaningful of human experiences, purest and most refined in quality, and love, in all it’s various forms, can help one get there, again and again.”
Thank you, Philosophy. :-)
