 Absence
from another, including absence from your
self can indeed
teach you about how the
heart grows fonder.
Thomas Haynes Bayly, was one of England's more versatile writers, wrote novels, plays, poems, political articles, and songs. In 1844 a poem
titled "Isle of Beauty" appeared in Bayly's two-volume Songs, Ballads,
and Other Poems. It is here that the following romantic words , "absence
makes the heart grow fonder", are found.
When you are in
alignment with yourself and in
alignment with any group dynamic any
loving thought
about a person, animal, place or any living thing, does in fact, make the heart
expand with gratitude and grow more open. Being
loving allows you to maintain
emotional competence; the more you think loving affectionate thoughts, whether that person is near or
far, the more you are giving
devoted love, to that individual, as well as
creating more loving affection towards yourself as
well. The less you will
feel alone and abandoned, the less you will feel a
need to control everyone, especially your lover, family and friends and the
less you will inflict yourself and/or others with
emotional abuse.
You
will also
free yourself from any
past or current
negative experiences and
emotionally abusive relationships, including those whom attempt to dictate
what you
should look like, feel like and be like; where you have given others control over
you, out of the fear of
lacking love.
In the article “What
is Love?” I explain more about how the tender process
of self-love actually works. I highly
recommend thinking as many kind, friendly loving thoughts as you can, about everyone
and everything, especially yourself and including your
past and or present abusers. You can also listen to beautiful
melodies that will assist you in maintaining a presence of love and a
peaceful existence.. Love and the existence of it or the
absence
of it, begins with you!
