Rekindling the bonds of love


With the busy schedules of our daily lives it’s easy to lose sight that the greatest gift our partner gives us is his or her company. One day you wake up and realize that the person sleeping in you in your bed is a stranger. It doesn’t have to be this way though. If you take time and celebrate the company of your partner you can rekindle the bonds of love and the romance in your life.

The sound of the waves on the beach. The caress of the gentle breeze. A beautiful sunset. The simple things can be all that’s necessary to light the fires of love. There is no need for an expensive gift or grand gesture to day “I love you.” But it is necessary to detach from the routine of daily living and take some time to nurture the union with the body and soul.

You may start by letting your partner know that you appreciate their company. The most common mistake of emotionally estranged couples is taking for granted their relationship. Remember your partner does not really owe you anything. She or he sharing a life with you is a gift, a privilege. Be sincerely grateful that you partner chose to share a life with you for a minute or a decade. And remember that actions speak louder than words. Don’t just say it, act like you love your partner.

Nurture an empathic bond with your partner. Many times we become so self absorbed that we demand understanding from our partner but do not seek to understand our partner. This is one of the most destructive patterns for any couple. Try to understand. And when you don’t understand… ask. You’ll be surprised how tolerant your partner will become if there is a sincere attempt at understanding. And greater mutual understanding nurtures a greater love.
