Love is Worth the Risk

Let yourself fall in love, naturally and slowly.

Picture Source

Risking your heart can be frightening….but, it can also be exhilarating.

Will that person return your feelings? Will you learn that they are not the person you thought they were? Trying to move toward love can feel terrifying, but it can also open your heart and mind to a whole new world.

If you never jumped into the ocean and felt the cool crisp waves upon your skin, you would be missing out on an extraordinary experience. While at moments maybe the salty ocean sprang got in your eyes and made them sting, when you learned enough about the ocean you could lie back and let the waves carry you. You could bask in the warmth of the sun and be lulled to a restful relaxation in its refreshing waves.

Just like jumping into these powerful mysterious waves, you can see love like this. Though you might not know what is below the surface of the waves, if you take the time to explore what’s below you will be less afraid of it. You will learn to trust your instincts more because you will know how to keep yourself safe in any new endeavor not just a relationship. It will teach you that as long as you take your time and really observe your surroundings you can learn how to keep yourself safe and enjoy all the beauty that life has to offer.

Open your heart to love and all that it has to offer. If you discover that the person is not right for you, it gives you the opportunity to learn more about yourself and learn more about what you want in life.

Do not miss out on the infinite beauty of love. You deserve the life and love of your dreams and your heart and spirit will naturally guide you in the right direction, the best direction for you if you allow it to.

    It is. Even though sometimes it’s hard to see this in the moment.

    thank you. there is an adage that goes ” some people claim that being with someone may bring some misery but being alone is far more miserable. with every relationship mistake one makes, its a learning experience. a lesson that will ensure the next one is good.
