Are You Letting Love Change You?

Are You Letting Love Change You?
Judith Sherven, PhD and Jim Sniechowski, PhD
Because there are always two distinctly different
people in any relationship and because
change is a fundamental part
of life, your relationship will never stay firmly,
predictably in place. Never. UNLESS you both die
emotionally and settle for dullsville.
When you really get this, or "grok" it as Robert
Heinlein said, then you can begin to enjoy and look
forward to the many seasons your long-term
relationships will go through.
This is very similar to the flowing changes in the
local wild flowers here. Every week or two
some of them are fading and altogether new
shapes and colors and sizes are erupting with gleeful
abandon. This riotous infusion of new life into the
already living, the dying off of that which is now
beyond its time -- brings us such delight as we take our
morning walks down our road.
We've speculated on what it would be like if they
all came into their season at the same time. It would
be difficult to appreciate them as independently
wonderful expressions of God's creativity -- they
would all be just alike. And it would be just one thing --
there would be no progression and development to the spectacle.
Sadly, so many people want their relationships set
in stone right from the beginning -- no surprises,
no growth, no unfolding. But life and love are
not like that. The blessing of real life love is that each
of us keeps growing if we stay open to the lessons
of love and then our relationships can never be
boring, never beyond improvement, never without
further depths of love to discover.
Enjoy all the seasons -- even when you are too
hot, too cold, and certainly even when your love life
isn't going according to your private plan. At all times,
know that love is taking you where it needs you to go!
