~~ Love is painful ~~3
Love gives you the first experience of being in tune with something that is not your ego. Love gives you the first lesson that you can fall into harmony with someone who has never been part of your ego. If you can be in harmony with a woman, if you can be in harmony with a friend, with a man, if you can be in harmony with your child or with your mother, why can’t you be in harmony with all human beings? And if to be in harmony with a single person gives such joy, what will be the outcome if you are in harmony with all human beings? And if you can be in harmony with all human beings, why can’t you be in harmony with animals and birds and trees? Then one step leads to another.
Love is a ladder. It starts with one person, it ends with the totality. Love is the beginning, God is the end. To be afraid of love, to be afraid of the growing pains of love, is to remain enclosed in a dark cell.
Modern man is living in a dark cell’ it is narcissistic. Narcissism is the greatest obsession of the modern mind.
And then there are problems, problems which are meaningless. There are problems which are creative because they lead you to higher awareness. There are problems which lead you nowhere’ they simply keep you tethered, they simply keep you in your old mess.
Love creates problems. You can avoid those problems by avoiding love. But those are very essential problems! They have to be faced, encountered’ they have to be lived and gone through and gone beyond. And to go beyond, the way is through. Love is the only real thing worth doing. All else is secondary. If it helps love, it is good. All else is just a means, love is the end. So whatsoever the pain, go into love.
If you don’t go into love, as many people have decided, then you are stuck with yourself. Then your life is not a pilgrimage, then your life is not a river going to the ocean’ your life is a stagnant pool, dirty, and soon there will be nothing but dirt and mud. To keep clean, one needs to keep flowing. A river remains clean because it goes on flowing. Flow is the process of remaining continuously virgin.

I think I am a very blessed fella... I have in my midst, the elusive unicorn.
I meet a lady in a park, she called me over because I had my guitar. I remember after chatting awhile, this huge lecture to me and the other guys present, she isn’t dating, she is a career woman, she doesn’t have time for anyone right now in her life, and she doesn’t have time for no FN romance.
I think she started it because I said she was cooler than the girls online, maybe I should ask for your number ... and to be clear, she isn’t my normal type, and really young, and she was dressed so frumpy and baggy with hair hidden and a ball cap, I wasn’t even serious at all.. like... thought she was cute but didn’t think She would dig old beard guy and thought she is young, not really why I was digging her... she sings and plays guitar and stuff.. cool... the number thing was a joke for a laugh not serious, jist wasn’t making moves... I expected a rejection and was prepared to laugh because I didn’t give two shits about dating her either way.
Well.. as some may have read, she called our time non dates... we would arrange a date to meet, but these were not romantic, was supposed to be music related only but we kept talking each other ears off, and she said when we met she is one of the guys, really? Really really? She let out some jokes that were so raunchy... she got points just for being crazy funny and dark.. whoa she is a riot. So, I just talked to her like one of the guys, I wasn’t making moves at all. Not one freaking move, lots of life talk, each other, um.. just on the same page with so much and laughing, singing, dancing, guitar, sounds funny.., but on our fifth non date... she flipped the script.
It was like a scene in a movie, she changed her tone, her demeanor, and she starts with, you haven’t done one thing wrong. I’m thinking, of course not, what did you think I was going to do? She meant no advances, no hands, no innuendo, no flirting like she said not interested so.. that would of been creepy ...well.. she said my soul was beautiful, then said I wasn’t beautiful however, nor cute, nor pretty... she kind of paused and I was thinking, thanks a lot, should I shave? Then she says your FN handsome, reaches for my beard and at this point I’m thinking whoa whoa Nellie, so I pulled away, and she pulled her hand away, said sorry, can I touch your face? ( sorry proper quotes and breaks are a pain on touch screen ). And I said yeah, she caressed my face, beard, ran her fingers through my hair, and I was thinking, we’re not in Kansas anymore. She kissed me.. and I mean kissed me... like she went from my innocent friend to what just happened?
Well.. after many ahem, dates after that, we had some drama.., she can’t keep time from my view, habitually late, a couple no call no shows... but she always called back and made it up to me, She did one blunder that I was angry about, like had a reason to be pissed, but before I could tell her that was it, this girl,said I was her man and her my lady one day,then back peddled... strike two.. dam it.. there were more strikes but I’m not trying to own the girl,and trying to be understanding,,. But that was two major strikes, and she left ... and after her I’m a lady, and I’m your friend comment in mixed company, and it’s ok to date, I want you to be happy stuff.., and note I was really digging her on many levels by now, she has drama, strikes, grrr, we are done, she isn’t coming back... fine .. I’m a bachelor .. grumble grumble.. good bye Mercedes.. that sucked. Roll with it big guy!

My ideal woman is so difficult to find.
My ideal woman is so difficult to find. I want a girl that is a bit psychopathic, enjoys violence, is a bit of a masochist, loves anime, and is fairly fit, all of which describe me...so hard to find!?

Connection hopes.
There are tons of single people on this earth. Some highly desirable, some not so much. My dad always said every pot has it lid.
Yet, I see on dating sites, people desperately seek a connection with anyone and everyone. People lay out profiles. Yet it doesn't matter because the desperate contact them anyway. It is like refusing to bury your dead pet, hoping it will spring back to life. Then those people get bent because the object of their desire doesnt respond.
The extremes go to stalkers and murderers or kidnappers. Or groupies who follow stars and personages across the country. If they JUST see me, I will be swept away in their limo.
Nature puts the drive into creatures to chase the best chance for viable offspring. Animals fight for the female, females cajole and practice subterfuge to get the males.
Humans have brains tho to realize realities. The health nut is NOT ever going to want to marry the obese couch potato. The intellect will not settle to spend life with someone who thinks reading is a joke. The rich marry rich, the lawyer marries the lawyer.
So to those frustrated people on dating sites, read profiles. Acknowledge conflicts. And save yourself grief pining for what will never be. Wishing wont make it so.
As the saying goes, water seeks its own level. Be realistic in your quests. Love is the goal, not perfection.

Confucius said...
Confucius said, it's not that he blogs too much. It's that the others blog too little.
As a matter of perspective. If one person blogs daily and others feel like they only want to blog weekly or monthly, is it the fault of the person who blogs daily that his/her blogs often appear on the main page?
If the website had more member participation there would be more blogs and no reason to complain about the bloggers who 'keep the place alive' and frequently appear on the main page.
Blog more people... Be an active part of the blogging community in a good way and not a bad way.
Maybe the solution is to blog about giving money to scammers or why it's so hard to find someone using online dating.
Those topics rarely get talked about!
