How Do Experiencingyou Know When You Are Love?

Living4Loving
We would all like to be loved more and feel full of love – isn’t that so. But I have a question for you. “How do you know for sure WHEN you are feeling love?” in other words
“How do you "get" love, and how do you really KNOW you are having it?”
Sounds like a funny question doesn’t it. Do you feel love when you’re biting into your favorite chocolate or candy? Of course not! Well maybe sometimes? If you’re sharing it with that someone special! So how do you know that you have been really loved by somebody (lipstick on your collar proves nothing?).
Wouldn’t it be lovely if you had a little light on the end of your nose that lit up every time you felt love so that you and others would know it? No, it’s never quite that simple. Are you getting love when you receive a phone call from your favorite friend or a distant loved one? What about when you get up out of bed, and it’s a holiday, the sun is shining and the sky is blue. You’re full of energy, you feel great – is that love?
Do you know love when a friend gives you an unexpected gift? The question is: are good feelings equivalent to love? What do you think? Does it follow then that if someone can make you feel pleased, that you’re being loved? If that’s so then there are some people that you and I could never love, because they live deep in the valley of sadness and misery despite their comfortable circumstances. Does that also mean that it is easier to love a person who is in a happy mood than someone who is angry? Are you feeling loved when you get what you’ve wanted for a long time? It may be a new gadget, a new relationship, a promotion or perhaps some extra income. Do you really feel un-loved until you get it?
If you’re expecting a definitive answer to these ideas from me, you’ll be disappointed. How we feel love is a very complex and personal matter. Built upon our associations of getting love through a variety of activities in our past. We may know love in a special touch, a special gift or even from an act of service. What makes you know loved? Really loved?
Take some time during the next day to notice when you feel love, and what happened to make it so. I guarantee that if you do that for the next night, you will see loving in a new light. Every time you notice that you are feeling love, thank God for it, it is a gift from God to be able to "get" and to share real love.
We all are seeking love, and yet most of us do not even know when we are experiencing it or not. How can we expect to find love if we cannot even recognize it? In the First Book of Corinthians Chapter 14 St. Paul challenges us to earnestly seek spiritual powers, but above all to pursue love as our greatest quest.
Until next time this is Pierre Basson saying “Find love in your life, and never ever, ever let go of it.”
