What makes love last?

Many physiologic and psychological things play into it.

But, the basics still remain...

caring, kindness, touch, a desire to do better, a desire to create an environment that says: "you are important to me and I feel blessed and do not take you 

for granted."  

It's not all a bed of roses, so they say.  In actuality, roses have thorns, just like our lives have challenges.  With that takes a lot of talking, patients, concern, "sorry's" and the willingness to ride the troubles through together.

Being able to find the good things in another and letting the small things go, "as part of two seperate personalities ; while being as one in the same".   Allowing the other thier space, for with that makes the heart grow fonder.  It also makes the attraction stronger.

Sometimes it is necessary to let the other know what is uncomfortable in the relationship, so they can both work on improving...

for thierself and their mate.

All in all, being able to last the years... is communication.  Also talking is another key, but the power of a loving touch 

pulls it all togehter.

Never stop touching.

"Use it or lose it!"

What is it?

For each of us, it may seem like many things.  But can we all agree that it is in caring, that happiness takes shape and blossoms?

For instance, like helping others in so many ways... It may be something simple like offering to lift something.   Or, for them to achieve their goals ... it may be as earnest as attempting 3 meals a day.  We can offer hope and caring with just

a smile and a hello..  

When we help others, we have reached the peak, or helped ourselves closer to our full potential.  Our innate chemicals survive for helping others while at the same time allow us 

better health overall.

Some call it the power of the mind.  Others call it divine intervention.  However, without us helping each other, the world would become full of hate, 

plain and simple.

No endorphins, no serotonin, just overactive cortisol, and epinephrine.  Our adrenal glands would be put into overdrive with more hatred, prejudice, and greed.  What a sad existence.

We hold happiness in our hands, mind, body & spirit.

Feel free to share it and reap the goodness it offers all of us!
