The Secret of love… The secret of love is a sense of humor. Share together a sense of the absurd. At the same time, be careful how you tease each other. Never tease if the teasing is unappreciated. Let your humor be kindly, never sarcastic. The secret of love is never losing sight of the underlying reality of your love. Reflect: Isn’t your long-term relationship more important than any passing disagreement? Flow with the longer rhythms of your love. The secret of love is not voicing negative emotions, but waiting for calmness to return to its post. One who is upset perceives few things with clarity, though emotions will parade themselves in the garb of a revelation. Only by so doing can you perceive things as the really are. The secret of love is showing the appreciation you feel. Never take your beloved’s awareness of this appreciation for granted. No matter how often you say with sincere feeling. “I love you,” though the sentiment is as old as the human race, your words will sound forever fresh and new. The secret of love is holding hands together silently. Gradually, you will learn to communicate together telepathically. To be continued in the next issue . . .
