Q&A: True Love
Q: Is true love once in a life time ?? Or can it happen a couple of times ??
I think the answer to your question is different for everyone in that we all have a unique outlook, belief system, and make up. There are those of us who believe in our one true love, and so we eventually manifest that relationship if we are actually willing to do the work to get there. Many people don’t make it to that point for whatever reason (fear, insecurity, unconsciousness, laziness etc.) and settle for reasons that have nothing to do with love. Those who settle tend to dismiss the idea of true love as a fairy tale because they gave up and were unable to download the fantasy into reality for themselves.
But I believe we all have the possibility to meet our one true love, and sometimes, yes, I think some people have the capacity to meet more than one. In some cases, I believe the first love helps to set the stage for a lasting relationship the second time around. For example, think about someone who lost their true love to death, and so the next time around, this person might be more present and forthcoming with their next lover, knowing they do not have forever. There were lessons their first true love provided to give way to the second true love experience. In all likelihood, someone who had truly found true love knows it exists and would be open to the experience a second time (assuming they hadn’t closed their heart & had worked through their grief in a healthy way).
We meet many people along our life’s path, and there is always potential for more to occur between two people. The real question is, do both parties say yes at the same time? Do both parties choose the same road? Do both parties show up? I believe we have free will, but I also believe we are meant to meet certain people throughout our lifetime to evolve. We ultimately decide what happens after the initial meeting. Some people may shut down in fear at the opportunity for intimacy and true love, and others may charge forward in desperation and blow it. There are so many possibilities here, but there is at least one person out there for each us if that is what we desire. (At least, that is what I have found to be true in my personal experience and through my observations of others).
Being a student of A Course In Miracles, the ultimate reality is that there’s only one of us here in truth. That means the real love affair is learning to love ourselves first, and then we can truly know what it is to love someone else. From that place, we vibrate at such a high frequency we cannot help but attract and become attractive to so many others. Our possibilities and options become unlimited. We begin to meet people we actually resonate with, and at that point, who is to say how many people you’ll have the kind of soul recognition that leads to true love? I really think we get to choose our experience in that respect. The existence of that one particular soul we especially resonate with feels true to me personally. You have the power to choose for yourself.
Those are my thoughts given where I am at in my own evolution at this time, but I will keep you posted as I happily continue with the real life research on your behalf 😉 I would love to know what my followers think on the subject?!
