One Love! What about the one heart? One Heart!
What about – ? Let’s get together and feel all right
…Thanks Bob Marley!
I think the term “making love” is more than what we think it is. What do you usually think of when you think of this term? I’ll tell you what I think! SEX.
And then the debate starts (one that I’ve had many times before), what do you think the difference is between just having sex and making love? Hmm. Don’t know? Can’t really put the words to it?
Well, I’ll tell you what I think. I don’t think making love is just a form of sex, although it can be. But to really understand what it means to make love, I think you have to understand the bigger picture of it. Have you ever heard of the term- “make love, not war”? Well as far as I am concerned this term has absolutely nothing to do with sex. It has to do with the controversy of war- at least two sides being divided and against each other- versus two sides being at peace- or undivided and whole (which is love). Making war means there are at least clearly two separate parts of something (maybe more), at battle, not seeing eye to eye, and making love means there is a sense of unity between at least two parts. There may be separate components making up something that is whole, but the point is that those components form one altogether (so if they form “one” in the big picture there’s no use in viewing the components as separate- they are fluid). Let me give you an example: think about how many tiny grains of sand are on a beach (kind of mind boggling for me because I don’t do math much!). Sure there are way to many to count or even imagine, but at the end of the day all those tiny grains make up one beach and that’s all that matters. I am convinced that making love is making wholeness. Making one out of two or three or five or so on. In this sense, making love can happen anywhere and anytime. Making love is basically those moments you feel a sense of wholeness with someone or something. That someone may be your friend, your family members, a pet, or even yourself. Sometimes it may be you viewing a beautiful scene when you feel a sense of connection with the world, and everything comes together somehow. Making love can be sex… it can be when you have amazing sex with someone and you feel like you are connected as a whole in mind, body and spirit with that person. At the same time, it may be when you lock eyes with that same partner, and you feel a deep kind of connection that gaps any physical separation.
Just some food for thought.
