The love you initiate...

[sage]

Here's where the title comes from:

Your optimism can create the stage for a significant turning point in a relationship now, as you face issues that were hidden from your view. Your key planet Mercury is asking you to balance your thoughts with those around you. Trust your good feelings. Act on them. The love you initiate can take your mind off the more serious stuff and help you rebuild your enthusiasm for life.

The last few days have been an eye opener for me (couldn't someone just slip me a note or send me an email with these messages instead of bonking me over the head with them?)...informing me that I am NOT the only one in my M who yearns to heal, who is afraid of loss, who wonders if the other truly loves or chooses "me", who needs to hear "you are doing a good job", who regrets the mistakes and wonders how to forgive "myself", who pushes away in order to reach out sometimes, who feels spent, who seeks pain relief, who is confused, who wants but fears the wanting.

I think the "complexity" of the "grayness" is actually quite simple. We both want to be loved and to love and we worry about our ability to do that.

Got some catching up to do with work but will be back..
