Do you find love or does love find you?

In this business of finding love, efforts certainly do not translate into results. There is absolutely no correlation, whatsoever - which leads me to think perhaps one can't find love but love would have to find its way into one's life. Love - by which I mean romantic love - is like family and friends - they just somehow happen; we certainly did not seek out family nor friends. These gifts are somehow blessed upon us naturally and organically.

Of course there is the camp which purports finding love is akin to finding a job. But getting a job translates into having to work. The last time I checked, there is still a negative connotation attached to "work".

In the business of finding love, I am just going to sit back and let love find its way to me. My part in this is to do everything that I enjoy doing and cracking open my heart. When love arrives, my heart will be open to let it in. Deal, Universe?

Oh, Lenny...

As I was listening to the Best of Lenny Kravitz last Sunday, this song spoke to me & finally inspired me to clean my apartment.

Heaven Help

There comes a time
To be free of the heart
I wanna be ready
Ready to start
On a love journey
Got places to go
Made up my mind
And I have got to let you know

Heaven help the heart
That lets me inside
Heaven help the one
Who comes in my life
Heaven help the fool
That walks through my door
cause I decided right now
Im ready for love

A funny feelings coming
Over me
Now Im inspired and open to being
In a love place
But its out of my hands
Im telling you baby that you got to understand

Heaven help the heart
That lets me inside
Heaven help the one
Who comes in my life
Heaven help the fool
That walks though my door
cause I decided right now
Im ready for love
Ready for love

I can't see whats out there for me
And I know love offers no guarantee
Ill take a chance and im
Telling you something babe
I got to let you know

Heaven help the heart
That lets me inside
Heaven help the one
Who comes in my life
Heaven help the fool
That walks through my door
cause I decided right now
Im ready for love

Ready for love
Take a chance
Take the chance on love
The heart, the fool
