Do you Love me?

It is a simple question and depending in the tone of voice and gestures, it can be a sweet question or a tricky question.

I used to ask my husband this question many times a day...without even thinking that I was doing it. One day I felt tired to doing it and then I asked to myself what I really want from that question, what part of me is looking for attention? 

I did an inner exploration of my emotions. I found that I loved to hear my husband saying how much he loves me but I knew there was something more deeper in my heart. Our childhood experiences are always running in the back of our heads even without our acknowledge.

One day I came to the realization that my dad, who was a very busy business man, didn't take time to express his love to me. The emptiness of my heart disappeared as soon as I accepted and acknowledge the circumstances from my childhood. As a child I didn't have knowledge to handle my emotions but today I know that those feelings or needs are not longer required in my life. 

I have a great husband who show me how much he loves me without questions. Today I learned to look inside my emotions and thoughts instead of pushing out fears or insecurities to my marriage. I believe that self awareness is an excellent tool to build a better relationship.

We may remember always that "Life is too short to be wasted it in non-sense past experiences or people who are disconnected from their own heart."

Love yourself while loving others....

Namaste,
