“Making Love“...what is that?

Of course we all know the usual meaning of the words "Making Love". The marital bed or the coming together of two humans being to enjoy sensations of the flesh, either way in and of itself is a beautiful thing. Of course we all seem to think sex or "Making Love" is important, however, the aforementioned is only a miniscule part of the whole…a micro of the macro.

Every minute of every wakened hour is a time for “Making Love”.

Offering a smile from the heart to a stranger or blessing the one that took your parking place is “Making Love”.

How many times while driving has someone pulled out in front of you only to be cursed or saluted? How many times have you done the same thing because you were not conscious or alert because your mind was somewhere else and not focused on the moment…driving. “Making Love”, once again in this situation, would be to leave judgment out, to understand that the act was not against you, that it was a reflection of you giving yourself the opportunity to forgive.

Where there is no judgment there is no need for forgiveness. That is “Making Love”

Calling up an old friend you have not talked to in a long while, walking through the fields, the woods, sitting quietly on a beech and being totally focused on “Now”. Being one with the presence of “Now”. Watching the bees and butterflies carry out their task in the spring of cross pollinating the flowers. Watching the leaves dance to the tune of a soft breeze blowing through the trees. Being the observer in the present moment and not the thinker. Simply observing nature and “Not Doing” anything else is “Making Love”.

Helping someone in need, lending an ear to someone's story, transforming a frown to a smile, sharing good news and positive information with others or helping dry a tear with an understanding hug and a whispered, “I Love You”.

Realizing that you are no lesser a human being than anyone else, accepting the way you are without judgment to self is “Making Love”.

You can “Make Love” all day long (even in public) with anyone you choose and I promise you, it will not be considered obscene. ~ Jerry Stolaski
