Romance is an Energy

Whether you're in a relationship or single, romance is first and foremost an energy. It's how you express and share the love you have within yourself as part of the world around you, which then can be expressed in affectionate partnership with another.

While the sacred, intimate moments and courtship that we usually affix to the romance label are shared with your special person, romance itself is simply an expression of the energy of love.

Romance is spending time in nature, admiring the fragrance and wonder of a flower's new bloom.

Romance is an evening mindfully cooking a delicious home-cooked meal and leisurely enjoying your creation.

Romance is the sensual flow of movement of your body during a sunset walk or a starlit dance.

Romance is art and poetry and music.

Romance isn't merely the flowers or the meal or the sunset or the stars...

It's the beauty, the delight, the wonder at this co-creation with the Universe that is felt within the heartspace.

Romance is the energy you exchange with yourself, your partner, and the world as a whole.

How are you romancing yourself?
