23 augustus Keeping it aliveImagine that you've decided to build a fire, perhaps while you're camping. You carefully choose the logs, the kindling, and after lighting a match to start the fire, you watch over it steadily. Then you sit back and enjoy the comforting warmth, the delightful play of flames and magical of light. You don't need to be as vigilant about keeping the fire blazing, since it has enough fuel for now. But at some point, it gets a lil colder, it grows a lil dim and you realise your fire needs your attention again. And so the routine continues to raise the flames high again.
Even if you've neglected the fire for a while, even if it appears to have died out, you see that the embers still radiate a deep, orange glow that can only be created by extreme hours of heat. The embers are deceptive, and they contain great power within their quiet light. Although by themselves they produce no flames, they can ignite a newly added piece of wood in seconds, rekindling the full force of fire, transforming the dormant coals into roaring blaze.
Fire is like the passion between two lovers. When you first met someone you fall in love, carefully court and seduce him or her, adding the right amount of intimacy, the perfect commitment until the passion flares up your body and your heart. For a while this blaze burns brightly on it's own and you grow accustomed to it.
But one day when you realise there is less light, less heat, and that in fact it has been that way for some time. You don't feel the same intense physical attaction, the same desire to unite, the same stimulation you once felt. The passion is gone, you may conclude. I guess we've fallen out of love. And the relationship is over.
How many ppl asked themselves, at this critical point in a love affair, if the fire of passion has died down simply because no one is tending it, because no one has added the fuel necessary to keep it burning? How many ppl walked away from smoking embers of their marriage, certain that the fire has died out, without noticing the coals of love still contain enough hear to reignite into flames, if they are only given chance?
Respect the fire of passion, the fire of love. Understand if you want to keep a relationship going, you have to honor it, care for it, tend to it. Feed the fire of your love with kindness, commmunication, appreciation and gratitude, and it will always blaze strong and brightly for you.
