Asa Rodriguez (asarodriguez) Love is never having to pretend to fit into the expectations of somebody else. This is love brought into a mature relationship. Two equal partners in value coming together, to move on together, to build together, and to support each other.

For this, a spiritual bond must be sought, such that is going beyond even what we think of each other. Something without words. Something not of the mind. The union is sacred when it goes beyond what we expect from each other.

There is no goal here, but to be together must be the constant spiritual union. To be together then is the journey, in doubt, in anxiety, in the hurt, and in all difficult times. Refrain from judging one another so the spiritual union can happen without the meddling of the mind.

Kelly Olson (kellyolsonbooks) | 3 comments Pubescent years are a time of longing for deep connection, but with mixed messages. One hand is up as if to say, "Stop!" while the other hand is waving you in for a hug. Tweens/teens are encouraged to lean in and engage with their parents during this time of awkwardness and unpredictable times.

message 4: by Deborah (new)

Deborah Vance Hi Asa and Kelly, It's interesting that you're both tackling issues both of which I deal with in a novel. The title character is challenged by issues of puberty, but also by communication with her parents and she seeks a spiritual bond. https://www.amazon.com/Sylvie-Denied-...
