Simply Love You

Half way down page 69 in "A Book of Dibbles" is one of the best lines I have heard in awhile:

To Honor you
I will discard my experiences,
my habits,
and behavior
to 
simply love you.

Okay, now this does relate to the last posting, I see it like this simply loving someone and not applying baggage of habits and history to it are helping leaving definitions off it and just allowing you to experience your feelings for them. 

Awareness include not only seeing who You are but also the actions that "who" takes.  When you love someone you have to ask if you are treating them a certain way out of habit, because of past experiences or behavior patterns. 

Your ability to be Aware spreads to other people. The people you love will benefit from your awareness. And trust me you will benefit from theirs. 

I mean which would you rather have: someone that reacts to you based off of some long past event or someone honoring who you are now? Kinda' a no brainer. 

So being aware of your actions helps everyone. Because one of the greatest gifts in the world is to be able to simply love someone.
