Quote of the Week:
The hardest of all is learning to be a well of affection, and not a fountain; to show them we love them not when we feel like it, but when they do. - Nan Fairbrother
You aren't wealthy until you have something money can't buy. - Garth Brooks
I was about half in love with her by the time we sat down. That's the thing about girls. Every time they do something pretty... you fall half in love with them, and then you never know where the hell you are. - J.D. Salinger
Feature Article of the Week:
Starving for Love
I used to listen to a local evening radio show while I worked at my computer. It was a great show with a warm and funny hostess. Her show focused on love and romance. People would call in to request love songs because they were very happy in their present relationships. They would call in to say that their hearts were breaking and to request songs to lift their spirits. They would call in to request songs that they hoped would make someone come back to them. They dedicated songs to moms, dads, children, soldiers, best friends, and anyone else they might love. People would call after burying a loved one to request a song that brings back happy memories of when the person was still alive. It was a pretty sappy show and I loved it. However, one night, the radio hostess really ticked me off.
A woman called in to say that she loved the show and that she had been listening faithfully for years. However, she confessed that sometimes she cannot bear to listen and has to turn her radio off. The caller went on to say that it had been so long since a man had loved her like a love song, that she sometimes found it hard to believe that anyone would ever love her so deeply and completely. She said that she listened to the show and the men call in saying how very much they were in love with their wives or their sweethearts. She loved the show, but sometimes found it hard to believe that men like that really existed. That was when the normally compassionate wonderfully caring hostess blew it in my opinion.
She gave the woman a hard time about how it was her negative attitude towards love and romance that was keeping her from getting to experience it. She was trying to make the point that you have to be a complete and whole person capable of inner happiness before you go into a relationship and not to expect another person to make you into a complete and happy person. Fair enough and there is a lot of truth and importance to the message she was trying to give the caller. A bad attitude can definitely chase love away. However, she used an analogy that I found very disturbing. I believe that many people are in the position of the listener who called in that night. I also believe they are getting this same treatment and advice by lots of well-meaning people who mean to empower them but end up just belittling the broken-hearted people.
The analogy she used went something like this… “I would love to travel and see all of the amazing wonders of the world, but my life and finances are such that I don’t get to do that. When someone tells me of a wonderful trip they’ve just taken, I don’t get jealous and bitter. I don’t tell them that I can’t bear to listen to their stories of traveling abroad. Instead, I rejoice in their good fortune and ask lots of questions because I want them to tell me everything about it. I am happy for them, not bitter and depressed.” She wanted the caller to take the same approach to hearing of other people having beautiful happy relationships. I can see what she was trying to do and I think she really meant well.
Here is why I take issue with her analogy. Love is not the same as traveling the globe. Studies have shown that love is a basic core human need just like food, water, and shelter. Traveling is not. So let’s look at this from the idea that the caller had called in about food instead of love. If someone was starving and without food most of the time, and they called in to say that they loved your show about gourmet cooking but sometimes the hunger got so intense that they couldn’t bear to listen to other callers stories of scrumptious mouth-watering meals. If they went on to say that they had been hungry and without food for so long that they were beginning to sometimes fear that they would never eat again, would you lecture them and tell them that it was their bad attitude that kept them hungry? No, of course not. Sometimes people live in situations where food is hard to come by regardless of their attitude. Sometimes people live in situations where love is hard to come by regardless of their attitudes too. It would not be an empowering gesture to tell the children starving in Ethiopia that they simply had bad attitudes and that if they changed their attitude, then they would see that food was in front of them all along. Why do we say that about love? Think of love along the same lines as that saying, “Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime.” Shouldn’t we be teaching people how to love?
I have seen with my own eyes wonderful beautiful smart women who had incredibly self-confidence and vibrantly magnetic personalities that could not find a good man if their life depended on it. Believing in love does not mean that you will get love. Someone still has to show up and fall in love with you. Finding the right one is much harder than simply having a good attitude. Do not let anyone tell you that because you have not found a quality match that it is your fault just because sometimes you lose hope. The fact is that if you are starving for love, then you are starving. Nobody can feel loved that isn’t. Yes, you can be grateful for the love of friends and family and thereby have the basic core human need met. However, we all know there is a big difference between living off bread and water versus enjoying a bountiful harvest of delicious foods. It is no different with love. You have a right to feel an ache in your heart - you are hungry.
