Love can be many things

Will love lift you up or drag you down?

 

emotions4_FullWhen I looked up the meaning of love there were many words describing several emotions and various significance and importance of those feelings and I began to have opinions and then I heard the mistress of Bernie Madoff on television on the morning show and my whole demeanor altered as I heard her say he took everything from me and I knew the only thing I had to sell so I could survive financially was my story and I felt this cringe of pity and shame this woman must be experiencing I had no judgment and I was surprised as I wondered didn’t she know better and how could she have been with him for so long and not seen what he really was?  Who was this man who has left so many people destitute with no remorse or emotion to the damage he’s done to so many when I realized there’s always the good and bad of every passion or feeling we have and Bernie is the unsurpassed example of the most evil person we’ll ever have to judge at least for now as there must be others we don’t know yet and because of him there are so  many who will probably never be the same and have lost everything and will never recover and I wonder will they find the others who were part of his scheme will they be brought to justice  or will we never know who they are, making this even sadder because they should be identified and punished  for the horror and sadness they caused for so many for so long and most would agree we deserve to know who they are and see them punished for their crimes as well it doesn’t stop with Bernie.

And now the term love seems impossible for me to ponder this morning those astonishing words which describe the tender feelings love can be are gone for the moment I have to think about what I’m feeling thus, I can’t write about love when all I feel disgust for this man he’s filled me with depressing thoughts therefore I’ll be back when I can continue to think positive about what love can do for us and ultimately what the worst kind of love is and how it can harm hearts and lives and change your feelings when you experience a Bernie Madoff  because he’s affected mine this morning and I never even met him thank goodness how about you and will you purchase her book I will hoping I’ll learn something important about emotions.

I’ll be back….

    Love is complicated and splendid. I don’t know of that story/situation, but I can understand how it can affect one’s outlook. I recently believed that I wouldn’t/didn’t want to be in a relationship, but it’s funny how love can make you change your perspective. What you learn from the pain of love can be used to provoke change in future love relationships as well as teach you a lot about yourself. I have come to realize that not only do I deserve to be loved unconditionally, but it is a joy and a release to give love.

    My comment is most likely going to sound odd but what’s new? you would think with my history of abuse throughout my child hood and into my early 20’s that I too would say love is complicated but splendid.

    But, for me love is not complicated at all. Love is love. It is an emotion. Now a relationship may be complicated but not love.

    Love for me is not something I see as splendid either. Perhaps I did in my younger years. everything seems so romantic and explosive when we are young. I consider anyone younger than 38, my oldest daughter to still be in that young phase.

    For me love is that feeling of being at home. Love is spending the entire day in your sloppy p.j.’s, your hair up, and no make-up on and your hubby still tells you how beautiful you are and truly means it. Because he is looking through the eyes of true love.

    Bernie Madof was a crook plain and simple. What he did was terrible and at least this one crook is going to pay. Do I have pity for his wife? This I can’t answer completely because I do not know her personally.

    I would have questions like was she caring of others who had less than she? Did she ever help someone simply to be helping them without anyone knowing or without it being a big public charity event?

    Also I think of the enormous wealth that she was privileged to have access to for so many years. The countless shopping sprees, homes everywhere, fancy parties, trips all over the world and Lord only knows what else.

    If I were her I would be grateful that I too weren’t on my way to prison and also grateful for the tons of money that she will inevitably make when her book comes out about her life as bernie Madof’s wife.

    I know I probably sound cold and callous here but I truly don’t intend too. Yes he betrayed her trust and now she has to sale everything and get on with life.

    Well that happens to millions of women everyday who don’t
    have minks, diamonds, several homes, expensive antiques and such to sale.

    When all is said and done her worst case scenario is probably going to be that she only has one home with 5 or 6 thousand square feet and only one Mercedes to drive. As we, like most Americans, are finding it very difficult to even pay our monthly bills right now, and we live a very very modest life style I somehow find it difficult to work up too much sympathy for her.

    You watch she will be remarried within a year maybe 2 at the most and the man will also be very wealthy.

    Don’t let a crook and a jerk like this man turn you against love. To do that is giving him the power to control your emotions. don’t you think he’s already controlled way too many people’s lives and that it’s time to remove any and all power and ability he had to manipulate people?

    I do and I’m glad he’s going to jail!! I also know this for a fact!! if you are truly in love and the love is mutual and real then you would know if you’re partner were a crook.

    So cheer up Dorothy and don’t ever ever give up!!
    big hugs,
    Jackie

    P.s. I’m really tired so I apologize for any misspells or grammar errors!!

    Thanks for the great thoughts as we all try to muddle through love and all its glory Jackie and Petula really give me more to think about and now that I’m over the mistress and that creep Bernie Madoff maybe I can pick up where I left off. I’ll digest your thoughts and be back.

    Hugs..guys and I’m so glad your all part of my world when I sometimes babble and you still humor me with kind and intuitive words to think about.
