The Spark
Marriage, how did I get into this thing?
It must have been the passion, some might feel.
How sweet and innocent she appeared. I wanted to conquer and satisfy myself. How
handsome and protective he seemed. I wanted to have him at my side forever and give
myself readily. Is this love?
Passion is the spark that lights up the fire of love between people. It creates for many a
start to great attachment, a sense of true love. Others suffer in time with a sense of loss
as the fire of passion cools. Then I’ll be putting up with him (her).
The lesson for me is to enjoy passion as it arises but give daily attention to nurturing a
love for each other.
“Together we flow
through a sea of bliss and love
No you, no me – we.”
