Daily Nugget - Are you feelin' it?

If you have breathed oxygen on this planet for any length of time, there will be one revelation that will, eventually, become crystal clear to you:

Your feelings may overflow much less than they do, at other moments in your relationship.

This is normal.

But at about the same time that the 'gushiness' wears off, the commitment should kick in.

This is when we, as my mentor taught me, must act our way into the feeling, instead of waiting to feel our way into an action. Because, honestly, we may never get to the place of 'feeling' like loving that person.

In a nutshell, we must love the unlovable and know that it only takes one moment to shift us, from needing to show compassion to needing to receive it.

Continue to keep it 100 party people.

Good evening Dr.W.D. family,

Hence, I shall now begin.
