The ABC's of Celebrating Love! by Larry James
This
was sent as an e-card to us by our in-laws for our anniversary last
year. I really loved this, and when I found out who the author was I
just had to include it here.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
A -Absolutely amaze your partner with
adoration. Let them know in very special ways that you care. Exercise
extravagant respect and devotion toward your lover. Accept them for who
they are. Demonstrate your warm attachment and affection to them. Avoid
taking your partner for granted.
B - Believe in your instincts. Be spontaneous.
Don't plan. . . just do something that you've wanted to do with your
partner for a long time. Let your love occur naturally. Stop and pick a
roadside flower and present it to your partner.
C - Cuddle. Lie close and be cozy. Do
sthingys! Just hold each other. There is a very special healing power
in a close, warm embrace. C is also for "considerate."
D - Discover new ways of expressing your love
for each other. Hire a skywriter. Put a message up on a billboard. Buy
a radio commercial to say I love you. Record a special message on a
cassette.
E -Entice your lover to try a new way of
making love. Always making love the same way can bring on boredom.
Focus on pleasure. Enjoy each other to the fullest. Read, Red Hot LoveNotes for Lovers.
F - Flirt for fun and frivolity. Be creative
in your flirting. Pretend you are together for the first time or that
you are trying to pick up your lover.
G - Gaze into each other's eyes with a steady
intention to say, "I love you" without words. Smile. Notice the eye
color. Say something nice about them. Be generous with your love.
H - Have a private party for just the two of you. Candles, music, the works. Talk. Listen. Express your love for one another.
I - Indulge each other's desires. Write your secret desires on pieces of paper and trade. You may be surprised.
J - Joke and have fun together. Lighten up. Be joyous. Release your sense of humor. Have fun with love.
K - Kissy. . . kissy. . . kissy! Quick pecks
on the cheek don't work. Give your partner an unexpected, looooooong,
juicy kiss. Be keen on kissing!
L - Love with all your heart and soul. Always
remember to speak, "I love you" at least once each day. Express love in
new and exciting ways. Remember to love yourself and do nice things for
you too.
M- Massage away the day's tension and stress.
Begin with the feet and work up. Surprise your lover with your magic
fingers or tantalizing tongue. Buy some special massage oil; something
that smells good.
N - Nurture your need for nibbling. Nibble
each other's earlobes or other parts of the body that feels good.
Practice a soft, light, romantic nibble with your lover. Nibbling feels
good.
O - Offer breakfast in bed or some other surprise your lover might like. Be creative. Plan. Make it very special.
P - Pretend you are long-lost, passionate
lovers. Use your imagination. Think! What could you do that you haven't
done for a long time? Do that.
Q - Quote your lover a love poem or a special passage from a book or greeting card that expresses exactly how you feel.
R - Remember the little things. Respect your
partner by paying attention. Be aware when your partner's likes and
dislikes. Notice what makes them happy and deliver more of that.
S - Slow dance by candlelight or in the
backyard in the moonlight. Get back to romance. Be sensitive to the
romantic needs of your lover. Romantically impaired? Read, 1001 Ways to Be Romantic.
T - Try a little tenderness. Be gentle. Practice the "soft touch." Go slow. Be intentional.
U - Uncover your deepest feelings. Speak them
or write them to your lover. Communicate them unwaveringly. Let your
emotions express themselves with sensitivity, understanding and love.
V - Vow your eternal love for each other.
Renew your vows. Make some new ones. Look up the word "vow" in the
dictionary. Live by your solemn promises.
W - Watch a sunrise or sunset together. Bring
a picnic basket with snacks and your favorite beverage. Let the warmth
you feel for your partner be felt.
X - X-plore your romantic dreams. Day dream
about this one. Think. X-cellerate. Don't wait. Do something X-citing
together; something you said you would do in the past, but you both
have been putting off or making X-cuses about.
Y - Yearn for each other's touch. Don't hold
back. A hug-a-day pays dividends beyond your wildest imaginings. AND. .
. it feels good to be touched by the one you love.
Z - Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz in each other's arms.
Zero in on being close. Touching feels good. Enhance your enjoyment by
listening to your partner's breathing cycle and to their heartbeat.
Inhale and exhale together. Become as one.
