I share an experience I had this morning as part of me exploring love and fear. Enjoy!
Tears today, from both of us. I pondered are these tears of love or fear?
It started when Scott played John Legend's, “All of Me.” Words and music below for you.
We hugged each other as we listened and softly sang the words to each other, emphasizing certain words that resonate with our relationship.
Smart mouth
Crazy, out of my mind
magical mystery ride
curves, edges,
worst distraction
perfect imperfections
The Universe answered with a synchronicity. As we left the house for work, Scott changed the radio station. "All of Me" was just starting to play.
Again my tears. I realized this is all about our love, our relationship, our perfect imperfection. This song was written by a 30 something inspired by his fiancé. I marvel that it resonates so deeply with a couple of 50 somethings who have been married for over 30 years.
I will close with John Legend’s lyrics. He has looked into my soul, perhaps our collective souls and sings of the ups and downs of love . . .
What would I do without your smart mouth?
Drawing me in, and you kicking me out
You've got my head spinning, no kidding, I can't pin you down
What's going on in that beautiful mind
I'm on your magical mystery ride
And I'm so dizzy, don't know what hit me, but I'll be alright
My head's under water
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, ohoh
How many times do I have to tell you
Even when you're crying you're beautiful too
The world is beating you down, I'm around through every mood
You're my downfall, you're my muse
My worst distraction, my rhythm and blues
I can't stop singing, it's ringing, in my head for you
My head's under water
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, ohoh
Give me all of you
Cards on the table, we're both showing hearts
Risking it all, though it's hard
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you
I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, ohoh
