		<description>&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-6171&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;@cjwright&lt;/a&gt;, One of the most profound expressions of love I have ever felt was when my girlfriend took two months out of our relationship to be away from me. It let me love her in the way that can feel too painful to speak about.

Yes, I missed her and yearned for her. But at the same time I knew that this space that she asked for from me was sacred, because she is sacred and I love her--and all that means to me is that I want to give her whatever she needs. And when she gives me the chance to honor her &quot;no,&quot; I can truly love. In fact, during those months apart, I felt so in love with her that even as it felt sad to miss her, the sadness felt good. It felt sacred, it felt intimate, it felt right, it felt true. And it actually made it all easier for me.

If someone really loves you, they will honor your &quot;no&quot; like water flowing in a river--naturally, without a second thought. Nobody is perfect, there are rocks in all our streams... but the best ones will have few rocks and the water will just flow.</description>

		<description>&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-6182&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;@Dave Doolin&lt;/a&gt;, oh yeah, love can do it all. If you knew &lt;a href=&quot;http://positivejuice.com/about-me/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;who I was as a child and growing up&lt;/a&gt;, I would be the last person to love. But here I am, a true lovangelist!</description>

		<description>&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-6191&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;@Tanya Geisler&lt;/a&gt;, that&#039;s because love is so abundant in its true form. It is infinite, it expands as you develop it and knead it, like dough... and it gently but firmly pushes you along! Yippeeeee!</description>

		<description>Your comments on sacrifice echo something I wrote about how &lt;a href=&quot;http://positivejuice.com/2010/01/15/what-is-real-unconditional-love/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;unconditional love is free of sacrifice&lt;/a&gt;. You are absolutely right, and sacrifice models of thinking are responsible for an awful lot of disappointment and agony.

This is right on, Kelly. Keep it up!</description>
