The key to meaningful relationships is to get in touch with your core, where you will find the strength to rein in your reactions regardless of what the other says or does. Only then can you afford to get truly close which is the path to a lifetime of romance and passion. The book "The Little Prince" is one of the world's great bestsellers. At first glance it's a children's story, but it's really for adults, addressed to a part of us that has been buried since childhood--that spiritual center that is our essence, from which we must learn to relate to others if we are ever to enjoy the fulfillment that romantic relationships in particular and relationships in general can bring us. Hidden in the language of a child's make-believe are the keys to discovering the heart-to-heart connection for which we all long. These keys will unlock the door to meaning and happiness in your romantic life, and in all your relationships.

The idea that you run out of steam romantically and passionately the longer you're in a relationship is based on a false notion of what love is. The real excitement isn't the surface thrill of the first phase of a relationship, but is found in depths few ever plumb. The most rapturous feelings aren't experienced in the courtship phase. They are possible only after the letdown, beyond the disappointment from which most of us never recover. When two people achieve fulfillment, it has little to do with how long they dated, communication skills, age differences, or techniques in the bedroom. It has much more to do with how well they know themselves. It has to do with whether they've come to terms with their alligator--the part of them that reacts to their partner--and found a deeper self from which to live and love. This invites you to tame your alligator, so you can relate from your deepest essence and connect with your soul.

Sosa, Miguel Angel

It is the soul that fascinates me! For once I realize I am a soul, I can become willing to drop the superego, the ego, the false personality, the machine, or what Eckhart Tolle so deftly describes as the “pain body.” I can begin to awaken to another consciousness. To awaken can be the beginning of dying away those ancient forms. To die away those ancient forms involves awareness. To die away those ancient forms involves a loving discipline as an inner witness to my self-talk. To die away those ancient forms involves effort. To die away those ancient forms means not identifying with them as the true self, but to stay present to the quietness of the soul. To die away those ancient forms means to let intuition lead and the ego/machine to follow, or disappear. When I get a glimpse of the peace, the light and the joy of the true self, then I know through verification that there is no separation between the soul and the God that created it and everyone and everything. Marcia Wolff, M. A., trained as a psychotherapist at Southwestern College in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Here she fell in love with Carl Jung, dreams, symbolism, mythology and archetypes. She also earned a degree in English Literature at the University of Texas at San Antonio and discovered poetry. To keep her soul alive, Marcia paints, creates collages, writes and attends to her dreams. Marcia makes her home in Mexico and the United States.
