There are two kinds of love: divine and human. Divine love is unconditional. Divine love sees through judgments and other barriers. It holds no expectations. It gives and asks nothing in return. Divine love is what our souls are made of.

Human love is love through mortal eyes, but not necessarily from the soul. Human love often has conditions. Human love has expectations, and judgments. Human love gives, and is hurt when it doesn’t receive in return. Human love is a romanticized experience of love that is influenced by our fears, desires, needs and insecurities.

Human love often says, “I’ll love you if…”

Divine love says, “I love you, even when…”

We’re led to believe that romanticized human love comes with such rewards. But in my experience, Divine love is where it’s at. Loving from this deeper place in your soul, where you have an unlimited source of love at your disposal, is literally out of this world.

I’ve met people on their spiritual journey who leak love onto everyone they meet. There is such a thing as being too open, placing a doormat on your heart for anyone to wipe their heels on. Human love can lead us with illusions, and that could sometimes put us into situations that are less than loving. Are you bearing your love for all to see so you’ll be loved and accepted, or desired? If so, this human motive skews the soulful benefits of a non-attached love that’s truly divine.

Divine love isn’t about thrusting your open heart into the air for all to see. It’s a subtle, harnessed energy that resides deep within. It shines naturally from your heart, like the sun, creating a brightness around you. You may find people drawn to the light your love is emanating along your path. Be the light. It’s all you need to do. You don’t need to prove your love when it’s divine. You just need to feel it deep within you, and walk with it wherever you go.

We’ve seen the headlines “Black Men Don’t Get Married!”, “Why Black Men Choose White Women”, “Most Black Women Will Never Marry” and countless other titles  of articles that perpetuate the belief that black men and women cannot, do not, will not choose each other as mates.  There’s the constant media promotion that we cannot co-exist in a successful, loving relationship.  Just look at many of the couples on prime time  television shows. How many of them are comprised of a black man and a black woman? Better yet, a happily, married black man and woman?And, unfortunately, as a result, we’ve accepted these myths as truth. We focus on all the failed relationships of our family members, friends, co-workers, neighbors, whoever we can find, to justify that we cannot create successful relationships of our own. We read the articles. We bash the opposite sex. We blame our former lovers, spouses, FWB’s and one nighters. We form pity parties and become victims of all that was ever done to us in the name of love or sex or love and sex Thereby, eventually, creating a self-fulfilling prophecy within our own lives to further justify the media’s propaganda. Until finally, our lives resemble those that the zealous journalist simply eager for a byline has so eloquently described in his article. We’re loverless. We’re loveless. And we’re alone.

However, at no time does it occur to us to simply take some time to take personal inventory into our thoughts and our habits that have created the current loveless state of affairs which we’ve deemed our love lives. Truth be told, I know more successfully AND happily married couples than I do divorced. It’s none of my business whether or not either of the spouses have had extra marital affairs. The point is to acknowledge that it can be accomplished. That a fulfulling marriage between a black man and a black woman can be attained is my primary focus  because there are so many people who doubt it’s possible. Or at the very least they are implying that it is unattainable.  And it’s not because their information is anymore factual than mine. I mean ultimately, at the end of the day, who is the expert on black marriages?  Definitely, not anyone writing those headline seeking articles. Furthermore, in order to have hardcore irrefutable statistics, ALL black people would have to participate in the census and we know, historically, this does not happen. Therefore, why are we buying into what the media is feeding us?

I’m no conspiracy theorist by any means. However, I can apply critical analysis to any situation. And in this particular case, some things just aren’t adding up. Why such the overt attack on black relationships? I don’t profess to have the answer to that question but I know what we need to do as a community. Simply put- Prove them wrong. We are a loving people. We love hard.  And even though we may not always get it right, we’re willing to go back for more. Black women are lovable and there are plenty of black men who are ready to love them.

In order for our love lives to improve we must change the way we view each other. We are not enemies. This is not a competition. We are not out to get each other nor do one another harm.  We are inherently good and loving. When we choose to recognize the good in each other we will see a marked difference in our loveships. When our focus changes to the positive attributes that we have to offer we can begin to turn around the rate of success of our relationships with one another. And when this happens, others will be forced to write new headlines. And imagine what they’ll write about when we’re operating in love. Imagine.

Smooches!
