Dreams Of Romance Story

When you want to write your own romance story, you have to remember that romance is never mapped out, and you have to let

Life take its course. It’s never easy to be alone, but you have to know that the right man or woman will come when the time is right. If you think too hard, and have a long, winding romance story in your mind of what things will be like, you are setting yourself up for disappointment. If you dwell too much on what you think is ideal, you may end up feeling cheated, and no one will ever measure up to your standards.

Your romance story will be unique, just like you are. You won’t know how it will turn out until it is over. So many people fall into dating with dreams of the ultimate romance. In reality, relationships take work, and are hard. Even the best romance story ends in compatible companionship, and a trusting love that is different from the initial rush. So many people think the initial ‘wild about you’, ‘can’t keep our hands off each other’ stage will last forever. It may seem this way when you read a romance story, but that simply isn’t reality.

If you are still single, but find your head full of romance stories, you should go ahead and write them out. This way, you get them out of your head, and you can see each moment in reality, not with the script in your mind. There are many people who love to write a good romance story, and this is because romance is something everyone craves, but even the most perfect relationships end up somewhat lacking in this department. It’s normal,

And there is nothing wrong with you if this happens.

If you crave your own romance story, take your time and date before you commit to one person. You may know instantly that you

Have met someone who could be the one for you, but there is never any reason to rush. A good romance story is one that is

Full of hope and understanding, and the main characters must trust and understand each other. Rushing down the aisle might

Only lead to disaster. You can’t push things, and if you are meant to be with someone, and your romance story is a keeper,

You have all the time in the world. Enjoy getting to know each other so you aren’t regretting your decision a few years down

The Road.

The Dance of Romance

February is the month of love. It even includes an entire day that is set aside simply for the purpose of making grand gestures of romance and love. Valentine’s Day has been around for centuries.

One story of the origin of Valentine’s Day dates back to the 3rd century AD. Father Valentine, a Roman priest, defied what he believed was an unjust law of his day that forbade marriage and secretly married young lovers. For this he was sentenced to death, was martyred two centuries later and became one of the most popular saints of France and Italy.

LOVE
This thing called love receives more and more notice in most every area of life. Spiritual traditions have long claimed love to be at the core of healing and happiness. Philosophers have written of three types of love called eros, agape and philia. Medical research has produced scientific findings that love improves our health – it changes us on a cellular level, enhances our immune and cardiovascular systems, and increases our endorphins. A recent Oprah show highlighted a group of middle aged women who attributed their vitality and success to doing what they love. And the Law of Attraction that is rapidly gaining attention identifies love as a high energy emotion that transforms not only the “lover” but those near and far. As well it has the greatest attraction power of any energy.

ROMANCE
Since this is February I want to talk about the love celebrated in February, love that is distinguished by the “Big R word” - Romance. As I write this I am reminded that I don’t hear or read very much anymore about romance, except for a week or two around Valentine’s Day. I think something is amiss. Who doesn’t, if you are truly honest with yourself, desire more romance in your life?

Think of it. Romance is romance because of an array of delicious qualities such as genuine curiosity, adoring attention, expression of deep affection and passionate emotional involvement. Pretty good so far, don’t you think? There’s more. Romance is filled with charm and excitement. There is play, intense pleasure, profound interest and adoration. In romance one’s best self naturally shines forth, as well as the ability to see the magnificence in another. As I expect you know, there is a great deal of energy in romance – energy of vitality, passion and aliveness. Now I ask you again, “Who wouldn’t want more of that?” If you’re counting, count me in.

HOW TO HAVE MORE
The next question becomes “how?” Before answering this question, I want to remind you that any “great” relationship requires several things, one of which is romance. Now let’s get back to the question at hand, “What does it take to have more romance in my relationships?” First, let’s go back to the wisdom of Saint Valentine. He followed his heart not the dictates of something he didn’t believe in. So follow the desires of your heart, rather than the commands of “shoulds.” Second, choose to “become the Cupid in your own life.” Cupid, the Roman winged god of love, who shot his arrows of desire into unsuspecting persons has long been a symbol for Valentine’s Day. As Cupid, you get to shoot your arrows wherever you want. What relationship in your life would you like infused with more romance?

There is the obvious area of intimate relationships, whether with a long term partner or spouse, someone you are dating, or maybe even someone you are interested in but haven’t yet let them know. Is there still romance in your marriage or long term relationship? If yes, be grateful for it every day and keep doing what you’re doing that keeps romance alive. If not, let this month of love be the month to reclaim and re-ignite the playful, passionate aliveness of romance with some gesture that lets your partner know that you “see” and adore them. You can even do this with someone you are dating or begin with someone you are interested in. And there is always the long-stemmed red rose, ever the symbol of love and romance. Whatever you do, do it authentically - put your playful, thoughtful, passionate heart in it!

What about your business or career? Might it be time to start romancing your work or your business? Spend some time here with your full attention, appreciation and curiosity. What is one passionate action that would create a spark in this area of your life? Do that by Valentine’s Day. What is the particular charm or uniqueness of your work or business, even if dormant right now? Highlight that in your planning and next steps.

There are many relationships in your life that could be transformed by a little romance besides those I already mentioned – even those with money and time for starters. They all have one common denominator - You. Maybe now is the time to start some “serious” romancing of yourself? How much adoring attention, genuine curiosity and profound interest do you have for you? When was the last time you took time to “see” who you really are and what’s most important to you, or consciously gifted yourself with pleasure? Please take out your calendar and highlight an evening or an afternoon during the week of Valentine’s Day that you will treat yourself to a romantic date with “you” to do, be or have whatever strikes your romantic fantasy. And then, make it a habit.

THE THREE M’S OF ROMANCE
Romance requires that you take time, slow down and pay attention. And if romance strikes your fancy, remember that what you give your attention to grows stronger in your life.

I want to leave you with the three “M’s” of Romance – magic, mystery & miracles. These have to be present for real romance to occur. While science continually strives to “know” and find answers to or reasons for everything in life, I invite you to also allow for magic, mystery & miracles which provide much of the spice in life and the romance in love. Make sure to invite these into the Dance of Romance!

Enjoy this month, and beyond, of romance. And remember, You are a natural! You are brilliant! You are magnificent! Simply by being you. Let your light shine!

Romance in Florence Italy

When you imagine Italy, it is really Florence Italy that you are seeing. That is because Florence is at the heart of Italy. It is a place filled with passions and indulgences that awaken all the senses. Visual masterpieces are there to behold and one almost begins to salivate at the thought of the Florentine cuisine. To make the most of your visit to Florence, you can learn a little here about where to stay, what to do, and what you can expect from the locals.

A Warm Welcome

The first thing you expect from your visit to Florence is a warm and hearty welcome. The local people are lovers of people and are not afraid to show it. It is not uncommon to be greeted at your villa by a someone’s “Nona” (grandmother) with a big hug and a hot plate of food – no matter what the time is when you arrive.

Next your accommodation at any price level will be clean and pristine. The linens and furnishing may not be the most luxurious in the lower costing rentals, but they will be freshly washed and painstakingly starched. It’s just the Italian way to keep their homes extremely clean and they offer no less to their guests.

Some Choices on Where to Stay

There are some popular favourites within the city limits of Florence. The Savoy hotel, Florence, Italy is one of those. Here you will find five star accommodations within walking distance of two of Florence’s most popular attractions – the Uffizi Gallery and the Ponte Vecchio.

Another Florence hotel popular among tourists is the Westin Excelsior. It is also located close to the most visited and historic attractions and offers rooms and services American’s are most comfortable with. In addition to these highest rated hotels, visitors will be comfortable at such centrally located lodgings as the Hotel Rivoli or Palazzo Galletti.

For extended stays in Florence you may want to look into apartment or villa rentals. Apartments can be found within the city limits, while most villas are about 20-30 km outside the city. For travel to wine country and then back to the city, Florence car rental offices can accommodate your needs.

Apartments in Florence Italy are generally small, but efficient. You will find a small kitchen is the norm, but they provide enough space to cook simple meals. For a short term rental, they are more than adequate and provide a good home base for exploring the entire Tuscany region.

Downtown Florence Italy is one of the most historically significant cities in Italy. Here tourists come to take in the Uffizi Gallery, the Ponte Vecchio Bridge crossing the River Arno, and the St. Croce Chuch. In addition, there is the Duomo, the city’s Exhibition and Congress Centre. No visit to Florence Italy would be complete without feeding the pigeons at Boboli gardens or walking down the garden’s avenue lined with cypress trees dating back to the 1600s.

Florence is a city that needs more than a weekend to see it all. Plan on visiting during the most pleasant season between April and June and make sure you give yourself at least a week to enjoy the city and surrounding countryside.

Winter Romance on a Budget

Oh the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

Winter is a wonderful time for romance. With the cold weather, the perfect stillness, and the additional time for snuggling, you can’t go wrong in the romance department.

There are countless ways to show love during the winter — without running up your credit card bill. Initiate the following ideas with your sweetie, and show him that your warm heart isn’t affected by the cold weather or by your budget.

* Light some candles or start a fire in the fireplace and enjoy the day together.

* Bake cookies together.

* Read a book out loud to each other. As kids we enjoyed being read to, and the appeal is still there. Just try it and you'll see.

* Turn on the radio and slow dance to the songs you fell in love listening to. Or find new songs to rekindle your love.

* Look at old photo albums of yourselves when you were kids through your dating years. When's the last time you've had a photo taken together?

* Play a board game or do a jigsaw or crossword puzzle together. There are so many new fun games as well as the old favorites. Make it a priority to spend time together.

* Have a picnic on the living room floor. Serve some wine and cheese or order take out food. Even your ordinary sandwiches will taste delicious when served with the right atmosphere.

Romance Horoscope Basics

You've all read them in the papers, your daily horoscope, detailing whether you'll be lucky in love today or that perhaps you just might want to slow down that steamy office romance that he started a few weeks ago. Just about everyone reads their romance horoscope, whether they believe in them or not, because most of the time, a romance horoscope is just plain fun. Still, many believe and seriously consider what is contained in a romance horoscope, whether it comes from the daily newspaper or it's offered through a psychic reading.

Starting with the basics, most people in the Western astrological world use the Zodiac as their horoscope. Eastern astrological signs are different and animals are used to represent romance horoscope signs. The Zodiac as applied in Western astrology can even go so far as to determining what Zodiac signs are compatible with yours. If you're interested in a romance horoscope, it's best to become somewhat familiar with the signs and personalities associated with each Zodiac figure. For example, those born from April 21 to May 21 are generally considered to be born under the astrological sign of the bull, or Taurus. Be advised however, that these dates follow the 'Tropical Zodiac' format. A tropical date is used mostly in the United States and Europe and uses the hemisphere as a separation guideline. A sidereal zodiac uses the sun and star alignments as a guideline and is used mostly in India. This date format will give the same Taurus sign as being May 15 through June 14. But that's not all. The astronomical date for Taurus is actually May 14 through June 21. If you try to figure out those romance horoscope options, then you are serious about your readings. Regardless of the dates, each romance horoscope sign is given an element. Still using Taurus as an example, their element sign is Earth. A Ram's element is fire, a Gemini is air, and a Scorpio is water. More than one astrological romance horoscope can be the same element and that's where the love matching comes in.

Temperaments can also be determined using a romance horoscope and the various energies and element that are associated with each Zodiac sign. For example, a Leo is expected to be generous, proud and theatrical. A Libra will likely be cooperative and fair. A Sagittarius is straightforward and can be rather careless. Using such information can make a romance horoscope reading much more detailed and thorough, for those who know how to take the information and relate it to their circumstances.

Many believers of astrology and romance horoscope readings believe that certain 'signs' or 'elements' belong together, or not, and that their relationship is predetermined by their signs as well. A romance horoscope will state that an Aries matched with an Aries will experience a fervent relationship, while a Gemini matched with a Virgo will have an 'unusual' relationship. A Libra matched with a Pisces may experience a fairytale love. A zodiac love match can be made by using a romance horoscope to determine what 'sign's are most compatible with yours.
