We sure do love Pamela! This is our weekly column from the wonderful Pamela Pitts, owner of LBAE.
Hi L’BAE Nation you beautiful blessed people of God! There has been so much love in the air in the month of February between my 16th year wedding anniversary and Valentine’s Day that I am not ready to let go of the topic of love! Yes I know that love is continuous and that it doesn’t matter the time, day, or month of the year and that is exactly why I’m going to write about it today! Love is an emotion or feeling that some people would say that they have never felt, or are still yearning to have! This is a sad but true statement, as many of you reading this post may be able to relate! How does love feel? How does one acquire love? It depends, are you desiring love from the opposite sex such as a companion to spend the rest of your life with? Or do you desire the love from a family member such as your mother, father, sister, or brother? Maybe your desire is for your best friend to love you in the same capacity that you love them. Either way love (to me) is:
“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.” 1 Corinthians 13:4-8New International Version (NIV)
This is how I think of Love when I say that I feel this way towards others. To answer the above questions as to how to acquire love from those you desire, I would say to just be yourself, let your light shine through and others will not be able to resist the natural attraction that will occur just from being honest. This post may seem a little depressing but it is important for us as humans to know that we not only need to receive love but that we also need to show/give it!
Attraction …
Is defined as to be lured, drawn, pulled or excited by something. In this case, another human being. Are you alluring to others? This could mean in any form or facets as we are all created with a multiplicity of unique qualities and attributions. Okay maybe you are wondering whether or not you are attracting to others? This is something that you would truly have to search within in order to answer. No worries for those that may need a little surface support in other words the exterior portion of who you are can be glam up with a little Love Makeover!
The Love Make Over
The love makeover is a little check list that I created in order to make sure that I am attracting positive people/things to my life. This check list can be used for many occasions and is always available when needed. Here are a few tips to create your own Love makeover check list:
- A Positive Self-Regard not boastful but feeling good about one’s self.
- A Smile that Gleams
- A Polished Hygiene; Clean Hair, Fresh Breathe, Superb Body Odor
- Fashion Forward– Hair, makeup (visit www. lbaeinspire.net), wardrobe/ shoes fit for any occasion
- A Sharp Mental Capacity; in other words able to hold an intellectual conversation on any level.
- A Positive Attitude– No one wants to hang out with Negative Nancy!
- A Positive Word Vocabulary; Say nice things to people, give a compliment
These are just a few topics that I have on my Love Makeover list as these are the ones that I think are important for building a rapport with people from all walks of life. As an individual you must create your own Love make over list that fits who you are and your desires for those whom you are trying to attract, in order to establish and build upon a relationship that will blossom into love.
Remember love is patient, and love is kind…. Don’t rush it! It will come! Have a beautiful L’BAE Day! I am!
