The Ultimate Love Potion 
No, it's not James Bond's shaken not stirred Martini that stirs the heart.
It's someone special that helps us be what we have to be. Someone that shows us a dream for ourselves that we didn't think was possible. Someone that makes a contribution to attaining that dream, makes the heart fall in love.Helping someone with their dreams has more romance than two dozen red roses. Giving someone a book that will lead them to their goals has more heart than a box of chocolate. Paying for a seminar that will teach your loved one how to move up in life, will do more than an a weekend in Vegas.However, don't make the mistake of taking on the role of teacher. Don't preach to your loved one like a know it all "Clyde". Quietly give a book, a compliment, a word of guidance, a gold sovereign for luck. And then let them use that energy to find their way on their own, as you lead by example, going after your own dreams.And then if the chemistry is right, love will be on the horizon.

You are so wise. I wish a certain man I know would be as wise as you are. This is so true. It goes both ways. I love being there for someone I care for when he's on his way of fulfilling his dreams, but, I like the support, too. Mr-know-it-alls who are always giving out advice, but, not practicing what they preach is a total turn off for me. Thank you once again for your wise words.
Again my good fellow your words strike home like thunderball. I understand this entry and know it to be truth. Living the bondlife is not just a static ideal but a complete mindset that, as you have pointed out, affects others all around you.
Your logical words of motivation continue to inspire me each and every day. For that, I thank you.
Sail on... sail on!!!
that is very interesting. i was just rumminating about relationships and being tired of being the teacher. i like being a student. i like learning new stuff. it is an awful lot of responsibilty to be the teacher.
Life can be so difficult and yet so easy. It depends on your state of mind. Thanks for reminding me of keeping it simple.
I can say happily I follow this one pretty well. I try to nudge people along, or rather enable them to nudge themselves along if they choose.
