“I loved you, and I probably still do, And for a while, the feeling may remain … ” excerpt from Pushkin poem on the Zonr post.

BEING LOVING CAN BE TAUGHT –

“We may have
thought we were
incapable of loving
or being loved or ever
having friends. We dis-
cover that these beliefs
were unfounded. We learn,
from the example of our
sponsor, how to be a
more caring friend.”
(It Works, How &
Why p. 41)

GROWING LOVING CONNECTIONS THAT HEAL THE HEART –

“As we worked
these steps, we
learned how much
healing and help there
is in loving connections
with Power greater than
ourselves and with those
who share our lives. We
now want to continue
strengthening these
connections … .”
(Overeaters Anon.,
p. 85)

“Happiness comes
more from loving than
being loved; and often
when our affection seems
wounded it is only our van-
ity bleeding. To love, and
to be hurt often, and to
love again – this is the
brave and hap-
py life.”

– J. E. Buckrose (1868-1931) English author

In what way have you been loving and loved by others, lately?

I Loved You. :

by Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin

I loved you, and I probably still do,

And for a while the feeling may remain…

But let my love no longer trouble you,

I do not wish to cause you any pain.

I loved you; and the hopelessness I knew,

The jealousy, the shyness – though in vain –

Made up a love so tender and so true

As may God grant you to be loved again.

“The poem ‘I Love You’ by Alexander Pushkin was originally written in the Russian language. Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin was a Great Russian poet born in Moscow. He was incredibly intelligent and started writing poems at childhood days. Pushkin used his poems to express his frank opinion about the Russian politics of his period and he had to face opposition and enmity from many political leaders. At the age of 27 Pushkin married Natalya Nikolayevna Goncharova who was only 16 in the year 1826 and they had two kids. Pushkin got into great debt due to his wife’s luxurious life and Pushkin was shot to death by his brother-in-law whom he suspected of having an affair with his wife, when he confronted him about it.”

” He thinks of her happiness and therefore willing to surrender his love and happiness for the sake of her happiness and joy. His prayer is that God grants another man to love her who can love her with such a deep and sincere love just as he had given her. The narrator knows well that no other man in this world can give her such “a love as deep as this, as true, as tender.” Therefore it is certain that she is always in the sanctum sanctorum of his heart forever and ever!!”  (http://www.shareyouressays.com/essays/summary-of-i-love-you-by-alexander-pushkin/97969)
