Loving More

A huge piece of what polyamory is about for me is honing my ability to love without attachment. To stop resisting what is and to rest in the acceptance of things as they are. My ego gets attached. I want what I want. I make up elaborate strategies to have my needs met and then when another makes choices that differ from my own, I want to rebel. I'm good at creating stories of rejection that stir up shame. My disappointment urges me to blame others and judge myself. It's a place of dishonoring my inherent rightness and the rightness of others. Polyamory is about letting go of all this nonsense, accepting the truth of reality in this moment and loving more.
