Being a romantic is about two things.
- Being in touch with your feelings.
- Being honest with yourself.
If you’re doing these two things, you can’t help but be a romantic.
How do you get in touch with your feelings? Just feel them. Don’t act on them; just feel them. Feeling feelings is just like any other thing. The more you practice it, the easier and more effortless it becomes. Two years ago, I didn’t even know feelings existed. Yet they silently controlled me like the strings of a mad puppeteer. The more I’ve learned to feel feelings, the more they pass through me. But also, the more discernible I’ve become. There is really only one string that matters — the one that leads Home.
