Try On The "State" of Summer Love. . .  Just For Fun!

by author Rev. Laurie Sue Brockway
summer, love, relationships, romanceremember back in the summer of 1984, when I was single and searching, I led my girlfriends in a declaration that July and August would be a time exclusively reserved for romantic recreation. That summer, we all penciled in only one appointment for two hot and breezy months: Summer Love.

And what a summer that was!

Some twenty years later, I am thinkin' . . . that's what is missing from the lives of soulful, adult women. We take love so seriously. We work so hard to get it... and get it right. What would happen if we could get into that old summer love consciousness and toss our cares, old broken hearts and most of our relationship expectations to the wind? We'd be liberated and free to love without attachment or expectation. We'd be Summer Love Goddesses.

The truth is you can choose to be a Summer Love Goddess in the heat of the summer... or the chill of the winter. It is a state of mind that can be created any time of year!

The idea is Summer Love, in its truest essence, is a very Buddhist thing - no attachments, and full acceptance that it will end ... sometime. Along the way we make it point to stay present in the face of fun, excitement and new experiences. We don't worry about the consequences and we have no expectations of the outcome. Traditionally, with Summer Love we are not imagining who we'll invite to the wedding by the third date - unlike, admit it, the non-summer soul mate season, when a third date inspires thoughts of "this could be it!"
Calling All Summer Love Goddesses!      

For all you Summer Love Goddesses at heart, I suggest a break from seriousness, and a fling with lighthearted love. When you take the charge off finding the perfect love, and are willing to indulge in a little carefree romance, you will be surprised how much easier it may be to see love and relationships in a new light that supports your long term goals.

Just consider it Advanced Summer Love, and consider yourself duly entitled to as much romance and fun as you can muster. "The whole point is to be caught up in the romance and the heat of the moment, and to be spontaneous," recalls my friend Charlotte, for whom Summer Love was a prerequisite to college. "There are a lot of spur of the moment adventures. You don't mind if he shows up unexpectedly at midnight - you love it. At any other time, if a guy shows up without calling, you break up with him for being invasive! In fact, you don't mind anything he does. Time is short and nit-picking and trying to transform him into the perfect man is just not an issue."

Imagine what could happen to our love lives if we approached relationships from this Summer Love perspective: We'd be in a state of surrender, which would make it a little easier for True Love to find us. In winter, our potential soul mates have to battle the winter bulge of the armor covering our hearts, and slay the dragon of our mindsets that says perfect love must look, behave and feel a certain way. In the state of Summer Love, we are lighter and airier!


Set the mood, be inspired!

Here are some guidelines for Advanced Summer Love:

1. Pencil in ROMANCE in big red letters across your calendar for July and August. This will be your first symbolic gesture to the universe that "yes, I am getting that loving feeling and I am ready for a Summer Love."

2. Get into "summer love consciousness" and include it as part of your spiritual practice. Meditate, pray, visualize, and daydream about sensual summer days with an oh-so-special Summer Love who treats you like a Goddess.

3. Be spontaneous and gain some mastery over your "issues" about control and surrender. Learn to go with the flow. Lighten up!

4. Create a special wish list of "essential summer love qualities" and read it to yourself every day for 30 days, or until your ideal summer love appears. Add in your own personal requirements to some of the suggestions below and by the time July rolls around, true summer love will be getting closer! (I've used the pronoun "He," but feel free to adapt to your needs).

Your Summer Love...    

  • Glances at you in a way that makes you feel you are the only two human beings on the planet.
  • Communicates appreciation in the most delightful ways.
  • Can dissolve all your concerns and worries with just one kiss.
  • Is, in your eyes, a breath-taking hunk of handsomeness, with a body and manner that make you glad you are a girl.
  • Has a master's degree in The Art of Love.
  • Is so romantic and alluring that even if your favorite movie star called for a date, you wouldn't leave your Summer Love.
  • For an entire summer he is yours - body, mind and spirit - and you are his, and you revel in your own vulnerability and willingness.
  • You have frequent out of body experiences in his presence.
  • You really like him a lot
  • He will say, more than once, "You are the most beautiful (sexy, gorgeous, etc.) woman I have ever seen," "I love your spirit (soul, who you are, etc.)," "Let's go shopping so I can lavish you with gifts, my love!"
Remember, it may seem like a summer fling, but Summer Love Consciousness is actually an educational experience. It can teach you to lighten up about love and expectations. Summer Love Consciousness is a state of mind you can enter any time... and your soul mate will ultimately be ever so happy to meet you there, in the land of carefree abandon, where love can speak for itself and have a chance to grow. And where you can be the Summer Love Goddess you are meant to be.
