You've heard that saying "I fell in love all over again".
I'm not so sure I want to do that.
Rather, I'd like to have my current love ascend (transform?) into some other level or dimension (galaxy?) that gives me the realization that I, or the love/relationship, or both is maturing and morphing into something else, hopefully, something better.
Think about it...
When you first realize you've fallen in love, and fell hard, the experience is comparable to watching a thunder/lightning storm. It's intense, wondrous, while giving a slight element of fear (from the crackling thunder & flashes of light). But it's that type of fear that keeps your feet planted in place while being in awe of the sights and sounds around you. The torrential rain you see (remember, I said it's like watching a storm, not being in one - being in a storm is a whole different experience that I'm sure we rather stay out of) is almost unbelievable but something about it is soothing as you watch blankets of water pound the pavements and building rooftops. Sometimes, the storm goes by so fast. But when it's over, you say to yourself "that was cool!". It's an experience that you enjoyed.
The closest experience to "falling in love all over again" is when new feelings like selflessness creep up - when you look at the other person and think to yourself of the past, present, and future compromises you've willingly and unwillingly done. When the peace between you becomes romantic and feels like home.
