“Love is a fire," declared actor Joan Crawford. "But whether it's going to warm your hearth or burn down your house, you can never tell."
I disagree with her conclusion. There are practical steps you can take to ensure that love's fire warms but doesn't burn. I believe it's your sacred duty to know about them.
Start with these strategies:
• Suffuse your libido with compassion.
• Imbue your romantic fervor with empathy.
• Instill your animal passions and instinctual longings with affectionate tenderness.
• If you notice your urges driving you toward narcissists who are no good for you, use all your forceful willpower to redirect those urges toward emotionally intelligent, self-responsible candidates.
I recommend you enjoy an animalistic phase every now and then—in the best sense of "animalistic." And yes, you really do need to feed regularly from your primal instincts.
What might that involve?
• Identify the part of you that's best described as "a beautiful beast." Be curious about it. Commune with it. Nurture it.
• Another way to imagine how to proceed is to tune into your visceral intelligence. Regard your body as having a genius of its own that your mind may only be partly aware of.
• Express your beautiful beast in the real world. See how life responds.
• Be alert for and receptive to the beautiful beast in other people.
