I’ve had an iPhone for just over a year now, and have just recently upgraded to the 4.0 version! Each time, I have notice slight but appreciable improvements that enhance the use and experience of the phone. Come to think of it, I can’t think of any area in my life where I haven’t received an offer to upgrade to the next level and haven’t taken it. After all, why wouldn’t you trade up?
However, I never thought that LOVE needed to be upgraded. Now that I know what is out there, I feel very passé!
I connected with Liyana Silver after reading one of her smart & inspiring articles in New York Spirit Magazine about the Tiger Woods affair(S). For once, there were no platitudes, clichés or banalités! She took the high road without taking sides, elevating the debate to find a new and fresh perspective to an otherwise very old & stale subject.
Since then I have enjoyed reading her articles and upgrading my vision of LOVE.
To start with your upgrade (and get a taste of Liyana’s style), you must first check that you haven’t contracted one of the following 3 diseases: Blandification, Superwomanitis or Impassification…(read the symptoms below…)
If you have, don’t jump on your phone to dial 911 just yet. Liyana has the remedies that will cure all of your ailments d’amour and give you an upgrade without crashing to Love 3.0!
You’ve got Blandification if …
* It’s after the afterglow of the honeymoon phase, and you’re left with a dull sense that something isn’t right.
* You are wondering, is this it? What did I get myself into? Did I make a mistake? Did I pick the wrong person?
* You love each other, but monogamy has become monotony.
* You are feeling boxed in, bored and you’re making each other miserable.
* You are not sure if it’s going to last, if it’s going to work, or if you are going to make it.
You’ve got Superwomanitis if …
* Running after “having it all” is sapping your soul. Overwhelm is an understatement.
* You are used to doing for others and doing without – and your light has gone out in the process.
* You feel like you have to choose: you or the relationship; you or your career; your career or the relationship. Any way you slice it, it stings.
* The true flames within you and between you and your partner have died down to embers. You’re getting tired of running on fumes.
* You wonder if lasting love is humanly possible.
You’ve got Impassification if…
* You want to do this whole relationship thing different, but you don’t know exactly what that would be – and you don’t want to mess up what you have.
* When you try to make it better, it ends up digging you deeper into the problem.
* You could be experiencing attraction for another – or serious bouts of jealousy – and you’re not sure how to fit that into your commitment to each-other.
* You might be wondering how to continue after infidelity or cheating.
* It would seem that either the relationship or an important part of you h
As I said before ladies, I promise if you’re suffering from these symptoms, your love affair isn’t on the death bed just yet. Just some time on the operating table or a quick visit to your physician could be the cure! Liyana suggests everything from Baby’s got (passion!) back! to Rock out this hard place!. From my experience, sometimes a little fever is a good thing, and it can even leave you in better form than before. Whether or not you’re willing to swallow Liyana’s elixir…well that, mes amis, is up to you!
