Last night I gave my six year old grandaughter a very loving back massage with essential oils. It felt very good, it made my grandaughter feel very good. Thats it, nothing more and nothing less. It felt good, very good. I think this should be done in society more often. I think we should all be able to show very deep love for each other, like a love power boost. It energises us and makes the world a better place, it makes us better people. Have I lost the plot, or is love dissapearing in this world faster than I can keep up ? Why do I feel like a pervert ? Because, I can remember a time when people did that for each other and it was normal, it was held in the highest respect. It was given freely, and recieved freely. Whenever the time arose to share a deep love with another human being for whatever reason, that deep love was shared. It made the world a better place, it made us better people.
The western world at the moment is full of, and obessed with, child abuse..... Any other suggestions...?
If you ? gave a six year old little girl an aromatherapy back massage, and felt good doing it, felt her feeling good under it. Felt it like giving and recieving a very deep love.....Would you feel like a pervert ?
See what I mean.. This topic is too scary for anyone to reply too..! So have I lost the plot...? I am a grandmother..this is my grandaughter... And you wonder why I feel like a pervert ? Anybody out there willing to take this topic on as a normal human being ?
I'd be gratfeul for that love, I'd enjoy it for what it was, a bond of love between two people, regardless of the context. Now that is wonderful
I don't think it's "pervy" for a grandmother to give her granddaughter a relaxing massage. I just think it's sad that there's been a lot of attention paid to child abuse in the news lately (obviously don't ignore it, but don't bombard people with it either) and this current social context we live in may have made you feel a bit "weird" but I don't think there's anything weird about it I think it's great that you have that bond with your granddaughter.
Thanks.. I dont think it's wierd. I think it's sad that we are loosing the art of loving each other deeply..
everytime you read the paper or watch the news it's always got headlines which are bad news. Murders, rapes, terror attacks... it's not good to have a populace who live under such pressure. Sometimes I think they make it all up, I remember hearing a lot in the news here in the UK about how the US government was expecting "a terror attack sometime over the summer" that it would be big. People on the news here in the UK were busy discussing the possible implications of another terror attack on US soil. All that negativism can't be good. I think.... I think everyone should chill out, smoke a fattie and go have some goddamn fun!
that is completley normal. I mena if it is normal for you to give her a bath, why not a massage right?
strawpuppy hold your head up woman, who's job if not yours is it to give your own grdkids medicinal massage and feel good about it.. that was aroma therapy is all about, to have a deep connection with your grdbabies is natural in some ways closer to you then your grown kids.. the love you were sending to the universe reached the source because nothing is stronger than Mother Love and it was able to penatrate into the source and gain power and sent back to you 100 fold, your not use to this prue love right from the source and you just didn't know how to except it, it felt un-natural to you and you felt uneasy about it... next time you feel that strongly.. embrace it and send it back out there to get some more...Love Shameless
You are lucky to be close to your grandkids. I had a close relationship with my grandparents and I treasure that. They are gone now but taught me about integrity, cherishing family and lots of other valuable lessons. You have given your grandaughter a gift. The unconditional love of her grandparent. If more families were like that then children would learn how to love instead of judge and hate.
I can't give back rubs to anyone but females 16 or older, i wouldn't feel right doing it to anyone else
Thanks to you all for replying. Shameless-hiefer, thanks so much for your kind words of wisdom, they are just about as perfect to the way I feel as it can get.... Life is about believing in the good in yourself, no matter which way the current is running...Quote: "Above all things know this, to thine own self be true...." William Shakespear... Sincerely, Thanks again strawpuppy
If more families strived to be closer, spend more loving time with each other, we probably wouldn't have a society mind-set that would make grandmothers feel strange about loving their grandbabies in natural ways. Its natural to hug and kiss and rub the ones you love. There is nothing sexual in what you are doing. People get sensual and sexual mixed up also. A massage is sensual...it awakes the senses..touch, smell. What a lovely gift, this child will grow up knowing that we all need to touch each other more, be closer more, love each other more, and hopefully won't be afraid to show it. You're a GRAND Grandmother. I wish I'd of had a granny like you, teepi
