To be sensual means the desired consciousness that sets in while gratifying the physiques of Life or it requires the use of our sense organs to derive pleasures and satisfaction from physical (and virtual) things of life. This ranges from what we see, feel, touch and imagine when we come to meet with an attractive person or thing. Being sensual shows that your sense organs are intact and active but being sensually addicted can be quite undesirable at times because not all that is desirable by you is good for you. When there is money, you may be tempted to attempt something that isn't proper or ethical but when you lack the financial power or resources you need, you may not show the interest of taking an unfair means or decision.
Sensuality, i think is really a proof that the brain is functioning optimally as your body is wired in such a way that your sensory nerve cells are able to respond to stimulus or a sense of touch. Sensuality is life to our mind and body, it needs to be exercised constantly to boost it's viability. It makes us who we are and what we are. It defines us by our ability. Sensuality is required for life and survival because "to every action, there's an equal and opposite reaction" as formulated by Newton's third law of motion. Though one thing I've come to realize is that the act of sensuality can be a fantasy at most times.
When you meet with someone naked for the first time that is said to have an attractive outlook, there is tendency you start desiring such an individual even without touching him/her. This triggers the secretion of certain chemicals that stimulates your sense organs to be alert and ready for the next move. This is the more reason we love at most times, but later come to discover that it's just a mere fantasy after getting what we wanted.
Many has fallen astray due to bad marriages or wrong relationships. You love a man because he's tall and handsome. Whenever you see him, your body moves and feel the urge to have sex with him, but what happens after gratifying your sexual desire with him? He probably dumps you to befriend another lady and all you could say is that he cheated on you. Sensual love indeed, can be a fantasy.
Why do you love? What are the desirable traits you wish to see in that man or lady you want to spend the rest of your life with? It has been noted that one man's food is another man's poison. Life can be complicated at times but one just need to deal patiently with its circumstances.
Be patient enough to know that you want in the opposite sex and be careful not to get your self misleaded because sensual love could be a fantasy.
Many are product of suicide attempt, heartbreak, hard drugs, infidelity and many others due to the danger of sensual fantasy they've experienced at one stage or the other in life. What is required of the mind is self-control, self-discipline, wisdom and proper caution. Though "No man is perfect" but it takes the test of time to know and filter the sensual desire that you want. So take heed, be wise and never let your life be controlled by sensual love alone because it might be a fantasy. Save yourself the unnecessary stress and heart break, pray, observe carefully to be sure of your feeling and whom you're dealing with.
