i wanna talk about something new...
LOVE <3
Love
is the most abused word in the world according to my English professor -
whom i suppose got the trivia through the fastest source of getting
rumors - the Internet. So, it's like i was going to abuse it even more,
just by
talking about it here. HAHA. Anyway, what could be
new
about it? What d'ye think? (see my word "d'ye"? My prof also told us
that means "do you" and is pronounced like "ju") ANYWAAAAYS.
Love isn't
new. But, we can make it new just by exploring that word...that word
can take you places; can make you dream; can make you restful...and
maybe, even fall asleep...with sweet dreams, eh? But scratching the
surface doesn't make it the
real love. It is being
IN it...
I
was reminded that "My LOVE" was the most abused person in the world!
Oh, how i ran back to Him because of His eternal love for me...for us!
My Love, Jesus, died for us...
HE died for us...
His great love scattered just as His blood on the cross.....and
then, He died...yet, as He promised, Jesus rose from the dead! and yes,
He's alive and we can enjoy His presence now! What an awesome idea
Lord! *high-five for that! :))))
By the way, almost
everyday i am seeing people going in and out of love; diving in and out
of it; and sometimes, just swims, flows, and muddles in it as they live
for their lifetime motto:
Just go with the flow.
I have questions:
WHAT flows? WHERE did the FLOW came from? can we stop this FLOW? If this can be stopped, HOW? If this can't be stopped, WHY?
I'm not about to talk based on my experience, since, I have nothing to talk about
at all. Talk about AWESOME! Well, seriously...
So, yes again, who am I to talk about human love when i just don't know about it........that
much??
I know, I know the love that runs naturally in our blood - for God, for
our family, for our dogs, for our hairstyle, coffee and books...but,
let's talk about this certain love that people had been looking for
ages... *goosebumps*
I am always heart-broken whenever i
see pregnant teenagers, fighting couples, shallow mindsets, three-day
relationships as if they'd just been attached with each other during
their vacation...and after the "good times" they split apart, let alone
the thing they call as "one-night stand"...the worse proof of "once
love" scenario that I've EVER seen so far was...er...actually,
were KIDS (majority were
minor in
age) distributing empty envelopes inside our public vehicles -
jeepneys, while expecting us, the passengers, to put something
IN it...the parents' belief that "the children is our treasure" makes a nonsense a
sense
after all......SAD. :'( These kids, i mean, where are their parents?
If they produced these kids out of love, why are they treating them
almost like
punishing them?
I've been thinking a
lot these past few days about this topic. And writing about love just
makes me look up at the sky more and look blankly to people as i
brainstorm with myself...i am wishing for the rain to pour for a
dramatic effect... <3
I have concluded as my first-hand
evidence that love has an equation before and during the commitment.
Yet, love has no equation at all...we can say it just happens, yet, it
isn't a
happening. Commitment is a decision; a conclusion made
by two people trying to SOLVE their feelings for each other, and it is
never a happening but, it is an event that the two subjects
want to happen. Love is not struggling. If you like the person, just show it, if not tell it. What works for you to show love isn't a
problem. What makes it a
problem
is when you don't become yourself because you've been so focused on
"What shall i wear so he/she will like me? What shall i say? How will i
say it?" and so on, and so forth...
The equation of love is not about:
-the right dress/outfit at the right time and place
-the right words at the right time and place
-the right family, religion, affiliations
-the right work
-the right salary
Well,
as you can see as much as i presume, a person's outside appearance and
"extra curricula" isn't the variable X in the love equation. If you
think you should read more of this, these are the most important:
-love
(scratch the goosebumps here. this love (i think) is what you feel for
the person despite of his outside imperfections. You see, we have the
tendency of loving the person first, if he/she has the right outside
appearance (just like what i mentioned above)
-loyalty
(this person is loyal to you. as simple as that. Yes he/she can break 2
out of the 5 promises he/she said, but, make sure it's NOT 4 out of 5!
WTH.
-honesty (hate it when he/she lies like 4 minutes
within your five minutes! Tip: the person is not lying if he/she can
look straight in your eyes, is not perspiring and doesn't look around
and sounds like a dog's chasing him/her!)
Yet, with all
these presumptions i therefore conclude that the love equation becomes
unnecessary, when the person spills the milk. The milk is something
you've been carrying from the past, but this one doesn't get
spoiled...It just
smells spoiled. This milk, i must say, might
be your secrets; hurts; fears; addiction; sickness...The worse thing
that could happen as your
milk got spilled was the "non-acceptance" of the other person (the one you love) on that mess...it is up to you
when
you will spill your milk...as long as you will be reminded that the
reaction of your gal/guy will either lengthen or shorten and even cease
your relationship...but i'm not saying you SHALL never spill the milk.
We always have spilled milks in our lives. It's just the right timing.
It's not like the "love at first sight" thing that acts on the "right
time..."
Love is true when, despite your spilled milk, your loved one cleans it and embraces you after...
i think this is hanging. haha.
anyways, what do you think?
comments please, dears :) <3
