Tuesday, July 20, 2010 Someone who is the perfect guy/girl for you. So who is this someone really? Alot of us will say that it will be the person who walks a blissful path with you when together; a person who is really similar and there is no real need to tolerate or compromise with. The others, argue that it is the person who walks a turbulent path with you; a person who reaches the end with you. Well if you pick the latter, wouldn't you have a life full of suffering than, if you do have the need to tolerate and compromise till the end? The Buddha said,"There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth; not going all the way, and not starting." Just to alter his quotation a little, I feel that there are only two mistakes one can make along the road of love; not going all the way, and not starting. Love can be distinguished between conditional love, and unconditional love. I bet you have some clues in mind what they seem to mean. Oh really? Love by true definition, is to bring happiness. While conditional love will mean clearly a fictitious form of love that seeks personal gains, unconditional love is one that requires a huge load of courage and acceptance (or more of self-acceptance). Now, when you say I love you, What do you really mean? Do you seek emotional comfort cos there will be someone to hug you? Or do you seek eternal happiness for him/her no matter how she is like? My dear, I love you. Wanting to love unconditionally is difficult, it takes courage really. To finally identify and continue to love (unconditionally) this person takes effort. Effort of self-reflection. It is through acceptance and appreciation. Not true tolerance and compromise. If walking the turbulent path till the end is a suffering to you, your love is conditional. Love unconditionally. That is what I'm still trying to. It is never easy. I really hope for your happiness, however my words and actions harm you sometimes. You are not that different really. Shall we self-reflect a little sometimes? Although the answers may not come that directly and it is more than what we can explain, but walk this path with me will you? Till the end. i'm so sure of what i feel inside 10:51 PM |
