IT'S LOVE

If you find yourself in love with someone who does not love you, be gentle with yourself. There is nothing wrong with you. Love just didn't choose to rest in the other person's heart. If in some instances, you find someone else in love with you and you don't love him/her, feel honored that love came and called at your door but gently refuse the gift you cannot return. Do not take advantage, do not cause pain.

How you deal with love is how love deals with you and all our hearts feel the same pains and joys. Even if our lives and ways are different. If you fall in love with another and he/she falls in love with you. But at some point love chooses to leave, do not try to reclaim it or assess blame, just let it go. There is a reason and there is a meaning. For sure you will know it in time.

Remember that you don't choose love. Love chooses you and all you can really do is accept it for all its mystery when it comes into your life. Feel the way if fills you to overflowing then reach out and give it away. Give it back to the person who brought it alive in you. Give it to others who deem it poor in spirit. Give it to the world around you in anyway you can. This is where many lover go wrong. Having been so long without love and they begin to look at love as something that flows to them rather than from them.

Its like the first blush of new love filled to overflowing, but as their love cools down they revert to seeing love as a need. They cease to be someone who generates love and instead become someone who seeks love. They forget that the secret of love is that it is a gift and that it can be made to grow only by giving it away. Always remember this and keep it in your heart. Love has its own time, its own seasons, and its own reason for coming and going. You cannot bribe it or coerce it, or even reason it into staying. You can only embrace it when it arrives and give it away when it comes to you. But if it chooses to leave from you heart or from the heart of your lover, there is nothing you can do and there is nothing you should do. Love always has been and always will be a mystery. Be glad that it came to live for a moment in your life.

KNOW HOW MUCH LOVE CAN HURT YOU
By: Maria Elouisa E. Enerlan, January 12, 2008

Love is such a powerful word and so mysterious that anyone can bear within themselves. Along my life's journey seraching for that someone who will appreciate and love me for who I am. I guess it's time for me to stop searching. It's not because I'm giving up on love. It's the thought that along my life's journey I grew tired of searching.

As what they say love is not always like a fairytale... Maybe its the thought that there are people who give so much to those who doesn't love them back. There are some who feel so loved and find out in the end that they were fooled. There are some who's into mutual love but can't call their partner as their own coz someone already holds the title. There are some who give so much love but the other won't believe coz they always consider your past. There are some who receive so much love but can't seem to move on from their previous relationship. Or others just want to play the game and choose their playmates. Now as you read what I have written in here. Can you really tell if which story is yours?

I know there's always a reason why we have to move on and forget the feelings we've always wanted to stay forever. Coz love has its on wings to set free and find the right place where it should be. Sometimes I ask myself if why do we fall for someone who's not really meant for us? Should we blame ourselves for falling for the wrong one? Or should we blame the one we fell for? Coz they made us believe that they are the one. I guess it's just the way how life goes when you fall. People fall inlove not knowing WHY or HOW. It's so special, a feeling that doesn't require much answers... Coz all you just have to do is to LOVE no matter how stupid you become. With all the heartaches I've experienced in my life it made think of these questions that really made sense to me. "Would you love someone who completes you? Or a person who loves you completely?"
