Thoughts...

Upon surfing the net, I found this very nice quote it says "The greatness of love is not in its clinging on to the beloved but its capacity to give space to the point of letting go of the beloved in order for the beloved to live a meaningful life. We should never doubt ever whether someone loves us or not." Very true indeed. I just can't understand on why we can't simply apply this in our lives. Maybe because we're only humans which means nobody is perfect? I myself is troubled applying this in my life. If I love someone, I tend to overprotect him or her and won't let them go out of my sight as much as I can. I'm protecting them inside my comfort zones, I'm putting them behind the bars, and want to see the outside world with me alone. I want to be with them if I try to explore places, in all my memorable occasions. I'm making them my world, that I cannot enjoy my life without them anymore. And time comes that they want to be with others and sad to say, will upset me. And asks my self, how come they enjoyed without me? Here comes the problem. I became selfish that all I'm thinking is "I".  I admit until now I'm still trying to live my own life with them as part of it of course. Maybe this selfishness of mine is deeply rooted already that makes me hard to let go of such things. I'm making them my world which is not supposedly. It took me years to realize all this things. Everyday, little by little God makes me realize things. Being far from your loved ones is not at all bad. It will make you even more good and mature. Lastly, I want to emphasize a little bit of this line "We should never doubt ever whether someone loves us or not." We usually makes mistakes and do crazy things just because of "doubts". Right? You see, we doubt almost everything even with our loved ones. For those who are married, you ladies and gentlemen should never doubt your partners knowing that they chose you to be their life partners. I know that this is not applicable to all but for those who still believe in love keep your love alive. For those who are in doubt, there's a reason for everything try to find that reason and take note also that the heart does things for reasons that reason cannot understand. As for me, I still have a lot to discover, enjoy and keep the love alive. Mwahhugs everyone!
