ready to love

Loving and being loved, although must forever be sisters entwined to a lasting relationship of happiness and sweet fond memories, are state of mind. These are not mere concepts conjured but realities which must be experienced although, the interplay of thoughts and ideas provoke a deeper sense and creative impact to manifesting one’s love to himself and to others.
Before loving someone (or to the extent of something) else, it is indispensable that one should have a substantial understanding of himself. A soldier ready for war is not called as such if he has no armament of his own. He will forever be lost and undecisive and to the extent of depending on someone else for his protection and well-being.
Fill your hearts with compassion and feel yourself that you are connected to the universe. It is in this connection that one finds the greater power of positive discrimination.
We all have idiosyncrasies. If we respect our individual traits, we long to be with whom who respects us for who we are, regardless of them having similar traits with us.
Being ready to love is a leap forward as the ultimate preparation to endless adventures and twists and turns of a loving relationship. It is indeed a roller-coaster ride. The person must first decide to ride. Coz once you get in, you cannot suddenly stop it without hurting yourself more.
this is the beauty of a matured relationship…
as for me… i can not wait to be in that situation…
coz am again… ready to love
several times i have said to myself i was ready to love; too bad there wasn’t anyone there to love yet. i know quite a few people who were also saying the same thing and i would tell them not to lose hope. i haven’t. if there’s one person that’s meant for you, he or she will come. and good thing you’re already ready. but when is one really? someone comes you don’t necessarily like but who loves you more, you still don’t “settle”. yes, we choose someone who respects us for who we are, in addition to being attractive to us. so i think we’re most ready when we want to be and when we want to be ready for someone in particular. could being ready be likened to stepping on a diving board but not actually jumping until someone you really like is below waiting for you in the water? it’s so much easier to be ready than to commit to the love you dove for. i agree with an author when he said that you need positive illusions – not only accept each other as you both are, but really believe in the best, most generous, and positive explanations about each other. it’s a little idealistic and it actually can apply to life in general, but in commitments, it can actually work i think. both believe that who you love and your love is the best, and that love will last. ready!
buti ka pa kua, ako kaya kelan kaya ako makakaranas mahalin ng taong mahal ko…Sana pinag-aaralan na lang din sa school ang love ano para walang bumabagsak…kya lang ito talaga ang realidad…hindi lahat sa school matututunan…bawat pa din ang cheating sa mundo ng love…waaah…panu kaya ang pakiramdam ng isang taong minamahal ng taong mahal mo rin…Keep on writing kua Pogi…galing mo talaga!
jaybeecc thanks for the warm comment. you have expounded clearly on what i was driving at. and am so in aghast to read at what you wrote that has more intensity than mine. thank you again
well, i have read everything you have written here and i was so impressed.
all the things you said were true, i’ve been into a lot already and almost gave up. i have been into what you call a roller coaster ride many times,it was indeed a very frightening and scary ride at times but still feels good somehow when you’re done with it. once you’re in it we just cant stop without being hurt so badly. but isn’t it amasing that we still manage to get up after that crippling fall, it wasn’t easy getting up on your feet but there is no other way but to stand up and move on. no body wants to be lonely all his life. we may feel that love had passed us by and finding someone we can share our life with seems to be impossible.all we do is watch our train go bye as time passes by and swiftly drifting away from us.we may be in control of our life but feels so helpless in our relationships. Nothing in this world is constant except change not even the those people we love and cherish would be with us forever. loving someone doesn’t gaurantee that he will love you back the same way as you do to him/her. there is no lasting love without constant sacrifice, that’s one thing that most of us failed to realize.
Like the author says ” THE TRAGEDY OF LOVE IS IN GETTING HURT. THE TRAGEDY OF GETTING HURT IS NOT WANTING TO LOVE AGAIN. AND THE TRAGEDY OF NOT WANTING TO LOVE AGAIN IS IN BEING ALONE ALL OUR LIVES.”
you just have to choose which way you want be.
