Its not that hard to love
Al mio amore,
Believe is the key to attaining the best of both world. what i mean by both world is for oneself and the target reach one is striving towards. it is not hard to see what i mean. When you belive in yourself, you attain what we call a confident boost, or a higher morale. In relationships and such, this is really important. surely you do not want to live all your life with someone who is not confident and is afraid to reach new hights. but then again, we need to have a balance. in any relationship if balcance is not achieved, most of the time it will lead to the end of that relationship.
the other world i want to bring to attention is the receiving party. when you believe, you must belive in something. that something can be seen as the other world. this is what in english literature it would mean. but i wont be dealing with english, grammar or whatnots because i have no authority to speak about them. but what im trying to say is, one needs to belive in whatever he wants to acheive. for they say, confidence or believing in what you do, half the battle has already been won.
but besides that, back to the theme of this blog. Lovesick. i have been thinking while on my hiatus what it means to be loved.or rather, it should be, "what is love?"
Love is eternal, and the transitory nature of all things pertaining to this world is a sign of truth, a sign that shows us by means of contrast. Real spiritual love, love of God and love of mankind for the sake of God is the only truth, the only thing in this world that is permanently and constantly sweet. Physical separation from someone you love, in accordance with the rule that pertains to the physical, may create a longing that will cause love to increase, may augment the bliss of reunion. But on the spiritual level that love is constant, is never interrupted by distance nor by time. Your beloved may be on the moon and you may be in bliss at the thought of reunion, but if love is unrequited, that is not sweet separation but a bitter pill. The extinction of love is pitch darkness. You may regard the sunset as beautiful, but how would you feel if it were setting forever?
Love is the water of life. God created Adam from clay and water. If it were not for water the clay would hold no shape. Divine Love is what binds our souls together. That is why people become so miserable when they feel unloved. It is a feeling that something essential is missing from one's life, that life itself is incomplete, and in the face of this ache people set out in search of love with the desperation of a man dying of thirst.
The Lord created us and loves us; that is why everyone loves love. No one complains of love or wants it to be taken from him, but all want to be loved more. Where are you seeking love? Are you taking pure water from the gushing source, or muddy, slimy water from the ditch? You love people, but they will die. Perhaps your love will be unrequited, or because of a small error or indiscretion on your part that person's heart will harden to you and love will be no more. You say that you love him or her, but do you love him or her unconditionally? Is your love permanent-love for the real immaculate divine essence living in that person, or temporary, as a result of some desirable attributes: beauty, youth, wealth, station or wit? When that beautiful, young, wealthy, clever, amiable socialite becomes an ugly, old, penniless, senile, grumpy outcast will you still love her? Is your love is of the spirit or of the world?
