Is love for real? A question that each one of us must have faced at some point of time in our lives. Why do we feel so strongly for someone, why do we feel completely helpless and at the mercy of the one we love the most? No explanation offers respite from these gnawing thoughts. Should love make us feel so powerless? Isn’t it supposed to make us feel complete, secured, and content? Well agreed it isn’t always a bed of roses, the thorns appear when we least expect them. Blame it on destiny, the unforeseen forces or anything that seems beyond our control, but the truth is that when the same love that gave us a reason to smile can become the cause of our misery.
Healing comes with time just like the tide always turns, a night always turns into day and winter always turns to spring, each of these phenomena signal a wave of fresh hope. Agreed the moments of melancholy seem endless, the pain unbearable, the anxiety over future looms ahead, but if we do not experience a plethora of emotions, we are cheating on life, finding short cuts to avoid occurrences which shape us, make us more human. The lessons may seem harsh just like when we were little and hated professors who scolded us, but do not forget that they only had our good in mind.
Embracing pain is no easy feat; enduring hurt is an effort, living when all you want to do is stop breathing is by no means an easy task, but BELIEVE that this will also come to pass. Nothing can hurt more than you allow it to, you will not feel this way forever, freedom from this ache is as far as you believe it is or as near you think it is, either ways you are right. Easy for the world to tell you to renounce the pain and move ahead, but the heart that has suffered may not always find it easy to piece itself together to become whole again. Time does heal, assure yourself you will be whole again, pray, have faith, that life will echo a song of joy and happiness once again; the heart which was once filled with sorrow will sing the tune of love. It is very easy to give up and claim that you will not be the same again, requires courage to act difficult and not bow down to the adversities we face in life.
Close confidantes may not understand your suffering, the world may mock you for your frailty, but do not feel lonesome in this inner conflict of emotion, always remember you have YOURSELF to rely on. As long as you can be your own pillar, you will be fine, draw strength from your inner self, let the inner transformation happen at its own pace, don’t force yourself into believing or acting in a way which you disagree with. You may feel you have lost the battle, feelings of uselessness may plague your mind, do not let them overpower you, as there is no such thing as failure, it is only a perspective. At the end of it all what matters is what you believe in, if you think you gave it your best, that is the highest truth, nothing anyone says matters at all. Life is worth all the happiness and sorrows it inflicts upon us, do not slander this precious gift, each one of us is unique and have been blessed to create and mould it the way we desire, do not hand over this gift to anyone to misuse. You will laugh again, you will feel this emotion once again, only if you do not block your heart and shrivel up, you will dazzle with pride once again, you will LOVE again, as we are the result of love, and to love is where we shall return.
