To Love Or Be Loved

害怕?



The century old question that we repeatedly ask ourselves, is happiness the ability to love somebody or to be loved. We tend to ask ourselves and even people around us due to insecurities we can't get rid of. You will have the answer when you find that you wouldn't have to ask anymore because it doesn't matter the 0.2% more that you're giving because the contentment is way above what you think you're getting from the other person. Besides, some love can't be quantified with percentage or even how much it's being displayed.

However, we all bring scars into our relationships. Do scars make us stronger or allow the next cut to penetrate easier and deeper? Is it fair to let your current partner live in the shadow of your previous partner? The answer is clear but to live it is yet another challenge. When one is finally able to love the person for who the person is regardless of the emotional baggage carried over from past relationships, then all scars should just be superficial and merely a mark to prove that you've been there and you've done that. The process is painful but with the belief that tomorrow is to be filled up with more beautiful hopes and dreams, time will get us over this bridge.

Those of you who knows me on a personal level will know my favourite quote by George Sand. I believe in only one happiness in life and it shouldn't be in any way, be compromised.

害怕...


我突然觉得有点怕
爱跟生活的一切
你以为我知道怎么拆开
我们的想法落差


我的爱
是说停不能停
已经弄的不能说是曾经
也可说出我是错的
爱未曾变成真的
也没藏到多少你需要的爱
我不再 去执拙我是谁
我是我在夜里掉的眼泪
也可说我看不开的
为你我能做的
竟还没让你相信是爱情
左右你我


而哭泣都是因为爱
也逼自己不掉泪
让往日不只是有你
这网里我也撑着
拼了命的守着

Any reason why they should both be mutually exclusive?

How about to be in love, the full experience of it all, the giving, and receiving (I don't mean taking). The experience, the joys, the learning, the growth of it all, together or apart, some say pains and agony, the emotion and feeling of being truely alive to experience it all, and be grateful that as a person, there is opportunity to really know what love is.

As opposed to being in love with love itself, the idea of love. There is no better or worse once love is truely understood.

Most don't understand, till they are on the receiving end, what true love is.

From Agape, everything else is just a silhouette of its true image.

Be grateful to the one above, you've got it :D. Enjoy it, frolick in it :D

Absolutely no reason why they should be mutually exclusive in the case of true happiness...

As for Agape, always ready to receive...

I still hope one day, you can have more emotions in the words you type and not have the ever politically correct answers all the time. There's alot more to life...

I'm frolicking in it. Are you? Have you missed it? Are you missing it?
