why we learn the hard way

who can understand love, anyway?  all of us are clueless when the real thing comes in.  we let ourselves be taken away by it -- literally and figureatively speaking.


we let ourselves get to the point where it hurts too much the only way to come out of it alive is to let go.  we just don't give up n love that easy.  we use up all of our remaining resources, strength, time and evergy up until that last speck of it.


we always try to figure out something, even make up lousy ideals just for us to hold on to that feeling, to the person.


it's wrong.  but everyone does it -- and these days it kind of turns out to be a normal thing to do already.  people are freaks, they inflict pain and when it stings, we just don't stop until it's almost going to kill us.  


we listen to soppy stories our friends tell us, thinking that will never happen to us for we know what to do when it happens.  but do we ever learn, really?


stop the illusion that we could only be happy if we're with the person we love.  happiness comes from within, from everywhere.  it's not just from one person.


love yourself.  find your self-worth, the one that is based on your basic existence as a person.  God did not create us just to meet someone, fall in love then get married.  find your sense of meaning and purpose in life.  and when you achieve this one, trust me - you'll get your balance.  your inner peace.  you can easily let go.  you can easily be happy. you can easily love again.
