When we love



Love's greatest form is to sacrifice ones life for another. Like how Jesus died on the cross for us. But now, no one needs to get killed. Maybe, love is the greatest when one sacrifices, in any and even in the simplest forms of sacrifice.

When we love, we don't expect anything back. When one confesses love to the other person, it is almost always that the person who confessed, already accepted that it will never be a win-win situation. It will be one sided and unrequited but, way better, than love that is kept in the deepest unknown grounds of the heart.

That's the thing about love, you know what it really means only when you are loved back or when you accept that the person you chose among the billions in this universe will never be able to give back the love you are willing to spare.

When you accept that the person will be happier with someone else. 
When you think about their happiness more than your own.
And when you finally let things go but never forgetting how special it is to love.

Love lives, Love dies



Every love affair has it’s lifetime. This that as long as it has a start it has a finish.  Some relationships last to the end of partners lifetime, some die soon after they started.

Love may start as the strongest passion but time passes and the storm of emotions calms down, relationships once so bright and full of surprises become routine. It drags on for a while and than comes crisis. A couple can either survive through it or fall apart.

Even when the love is gone it’s always hard to realise that you have to quit something once so good. There’s no certain way to decrease the sad feelings about falling apart. You may only try to stay civilised people about it and to let the one who’s leaving do it without making up grandiose scandals and hysterics.


Although some think that it’s better to stay enemies than friends because than you will have nothing to regret about and won’t execute meaningless attempts to get things back. But is it so right to ruin all the memories about the happy time two people have spent together with ugly scenes screaming and blaming each other in the worst sins?

It’s over when it’s over and sometimes it’s obvious that all is over. Two people scream and shout one at the other almost everyday, they have nothing to talk about and if they do every conversation turns into a quarrel, one finds faults with everything the other does, they both simply annoy each other. That’s definitely the end.   

The question is where the love’s gone. Nobody knows it. Maybe they’ve been spending too much time together and finally have started to bore each other. Maybe he has stopped telling her about his love and she has stopped feeling it. Maybe time has made the illusions disappear and the reality has turned to be not what they both expected. Maybe there was only passion and after it’s gone nothing has left. There can be plenty of those maybes. Every misfortune has it’s own face. It may even be that nothing is over but people need to take a little rest one from the other or try to diversify their relationships. In fact when each one of a couple is willing to fight to make love stay they’ll find the way to do it.

The real tragedy is when one still feels the love but the other is bored and wants to leave. If the feeling is really gone no tricks will help to keep the partner, sooner or later he or she will finally leave and those few more weeks together won’t make you happier. The only thing you can really do in this case is to try to get over him/her as soon as possible. That misery will pass as the happiness did.

Sometimes (and it specially refers to women) a man looses his interest to a woman because she has given up her job, interests, friends and etc. in order to become the part of his life, to be everything he needs. He doesn’t have to conquer her no more, she has stopped being a personality with her own life that he had once fallen in love with. If fact this is one of the general mistakes people do. They get too comfortable and stop fighting for each others love. And than when a partner starts packing bags they wonder where did I go wrong.

But still in very many cases lost love isn’t anyone’s fault. It is just the way things go. We should never stop believing that next time the feeling will be real and will finally last to the very end. We have no limit of times that we can fall in love and so although it’s sad to loose love, each time we do we should try to look at it as on the chance to find a new better one.

A Breakup Letter



[Insert name Here],

            In this life, we have to do major choices that will permanently change our lives. Mine hasn’t change since high school for I didn’t make any decision for myself... I always decide for what’s good for everybody. I’m still the same me... I never matured. I never grew. I always follow other people and not what my heart shouts out. I think I never made a choice because there is always a helping hand beside me. There is always someone who thinks for me. There is always someone who makes choices for me. There is always someone willing to take the responsibilities I must do. And in my life right now… It was you.
             You’re a very good person in and out. I thank God for you. You helped me in everyway you can. You carried my bag, cooked for me, burned a CD for me, wrote a letter for me, sang a song for me, love me, cared for me and made me stronger.  You’re such wonderful gift. With you I know there is always a helping hand to hold on to…

             You taught me many things like solving my math equations, being a good girl, and of course, how can I forget, you’re the one who taught me How to love. You made me a better person I am today. You taught me to be considerate, to control my temper, to ride jeeps, buses & LRT’s and how to walk longer…. You even taught me how to fly and to reach for my dreams. But you never taught me the harder things. It’s easy to say I love you but It’s never easy to say goodbye.

            I guess we have to be used to it now.

            We are now oceans apart, neither bridge nor telephone lines are enough to fill the space between us. We can’t fool ourselves—we can’t have unfinished fairytales waiting for happy endings. We won’t wait for our fairytales. We won’t wait for each other. No, absence does not make the heart grow fonder, absence makes the heart forget. It’s like a thief who visits us in the middle of the night to snatch what we feel for each other…

            We will be longing for each other soon… but let’s not be its prey. We have to grow. We will grow, but we will grow apart. I will come back “if” I can, but no promises will be broken for no promises will be made.

            Don’t beg me to stay… Love isn’t enough. Probably freedom and independence is…

Always,

Jamie

PS:

I trust you. I know that you wont destroy your life because of me.Let everything that happened be an inspiration for a good start. I care for you and remember, Caring is greater than Loving.

I tried to send it a million times...but I just cant click the send button... 



love, now and always, 

So Remember Me One Day as Kind

 When I die, I want people to remember me as kind. It hasn’t always been that way. Four years ago, I was a very different person, a wounded...
