Love Love Love

Love, one of the simplest word yet has the most complicated meaning. It can be define depending on our own perceptions. Even science can't really explain how this works.
Well I know for a fact that February is far at reach and valentines is not even close a bit, but for today the topic I would like to discuss for this post is about such thing or as a movie and a song said "this crazy little thing we called love". I came up with this idea as I was observing people around me, and the discussions we had with regards to this.

First let me ask you this popular question people intend to ask,
Who would you choose, a person whom you love but doesn't love you back, or that person who loves you whom you can't fully love. Or in simpler term, would you rather love than to be loved or to be loved than to love.

If you answered first one, I could say that you are one of those people who believes in a fairytale kind of love. Or those people who sacrifices a lot to get hold on the feelings you and your partner has. You can be a masochist lover or a sacrificial partner.
On the other way around, If you choose the second option you are a wise lover. And you've learned that loving yourself before others is essential to maintain yourself as is. You were the kind of lover who has pride and wise enough to know when to hold on and to let go.

On these scenarios, we can't say that the other was not right, because in love there's no such thing as wrong, every kind of love affair is worth the risk and worth fighting for and it will always depends on those who were involved.

Moving on, another famous line when it comes to such topic is, "love is blind", for me, I never really believe in such saying. If love is blind how would you be able to find someone in the first place haha, but seriously, we are wise enough to see what those people we love has, but it's just that we intend to look on what they has and not what is lacking on them, in fact even a tiny piece of goodness in oneself can be enough reason for him/her to be loved. Again love is not blind, it actually makes you see the good in others.

In connection to this, there are some lovers whom was being hurt but cannot do anything but to stay,if the love was built among two people even though one lost it the other might not, and in this scenario there will be two option, it's either took the courage to walk away or wait for the time when your heart felt so tired coz that will be the only time when you'll be able to let go.

As for the long term lovers( like me and my gf), I know there would come a time when the magic is isn't there anymore, that it was not fun as it was before. Keep in mind that when that magic is gone, it doesn't necessarily means the love was gone as well. In this case one must initiate to do something to burst what the both of you still has, and also the other one must respond and do his/her part too, coz love won't work if there's only one person fighting for it to last.

Well, If I were to list down the things that were essential for love here would be the items I think both parties must posses:
First thing is acceptance, accept the fact that his/her world doesn't revolves around you, accept the fact that he/she has to say on how the relationship must pursue and most importantly accept each difference you has. Adjust for the difference and cherish the similarities that how it must work.

Trust, it is also something both of you must have for each other, however trust doesn't comes alone it must come with loyalty as well. Trust and loyalty must never be apart. Never waste trust he/she has for you and appreciate loyalty through trust.

Sacrifice, well love never end in a happily ever after, love is a working process, and it must take a step higher and higher as you go along. It must never be stuck on a state which will make the love you have unworthy, and for you to be able to make your love grows both of you must sacrifice.

Love is too broad to ponder that's why it was never meant for us to Analise but to be felt, cherished and shared.

  6. Such wisdom Mecoy kahit na very young ka pa. I rather choose the second alternative. But you are very right.
    Me and my hubby has been married for almost 23 years now, but the magic between us is still there. I just love being with his presence. Misses him much when he is away.

  9. i would agree, love is blind.. we may be very rational talking about the topic here, but once we fall in love, that might be a different story :p

    ReplyDelete
  10. and i also agree with you that, there is nothing right and nothing wrong.. each person has their own perceptions and believes, so what is love to you may not be love to others.. :)

    ReplyDelete
  28. Cant relate.. Pero i want to understand love.. love for someone not family or friends because i always know that.. yung syota..

    ReplyDelete
  29. Trabaho muna MEcoy...

    Ang masasabi ko lang wag ma-in love sa pag-aakalang ikaw ay in love. LOL

    ReplyDelete
  30. oh love. I only know a little of it. but you raised good points..especially the trust and loyalty parts.

    ReplyDelete
  31. love love love nga naman...

    alam ko lang masarap ma in love.... wag lang masaktan hehehe

    musta na diyan

    ReplyDelete
  32. VERY WELL SAID MECCOY!!! napakaganda ng pagkakasabi mo!

    I chose the first one haha, medyo selfish... love someone who can't love you back. Sabi kasi... worst curse is not being able to love... kaya di ako dun sa 2nd haha.

    Pero di din naman para selfish kung piliin ko yung 1st. Mahirap din yun, kasi kahit minsan niloloko ka na nagbubulagbulagan ka pa... niloloko ka kasi alam niyang gustong gusto mo siya... hahaha may pinagdadaanan ako???

    And I agree with you... Love is not blind... yung mga negative things about your special someone, parang yun yung dahilan bakit naging stronger ang love mo for him/her. Parang... kahit na ganito ka love pa rin kita... diba? :).

    I really love this post!

    ReplyDelete
  33. Dito ko napatunay na totoo ang kasabihan na....love is a many splendored thing hehe :)


    Stay safe and dry Mecoy! :)

  34. been missing your blog posts! love this one!

  35. There is great wisdom in this post. I think you have it right. I've been married for 33 years. It hasn't always been easy but it has been worth working for. And ultimately, trust and respect are much more important than passion, because we never know where life will take us.

  36. Nice.. Love is a many splendored thing.. haha.

  37. "I know there would come a time when the magic is isn't there anymore, that it was not fun as it was before.

    Yes. The magic may be gone but one can rekindle it. It takes work. LOVE takes work to make it last.

    Happy day MeCoy. :)

  38. parang kanta ng queen yun ah.. "crazy little thing called love" oops close lng sa topic mo... ooops ulet teka wrong generation ata but its a beautiful song .. try it s youtube..

    for me in this world, we have hundreds or even thousands of possible partners in life..but you need to go out there and find 1 of them to spend the rest of your life....

    ReplyDelete
  39. Love until it hurts, and when it hurts, love some more. Love until you don't care about the pain, until you stop expecting anything in return, until all that matters is loving that person the best way you can...
