“We think that forgiveness is weakness, but it’s absolutely not; it takes a very strong person to forgive.”

— T.D. Jakes

“The most basic premise for giving love is knowing the person one loves. Before there can be any real love, one must find out what the other person is like. One has to become aware, conscious of that person’s true being, in order to love that very person and not some image of one’s own that one projects upon the other. It is altogether too easy to believe that I really love someone when all I am doing is enjoying my own ideal of what I would like that person to be. And probably the surest way of finding out the difference is by listening to the other person, allowing oneself to be open and sensitive to that person’s real reactions.”

— Morton T. Kelsey, from “The Creative Power of Love,” in The Other Side of Silence: A Guide to Christian Meditation (Paulist Press, 1976)

“love languages are constantly changing and new ones are simultaneously being born. you’re always evolving, so the way you were loved yesterday may not be the way you need to be loved today, but find no shame in that, find no guilt in wanting to be met where your growth is now.”

“to live in your truth so much that the scent of authenticity follows you wherever you go, to live in your truth so much that the energy you leave behind leaves no room for assumption, to live in your truth so much that you bulletproof yourself from their opinions and projections.”

It’s been awhile huh.

Collections of emotions and thoughts that weave through in between one another. Reaching to conclusion is like a task that seems so endearing. For what it’s meant to be seems questionable as could this what fate deems it to be. Is destiny truly decided or will there be adjustments as life progresses.

Am i where I’m supposed to be due to decisions made by higher being or its through the path that i have carved.

For i’ve once again reached the intersection of life, to where next is the questions. It seems close to impossible to choose which path next shall i embrace.

Uncertainty seems to have the grasp the thoughts that runs rampant in my mind. Too many have said “listen to your heart, it knows best” but it crosses my mind, does the heart have seen the future. If i were to leave the heart to lead the path, will my heart be capable to endure such regrets and pain that may accompany. Thus, will logic be the optimal choice or does the heart conquer everything?

As time goes on, you'll understand. What lasts, lasts; what doesn't, doesn't. Time solves most things. And what time can't solve, you have to solve yourself.

“Today I forgive myself. Not just once. Again, and again, and again. As many times as it takes to find peace.”
