Up to where should I go for love?
Up to where should I go for love?
Should I climb the highest mountain for people to love me? Or should I just lean on the greenest grass for me to love myself?
Do I need to swim the deepest ocean for people to praise me? Or just let God’s wind drift me to where I should be?
Do I have to strive hard to find love or just let love to find me?
Questions, questions why still unanswered?
Oh! Why are people so “people”? They see others but don’t see themselves. Sad. But, true.
I often say this to myself, “I am who I am and been thankful for that. So, why do people expect me to be something else?”
- the chirping of the birds, they give me hope
- the stars, they give me inspiration to see what lies ahead
- the sunrise, for new chances
- the sunset, for forgiveness
- the blue sky, for serenity
- the calm sea, for peace
- the smiles of strangers, for goodness
- For EVERY THING. They give me life. And;
- For GOD, who is always giving me strength and endurance and is picking me up every time I break down.
I’ve been through a lot of pain and people do always drag me down. Others praise, others criticize. I get flattered when someone praises me but sometimes when I hear criticism, I feel so down, hurt and depressed. At present, I elevated from being hurt so much. I am working on it, maybe a little but not so much as before. All I remember is that line from the bible, “You cannot serve two masters at a time” and “Live in love”. And the line that “You should be thankful for all the hardships and pain, that means God loves you”.
I can say that I have loved. So much that it hurts even more when that love pains me. Aside from all the pain and disappointments, still there is a whispering hope in my heart to go on whatever may lie ahead. Love taught me how to fight for what is right, to be brave, to stand up when feeling down, to let go of things that gives pain, to move on with life with brand new chances and to hold on with the last flicker of hope as traversing the journey of life.
No matter what life may give me, no matter how many stones people throw at me, no matter how much pain I will be having, still I got one choice. I choose to love. I was, I will and will always be.
Up to where should I go for love? I don’t know. All I know is that I will go up to wherever love will bring me.
