definition

May 13, 2009

late night one day, i’ve realized something..
and i’m happy now i can define it,
this thing called love.

for me,
love is not to own,
neither to possess
rather,
to love is to give the best
to pray for his/her best
even if it might mean to not always be with us,
because fate has set it, destiny has written it,
we humans can’t change it.

if we really understand love,
it wont be a problem to let go..
we love them and want them to be their best..
even if that means away from us..
if we persist, we’re just gonna burden them..
may even irritate them..
intervening with fate,
that has already been written.

we humans don’t know much..
can we see beyond the horizon?
beyond the present?
trust me, everything changes,
we dont know the future
nothing stays the same..

don’t be stubborn,

don’t be persistent,

let it flow..

dissapointing?

no.
unless you don’t understand love…
