We are desperate for love. We’re crazy after it and when we meet someone who is able to fill this void we tend to forget for a while about our principles and the things that define us. The need for love is so powerfully built in our matrix, that many of us are incapable of controlling it. And so we move from one boyfriend/girlfriend to another, thinking that the next one is ‘the one’.
Some of us realize what’s going on and boast to have found a solution to fool the system: relationships they don’t get emotionally involved. To totally giving up to the so called ‘steady relationships’ is only a small step. The next evolutionary step is defined by the ‘just for fun’ kind of people; for them pleasure is the only God that governs their existence and they adopt a lifestyle without ethics or morals (that because it guarantees their freedom to unlimited pleasure).
I come back to the mechanism of the desire for love. And we will discover how we fool ourselves over and over again. We can also learn how to avoid the above mentioned sorry full description. The mistake we make is to take love for feeling. This unmistakably creates great confusion in our mind. Feeling such as: attraction, admiration, friendship, even weakness, can generate something that can be taken for love. Inevitably we make the choices that lead us astray.
Love is actually action, concrete facts, decision without the possibility for revocation, the commitment in each morning to help, encourage, sometimes warn the person we love. The courage of saying I love you is even bigger than that of saying yes when we get married. This is because true love is not defined by how many times you say you love me honey-bunny, or by how many times you say you are sorry for repeating the same mistake or how many times you buy something nice.
I am the one who decide to love you, and it is a solemn promise to respect you, to sacrifice myself for you without thinking twice, to be there when you are nasty, selfish, angry, depressed, sick, or distant. Because that is of the essence when time are bad. Because difficult moments will come…it is only a matter of time!!!
There is no perfect person for us in this world!! We may search far and wide, but for no avail. And the quicker we accept this the more we gain and avoid even more useless suffering.
There are people that think of love as I’ve written it, but do we see them? And if we see them, would we accept them? …or would we consider them unconscious, naive, inexperienced children. I’ve just presented how we can build and maintain a happy relationship! Would you say yes to it? Cause I don’t know how I would answer anymore…
