relationships
one can nvr fathom the workings of a relationship... wen @ it's peak, we say it's the honeymoon period... dat cupid is with us... but wen it is @ its lowest , it is super low.
bonded with a colleague of mine who brought me to dwell on this.. (read his rather-depressing blog)
wen u have been in a relationship that was so wondrous, that it makes the world just fall into place and suddenly it went kaput... that is a torture. well, i shld noe.
but like eunice kindly braved me up with her kind words (God gave you heartbreak so that you know that you are capable of loving someone... and whilst that love went unappreciated, know that it wasn't your loss, for you still have some more love to give...) that kept me going.
teri hatcher said on the oprah show that her love life is completely upside down... i can so relate to her... but mine has found its balance now, but i tell you, it wasn't so a yr before.
briefly dated a guy totally beyond me (boy! what was i thinking then)... so against all odds. but anyway, it ended quite swiftly.
went out with another, who is by far, the cutest guy i've ever dated... with his idiosyncracies that cracked me up always, and the little things we share, that only we noe... closer
and paulo coelho anyway, that ended quite mysteriously... but we both realised that while the relationship has faded, the frenship remains. he is one of those i trust now... although everyone else says not to. consider me a fool, but i go by instinct. but he is cute. by my definition (or at least vic agrees with me). it's just too bad.
so anyway, while we go through our lives, we realise we cannot be pals with loneliness, hence all the rebound relationships and sex... although temporary, they give us few minutes/hours/days of companionship.
but then, despite all that, we find ourselves caught up in our own time, usually in the middle of the night, alone in bed, thinking of that one person... and the possible what-ifs...
i did my share of thinking... of heartbreaking thots... if the past is anything to go by, i never want to do the what-if thinking anymore... for it only brings tears.
will this current one end in bliss? well, i hope so *cross fingers*... but even if it did not,@ least this time round, i've got someone who thinks i am the world. and for that, i am blessed. loving someone and having that person love u more.. that is priceless.
Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.Love never ends; as for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. For our knowledge is imperfect and our prophecy is imperfect; but when the perfect comes, the imperfect will pass away. When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; when I became a man, I gave up childish ways. For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall understand fully, even as I have been fully understood. So faith, hope, love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
1 Corinthians 13
