Writing Emotionally

From the Bible we are taught about Faith, Hope and Love but they were always explained differently than what we used to use them in our world...in our everyday lives. Like for example, in 1 Thessalonians 5:8 when Paul reminded the Thessalonians about the importance of “putting on the breastplate of faith and love , and as a helmet the hope of salvation ”.

Love saves lives but it can also take away one. So to those who wants to love and be loved in return, think again. It is not for the weakhearted. Depression is just one process that you must tackle when you get rejected or cheated. Remember that love may lift you up but it may also drop you down. Love may complete you, but it may also break you to pieces. So be strong at heart when you choose to fall in love and most importantly don’t forget to pick up yourself when you break down, get up when you fall, and don’t be afraid to Love again…wiser this time. Now, how to be wise in love? or in life? As a Proverb goes:

Love may be the most awesome experience in life yet it may took you by surprise in many things. Once upon a time I was younger, full of love and just starting to pull myself out of my shell. And yes, I found love and I was loved. The relationship was good but tight... too tight that it burns and bores me in time. We broke up and I moved on easily. I tried to pull myself out a little bit more and searched for another love...a different kind this time. And yes, I found someone but it wasn’t for love. It was for adventure...how is it like to be with someone like this -cool, confident, cocky with a bad boy image.

 When I woke up today, I don’t know how to describe my thoughts and feelings. Though it was only a dream, yet it pierced through my heart. I was happy that you visited me again in the world where you can only possibly be with me. But right after I came to my senses, it aches. My heart aches to face the truth that time has left us, opportunity has run out, and chances is zero. It could have been us but fate didn’t agree.

If you had asked me six months ago, as I teetered excitedly towards to end of pregnancy, what motherhood would be like, I would have flippantly listed the usual preconceptions of teething babies and endless nappy changing. But motherhood for me has turned out quite differently to how I imagined.

It’s the choices we make consciously or unconsciously! There are many things that causes us to break down. There are many unmet expectations, broken promises, unsuccessful relationships, disoriented goals and unanswered prayers that makes us feel miserable. But when we only look closer and deeper within our very soul, we realize that we are the one responsible of what we are feeling today, whether good or bad, happy or sad. It’s the choices we make consciously or unconsciously.

Nobody is perfect. We made mistakes! Some say life has no second chances. They said we are always moving forward and never backwards. We can never rewind what we had with the ones we loved. We cannot bring back the happy times and the memories we once shared with the people whom we lost. Well, I guess they are right and I am wrong… But for me a second chance doesn't mean we need to go back to our past and tweak it.

Here's a Relatable Poem about our Choices in Life . I walk down the street. There is a hole. I don't see it. I fall in. It isn't my fault. It takes a very long time to get out. I walk down the same street. There is still a deep hole. I pretend not to see it. I fall in. I pretend it's still not my fault. It takes a long time to get out. I walk down the same street. There is still the same deep hole. I see it. I fall in anyway. It's a habit. I get out quicker this time. I walk down the same street. There is a deep hole. I see it. I walk around it. I don't fall in. I walk down a different street. -- Portia Nelson

In the process of trying to take care of everything and everyone, we sometimes forget to take care of ourselves. We forget how good it feels to have somebody do all the work for once and have a relaxing care-free day by yourself. ...can't remember when was the last time I had "me" time... -Claire A.P "A strong woman can handle tough job and difficult times by herself, but a true man would not let her carry the loads."
