How Love Hurts

How Love Hurts

mailSo many times singers sing sad songs spilling their broken hearts out, but they still wish for a passionate taste of love. Love destroys one’s sanity and brings so many complexities but we all want it even though we fear it.

“It is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved” is one of the proverbs I live by. A positive way of looking at things but sometimes when it hurts so bad I can’t sleep I just damn love to hell.

When defined, love means passionate and tender devotion amongst other similar meanings. Sometimes we feel that; for all our passionate and tender devotions love sells us out, leaves us in the middle of no where.

True love can’t be forced but it can certainly be born. I firmly believe that nothing is impossible if you put your mind to it.

Love though sweet can also bring thorns to one’s life, inflict untold miseries upon lucky or rather unlucky soul and hurts you badly. Of course entering into a healthy relationship, one has got to be prepared to face those challenges and combat that negative side of love that interestingly is love.

Love is not about the good times, it’s about how you survive the bad times. Giving one’s self is not an easy thing and to find out for one second that our efforts are being spurned or rejected bring hurt feelings. For every time we needed a loved one most and they couldn’t or wouldn’t find the time to share with us, for every time they hurt us we must have a way of coming off the hurt feelings and take the positive ride once more. We must still persevere in the quest to not only attain love but to most importantly retain it because love is indeed a beautiful thing.

When it hurts so badly one might even curse love, it’s only natural that amidst one’s misery one is bound to forget about the good things and only focus on the hurts and disappointments that love puts on us.

A lesson I learnt after a particularly complex and difficult relationship is “Always think about the bad times and how you survived them”. Let that be a mountain-mover for you Dear Reader because what doesn’t kill you only makes you stronger.

Almost everybody has gone through love’s cycle and most have been left hopeless and broken. A word of advice: you are not alone but wallowing self-pity on yourself is not the answer and forming a Reject’s Club is just pathetically not a line of solution too. What about the rest of your life, the glories to attain, the honors to be bestowed upon you?

It’s really not easy but Dear Reader you have to deal with it. Giving up would be near suicidal. When it seems that the night is so dark and menacing, take comfort that the morning will come. Night must give way to dawn. When it hurts so badly that you can’t breathe, its okay to cry, its okay to rant but keep your head and know that there’s more to life than your emotional turmoil.

Then with your strength of will pull yourself together and plan rationally about the course of action. Be strong and don’t let mixed emotions rule you. Rather let your heart and instinct guide you. Instinctively one knows when one is fighting a loosing battle but in the case of love Dear Reader, every battle is worth it. The tears and pains are your toils but happiness and fulfillment will be your spoils. So be a brave soldier and don’t be scared to give it all you have because that is love.

 In return it will give you more than you could ever dream of-something so unique, something so tranquil and heavenly. Love never forgets a giver.
