Good Read to start your day
Sometimes, in our relentless efforts to find the
person we love we fail to recognize and
appreciate
the people who love us. We miss out on so many
beautiful things and simply because we allow
ourselves to be enslaved by our own selfish
concerns. Go for the man of deeds and not for the
man of words for you will find rewarding happiness
not with the man you love but the man who loves
you more.
The best lovers are those capable of loving from a
distance far enough to allow the person to grow,
but never too far to feel the love deep within
your being.
TO LET GO OF SOMEONE DOESN’T MEAN
YOU HAVE TO STOP
LOVING, IT ONLY MEANS THAT YOU ALLOW
THAT PERSON
TO FIND HIS OWN HAPPINESS WITHOUT
EXPECTING HIM
TO COME BACK. Letting go is not just setting the
other person free, but it is also setting yourself
free from all bitterness, hatred, and anger that
keep in your heart. Do not let the bitterness
scare away your strength and weaken your faith,
and never allow pain to dishearten you, but rather
let yourself grow with wisdom in bearing it. You
may find peace in just loving someone from a
distance not expecting anything in return. But be
careful, for this can sustain life but can never
give enough room for us to grow.
We can all survive with just beautiful memories of
the past but real peace and happiness come only
with open acceptance of what reality is today.
There comes a time in our lives when we chance
upon someone so nice and beautiful and we just
find ourselves getting so intensely attracted to
that person.
This feeling soon become a part of our everyday
lives and eventually consumes our thoughts and
actions. The sad part of it is when we begin to
realize that this person feels nothing more for us
than just a friendship.
We start our desperate attempt to get noticed and
be closer but in the end our efforts are still
unrewarded and we end up being sorry for
ourselves.
You don’t have to forget someone you love. What
you need to learn is how to accept the verdict of
reality without being bitter or sorry for
yourself.
Believe me, you would be better off giving that
dedication and love to someone more deserving.
Don’t let your heart run your life, be sensible
and let your mind speak for itself. Listen not
only to your feelings but to reason as well.
Always remember that if you lose someone today,
it
means that someone better is coming tomorrow: If
you lose love that doesn’t mean that you failed in
love. Cry if you have to, but make it sure
that the tears wash away the hurt and the
bitterness that the past has left with you.
Let go of yesterday and love will find its way
back to you. And when it does, pray that it may be
the love that will stay and last a lifetime.
There are two ways to live your life. One is as
though nothing is a miracle. The other is though
everything is a miracle.
Love is like waiting for a bus. When the bus
comes, you look at
it and you say to yourself
"eeee…so full….cannot sit down, I’ll wait for the
next one."
So you let the bus go and waited for the second
bus. Then the
second bus came, you looked at it you said,
"eeee…this bus is so old…so shabby!"
So you let the bus go and again, decided to wait
for the next bus.
After a while another bus came, it’s not crowded,
not old but you said,
"eeee…not air conditioned …better wait for the
next one."
So again you let the bus go and decided to wait
for the next bus.
Then the sky started to get dark as it was getting
late. You panicked
and jumped immediately inside the next bus. It is
not until much
later that you found out that you had boarded the
wrong bus!
And you wasted your time and money just to get
into the wrong one!
Even if an air conditioned bus comes, you can’t
ensure that the air
conditioned
bus won’t break down or whether or not the
airconditioner will be too cold
for you.
Wanting to get what you want is not wrong. But it
wouldn’t hurt to
give other people a chance. If you find that
the "bus" doesn’t suit
you just press the red button and get off the bus!
Hey, who said life
is fair???
The best thing to do is be observant and open-
minded. If
it doesn’t suit you, get off.
I’m sure you’ve had this experience before. You
saw a bus coming (the
bus you want of course). You flagged it but the
driver acted as
if he did not see you and zoomed pass you! It just
wasn’t meant for
you!
The bottom line is, being loved is like waiting for a
bus you want.
Getting on the bus and appreciating the bus by
giving it a chance
depends totally on you. If you haven’t made any
choice, WALK!
Walking is like being single. The good side of it is
you can
still choose any bus you want…the rest who
couldn’t afford another
ride would just have to be content with the bus
they rode on, ugly
or not.
Also, sometimes it is better to choose a bus you
are already
familiar with rather than to gamble with a bus that
is unfamiliar to
you. But then again, life wouldn’t be complete
without the risks
involved.
But there is one bus that I failed to tell you about.-
the Bus you do
not have to wait for, the Bus that will stop on its
own and ask
you if you wish to come inside, then take you for a
joy ride for
the rest of your life.
Hope you get to ride on that bus! 
God said: "Build a better world." I said:"How?
The world is such a complicated, cold, dark place
and there is
nothing I can do."
But God
said: "Just build a better you."
