My recent best
friend just told me that love is not logical and its one of those things that
are really hard to understand. This was somehow confusing coz am one of those
people who wants to pin logic in everything around me. Now I have a very
different few about this word or feeling or this thing we call love. Looking at
it from a different perspective has given me the courage to come with terms
that love and logics are immiscible. The dictionary has defined love in very
few words which really does not bring out the point that I want to bring out
now. The dictionary says love is a feeling and strong affection towards
something, now that is very logical but just like my best friend said love is
never logical.
The bible says
that for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son just that we
will be saved. It goes ahead and says that he endured pain so that we can have
a life through that, now tell me where is the logic behind that deed. Looking
at love from the biblical perspective now makes me realize that love is more than some feeling
or affection or something we want to call it. When you love someone then you
love them with your all, just like God gave himself for us to experience
freedom. Now guys freedom is the word here, freedom is when you are allowed to
make choices that govern your life and when freedom lacks in the love
relationships then that’s not true love. It’s been said over and over again if
you love somebody then you will let them be what they want to be.
The most hard
thing for a lot of relationship is the break
up part, people have taken their lives, others have decided to drink to
death, people have changed their sexual orientation and others have even
quitted their dreams and goals in life, am not saying that all this is silly or
immature but I just think we break up wrongly that is why we go ahead and do
all these things. Imagine somebody has been part of your life, has been your
friend, consolation and has always wanted the best for you and then they are
gone, life becomes dark but that’s not the end of life. When you play the
scales of the guitar, the last note always marks the beginning of a new one; it
sounds different but still fits to the music, that is the course break ups
should take.
I have always
said that your past should not drag you behind but should be a stepping stone
for the future and this is the beginning for us to come to terms with reality,
I know you will say he or she is your life and without them you will die, but
if you love them then it means you love ‘you’ and you should love them just as
much as you love yourself and if you want the best for them then you should
also seeks for the best for you, I know this is not logical, but I told you
love is not logical.
I have never
understood how you love so much then start hating the next moment, the
bitterness that we allow to grow in our hearts is the source of all the
unpleasant outcome s of break ups. People can still be friends and really good
friends, but it takes a mature mind to come to that reality. Loving someone is to want the best for them,
and since its only God who can give that to them then, ours is just to accept
the different forms of fate and destiny pray to God and be happy for them. When
you love someone then let them be happy and always pray for their happiness
even if you not part of it and if you love somebody then you becomes their
friends and be there for them whenever they need you.
I have just told
you about my recent best friend who once wrote me these words and I quote;’ if
one dream should fall and break into 1000 pieces never be afraid to pick one of
them and begin again. I really love this friend of mine for the wisdom, passion
and love that I have gotten. This friend is the best friend ever and the
noblest person I have ever met and the words I have learned from my best
friends are framed in my heart. Let’s go back to the drawing board and think
again, let’s not pin logic to love and lets love the way God loves, with no
selfishness or bitterness and always watching our back, always being the friend
we need and the best lover of all, God loves us even when we don’t want to be
with him and this is true love, always dreaming for the best and always wanting
the best for them.
Relationships
are two way traffic and both parties have to give their part, but love is one
way traffic and that means loving without expecting to be loved. Let’s love
like God, let’s stop expecting to be loved, demanding for love, trading for
love, gaming for love, let’s just simply love, let’s give ourselves today and
do it tomorrow again and let’s give the clock itself to wear thin its time, and
till we do that we will never understand the gravity that pulls us to the ones
we love.
Wake up lets
journey on.
