LOVE
Do you know that the best time to know yourself is when you are in
love? You discover feelings you never knew you had: the heights of
jealousy, passion, anger, and affection.
It’s up to you to be master or slave to them. Committing into a relationship entails a lot of hard work to keep it because love is an act of the will, to live for
another, to give oneself to meet the needs of another.
Opening up your heart means making room for love, patience, understanding, and sacrifice.
Loving a person is like holding sand in your hand. Held loosely,
with an open hand, the sand remains where it is.
The minute you close your hand and squeeze tightly to hold on,
the sand trickles through your fingers. You may hold on to some
of it, but most will be spilled.
Loving a person is like that. Held loosely, with respect and freedom
for the other person, it is likely to remain intact. But hold too
tightly, too possessively, and the relationship slips away and is
lost. You never lose by loving. You always lose by holding back.
Destiny is not a matter of chance; it is a matter of choice. It is not
a something to be waited for; it is something to be achieved.
