My Thoughts: Response to "Love Worth Finding"

These 2 lines struck me and are the basis of my response to "Love Worth Finding". I don't have a title for this yet... Just scribbling down my thoughts... Just thinking out loud...






"IN ORDER TO FIND LOVE MY DARLING, WE MUST PART.

IF DESTINY PERMITS, WE WILL MEET AGAIN"






Why, in heaven’s name, do two people drift apart in the first place, if they are meant to meet again in the future?

Maybe it's meant that way...

Time and distance has something to do with it...

It plays a factor in molding us into what we need to be...

Life is a process.

We need to be with other people in order to find ourselves...

And when we finally find ourselves, only then will we realize who and what we value.

Then destiny brings us together again, same yet different people than what we used to be, for love to work better, maybe.

True love is worth finding... fighting... resolving...waiting... and going back to again.

Sadly though, true love is such a rarity...

And sometimes, discerning love from true love can be tricky...

Perhaps, that's why we need to part ways...

To go through the process of finding, fighting, resolving, waiting and going back to...

again.

My Thoughts: Hands-On Parenting

I take my hat off to parents who go the extra mile in maintaining physical proximity with their children. Activities like getting involved in school events; helping children get assignments done; or a simple lending of an ear establish an emotional and physical bond between parents and children which strengthens their closeness and intimacy. Psychologists reveal that love and attention in the family breed healthy emotional development of a child. Institutions like schools and other organizations are only there to reinforce the parents in the performance of their responsibilities. Parental love, acceptance and responsiveness still play a major role in molding future citizens.

The degree of intervention and guidance needed from parents may vary during a life span but it certainly does not cease at any given time. Parenting is a lifetime career,and conception is only the start of a nurturing and nourishing relationship.

Someone At the End of My Journey

If only I own my life...

Then I could be with you always.

But I have a destiny to fulfill,

A destiny I'm bound to from birth,

A destiny I fought to be free from- but failed.

If a day shall come that you should go

And find someone who could make you glow,

Who could be with you in a way I could not at the moment...

Then, it's something that I will have to accept...

Though painfully...

As part of my destiny.


When I shall be free,

I still don’t know.

I'm still hoping though,

That you could still be with me,

That you could still stay by me,

By the end of my journey...


Till the end of my journey...

My Thoughts: Love, Prayer and Forgiveness

Forgiveness gives us a sense of closure and inner peace. I was wrong before in thinking that forgiving is tantamount to approving someone's misdeeds or condoning his misconduct. Forgiveness does not mean that we have to remain subject of an abusive behavior. In fact, we do not necessarily have to spend time with the person we are forgiving. I think it's easier to forgive if we distance ourselves from the other person.

Forgiving may not come easy especially when the hurt is deep-seated or devastatingly severe. Praying for the possibility of forgiving and for God's love to touch the heart of the wrongdoer is always the best way to start. At one point or another, we, too, may inadvertently hurt someone and would need to ask for forgiveness.

We are but products of our life experiences. Unpleasant and unfair actions by others as well as past events can affect our current thoughts and feelings. But, we can take control of our lives and make a decision. We can choose to remain bitter or become better. When we genuinely forgive others for their wrongs towards us, we are actually setting ourselves free from the ugly and unproductive feelings that block the blessings God has in store for us.

We must take the first step on the pathway leading us outside our dark alley of griefs.

Live, love, pray, forgive, move on, and be happy.

My Thoughts: Body Image and Sexual Confidence

Fashion and beauty industries dictate what the ideal bodies and faces should be- and media bombards us with those images; mostly overrating physical appearance and underrating character.

Sadly, media has the power to permeate our society and perpetuate these ideas of sexual desirability. Magazines laud the voluptuous features of one celebrity while jeering the anexoric frame of another; advertisements equate excess weight to sexual unattractiveness; and movies, TV and the internet present graphic depictions of the erotic nature of the human body.

Conforming to these seemingly unattainable expectations only undermines our self-worth and induces feelings of inadequacy in us. Professional counselors offer help by showing us how developing a positive image and self-acceptance can inoculate us against these effects. It's all about counting our blessings, and feeling good about ourselves and our God-given lives.

We should keep in mind that everybody is unique and 'beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder'.

My Thoughts: On Taking Advice

I believe everything falls into its proper place and time… we cannot force things to happen. At a certain point, we may regret not to have done something at a particular moment, but when we look back later, we realize that either we, or the moment wasn’t ripe yet for a particular course of action.

I think, sometimes, we just can’t follow advice blindly, for us to see clearly the fruits of the decision we made and value the advice given. Our actions have to be a natural outcome of doing our own inner work; the decision should come willingly from within us– and that takes time. Our ripeness or maturity to do a crucial task takes time. Fortunately though, the moment spent on inner searching or deliberation is never wasted because it is during this period that we gain maturity & wisdom.

We will make mistakes– we are bound to make mistakes as we go along. I guess there isn’t a foolproof method on how to deal with life. The good thing is: more often than not, we learn more from our failures than we do from our successes and any day is never too late to start anew.

Everything happens for a reason– no regrets, only lessons to cherish.
