The Man You Love Or The Man Who Loves You?

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 rare you away
your strength and weaken your faith, and never
allow pain to dishearten you, but rather let you
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.
