LOVE IN PAIN

Hey! Whatever happened to that burning fire within? You loved everyone that came your way; never issued the label "unlovable". In every situation, you came out of the troubles of life stronger and full of excitement, ensuing negative experiences as the spring board to greater happiness.

Suddenly, all of this didn't make any sense. I mean why go through all this pain trying to ensure your value of loving-kindness, when there won't be any appreciation or reciprocation. Finally, realizing that nobody is worth being loved except you. If it was a true value in your deepest part, causing smiles in other people's heart though not visible or recognized and you knew someday, just someday, your labour of love would surely be remembered, possibly in your darkest moments, would you have abandoned this timely virtue? I don't think so. Like the saying "love conquers all", it's quite simple, there is no circumstance you pass through that can't be overcome, if you sowed the seed of love in someone you supposedly thought wasn't worth it.

In your life story, probably you were facing physical or emotional challenges; the people you expected would pull you up, left you aloof to suffer all alone. Consequently, you became dispirited, felt abandoned, finally fell in the doldrums reaching emotional threshold. The pain kept increasing; you decided scrapping every other person off your agenda, planning on staying all by yourself. I tell you what; you'll end up in a state of loneliness and dire depression. Ultimately, the door of death opens up.

Do you believe that in this moving train of life, love makes all things easy? You see, even in pain the expression of love should never diminish but intimately dissipate. In cognizance, consider a woman in her prime, in all her beauty and splendour is abused physically and emotionally but, has only one thing at the back of her mind, "love is a non-negotiable principle; I must love." In this state of mind, she would never lack happiness and don't you think she would affect her oppressor in the near future? You bet. So, what's the whole essence of beating yourself up, when you could take up positive attitudes and actions that could work wonders and miracles? I call this "hedging against your future with your present nurture."

Finally, you've concluded that nothing in this world can change that guy, that lady. Have you tried the entire positive actions there is? Of course not. One of the great minds once said "Never accept the negative until you have thoroughly explored the positive." Do you think you're hurt? Have you tried loving in that pain? It takes a high level of maturity, you say. Positivism is never far fetched; the problem is the resolve to remain entangled in the trap.
