why do we get broken hearts? why do we long for love if love has failed us to feel the completeness and happiness that we have hoped for?
maybe it is because there is a glimpse of hope that someday, somewhere we will be able to get hold of it.
I’ve recently read a bulletin post of one of my friends in friendster. i got sad to know that she’s not having a good relationship with the father of her child.
then i heard the news that one of my friends will be married next year. yes, it is already planned.
i noticed a couple on the street who’s shouting at each other and on the other side is a group of persons laughing out loud.
different events. different relationships. different persons. but we all need affection. we all need love. we all need companionship. we all need our friends. we all need to belong. we need someone. we need the others.we need all of it because it defines our lives.
I personally do not want to have an empty life. a life that just go by the habit. wake up-eat-study-work-sleep. What a boring life i will have without friends, lover, family, and the other persons around me that bring joy to my life.
but heart aches do come. and so is struggle and pain. what matter most is that we have companions that will help us along the way. simple persons in our lives that touches our hearts and souls are necessary to have a wonderful life. we must, in return, be a blessing to others.
let your love be known. reach out. go out. make friends. connect to other persons. live your life in a way that you will have the least regrets to say when you’re already at your death bed.
