SOMETHING ABOUT LOVE...

The loves! Who missed me? Who did I miss? Happy New Year y'all. It's been like forever and I've been away due to competing demands.

Here's something to start the year with and I hope you enjoy reading it.

Some people will be surprised at why I chose this...

I'm not an expert here, but I'm human enough to feel it, & then to say it. I'm not so experienced here, but I'm experienced enough to share this "something about love."

Love is such that every  person is free to fire it at any other person he/she pleases.

Here's the drama: "A" fires it at "B." And given that "B" is as free as "A" to fire in any direction, "B" fires it at "C" - not "A". What do we observe? "A" gets nothing from his/her object of love, because "B" is busy loving "C." And guess what? While "A" is busy trying to get at "B", who is trying to get at "C", a certain "D" is firing at "B-busy-A" from his/her end. For me, this is the comedy of love.

Are you complaining that the one you're firing all your love at doesn't even care if you exist or not? You probably now know why? He/she just happens to be firing in another direction; he/she loves another. Being loved back is not automatic, else we would all be madly in love with Jesus who loved us so much & died for us - but we all not are. It's just too rare to find too people fire love at each other simultaneously from the word go.

There's one hope we all work with in this comedy of love, the fact that we're all free, too, to reconsider the direction of our firing & then re-fire. If you hold on long enough, then the one you're firing at may notice you, consider you, reconsider his/her current direction, & now decide to fire at you. You win!

However, & finally, I like to be very realistic. Since some will not just work, don't wait for too long if it ain't working. Two things to do: look around to find the one firing at you & fire back, or just start the game all over.

Have you wondered why we say "love makes the world go round"? This is one of the reasons.

Enjoy your weekend!
