Love, Life, and That Whole Thing |

So, unfortunately I fell into the internet trap hole better known as MySpace (actually, I was pushed in it), and have about five friends on there. One of them, whose name won't be shared, sent out a bulletin (just in case there are those sacred few who have no idea what I'm talking about, a bulletin goes out to everyone on your friends list and is post on their home page. It'a kinda like a email, but to everyone, and the reader as a choice to responding directly to you or the the bulletin itself) that talked about the pain of love. His writing was so crazy, I had to respond to it. Now, I usually don't have an ego, but I believe that what I wrote him was well-written, made a lot of excellent points, and should be shared. And so, here it is:
Ok...[NAME] honey, are you all right? That love bullentin, with as much respect as I can muster, sounded crazy! How are you going to talk about the pain of love, then to a murder/suicide of a man, woman, and baby? I don't even know what point you were trying to make as it was lost on me, and possibly your other friends. Truly, I think this letter is about the hurt you felt from the relationship you mentioned and possibly rejection from other girls you might have wanted to date. I said possible because I don't really know. This pain you're going through is what made this letter so unreadable and unbelievable. Also, know this, love is nothing to throw around. Just because you're with someone, doesn't mean you have to fall in love with that person. People are put in our lives to teach us about themselves, the world, and ourselves in turn. You may like that person, that person may disappear in a few months, but not everyone is someone you must love. By that, I don't mean the Christian "love everyone as if they were yourself" love, but that real, intimate no-holding-back love. Plus, love is not all about pain. Pain might be involved, but it's a different type of pain: the pain of being away from that person because you want nothing better than to be beside him/her; the pain to give your all to that person because it makes you happy to make your lover happy, even if it means hurting you; the pain you feel when you see your lover doing the exact same for you, not because it's for you, but because it's causing him/her pain (I hope you understood that); the pain and guilt you feel when you cause him/her pain. Those are the pains you get from love. If your love is unrequited(?), then maybe you should reevaluate what it is to be in love and if you truly are in love. Yes, it could be YOUR fault the other isn't feeling the same way. It won't be all the time, however, but stepping back and figuring out how and why is a lot better than wallowing around in sorrow over something that won't happen. To wrap up, love is not all about pain. It is work, though, and must not be taken lightly. Always look into yourself first before finding another person, because you shouldn't go out to find someone to "complete" you. Love is the only thing that defies mathematics. Because, in love, 1 whole person + 1 whole person = 1 whole. And, if that love blossoms, 1+1=3. Think about that one...
