When I woke up this morning, another summer-nothing to do-boring-day, so I decided to finally abide by my sister and clean up my messesss..(super plural form). Part of the cleaning was to arrange my clothes which can be found everywhere in the house and to dump old clothes. While trying to sort my clothes, I decided to clean my brother’s drawer. Kuya is in Australia for more than a year already, that’s why no one uses the drawer and of course, it’s messy and even though he’s here naman, I think it would still be messy, of course, boys will be boys. While I was trying to organize it, I found stuffs like office papers, old pictures, other stuffs, and cards..as in love letters. I found a picture of his ex-girlfriend with a very heart warming dedication at the back. My kuya and his ex were together for a long time, I’m not sure exactly how long but they were together for years. Then they suddenly fell apart, I don’t know the reason why because I was just 11 or 12 years old back then.
Anyway, so I found this pile of cards inside a plastic. And out of curiosity I read them..yes, so pakilamera. I picked out the first card and opened it. While I was reading the card, I just felt tears falling from my eyes. I do not know the reason for why those tears fell, but maybe those words were strong enough to hit my heart and touch me. Then I took another card and continued reading until the last one. Those words defined pure and true love. It was like they planned their entire life together. Whilst reading those cards, I can feel their love, love that is ready to face the odds, no matter what. And as I close the last card, I wondered what happened. What thing is so strong enough to drift two people who are truly in love apart?
And then I realized, just like what I always say, love is not enough.
Really. I had this ex, I love him, he loves me, but we can’t be together.
Surely, love is not enough.
And now, after about 8 years, what I know is the girl is married and my kuya naman has a girlfriend for 5 or 6 years already.
Now, how can you say that your present love is your true love?
How can you say that you will not love that way again?
When you feel that you love this certain person, how are you so sure that this love is your greatest love?
What if your partner tells you that he/she will love you forever and that he/she will never love another person the way he/she loved you, would you believe him/her? Or would you be able to tell your partner that you will never be able to love another person the way you loved him/her? And when you do, how are you so sure?
No one knows what will happen. Nobody knows if lovers will stay together forever. Nobody knows if until when you will feel a certain love for someone. Yes, we do not know which our greatest love is, but, when we feel love for someone, let’s just cherish it. We may not know if until when we will be able to feel this love, it may fade, it may vanish, but at least at a certain point in your life, you know that you were able to love. When you love, give true love, it may not last forever but at least you know for yourself that you were able to love truly.
Life is not a fairytale, not every love ends in happy ending, always bear that in mind. But it’s not bad to make sure that during the story, you were not the antagonist because you were able to give your love truly. And incase it didn’t work, just be glad you gave it your shot.
*tired of typing. that’s all. LOL. Did I really say those things? Whatever. Easy to say, hard to do.
*Btw, I have one sack of clothes to dump and I’m still not yet done with my cleaning. ;)
