“True Love”

“How can you say that love is true?” This is a question that should be answered by those people who are in love. Well, not really in love but those who experienced love. Everybody felt this feeling: being loved and to love. There are many examples of love: love for the family, love for god, love for your best friend, love for the country, love for the fellowmen and love for the opposite sex. But, what is true love and how can you say that the love you’re feeling is real?

True love for me is understanding and sacrificial. Understanding to the point that whatever happens to the relationship of yours (either you quarrel or something like that), you are ready to listen to the explanation of your partner and be ready to forgive if he/she does mistakes. Real love doesn’t long for power, it doesn’t want to hurt, doesn’t want to punish for mistakes; it’s self-sacrificing and ready to forgive over and over again. But it’s wrong to think that true love is always a suffering, it only means that you take a person as he or she is and don’t expect the one you love to be perfect. One trusts another more than him/herself and feels ready to satisfy every little need of a partner. True love signifies the word “sacrifice”. It is not selfish but it makes sure that all things are at good system and though it hurts their feelings, they will do the right thing to do.

It’s said that two persons truly in love aren’t looking at each other but in the one direction. And this is rather reasonable because they don’t say nothing “this is yours and this is mine” and share everything: friends, enemies, interests, problems and etc. One has his/her own identity but sees him/herself only as a part of the other. Still real love is not a relationship of property. If you really love someone you may say “I belong to you” but always be ready to let go if it makes the person you love happy. True love isn’t supposed to blow your mind, yet it doesn’t tend to get and to possess – it’s a very special state of a soul. True love is a good experience! You’ll learn a lot from it!

“Blessing or Disaster?”

Why sometimes our blessings seem a disaster for us? Well, the only reason for this is jealousy. People are not contented with what they have and what they are. They want more than what they possess and still crave for bigger blessings and opportunities to come. This result to the misfortunes and bad things that will happen to the blessed ones.

If a person is successful in life, having all the riches in the world, and live a better life than anyone else, then many people got jealous of him. They will plan to ruin the life of that successful person and they wanted to have those riches too. So, the blessings that were received were the cause of the misfortunes of the successful person. Many treats will be received and the blessings will cost his life.

We cannot avoid those people who are not contented and selfish. They will do anything to get the things they want that can harm the person who has it. So, for those blessed ones, learn to share you blessings so that those jealous people will be shy to do anything harmful for you. Don’t wait for your blessing to be a disaster.

“Pleasure from Misfortune”

Why do some people derive pleasure from the misfortune of others? The most appropriate answer is jealousy. Most bad things happen due to jealousy and all people possess this trait. Every individual felt that jealousy inside of them, especially when they think that someone is better than they are, more beautiful than they were, and all of the things that people considered as a competition. It is a hymen nature that even possessed by most of humans, it should be stopped, because it’s not a right to be jealous of someone. God created us differently and unique from one another, resulting to different abilities and skills acquired by every human being.

Being happy about one’s misfortune is a bad side of human behavior that should be controlled and changed as soon as possible. For example, Venus (Greek Mythology) is jealous of Psyche’s beauty, hence she made a plan to ruin Psyche. She commanded her son Cupid to make Psyche fall in love with the most worthless creature on Earth, with a man who is a loser, a total waster, a reject, an utter tosspot and complete scumbag, in short, the ugliest man in the entire world. But because her son fell in love when he saw Psyche, the plan was not pursued. Then, Psyche did not trust Cupid and leave her. That’s when Venus came to action.

She had her revenge by giving Psyche many trials to do. She is very happy to see Psyche suffering from each task that she’s giving to Psyche. But every challenge is having the help of Cupid. She always win and being able to do the challenge given to her by the Goddess of Love and Beauty because of jealousy. But still she was able to give Psyche misfortunes and was happy to punish the mortal that was said to be more beautiful than her.
