At any one point in our lives, we're either married, engaged, single, heartbroken, or searching. That's why I'd like to share with you today, an email I received from a friend, which offers some poignant advice for those of us who fall into those categories.
To those of us who are MARRIED…
Love is not about "it's your fault", but "I'm sorry",not "where are you' but "I'm right here",not "how could you" but "I understand",not "I wish you were", but "I'm thankful you are."
To those of us who are ENGAGED…
The true measure of compatibility is not the years spent together but how good you are for each other.
To those of us who are NOT SO SINGLE…
Love isn't about becoming somebody else's "perfect person." It's about finding someone who helps you become the best person you can be.
To those of us who are HEARTBROKEN…
Heartbreaks last as long as you want and cut as deep as you allow them to go. The challenge is not how to survive heartbreaks but to learn from them.
To those of us who are SEARCHING…
True love cannot be found where it does not truly exist, nor can it be hidden where it truly does. Love is magic. The more we hide it, the more it shows. The more you suppress it, the more it grows.
To those of us who are FOOLING AROUND…
Never say I love if you don't care. Never talk about feelings if they aren't there. Never touch a life if you mean to break a heart. Never look in the eye when what you do is lie. The cruelest thing a person can do to another, is to let them fall in love when they don't intend to catch their fall.
To those of us who are POSSESSIVE…
It breaks your heart to see the one you love happy with someone else but it's more painful to know that the one you love is unhappy with you.
To those of us who are SINGLE…
Love is like a butterfly. The more you chase it, the more it eludes you. But if you just let it fly, it would come to you when you least expect it. Love can make you happy but often times it hurts, but love's only special when you give it to someone who is worth it.
And there you go, all you need to survive this mysterious, sometimes bewildering, sometimes painful, but often fulfilling thing called LOVE.
