How Dos...Your Love Story End?


Have you ever truly ever loved someone so much that everymoment you spend with that person makes youfeel like you can conquer any obstacle in your path? The impossible just seems possible and it feels like you're in a constant dream that you refuse to wake up from. When you look into your lover's eyes you get lost in their inner beauty and that glow that seems to be like endless light. You feellike every moment apart seems like an eternity and there can never be enough time to satisfy all the times you missed seeing their face. You can't breath without them being inyour presence and you surely feel like you can't live without their love and affection. When you're together, everyone can see that you're in love and that nothing really matters except for your future together. Months go by and it seems that every challenge your relationship faces, doesn't stand a chance.
Your love grows to a point where you feel like this is the person you wouldlike to spend the rest of your life with. Suddenly, all of those memories and spectacular moments you shared together come crashing down all around you with 5 simple words; "I don't love you anymore!" "What went wrong?" you keep asking yourself."Was it me?" "Was my love ever good enough?" We did everything together, went to places you never been to before. Did things for each other that made everyone around us envious.Our love was a picture of a perfect romance and now I have to learn to acceptthe fact that its over.You move on with more questions for yourself. "What's wrong with me?" "What do I do now that they are gone from mylife?"
Loneliness starts to set in and you feel vulnerable to the point where you're willing to do anything to get that feeling of being whole again.You consider taking that person back, even though they broke your heart into a million pieces. With memories still fresh in your mind, you still feel so hurtthat no amount of crying will ever express how much love you have left to givethem. Some time passes and you seem to be searching for that missing part ofyour soul. You suddenly go through one relationship after another but it seems like nothing measures up. As more time passes by, you feel like you aredestined to live the rest of your life alone. You ask yourself again, "What part of myself am I missing?" "Why can't I move on?"You believed that you closed this chapter of your life even tried to start a new one.
Although you have someone new in your life, nothing seems to work. You start to wonder about "what should have been." But reality is a cold and cruel constant reminder. As the passage of time mounts, you start to notice that you forgot whom you were before that doomed relationship began. You start to rebuild and work tirelessly to get back your identity. Then the true test of your emotions begins. Are you willing to open your heart once againknowing that you can feel that pain all over again? Regardless of what you may think, the love you had received, even if it was for a short time, will always be a part of you.The negative emotions you experienced will fade away with time. The only way you can go seeking for love again is by letting go of all of those questions that will answer themselves in time.
The next step is to let all of those bad memories go. This includes all pain and anger you stored deep down in your heart. That's the only way to allow love to find you again. Once you've regained who you really are, you can also remember how to truly love again.With that in mind, here's how this story ends. You run into that person you once loved. As you stand face to face, you notice that something is different about them. The glow you once saw in their eyes seemed to no longer exist. The person you once loved before was not the same person standing bet it was their spirit you loved the most, which no longer resides within their heart. As you look deeper into their eyes, you begin to see that they no longer possess that part of you believed that was missing from your life.
What has changed? It turns out that the person you once loved made a life choice that can either enrich their life or lead them searching for what they once had withyou. Making poor choices can lose that spirit. For this story, the person choseto explore love with someone else and it didn't turn out the way they had experienced with you. Only one question does remain "Why do we always seemto choose to risk what we already have in our life for something so unsure?" In most cases, they have taken love for granted. They seem to besearching for something they believe is missing from their relationship insteadof exploring the depths of your love. Until you've explored that uncharted territory their love has to offer, you will never understand true meaning of love. There are so many situations like this one that will always change how you feel about love. One thing does remain the same; you will always take that chance time and time again for that ultimate prize, "UnconditionalLove!"
If you are wondering if this story is about me, it isn't. It's about life and the choices we make for ourselves. You choose to love again, you choose to create or destroy love. You choose to pick yourself up or allow yourself to fall into that void of loneliness. How doesyour love story end? You make the choice!......
