POWER OF A HUMAN.
With time, I have realised this harsh truth of life that gives me gut-wrenching ache; the power that a human holds in another human’s life.
The access of ourselves that we often give to people when in love, in the hope that they might protect it as if it was there own. Only to know it wasn’t there’s. It was ours. It will always be ours. So, no matter how many times you try giving that access to someone else, you will fail yourself. Our access to ourselves, should be only and only ours.
It is very important for each one of us to remember that we are individuals. The people, will walk with us… some for a little longer than others. Everyone has their own paths, some might accompany us for a little while and a few for a longer period. Whatever it is, always remember that they are walking with you and not as long as you.
Love shall not mean to end your individuality. Love shall never complete any spaces that are unfilled in your life. Love shall not mean to endure any unkindness in the name of love or tolerate any viciousness in the name of loyalty.
As, love is euphoric and gentle. It is dulcifying for a character, it is intensifying for your growth, and in resentment it is placating. Whoever told you otherwise, is mistaken by this society. For love one shall fight, but not with the person you’re fighting for.
Here’s a reminder: No matter what your relationship is with the person, if you fill the voids of life with some living beings, they might leave or should I say, they will leave(in some way) or they may outgrow you or replace you with someone or something…a person can make you feel void just by their absence…because this is the power that you give someone with your love. And then, you’re left with that empty space of yours, figuring out what to do with it, when suddenly all of it flushes out of your life.
How to deal with it? Face it! And then start again. This time walk your path alone. Love people but do not forget to love yourself. Value people but prioritize yourself. Praise the people who are walking with you but also remember, they are walking with you, not as long as you.
