Patience is indeed a virtue...

They say love comes in mysterious ways. Sometimes it happens without us knowing. Sometimes it’s a product of silly conversation. It’s a sudden emotion which fluctuates easily and hits you deeply.

When you fall in love with someone, we tend to forget who we really are and what we really are. Love is not a one sided emotion. Love should always be mutual. You don’t demand love to come to you, instead, it should be wholeheartedly be given back to you.

Finding the right person ain’t easy. It takes time, effort, and even courage for it to show. It could just be there right in front of you but may end up bizarrely when taken out of context.

We say love makes us happy. It creates an ecstatic feeling where we enter a fantasy. A dream like state of mind and forget the lucidity of the situation. In short, it makes us insane and fragile. Fragile and susceptible of being hurt and be fooled. It covers and alleviate our pains and sufferings for a short period of time. Another mechanism that allows us to escape from reality.

Love is a give and take relationship. We may not receive what we gave instantly but who knows, it only takes tad bit more time. You don’t rush someone to love you back. You teach them why they should feel the same way you do. You give them time to contemplate on why they should also do the same to you. The question you should ask now is not why, but how?

The answer is simple, you give time. You give time allow them to know you more. You give time for them to explore who you really are and if your intention is sincere and true. A relationship cultivated by time and effort is like a tall sturdy building where it’s hard to be penetrated by outside world’s negativity and can’t easily climbed by an opportunistic lunatic.

Invest in time and not just pure emotion so you can harvest a meaningful, fruitful, and infinite two sided relationship where you can both benefit from a more positive inspiration.
