| Love? Confusing Paths of the Heart? |
How exactly does one fall in love. Is there something you must do? Or is that something the other must do? Does it just happen? Or do you have to make it happen?
There are so many questions but never any complete answers. Everybody has their own thoughts on what love is and where it comes from or how you know when you are in love.
There are also those that say that there is that one out there for everybody and you just have to find them. But wait maybe you don't have to really search – what if you find yourselves together without even leaving your desk? There is that chance that you could be talking to that 'one' everybody is talking about right now over the computer. Do you know how you met? Or have you yet to meet yet but you talk so much and share so many things that it is as if you have grown up together? Some say you cannot fall in love via the internet but love is everywhere. Love is not only the love being shared between two people who become one through marriage, it is also the love between parent and child, siblings, relatives, friends, neighbors, pets, and anything else you can think of. Love is more that one word – it is life – it means more to life that it can show or be described in words – trust me on that I have tried.
Now how do we come to know what we truly love and what is just a bond that has formed due to being around that person a little too much, so much you become to see yourself in the other. The reason you see yourself within that other person is because you obviously influenced their life in some way, usually in a better way, and you have shown your light of life on them. That light is passed through each and every person whom you come in contact with and even those you just pass by. Everybody has this light and it must be passed on somehow. What if that way of passing on the light is via internet – does that really seem that hard and bad. I don't think so – sometimes that is the only way some people will see the light of life, and in some cases love.
I may be only a child to some people's eyes, a mini adult to another, and others don't look at me as either – they look at me as a soul, a mature and caring soul. I have been called mother by many of my friends because of the caring I do for them and I am called many other grateful names by those that I have met online. Those people online are those that I have helped with many various situations and they have shown to me that there is more to the internet than just basic communication – there is a way of forming bonds and extended family. I have joined many different sites and within each one I find different people and different styles of living. This past winter I ran across someone who needed help with learning to be a little less shy and more straight forward with talking to the girl that he liked. Well in the course of giving him that advice it seems that we were forming this bond or relationship that was different that many others that form online, or even in person. We have taught each other that love comes in many forms and in many ways. We began to open up with each other a little bit each day, now we share many of the same friends and it is great. Everything we say is truly from the heart and not just speaking through trying to impress the other. Why? Because, really does impressing the other sex get you into a true relationship?!? I don't think so. It comes from being yourself and showing to the other that there is more to life than living normal or how others want you to live.
I have recently gone and read many of my old messages that we have written ever since we began talking and I notice that I never really gave him full advice. I gave him advice but nothing really from the heart, probably because my heart was busy thinking something else at the time and it hadn't registered in my brain just yet. I realize now that we had some strange thing for each other ever since the beginning. I even saw a message I know I didn't think twice about when I read it at the time but now when I read it that second time I notice that it was something, something meaningful. That message has all the words it took to know what love is or what it could be. I realized at that moment that there is something like fate or true relations made via the internet.
Yes, I have fallen for him in a way that I don't think I could fall for any other person that I have met or passed by through my daily life. I know that he has liked me as well and if it weren't for the distance we would have actually gone beyond what we are at now. We do act as if we were gf/bf but we are not held down solid in a relationship because we know that the other is trusting. We also know that there are others out there and we will always be there for each other no matter what.
He is not only the guy I like, but he is my best friend and the only one I will go to with my problems and know I am in trusting hands.
~I wasn't sure where this was going to go but I see that is where it went – it followed along with my heart and all of the confusing and winding paths it likes to take me on. Please comment and give me your opinions on this. I love to know what other people have to think about this subject because it is my favorite subject that is not taught in school. There is never a wrong thought – there is only your personal opinion and it should be heard.~
