The Shape of Heart

LOVE BLURS YOUR VISION

Why does LOVE BLURS your VISION? Is it just like with the famous quotes we usually hear that "LOVE IS BLIND"?

Try to love somebody that you never met. Try to fall with someone whose face you haven't seen. Try kissing for someone whose lips you've never touched. Or hold his/her hands whose fingers you could imagine as yours. Try making love with someone whom reflections you've seen is so blur, you climb for such imagination that he/she is there beside you. STUPIDITY isn't it?

Then if you broke up with that someone you've never seen at all...the wound still too deep to imagine. You get the hard time to recover from it.

How do you move on and get up from the fall? Well I am there now...I am madly, deeply in love with this guy I haven't seen for a long time. Sounds crazy? Yes, it is. I honestly dumb and stupid and I finally realize that I am amazingly having an affair with someone, with no conditions, with no repercussions, with no appearance to indulge with the PAIN I am suffering now. Is this a literal proof that LOVE IS TOTALLY BLIND? Or am I just LOSING MY VISION here?

Is this the kind of thing you see if you sit in the darkness with open eyes and never thinking what the future brings? Am I dreaming? Please wake me up before I drowned in my own dilemma. ~sigh~

The World Is A Book of Travel

This quote was written by Saint Augustine of Hippo.

He was the bishop of Hippo Regius (today this place is called Annaba, Algeria). He was a Latin philosopher and theologian from the Africa Province of the Roman Empire and is generally considered as one of the greatest Christian thinkers of all times. His writings were very influential in the development of Western Christianity.

According to his contemporary Jerome, Augustine "established anew the ancient Faith." In his early years he was heavily influenced by Manichaeism and afterward by the Neo-Platonism of Plotinus. After his conversion to Christianity and his baptism in 387, Augustine developed his own approach to philosophy and theology, accommodating a variety of methods and different perspectives. He believed that the grace of Christ was indispensable to human freedom, and he framed the concepts of original sin and just war.

When the Western Roman Empire was starting to disintegrate, Augustine developed the concept of the Catholic Church as a spiritual City of God (in a book of the same name), distinct from the material Earthly City. His thoughts profoundly influenced the medieval worldview. Augustine's City of God was closely identified with the Church, the community that worshiped the Trinity.

In the Catholic Church, he is a saint and pre-eminent Doctor of the Church, and the patron of the Augustinians; his memorial is celebrated 28 August, the day of his death. He is the patron saint of brewers, printers, theologians, the alleviation of sore eyes, and a number of cities and dioceses.

Run Away

Running away doesn't mean you are weak. Same as TRAVELLING. People who loves to travel aren't running away from LIFE.

To RUN from LOVE doesn't means you don't love that person. Just the opposite.

People who tends to break the molds, explore the real meaning of LIFE. We need to be alone just to understand what is going on.

IDENTITY

A quote from ENDER GAME (Orson Scott Card). Very meaningful quote that I like to share it with you.

If you mimic someone's identity make sure to make it more realistic and much more believable. Make a major characters more fully than minor one.

Whilst someone take on an identity, they will start behaving someone like it. As in "COPY-PASTE", their mind and character are will adapt to the identity their trying to project.

And start becoming it.

Setting a limit on what you are going to portray is the best solution to this. But this is very dangerous. As long as you are there you have the difficulty to go out. If you have hard time to set yourself free then that is a big QUESTION.

HAZY RECKONING

When we love we always ask ourselves WHY ME? Love is difficult to define, hard to understand. Yet, we like to be loved. We always come back and be loved.

Even and after we fall, we tend to get hurt but we cannot resist love.

If we want to forget something or someone, never hate it, or never hate him or her. We carry everything in us, the will to forgive someone is until we want to. Healing is a process as we speak.

Downing is not giving up. Love lives on. YOU LIVES ON! The haziness will past by and YOU will live forever.

Fly in the Freedom

One of the best things that the persons can feel is the freedom.

Words can be like X-rays

It's like that when you say bad things to someone it will come back to you. What a big KARMA!

FEAR NOT

Almost every book in the Bible has a "fear not" in it. The enemy uses fear, but God would have us to have faith in Him. Although Job was a righteous man and would not speak evil, he opens the door through thoughts of fear for the enemy to work in his life. "For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me. I was not in safety, neither had I rest, neither was I quiet; yet trouble came" (Job 3:25-26).

In a relationship arguments, disagreement or hatred is part of LIFE as a couple. We don't need to quarrel on a small thing, but we need to speak out if we know we are on the right side.

We don't need to quarrel if we want a peaceful life. Go out and be merry, if you have problems don't think of it as a problem but a CHALLENGE.

CHALLENGE to face life. It is the life itself. It finds its way no matter what. Like the plants finds the way to grow up even in the most unproductive place like rocks.

Independent Self Trap

Photo by drewpillow.com

If I have fallen into the Independent Self Trap I will imagine that I am totally separate and distinct from other people. I will have forgotten my interconnectedness and interdependence with others.

Traditional logic programing tells us a thing cannot be itself and something else (A is not not A).

This trap determines the kind of action that a person or organization takes when it fails to consider the people who will be deeply affected by it.

In relationships, sometimes one partner will act as if his or her actions had no effect on the other partner. For instance, one partner will spend money on something that prevents the family from buying things it needs. Or one or more of the partners will spend so much time in advancing their careers that relationships suffer in the family as a whole. Because we think of ourselves only as independent selves, one sometimes we do nothing, i.e., do not call or write a loved or friend for a few days when they are expecting it, and find out from their reactions that we are not as independent as we had thought.

Fear Love...Fear Life

Photo by magnus_maximus

first you have to define what form of love you are talking about.
love as sex should be abstained until marriage
love as God should be embraced but many prophets say and taught you must fear at the same time
love of friends is not always available
love of family should always be embraced except the worst enemies of the household are your own brothers and sisters if not mother or father.

Letting Go

HEARTBREAK. Is more than just an emotional defeat; to some the pain is very real. At one point or another, everyone must experience this mind numbing feeling.

LETTING GO. If you let go a little, you will have a little peace. If you let go a lot, you will have a lot of peace.

TRUST

Trust is important, but it is also dangerous. It is important because it allows us to form relationships with others and to depend on others—for love, for advice, for help with our plumbing, or what have you—especially when we know that no outside force compels them to give us such things. But trust also involves the risk that people we trust will not pull through for us; for, if there were some guarantee that they would pull through, then we would have no need to trust them. Thus, trust is also dangerous. What we risk while trusting is the loss of the things that we entrust to others, including our self-respect, perhaps, which can be shattered by the betrayal of our trust.
