Have you asked yourself? Why now? Why him/her? Why me? I did. We all have the same stories. One day we wake up without knowing that we'll meet someone who might change our lives 'forever'. Then time will come that you have to ask yourself if that someone's a blessing or a lesson. Your question will not be answered unless you will figure it out. So, you tried everything and see if things will work out. And maybe, if everything seems so perfect you will feel magical… like a fairytale (well at least, that's what we think)! You will wake up every morning with that smile on your face, a blush on your cheeks, that glow in your eyes. I understand. That's part of falling in love. But what if you're that clueless that everything will fall apart? You won't know how much it'll hurt, how much pain it'll give you unless something ungrateful will happen. So what happens next if that moment comes? …… I don't know. Maybe, you'll end up broken. Maybe, you'll end up disappointed. Maybe, you'll end up frustrated. Maybe, you'll end up angry. Or maybe, you'll end up being alone again. Now you ask.. Why now? Why him/her? Why me? It's okay to ask, but never blame yourself. After all, love come and go, some times it'll be better for us to be hurt than to not. We'll grow everyday, we become mature, we endure the pain, we become stronger and better. Love and pain will build our character. Blaming yourself won't change anything, it'll just destroy every chance you have in life. You know, you gotta learn how to appreciate pain. Without pain, your life wouldn't be that wonderful. If you fall in love with the wrong(right) person in the wrong(right) time… it's okay. You're human, you can't control your feelings anyway. You live because you love, you live because of love. The pain that you feel now is just a test of how far can you go for love. You don't give up love, but you sacrifice for love. People say if you love someone, set them free. But I say, if you love someone fight for it.. then if everything fails, try it again. Your life is wonderful because of the pain that love gives you. You just have to open your eyes, your heart, and your mind. If love fails you for the nth time, don't be discouraged to fall in love again. Falling in love is the best feeling in the world, it may not end up like those fairytales we see in Disney movies, but at least you have experienced such magical stories. Remember, stories are not always meant to have a happy ending. We fear love, we're scared that we might get hurt again, that we might end up being alone again. But in reality, there's nothing to be afraid of. Fear not for love is a great experience, it gives you so much memories to remember.. even if it's bad or not. If you're not fortunate in love, then smile. You have to show people that despite all the things happened to you, you still have a beautiful smile to show because it will always remind them how strong you have become after the pain that love have brought you. A little reminder, Life is so short... love and embrace the beauty of pain before your time runs out. And YOU, yes YOU! You can have your own real life fairytale. :)
