the thing called love

Mohammed Hijazi quotes: "Woman reaches love through friendship; man reaches friendship through love." 

Well I agree with this one even if others may not or do not believe that this is true on most cases. Women develop the feeling of being in love as they know a person deeper and it definitely starts with friendship. 

Friendship could let each other put both of their feet forward. Be it their best or worst. No pretensions. No standards. No expectations. Just love and the thought of sticking to each other until their last breath. 

Some women resort to being friends with the one that they have feelings for only because friendship could last longer than the one of deeper commitment. Or just simple because having a relationship with that person is not quite possible and the thought of being away from that person will never have a space on one's mind. On friendship, those petty quarrels will not last for a lifetime  for a simple smile could sometimes settle it all. It's like a cycle of how rain drops and then evaporates. Quarrel-making up-quarrel-making up and so on. 

Friendship becomes a foundation of a lifetime relationship. But there are people who are afraid to gamble. There is nothing wrong with loving a friend. If you are afraid of losing a friend just because you have fallen or stepped on each others boundaries that you two agreed to set, then you are not yet ready to gamble and to get hurt. Loving someone is always associated with getting hurt. Well, that sucks. But why will you think negatively if you yourself know that you are not doing anything bad that could possibly hurt the feeling of the one that you love? If you are prepared well to gamble, then go ahead coz you will never know what awaits you unless you give it a try.

Love and pain. Two four-letter word. The first one could put you on a pedestal of happiness but the other could put you underground of hopelessness. If there is love, expect that there will be pain. Like some says, "You'll never know that you are inlove unless you get hurt." 

Love. The word that could put a simple yet extraordinary smile associated with a feeling that no words could explain well. It's like the song that you learn to sing even if you are so out of tune. It's like one of your many clothes that you want to wear for like almost everyday. It's like the scent of your perfume that you would love to smell and you could not forget.

If you are inlove, those simple things that you do could mean a lot to the one you love. Be it all those crazy stuff that you do not even thought of doing. You could recognize his/her voice in the middle of a crowded room. You become a poet, a singer and a joker all at the same time. You become eager to learn things that you do not imagine of doing. Like learning how to cook his/her favorite food. You become conscious of how you look like. Hearing his/her name could make your heart beat faster than the usual. His/her interests become yours too. You are willing to change everything just for that thing called love. But if everything didn't turn out the way that you dreamed of and you want it to, you get hurt. You just forget everything. All becomes meaningless.

But do not marked it as the end of your world. Just think that you only need to stop where you've been left behind and park your car. You have to think about the whole thing so you could learn from it and then you could continue your journey. You have to let go so you could learn to fall in love again. You will never know if someone might park right beside you.  Don't you want to feel that amazing thing again? =)
