Happiness. So cherished, so desired. Yet, so fragile. It slips through your fingers so quickly, sometimes even before you get to enjoy its presence. Sometimes, it stays a while, and people take it for granted. Then *POOF* it's gone in a flash; your world comes crumbling down, and you wonder as your tears fall to the ground, why it couldn't have stayed just a little while longer.
As you say a final goodbye, you wish you'd said some heartfelt words to him right at the beginning. 'The greatest weakness of most humans is their hesitancy to tell others how much they love them while they're still alive.' Indeed it's the case. Is being embarrassed worse than never getting those three words off your chest? I think not. That period of delightful bliss - you will never forget it, or the person with whom you had spent your days with. But it will never seem enough, no matter how long it was. People always say, 'Don't take things for granted' and we hear it. But how often do we hear - and listen? Save for a precious few, the rest just go on with their lives, until one day the same horrendous fate strikes them down, and then they wonder why they didn't listen in the first place. Sometimes, happiness can be right in front of your eyes - and you can miss it. Looking isn't seeing, whatever people tell you. When you see, don't just see with your eyes, but with your heart. Look beyond the surface, beyond what things seem to be, and just perhaps, you might have found a little piece of heaven. So hold to it, guard it, fiercely and jealously, with love, passion and flame. But no matter what you do, one day, that love will fade away. Love starts with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a tear. Tears do stop, and some day you will find you can look back on it and find it doesn't hurt anymore. Love sought is good, but given unsought is better. So don't go out and look for love, instead, let love look for you. Peer pressure is no reason to get up and look for someone to love. That isn't love at all. You may feel lonely, seeing all your friends with their specific other at their sides 24/7. But is it worth it, you ask. Is what they feel for each other true love, or love cultivated from peer pressure? In the end, although the night winds are cold, there always is a sunny morning, and there will come a day when there are arms wrapped around you to protect you from the harsh winds, and emphasise the warmth of the sun's rays. In due time, you'll find a little piece of heaven that God set aside specially for you, and even if that love goes away home one day, you know that it was true love, and true happiness, that you felt, and in the end, the wait is all worthwhile. Happiness. It may last only a little while, yet bring eternal joy. |
