nice talking

Posted in Womanhood at 7:17 am by erald17

I was chatting with a friend one night and i was surprised to know that i am not the only person who doesn’t want to talk about love. i told him, "What the hell do i know about love?" yet here i am writing about love, and talking to myself about this incomprehensible topic.

i can recall the question i pose to one of my editors. a question that just popped into my mind. i can ask this question to anybody but i prefered to ask her in particular since she had a boyfriend for four long years, and started the relationship when she was in high school. and so i wondered, it could be love. and then i asked her, "Paano mo malalaman na in love ka?" She replied, "Basta malalaman mo na lang na in love ka."

strange answer. yet i believe there is truth in that statement. even though i know that i haven’t experienced being "in love" or feeling what they call "greatest feeling", something tells me that i do not have to ask myself, "Am i in love?" because by the time that i am, i will naturally utter, without reproach nor reservation, that, "I am in love."

i might as well agree to what Neal Donald Walsh wrote, "Say ‘I love you’ when you are out of your mind." because when you are in love, you no longer need to think whether you are in love or not. when you are in love, you do not think twice. when you are in love, you love without question.

will you take this from someone who has never experienced what ever it is?

what the hell do i know about love!

Story of the year

Mountain Story - An interesting short story

"A son and his father were walking on the mountains.
Suddenly, his son falls, hurts himself and screams: "AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
To his surprise, he hears the voice repeating, somewhere in the mountain: "AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
Curious, he yells: "Who are you?"
He receives the answer: "Who are you?"
And then he screams to the mountain: "I admire you!"
The voice answers: "I admire you!"
Angered at the response, he screams: "Coward!"
He receives the answer: "Coward!"
He looks to his father and asks: "What’s going on?"
The father smiles and says: "My son, pay attention."
Again the man screams: "You are a champion!"
The voice answers: "You are a champion!"
The boy is surprised, but does not understand.
Then the father explains: "People call this ECHO, but really this is LIFE.
It gives you back everything you say or do.
Our life is simply a reflection of our actions.
If you want more love in the world, create more love in your heart.
If you want more competence in your team, improve your competence.
This relationship applies to everything, in all aspects of life;
Life will give you back everything you have given to it."

YOUR LIFE IS NOT A COINCIDENCE. IT’S A REFLECTION OF YOU!"
