I will never let fear guide me in my search for love
and make me accept anything less that the real thing. Instead, I will trust
myself and listen to my heart, because there lay all the answers. No logic can
explain how love happens; even though we try to put it in scientific terms, it
defies logical laws. It can only be felt. Therefore, I will let love guide me
and trust the process of life, instead of trying to rush it by settling for an
unfulfilling relationship for fear of being alone or not going through
important milestones “on time.”
I’ve learned my lessons.
I will not let my past cloud over my present and
future. Instead, I will use my past experiences as a reminder of how much I
have grown and how well I am doing in becoming my best version. I won’t dwell
on times gone by and choices made — I’ll let them make me better, not bitter.
So, I’ve sifted and sorted through my past in order to collect what I’ve
learned about myself, and about love, and I’ve chosen what to let go of, and
what will drive me to keep going.
’ve let go of blaming and criticizing myself and
anyone else. I’ve realized what someone else is doing and thinking is perfectly
fine. Everyone is right in their own realm, and each of us has a unique path
and purpose to fulfil. Therefore, I find parting as a relief instead as a
reason for sorrow because it helped me learn more, and it brought more clarity
to my definition of love. I cherish each past experience as I am grateful for
each lesson I have learned (some of them repeatedly).
I refuse to get pressured into unfulfilling
relationships.
Now, I can truly enjoy being single and rest assured
that I’m always on the right path. I won’t let myself get caught in the trap of
settling for the wrong relationship just to get “figured out.” I deserve more
than that. We all do.
We have to love ourselves enough to let our hearts
be louder than our brains. Only then will we let ourselves allow the love to
find us. I will make room for love, by cleaning my heart from past sorrows,
wrong beliefs, fears, blame, jealousy, worry, lies, and everything love is not.
I’ve used my time alone to distinguish between the true desires of my heart and
the ones of others I’ve unconsciously picked up along the way. We owe it to
ourselves never to let any other person take up all of our time no matter how
much we love each other. So, I’m making a promise to myself that I will make
time every day to work on myself by doing things I enjoy and improving myself.
We all deserve the love that is kind, compassionate,
caring, understanding, appreciating, believing, core-shaking, forward-looking,
honest, and eternal. Therefore, I refuse to settle for anything less.
I won’t settle for love that is quantifiable and
conditional, for love that demands or begs, or for unfulfilling conversations
and cold embraces. Each and every one of us cannot accept blind pursuits
governed only by a physical desire, for we know better. We don’t need
explanation nor reason to love.
I won’t force love.
I will not turn my quest for love into a struggle to
get it by all means. I want to enjoy every step of the way. By realizing that
love starts and grows within us, we understand that to ask for it would mean we
don’t have enough of it within ourselves. Only by giving more do we have it
returned multiplied. Our quest should not be governed by the need to find
someone to complete us, someone who wants to lose themselves by looking into
our eyes. We would much rather hold each other’s hand and look in the same
direction as we grow together.
No, I won’t settle for less. And neither should you.
