afraid to be hurt
had a conversation with a friend of mine not too long ago, and she expresses her concern of being hurt again in a new relationship. immediately i drew a parallel concern that i faced, and i pondered....
i guess i was nv afraid to begin with, but wat makes me feel that way? maybe it was because of the recency effect??? after some great thots that I had at the range just now, i guess i wasn't and will not be afraid of being hurt. Regardless, hurt is part of the process of living. One can never be hurt too much, however, one can feel that they have been hurt too much. See the difference? =p
If it is meant to be, it is meant to be, y play god and try to avoid the inevitable. Why not let your hair down and enjoy the process. =p
Allow me to quote Rocky Balboa... "Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done. Now, if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hit, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you. You're better than that!"
In life, it is really not how hard you fall, is about how you get hit and keep moving forward. Pain is only temporary. Satisfaction may not be guranteed but one thing for sure, you can and will only do better from there.
If you are afraid to be hurt, you will start to be afraid to love. And when you are afraid to love, you basically lose the purpose of your glorified life. We live to love, and love we must. Love not only thyself, but thy family, close friends but also, even your enemies.
Love is a big word, but it only contains 4 letters. why can it be so hard to love? Hurt is a BIG word too, and it contains 4 letters too. can both coexist together? I would say yes for the ultimate fact that He died on the cross for us, he was hurt physically, to mentally and even spiritually and yet, he still love us just as much.
go forth and spread thy love. LOVE HURTS but you should still LOVE HURT.
