Just finished watching Tuesday with Morrie.

Indeed it’s a very inspiring movies with lotsa meaningful quotes teaching you about life.

In fact i think it parallels Christian teachings.

It holds on to the same beliefs and values, i feel.

The clip strikes a chord with me as it touches on my main belief of “Love”.

How i always believe we need more love in the world.

How we should love one another more.

And how we should love ourselves more.

And how we should not be afraid to love and be loved.

“The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in.”

“We must love one another or die”

In my opinion, love is the foundation of life.

Out of love, stems all the other values of trust, compassion, forgiveness and even fear.

Of course, there are so many more but that is to name a few.

But as the world gets more advanced and our life gets more busy, sometimes we took the people around us for granted.

And sometimes we failed to slow down to appreciate all that we had.

We failed to tell our loved ones “I love you”.

We failed to acknowledge the people around us.

We failed to smile to the people next to us.

And sometimes we get so fearful of the world that we lock ourselves up in both the physical and emotional space.

We become so much of an individual that at times we forget that this world is made up of communities.

That everyone is interconnected in this fragile world.

Love is the bridge to connect everyone.

We may not understand the different languages.

But we can definitely understand/ feel love from one another.

Ah now i am really looking forward to reading the book.

Sometimes it is not about possession, i guess.

So many things to consider.

Many a times, it is more than just about yourself or another.

But it involves so many other parties and so many things.

Talks about love being holding on to the one you love despite knowing there are troubles ahead or knowing the difficulties the other party will face.

Or is it about letting the one you love go for a better future?

Will you choose the one you love passionately but who has betrayed and hurt you?

Or will you choose the one that you like and whom you know you will have a better future with?

It’s logical to choose the one with a better future but how do they deal with the emotional attachment to the one they love?

But i guess love once betrayed is hard to trust again.

Scars remain and will never be completely healed.

So why settle for hurts when bliss is right ahead.

That’s probably what went through in the mind.

That i can only guess.

The most innocent-looking person may turn out to be the most ‘cunning’ one.

Can’t really judge a book by its cover.

I’m amazed at what people can do for love.

What people will do to grab their own happiness in their hands.

I wish i am like that too.

Will you choose to let go of a person now knowing it will hurt the person immensely now or will you choose to hold on to protect the person for now but knowing that it may hurt him/her even more in future.

Long Distance Relationship.

How to maintain it without the presence of one another by the side?

How to feel the love and support when the person is just not there physically.

So many things you wanna do but couldn’t.

Then insercurities creeping in.

Also you have to go through the pain of missing somebody.

Then slowly you became numb and begin to question do you still have any feelings or love.

Being a faithful cab passenger, i’ve encountered many interesting rides.

There is always this sense of mystery and expectancy when you take a cab.

Wondering what cab you will be taking.

And what kind of cab driver you will meet.

Just as how there are different brand and types of cab out there on the road.

There are also cab drivers with different personality and different stories.

There are those that are rather grumpy, that gets easily irritated by the slightest thing.

Then there are those who seem to be more in a rush than you and takes you on a ‘racing’ trip, which is both scary and exciting.

Then there are those that are super chatty, who goes on and on, not leaving you with any peace when all you wanted in the morning was some peace and rest.

Then there are those that are just nonchalent and quiet, and usually i prefer such sorts because i just didn’t feel like talking in the morning.

But meeting the chatty ones, once in a while, makes the cab experience rather interesting.

The stories they shared and the information they gave are sometimes rather inspiring or insightful.

It is through the ride that i know of how the shopping mall over at my place has been blacklisted by the cab company for call booking.

Then there is also the talk about the hike and complains of the drivers.

Then there are the ones who will tell you how hard it is to earn a living these days and advise you to spend money wisely.

As usual, i met a rather chatty uncle today, who despite my non-response, manage to continue the conversation for the whole journey.

But it was a nice chat.

He shared about the very importance of being, and that is love.

He talked about his kids and his divorced wife.

How the kids prefer to be with him rather than the mother because they knew he love them, and more so with his heart.

The wife, on the other hand, loves her job more and displays her love only through monetary terms and tangible things.

He taught me, in application to my job, the only thing i need to do is to love the kids.

That the intangible is more impactful than the tangible.

How by treating the kids with love and sincerity, i will be able to win their hearts.

That it is not so much about gimmicks or what you do.

But what you feel in your heart.

And that is, loving and believing in every individual.

“Love changes everything!”

“All that really matters is love”

Why do people wanna love when it’s so full of pain?

But i guess it is through these pain that we learnt how to love.

Came across this quote in a book,

“Grief is the ultimate act of love”

You won’t know what grief is until you have really loved.

It stems from love and experienced when you lose it.

“Je t’aime”

Est ce ce que je souhaite que je puisse dire à vous.

Mais ce sera toujours un secret profondément à mon coeur.

Ne pas être parlé.

Mais comment je souhaite vous avez su.
