Sometimes you have to run away, so you can see who will run after you.
Sometimes you have to talk quieter, just to see who's listening.
Sometimes you have to make a wrong decision, just to see who's there when it all falls down.
Sometimes you have to step up in a fight, just to see who's standing by your side.
Sometimes you just have to look up, and see that someone’s already there.

2 Comments Links to this postThe most difficult thing in any relationship (with a significant other or simple friendship) is the chances you have to take. Most of the time it’s like playing a card game, I’ll use 21 as an example. When you’re playing 21 you are trying to gain 21 points (or as close to as possible) with the cards you attain. You use phrases like “hit me” to gain more cards which could come to our advantage or quite literally hit us hard and would lead to a bust.
But is there a way to win or prevent ourselves from busting without taking chances?
Personally this is one of the most exciting and scary aspects of all my relationships, the fear of losing. Committing yourself to a person or a group of people could mean that you missed out on the other person or group that could’ve, might’ve, would’ve been better. I am a believer in taking chances and never really settling down until I’ve found something really good. But how can we find the stability if we never settle down for anything?
Lately I have been learning the lesson of working hard with what you already have until you have exhausted all your efforts and until you’ve realized that it would be better if you just walk the other way and let both lives be better. Still even after that separation you may find yourself right back into that card game. There isn’t such a thing as a mistake that we can’t learn from. Even after busting a few times, we can learn the tips and tricks on how to play the game better the next time until we feel satisfied and staying where we are.
To answer my previous question of whether we can actually prevent ourselves from busting, the answer is a clear no. However don’t ever prevent yourself from trying in fear of busting. So love and care for the ones around you unconditionally as if they were your first and last. Play the game safe and if you do bust and find that they are not your perfect match then move on and be thankful for the experiences and memories you’ve shared, and look forward to learning more tricks at how to play the game, of life.
