Why We Are In Such A Hurry?
Bali, December 2016 |
As I grow older, I thought there are so many more important
things to be thinking about, things to be done, becoming what we want to
become, and all those never-ending life's matters other than love. But at the
same time, I realize that human could never give up on love too. In the
end, it's always the thing they -we are- all searching for, and maybe,
need of. Even if they're just a teenager, twenty-somethings, or real adults.
Everyone has different yet same question about love. And
these days, it seems like nearly everyone (or at least, everyone I know) is in
such a hurry for finding, or settling their "true love".
I find this 'urge' to have 'the one' is somehow.....
dangerous (?) that we could fell into the trap called phantasm. Just because we
don't want to be alone, we told ourself that we love 'her/him'.
We think... It's okay, even we spent the dates staring each other's
phones, instead of looking into each other's eyes.
We think... It's okay, even we spent hours tried to understand their
stories with mind's blank and vice versa, instead of actually talking and
sharing and exchanging many random things to serious matters we could repeated all over again with
them without ever feels bored.
We think... It's okay, even we spent times together with them with this
awkward smile, instead of laughing your ass together over silly jokes only both
of you could understand.
We think... It's okay, even we spent days without having a proper
communications than 'how's ur work?', 'how are u?', etc, instead of really
care about each other conditions immensely.
We think... It's okay, even we spent months, years, having this
'emotional repression' and always trying to look okay, trying to be strong,
trying to be happy with them, instead of crying our heart out and tell them
what we need and make them a shoulder to cry on.
NO.
It is NOT okay.
We don't have to be -or feel- content with that, just
because our illusion that he/she is the one, we can't lose them, we love them,
we can't be alone, anymore.
Everyone deserves the right person for them.
A person who makes our heart beat faster by simply saying
our name. A person who makes a big smile on our face whenever we look at them. A
person who will twirl the strands of our hair around their fingers when we feel
tired. A person who can understand our mixed feelings and emotions, and hold
our hands to make us know, they are there for us. A person.... I don't know.
Everything is different for everyone.
But I know now, what I need is... a person whom I can
completely trust, a person I could lean on, a reliable person that want to
protect me and all my feelings. With him, I can bare all my weakness, without
having any worries. With him, I have the same vision and mission to live the life. With him, I'm sure he could be my -not only a partner, but a leader- until the afterlife.
And for meet that one who speaks for our souls, maybe we don't have to be in
hurry. Maybe?
