love ...

A dear friend once mentioned this ...

''love - commitment - fence''

True love is rare but not impossible to achive. Sometimes it knocks on your door trying to get in, and sometimes it goes straight in, overwhelms you and leaves before you even realise it was there. It either grows on you or hits you like a hurricane.

Love brings me to high heavens and abysimal lows. It grows me much faster than the speed of light. It hails storm and weather the coldest winter. It survived the scorch of burning rays and a source of radiance, warmth and glory. Irregardless of it's short stay sometimes, it comes without notice and least expected. It feeds my soul through the open door of my heart. It breathes life into every veins of my body. It elates me to unknown and safest places that I didn't realise exist. Love pushes all boudaries that allows me to see what lies beyond the technicalities of life.

Commitment is the only logic applies that keeps me on firm ground to walk on, with a direction.

Restrictions are felt when insecurities creep in and tipping the scale of balance of trying to maintain freedom and originality. Fence is a convenient way for mental time-out or drawing boundaries for the extremes, which is never a healthy environment to grow in.

Nevertheless, when both hearts are open at the same time, compromise is easier and understanding established. Individual roles are respected within the relationship, creating channels of communications.

I live by this; to love gives me courage, to be loved gives me strength, responsibility gives me security and money only creates beauty.
