I haven’t written about my past and my experiences in relationship. It had been a rough and often painful journey. I learned so much about myself and about how relationship works, many times by not doing the right thing. But even then beautiful things happen despite my ignorance and misunderstanding. I hope that what I have learned helps others that I meet in life.
What I have learned is that love takes patience.
Love is a journey that often is not pleasant but worthy of the patience
It is not a destination (Thank God)
Love is about learning, both about the other person, and about yourself
Love takes courage
Courage to look deep within yourself to find that special pace that, even though you may not feel it at the moment, the love you felt for that person in the beginning is still there.
Love is nurturing
Love, in itself, not selfish
It is self-less, it is about the journey with another person
Love is growth
I have learned that we choose to be in relationship, but is also a choice to experience the highs and lows of relationship, and not seek escape when we don’t like the lows.
The last thing I want those I love is to experience regret.
Remember, patience.
