TEAR DROP


There was this  two little teardrop that were floating together down
the river of life. One drop said to the other, "I am the teardrop
of a girl who loved a man and lost him" and continued
"Who are you?" asked the first teardrop.
"Well I am the teardrop of the girl who won him,"
answered the second drop.

Love is very strange.
Love is unconditional commitment to an imperfect individual.
You need it but when you love it's like destining yourself for pain.
You become addicted and dependent to it.
You become strong and at the same time you open
yourself to being hurt.
Love can make you bear any kind of pain
and any kind of sacrifice.

It can also make you feel stupid and act stupidity.
Sometimes when you love and end up giving so much of yourself,
subconsciously you only discover how much you've given
when that person you love hurts you or has to say goodbye.
Then you realize an important part of yourself
is already with that person.
It goes away when he leaves and
you are left with sickening, empty feeling inside.

Tears are bound to shed from your eyes
no matter how you force yourself to keep them in.
Most teardrops ever shed on this earth have been
for love or lack of it.

When tears dry, a silent loss sticks to your heart for a long, long time.
Well that's what you get for caring so much about someone.
But how can you regret it?
To give yourself freely and lovingly is
the most beautiful thing you can do.
Loving makes you real.
Loving also makes you cry.
And that is why teardrop is also BEAUTIFUL.
