In search of...
Ok, a new day arrives...
I must confess, yesterday I was a bit tired of studying all day I decided to let my mind rest for a while with a good movie, so I went to see "The Day after Tomorrow". I don't know if I should thank the "hour and half" I spent driving around the mall for a parking space, or the fact that it was Sunday and EVERYONE gets together to go to the movies, but I got there LATE, and there was no early shows (at least not til 9:00 pm). So I figured, I might as well catch another movie (these days there aren't many good movies showing, and to my taste, I rather rent a foreign than see some cheap action movie), so there it was: "Something's Gotta Give" starring Jack Nicholson and Diane Keaton.
First off, WHAT A GREAT MOVIE! I would definitely recommend it to those who are just full of (and emptied out of) life and love. (life seems to be the subject in matter at the moment huh?). A movie teaching a good lesson, no matter how you see it, it all comes down to that main subject: In a relationship SOMEONE just gotta give.
This is a real issue that just doesn't happen to one person, but to a whole population out there, who have inmense theories about love, and "letting go" and those sappy thoughts about "If you love someone let it go, if it comes back it was yours to keep, if it doesn't, it just wasn't meant to be". Ok, so part of that is true, but what if real true love requires more effort than just sitting with your arms crossed staring at the horizon waiting for anything to happen?
It's a matter of playing your cards right. Destiny does happen, but for those who seek their fortune, not letting fortune come to them. I've had those experiences in the past, and that's why I'm sharing this. You just let go because it's needed, but destiny just comes around once in a while and says "HEY STUPID, I'M HERE COME GET ME!", while you're just goofin around through unimportant issues in your daily life. It's a matter of choice, a matter of dedication, of giving, of reaching higher than expected.
It's funny, sometimes I would have never thought that destiny throughout the years gives out oportunities, it's like a winning lottery. You've got your number, claim your price when the time is right. And it doesn't just comes around once in a lifetime, it comes MANY times in a lifetime, the problem is choosing, and not setting your mind straight over what you really want.
As humans, we are so fooled by our failures, by our deceptions, and mostly about our defects. Our insecurities are based on that, and that is why we sometimes feel that it's not just "the right time" to give in to love. Let me give you the real deal here: THERE IS NO RIGHT TIME IN LIFE. It's just about seeking and taking risks when your number is up. You bet and gamble, and sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. That's the way to really get what's going on in your love life.
So you've got feelings for that person sitting next to you in class? Ask him/her out for good... what's there to lose? Integrity? I rather lose that, than have a guilt trip lasting for a long time. How about while BEING in a relationship: So it all turns to routine, ask yourself what's there to lose, and what's there to risk to actually change that routine for merely a second (worth lasting a lifetime).
I quote The Darkness: "I believe in a thing called love"... So I think I'm not gonna just sit here and wait, I'm gonna build up strategies to find her, or just find her again (who knows, sometimes true love is just around the corner, you just never looked around, eyes wide open to actually SEE IT).
It's about destiny, but also about CHOICE! People, make sure you beleive in your choice, no matter how good or bad it is, as long as it gives you a lesson (and a reward, who wouldn't like that!). Or else consider yourself warned, one word: PROZAC.
In the end, don't be so proud; someone just gotta give in...
