A wise and understanding heart does not repay a hurt with a hurt.
In doing so, the heart is diminished.
Fissures form.
Love leaks out.
Every pain given in return for one received,
changes the contents of the heart.
It is no longer defined by love, wisdom, and understanding.
It is redefined by the bearers of hurt and hate,
pain and prejudice,
meanness and madness,
sorrow and sadness.
You give away control of your very own heart.
The despair of being hurt is healed by overcoming it,
not clinging to the hurt and inflicting more of it on the world.
When darkness is added to darkness,
no one can see,
no one can love.
Everyone loses.
Love is not always warm and fuzzy.
Sometimes it's the integrity we hold on to when we're tempted to strike back.
Sometimes it's the honor that keeps us from exchanging the valuable contents of our heart for the harsh satisfaction of lashing back.
No,
the way of love is not always easy,
but when night falls,
dawn is assured.
The integrity and honor of a wise and understanding heart,
rises with the sun of a new day.
"Because you have asked for understanding to discern judgment.
I have given you a wise and understanding heart."
(1 Kings 3:11-12)
Living in love and loving life.

Hari ini gw gk ngasih komentar panjang.
Perasaan gw juga lagi campur aduk dan gk jelas kenapa.
Harus mencoba mengendalikan hati gw sendiri memang. Haha.
Cinta itu memang tidak mudah,
sama seperti hidup.
Jadi...
LET IT BE. :)
+Lyrics of the day+
Datanglah sayang dan biarkan ku berbaring
Di pelukanmu walaupun 'tuk sejenak
Usaplah dahiku dan kan kukatakan semua
Bila ku lelah, tetaplah disini
Jangan tinggalkan aku sendiri
Bila ku marah, biarkan ku bersandar
Jangan kau pergi untuk menghindar
Rasakan resahku dan buat aku tersenyum
Dengan canda tawamu, walaupun 'tuk sekejap
Kar'na hanya engkaulah yang sanggup meredakan aku
Kar'na engkaulah satu-satunya untukku
Dan pastikan kita s'lalu bersama
Kar'na dirimulah yang sanggup mengerti aku
Dalam susah ataupun senang
Dapatkah engkau s'lalu menjagaku?
Dan mampukah engkau mempertahankanku?
Bila ku lelah, tetaplah disini
Jangan tinggalkan aku sendiri
Bila ku marah, biarkan ku bersandar
Jangan kau pergi untuk menghindar
(Buat Aku Tersenyum by Sheila on 7)
