It is a mystery why we fall in love. It is a mystery how it happens. It is a mystery why some love grows & it is a mystery why some love fail. You can analyze & look for some reasons & causes, but you will never do anymore than take life out of the experience. Love is more than the sum of interest & attraction & commonalities that two people share. And just as life itself is a gift that comes & goes in its time. Becoming love must be taken as an unfathomable gift that cannot be questioned in its way. Too often, when love comes to people, they try to grasp the love & hold it to them, refusing to see that it is a gift freely given & a gift that just as freely moves away. When they fall out of love or the person they love feels the spirit of love leaving, they try desperately to reclaim the love that is lost rather than accepting the gift for what it was. They want answer, there were no answer. They want to know what is wrong with them or they try to get their love to change thinking that if some small things were different, love would bloom again. They blame their circumstances. They blame each other. They try anything to give meaning behind the love itself, & until they accept its own mysterious ways, they live in a sea of mystery. You need to treat what love brings you with kindness. If, you find yourself in love with someone who does not love, be gentle with yourself, there is nothing wrong with you. Love just didn’t choose to rest in the other person’s heart. If you find someone else in love with you, towards whom you feel no love, feel honored that love come & called at your door, but gently refuse the gift you cannot return. Do not take advantage. Do not cause pain. How you deal with love is how love deals with you, and wall our hearts feel the same pains & joys, even if our life & ways are very different. “If you fall in love with other who falls in love with you, & then love chooses to leave, do not try to reclaim it or to assess blame. Let it go. There is a reason & there is a meaning. You will know it in time, but time itself will choose the moment.” Remember this, keep it in your heart. You don’t choose love, love chooses you. All you can really do is accept it for all its mystery when it comes in to your life. Feel the way it feels you to overflowing, then reach out & give it away. Give it back to the person who brought it you. Give around you in any way you can. Love has it’s own season & reason for coming & going. You cannot bribe it or coarse it, or reason it into staying. If it chooses to leave from your heart or from the heart of your lover, there is nothing you can do & nothing you should do. Be glad that it comes to live for a moment in your life. If you keep your heart open, it will surely come again.
