….It’s true what they say that Love hurts

The intricacy of committing to it without expectation or agenda

The pain of rejection when you just want to support

The hurt of undeserved judgment when you just have pure intentions

The tragedy of envy from others when Love works for you

….In the face of pain and agony, why do I choose to Love?

When I can go the different way and leave them in their misery?

When it is easier not to care because they couldn’t care back?

When what you get in return is something you are not worthy of?

When all you’ve ever hoped for is for them to recognize that Love is the answer?

….Despite the difficulties, I choose to go back to Love

Where forgiveness sets me free

Where compassion becomes a cure for the pain and hurts

Where patience brings out hope for the troubles that it brings

Where tolerance and acceptance glues the indifferences…

…I trust in Love because everybody deserves to be

I trust in Love because there is so much pain already

I trust in Love because that’s the best I can give

I trust in Love because that’s the Greatest Power God has given us

I thrust with Love because it moves us to the Heavens that we deserve…

… So let us Love until it is Difficult NO more…

O’ Brother…

An older brother is in turmoil right now.. He is 33 years of age… Sad to realize that he has fallen in a feeling of betrayal again… I say again because this feeling started in his younger days… A trauma that is difficult to let go… And a recent situation has triggered him to fall back in the feeling of being victimized… But during these moments a lot of things will come as a surprise… Moments that will become opportunities for my brother and me… That at these points in our lives, a brother could indeed uplift a brother’s spirit… Within months of struggles and aches… Only an hour of lunch between brothers could ease the pain… With that hour of conversation, my brother is ready to face the world again… Prepared to triump and conquer his destiny and the abundance that he deserves… Ready to challenge his fears and slay the dragons in his mind… What propelled him to swing to the positive side at such a fast pace? I have come to realize that there are indeed a lot of changes to the present lives that we hold… In the norm, we would just ignore and pester each other up… And that, it is a sign of weakness to allow you to be beaten down by a situation… However this situation presented us a new fate… It showed me a chance to kindle a brotherhood that I’ve longed for… Where rivalries are put aside… And that just Love and Support could move brethren… That expressing Love is not at all corny as how we think it is… Instead Love could give Courage and Hope to the imminent future of our Lives…
