TODAY'S QUOTE:
"The supreme happiness of life is the conviction of being loved for yourself, or, more correctly, being loved in spite of yourself."... Victor Hugo
There isn't much glory in only loving the easy to adore. And there isn't all that much pleasure in being loved because its demanded by society per the placement of birth alone. Worst of all is to be little more than a habit someone preforms over and over by rote. Rote learning is programed by repetition. Just because we do the same action again and again doesn't give it more value. Fact is, some habits are extremely harmful.
Habitual emotions don't possess enough substance to keep flowing through anything but the thinnest of times. Get to any thickness, or add any sickness and the outcome is certain. Once used or abused it vanishes as completely as smoke in a stiff wind. The harder it blows, the faster it dissipates.
Very few of us can live a lifetime without being breezy enough to blow away any love without roots that travel soul deep. A robot could do as well as that. Sad really, how often we act robotic enough to be classified as heartless. Humans truly deserve a better love... given or received... than one that is simply habit formed.
It's a fact, we aren't always lovable. Hell, sometimes it's hard to even like ourselves all that much. Given enough time and practice most of us at least attempt to arrange ourselves in a fashion more easily admirable. And one of the things that makes this an easier task is a true love gifted when you least deserve it.
Love has many ingredients, and faith is one of its most invaluable components. When someone else has faith in your ability to alter any unlovable thing then half the battle is won. Whenver that certainty comes from your own soul... the war is almost done. Don't sell yourself short. Don't give or accept less than the real deal. Imitations won't stand the test of time. With luck the love you recieve in spite of yourself will be enough to last a lifetime long. Think about it... Let it ride... Then decide!!!
