Live With Your LOVE, Don’t Kill It



See what you lost when you left this world, this sweet old world;
The breath from your own lips,
the touch of fingertips;
Someone calling your name;
Didn’t you think you were worth anything?

~ Sweet Old World, Lucinda Williams.

Just finished reading an article and found that in USA, one person (preferably man) killed himself in every 17 minutes, on the Valentines’ Day.

For a moment, I stopped and started thinking: “Why we can’t get all the people together in the world that we really like and then just stay together?”

Yes, we need more “hellos.”

But it always doesn’t work. Someone always leaves. And yeah, when somebody leaves it makes a hole in our heart. We find new people, pain stops but the gap never closes. How could it be? The hole in your heart is in the shape of that special person and no-one else can fit it – no one!

But suicide?

Maybe suicide can save us permanently from the pain but having pain isn’t a temporary problem – isn’t? What is suicide? Suicide is simply telling God, “No God, you can’t fire me – I’m quitting.”

Dear, when you love better make sure that you are open to the possibility of getting hurt for. When you love you risk the chance of letting go of the person. And when you let go, it’s just another way of saying, “I love you” to that person because you are allowing him to be happier to the other.

Love isn’t giving own life to show, “Look dear, I love you more than my life,” because it doesn’t shower any blessing to that person. If you kill yourself it means you also kill your love permanently for that person. So don’t kill your life, save it – so that you can save your love for her too.

Paste a smile on your lips and let her go with a shining farewell. If someday you get lucky to meet each other, you can show her, “Hey honey, look, still I’m alive because I didn’t bury my love for you – I didn’t bury it; I kept it locked in my heart.”

And then she’ll think, “Oh my God, still he loves me – oh my God!”

Come on; give your love a challenge not to be forgotten by her – come on! Live your life; live your love and make that person to remember your name. Otherwise, you’ll give your life for her but she’d rarely remember your name which is more painful.

    Thanks Roy for such an inspirational post.!! Committing suicide is not justifiable at all…. but u know sometimes it becomes too tough to “keep it locked in the heart.” and death takes us in a state where we are no more able to feel the pangs of “not being remembered” … perhaps that’s the reason why people take this wrong step.

    I think one should think about the purpose of his/her being… love is a part of life not the life itself… friendship, responsibility, fraternity too have their shares in our life; one can not just escape from all these for being jilted in love

    Thanks Moon.

    I’d again say: The pang of not being remembered is a temporary problem.

    But looking for death to avoid it is a permanent solution.

    The best way go beyond any adversity is to live with it and turn its upside down.

    Yes, it’s true:

    “love is a part of life not the life itself”

    Lotsa light.
