Love works

I believe that love works in mysterious ways. Whether it’s through friendships and relationships, loss of love, or just simply through new love of whatever flows into our lives.

There was a time, not so long ago I witnessed a very interesting hate love relationship. Where one of my friends disliked another one of my friends for unknown reasons. The other one soon found out and being the little young kids we were, started to make rumors about each other. This whole conflict continued for almost the whole school year, neither of them didn’t seem like they would stop anytime soon. But with limited help of myself my friends became friends and eventually into a relationship. They are still together to this day and it’s still funny to look back and remember how much they claimed they hated each other. This situation had little to nothing to deal with me but just being around and experiencing what my friends experienced put me into a different mindset. It let me realize that love works in mysterious ways and maybe the whole fight happened just to be resolved in the end. I look back on this a lot and just tell myself YOLO (you only live once) and with that, I never double guess or think about things. Because if it’s meant to be then somehow and someday it should make its way back to me or to some other source of happiness.

In the end I will not stress so much about things. I will become more confident In myself and my life. Because I know that everything happens for a reason and there is a plan for everyone. I’ve learned that pain brings negative energy and stress. I will live everyday to be happy and fulfill my desires. And of course some days will be hard. I will feel like I want to give up on everything. But I will look back, and realize what I know and what I’ve been through. And if I’ve been through so much why can’t I go through so much more. I can go through so much more because each time I will get stronger and wiser. I will understand certain situations and why it happened. I will communicate with myself and outlook all my options. I will never give up. And finally I will learn to love the things I hate and hate the things I love. Because I will never know which is which.
