I have decided to write on this line of
thought that I sometimes end up getting caught in. And that is, can we love two people at the same time??
There is no definite answer I can give you but I’ll take you
through my thoughts and you could conclude for yourself?!So lets
begin with defining LOVE..
Everyone agrees that love is a feeling… But we have always considered… falling in Love is with someone. Now I tell you... falling in love is with yourself!
Yes, you fall in love with yourself for something another
person shows about you!!!
You might come across this person who says, I love your eyes, your smile, your
helpful-nature, your cheerfulness… See, it was always about you! Something
about yourself that you did not give due respect to and was almost oblivious
to you… until… until this person brings it up and it becomes so special.
To put it in my uncle’s words, “The world around you looks amazing; you smile endlessly at flowers and walls alike; you see everything with love and delicacy; love is overflowing from your heart; you are in love with your own self; you might be grateful to the other person who has brought this up and made it evident that it is quite special to have; but at the end, my girl, you are in love with yourself not anyone else.”
So, if this is the source of the lovely feeling that we walk
around with, thinking you are in love with the person who said, “June, you are
a wonderful person. You have a smile that can light up a room and more
dramatically add, I want this smile to light my home, life and every morning I wish
to wake up to it. Will you be my wifey?”
Isn’t it surely possible to feel the same towards another
who would have said, “Wow! I always wanted this independent girl who can fend
for herself and be empathetic. I love the way you move around with others, ease
with which you make friends and how you put others first even before you!!”
If you happen to meet both these people almost during the
same time, you end up in a dilemma as to who you really like and ask whether is it possible
to fall in love with two people and start to bring into view ethics, character,
etc.
But the truth is, if you accept this line of thought that
you are infact in love with yourself and only grateful to the other person for
acknowledging your own traits, isn’t it possible that you could be grateful to
two people at the same time for different things they have shown about
yourself??!!
