~ Never hurt the heart that loves you... ~
10:19:00 pm
Quote of the day
Love the heart that hurts you,
but never hurt the heart that loves you.
Vipin Sharma
It is usually customary for me to place a quote at the end of my entries... Reasons being, they are for me to ponder over those wise, wisdom words or just a motivational purpose for me...
But this time round, they are at the top of my entry... Reason being, this quote actually jolts something in me...
How many times have you promised someone that you will never, ever hurt him or her? I'm sure you would have... Well, I didn't... Someone did... But I never took his words seriously... Why?
One reason: Promises have to be fulfilled... It's actually a Malay saying,
"Janji harus ditepati"... But most of the time, promises are NEVER fulfilled... But you know, we are all just humans... We are not perfect and we often make mistakes, whether you want to admit it or not...
That is why I don't really like the word
promise... It's just a word, and yet, it contains so much responsibility to it...
Anyway, back to the quote up there... The reason why this quote is so important to me is because, it teaches us to be tolerant in a relationship...
Unwittingly, we have often hurt the hearts of those whom we love... Sometimes, we do it on purpose... And sometimes, we don't realize it at all... But afterall, we are all humans and we do make mistakes...
If we do realize it, then it's good... Apologise to your loved one...
If we don't, it's best that you look back over something that you've done... Ponder over it... Think if there is something that is not right... Learn from it...
In my case, my special someone apologised to me... But I was just being egoistic, not to accept his apology... And I was sulking almost half of the time I was with him... And I even gave him a cold shoulder... But yet, he never left my side not even once... He just wanted to know if I was alright...
And it got me thinking... The way I behaved, it got him worried and I was making things difficult for him... Now what would it be if I were in his shoes? He was behaving the way like I was, and it would be so difficult to read what he was thinking... Aren't I hurting him too?
This is a common trait in human nature... When you are being hurt by someone, you would want the person to feel hurt too...
And I was wrong in thinking that way... I know that I've hurt him many times whether directly or indirectly, but he has never done the same to me... So why am I so cruel? *Sigh*...
Honestly, I felt and still feel bad... And all I can say is, I
promise will try to be a better girlfriend from now on... =)
