Love is a Matter Of Choice

It's not everyday we find a person who knows how to share the True Meaning of Love, People come and go in our lives, most of them are just acquaintances, some we get to know, a few stays in our life who become our friends, and through our life's journey we eventually find that one person whom you feel so connected deep into your self and occupies the very special place in your heart permanently- we call it our Lifetime Partner.

Many ask the question, When will I find the Right Person? I want To share this piece which was sent to me by one of my dear friend. This was also sent to her by a friend. Nobody knows who wrote it. But i tell you the person who wrote this poem nailed it.The message is straight and simple...it touches my heart and the message runs deep in my soul. Here it is...

"Love, Chance and Choice"

When we meet the right person to love when we're at the right place at the right time,

that's chance.

When you meet someone you're attracted to, that's not a choice.

That's chance.

Being caught up in a moment (and there's a lot of couples who get together because of this) is not a choice. That's also a chance.

The difference is what happens afterwards.

When will you take that infatuation, that crush, that mind-blowing attraction to the next level?

That's when all sanity goes back,

you sit down and contemplate whether you want to make this into a concrete relationship or just a fling.

If you decide to love a person, even with his faults, that's not a chance.

That's choice.

When you choose to be with a person, no matter what,

that's choice.

Even if you know there are many people out there who are more attractive, smarter, and richer than your mate, and yet, you decide to love your mate just the same,

that's choice.

Infatuation, crushes, attraction comes to us by chance.

But true love that lasts is truly a choice.

A choice that we make.

Regarding soul mates, there's a beautiful movie quote that I believe is true:

" Fate brings you together, but it's still up to you to make it happen."

I do believe that soul mates do exist.
That there is truly someone made for you.

But it's still up to you to make the choice if you're going to do something about it or not.We may meet our soul mates by chance, but loving and staying with our soul mates is still a choice we have to make.

We came to the world not by finding someone perfect to love... BUT.. to learn how to love an imperfect person perfectly... 

Conclusion: it is not the matter how to find someone perfect to love,
but how to love someone imperfect perfectly .....

Love itself is a choice.

I enjoy reading this piece, whoever wrote it, I'm so thankful. It is true. Love is a choice we make. Love in its' true essence doesn't find fault, it finds the Best out of the person you love. My mate once wrote me a letter and he said....I am not that good at expressing my feelings towards you in words. I hope someday i can tell you everything i feel about you and how much you inspire me. Just know that you have a big place in my heart even if i don't say it much. Oh well that was one of his short messages but i know for sure that he really mean it. To hear "I Love You "from the person you love is so precious, it brings so much happiness. It is magical. My mate chooses to say the three magic words in different ways. I love it. I hope you too enjoy reading the poem "Love, Chance and Choice" it is an eye opener.
