Crazy for Love & Fookys bday
Recently, i read an really inspiring article in Naked i, the magazine published by Campus Crusade. The article was titled " Crazy for Love" and in it, the writer talked about her quest for finding love and looking for the right one. Unfortunately, she always either met the wrong guy or fell for those who weren't interested in her. Just as she was about to give up and resign to feeling this way for the rest of her life when she realized that she was looking for love in all the wrong places.
This is the whole abstract from the article:
-----------------------------------------
A few years back , i was in Thailand, and a few of us took a truck up the mountains. At that time, i had just gradudated from university, boyfriend-less, and my future seemed so uncertain.
I stood on a ledge that overlooked the valley of Chiang mai, saw all the dots of cars on the roads and even tiner specks of heads walking along the streets. Suddenly, i sensed him telling me " i care for each and everyone of these millions that you can see , and so many more that you can't see- just like i care for you. I know what your life will be like, and the joys and pain you will go through. i know how much you need to be loved, and i am here for you. Trust me. Let me love you " .
His love was there all along- i just never quite understood it. He loves and accepts me, even with all my imperfections and insecurities. I can't understand why he loves me so, when i truly don't deserve it, but he just does.
Some days, i must confess, i forget about him, and get caught up in my usual feelings of feeling unwanted and unloved. But he always waits for me to remember that i have him in my life and he's going nowhere.
He completes me.
---------------------------------------
After reading this article, i just felt overwhemled with gratefullness. Because, for a very long time now, i have actually had the greatest love of all, but i was just too distracted to realise it.
