Why do I care?

Such a stupid and arrogant question, maybe that's why it never occured to me to find the answer until now.

It's time for me to lift the burden that I've subjected myself to all these while, a burden self-manifested from the constant desire of my heart to own the people I like.

I wanted to own their love, because I have always felt myself being deprived of it, deprived of the love from the people I desired most.

You know when you wanted something so much and so badly, you allow your whole mind and soul to be consumed by the desire to make it yours, and after a while you just forgot the reason why you wanted it in the first place.

Given enough time, eventually you'll be worn down, worn down by time and dissapointments only you yourself realise. And reason gradually starts to get through that thick layer of self-denial, and it suddenly hit you, why do you care when the fact is there is really nothing to care?

Everything is just in your mind, you put those desires there, you forced yourself to live by them without questioning why. At the end of the day, you realise you are but just a guest passing through their lives, a guest who has probably overstayed his welcome.

So move on please, by all means.

Why do we look for love, anyway? What do we want from love? What are we living to give for/to love, in return? Good question. You may need to find your own answers.

May you find what you're looking for...alternatively, may you figure out what you're looking for. :)

Gud lar. Finally Funeyag moves on. I wish him while moving along, found dat some1 special moving n mooing beside him.

Ermm gud question of wat mrbunnyban said. 2 me ppl look 4 love is bcus it binds u with some1 special n meant a lot 2 u. So love is a name given 4 dat purpose. Its not wat we wan from love but its rather from d individual. Perhaps d special bonding. 2 me, there shud be no asking 4 return of love. It must be given away freely. Its not a bargain or business.

Gheez suddenly im a love professor ... hehe :)
