Love one another
Monday, August 22, 2005
really felt that this phrase really touched my heart. we're called to love one another.
in this imperfect world, people tend to love and adore those who are pretty and handsome, and tend to neglect and ignore those who are not so. i felt that this is so sad, so shallow. is looks more important than anything else? why looks are so important? how will you rate a person when he/ she is so gorgeous and he/she is so lousy in their character?
these few days, the city has been talking about some topics. one of the topic that really concerns me is about 'project superstar'. why can't a person without a full package become a superstar? does he have a choice to choose how he look like? why can't he show off what he's really good at? is looks all you're looking for? why he can't have a right to persue what he really wants? why you guys want to pass him the verdict that he'll not survive in the entertainment world even way before he starts to sing the first note? why you guys are so cruel, trying to rob away his dream?
i felt very depressed when there are some people being neglected, delibrately. why can't he/she have a right to have friends because he/she look different from others?
'oh.. having talents is not enough, you need to have a full package.. ' that's what i heard from people when they talked about the 'project superstar' event.
for me, i felt that, what most important, is not looks. no doubt, if you have good looks, you'll save alot of troubles to try to get yourself being accepted in the community. but is looks really that important? to me, although looks are important, but that will not contribute to the 'life and death' of a person. what i meant is that although looks are important, but what people will see, ultimately, is your character. no matter how pretty or handsome you are, when time goes by, flaws starts to show up.. and your looks won't save you from the fact that you are a lousy person. if you have a bad character, no matter how good looking you're, you'll not be able to be in the limelight for long.
what most important is the heart..
choose to love everyone around you. think about it, if you felt that you're pretty or handsome now, what about 10 years down the road? or 20 years? what will you become when your youthful looks was replaced by winkles? or will you choose to dump your partner if they are not as beautiful as you first knew him/her? will it be sad? if you're the one who are being dump by those people who think that looks are all that matters?
what most important is you, on the inside..
maybe you might think that, 'how can i love a person if he/she is so ugly? i don't have time to love, or even to become friends with a freak?!'
how will you feel if you're the 'freak' in someone else's eyes?
all of us have our own flaws, we're not here to condemn people.. we have no rights to do so either.
we're not here to feel jealous of other people's talents also.. be happy with yourself. don't just focus on your own flaws.. you are beautiful in God's eyes.. cause God don't see you how man do, He sees you as who you are, He sees your heart..
even if nobody in this world loves me, i know that my Heavenly Father still continues to love me as who i am. He don't love me because i look beautiful. He loves me because i AM beautiful, cause i am one of His wonderful creation.. :)
so choose to be happy and move on if you felt that nobody in this world loves you. God still loves you..
all of us are made in the world for a purpose, it is to be a blessing in the lives of others.. so don't make other people's life miserable ya?
choose to love one another, the way you love yourself.. although it seems difficult at first.. but when you choose to step into this new phrase, you'll find yourself experiencing a totally new you.
but if you find it is difficult for you to change overnight, at least, now, what you can do is to try to reconcile whatever spoiled relationships around you, make it good. take a step at a time. i have made a decision to make my life anew long time ago.. to love others as much as possible.. although i couldn't declare that i have perfected it.. but i'm moving towards it.. i know that one day, i can do it..
and since then.. i never regret.. and i know i will never will.. cause where love is, there's liberty.. hearts are being set free when there is love.. hearts start to melt where there is a presence of love.. and hearts start to perish if they feel no love..
seek life, and give life.. love people as who they are..
