question bends towards spiritual aspect of Love: The moment when
you start to question Love why and not direct this question towards
a person - it becomes spiritual in nature.
We all begin life with vast inadequacy in Love because life is
about learning Love in our own ways. If Love is a subject, all of
us would have strength and weakness in different topic within the
subject. The people whom we are bound to meet this lifetime
presented lessons to 'tutor' us in Love aspects where we are weak
in.
In face of Love, we all become emotionally naked. There is neither
screen nor mask we often wear to the world. The lessons that Love
brings would 'feel' hurtful because the shield we wield against
strangers has vanished. We become vulnerable... like a child.
The naive often find themselves cheated.
The passive often find regrets.
The flirt often missed the good person.
And the list goes on.
The appearance of this particular person... our current cosmic
lesson... is what people deemed as fate. But fate (being appearance
of a particular person) has a double edge thingy to it: some
relationships are karmic by nature. Karmic relationship are
challenging relationship place to test our knowledge of Love and
how we handle them. Chances are, karmic relationship will try to
degenerate us. Don't ask me why some people always have karmic
relationship - I can only tell you these certain group of people
are likely to have abuse, misuse or have been cruel in Love in
previous incarnation.
This is a
constant.
Worsen by (this lifetime) personality, character traits and
decision made.
These are
variables.
And if enlightenment is gain (sometimes is merely time factor) -
what that has previously served to degenerate us will build us
instead. You know when you play those role playing games and when
you encounter difficult monsters - these creatures somewhat have
higher experience points. If we gain enough experience points, we
level up... and become stronger than before.
Freewill is almighty in Love because the decision we made is
actually freewill - it is within your span of control. [b]You may not decide who you are
going to meet this lifetime, but certainly, you have the choice if
you want accept them into your learning
cycle.
A man may have decided to try for the matchmaking services - but
does he has control over the people whom he will meet? Not exactly.
But, as again, he has a choice over the people whom he deemed as
potentials to see if a relationship is possible between them.
A closed heart - even with all 'best fate', 'best people'... will
fail if the freewill decision is to say no.
Which is more powerful?
You decide.
