Thoughts yet again
Today i wrote a facebook status, saying that if you leave a footprint in the sand, it might get washed away by the waves, but if u place a stone there, it might get buried under the sand, but it'll always be there.
Jonathan argued that the stone will eventually get crushed by the waves.
Initially i was like o.O memories dont get wiped out easily. Stones stay there for millions of years.
But then i start thinking,
what does stones become when they get crushed?
Events in a relationship are like the big stones on the sand. Footprints are the daily messages, and things like that. Waves is how you handle it.
Messages dont matter. It gets forgotten very soon. Telling someone how much u love him/her everyday isnt anything. It's the big events that make the seashore the beautiful shore it is. Without the stones, there wont be sand, there wont be memories. Good things are like small pebbles, bad things are like big rocks. Even though big chunk of rocks here and there doesnt make a perfect seashore, it still makes a nice view isnt it? Hard edges get smoothened out, and soon it'll be smooth to touch, loved by tourists, they sit on them too.
Isnt it better if you always look at the bigger picture? Why pick on 1 bad stone, when you have a whole seashore of nice memories to look at?
I have been angry, but now that i look at the big picture, it's still beautiful. Time may be required, but eventually it'll work out.
I still love the seashore, i love it's hidden treasures, awaiting me to find out. Anything can be under those sand. May it be good or bad, I'm readying myself to accept it as it is.
Many loves to you, if you're read this.
