Unconditional love
I am gonna be so so dead in office later. Tried sleeping at 3am, tossed and turned like no one's business till 6+ in the morning. I just couldn't sleep, the cause might be the wine. Hmm, come to think of it...When was the last time I woke up so early?
My clear mind set me thinking about the conversation I had with a fren. What is it that I want in my life? Who are the people I allow myself to be close with? What types of friends are influencing your life? He reminded me that 26 years already gone, I ain't that young anymore. Shouldn't I be thinking what I really want in my life now and in the future? I am giving it some thoughts.
I truly cherish every friendship that comes along the way, each brings different experiences and feelings. But I was pretty upset with an extremely close friend of mine, her attitude towards our friendship. Why am I disturb by this? When this wasn't an issue to her at all. May be I have become the substitute to her nice boyfriend, just being too nice to her (as commented by a fren). I know I will always be there for her when she needs me, but will it be the same if I need her. May be not. She is a Channel 5 person and I cannot do anything about that.
I realised I cannot change her to be someone she is not but to accept her as she is. This is what unconditional love is all about. :)

Unconditional acceptance doesn't mean you lose yourself in the midst of trying to accept everyone around you.
Loving someone means we do things for them when its of benefit to them. It doesn't mean we're oblidged to fulfil their every whim and fancy. And I guess so it is with friends who disappoint us when they don't reciprocate with the same degree of commitment as what we offer them.
We continue to offer them the kind of friendship we believe in, but we learn also to move on in our lives, and not them become burdens that drag us down.
