seeing is believingdo we need to see to believe that there is love? or can our hearts do the feeling when the knots are tied? is there really a need to verbalise it? or does body language tell a million stories?
im thankful that God has given us feelings. there are moments of exhilaration, happiness, pain and sadness. through such emotions, we could relate to one another. some emotions are shortlived and temporal, while other feelings remain no matter how hard we try to runaway from it. the irony is: sometimes the worst feelings stay with us forever, but sweetest memories gone in seconds. more often than not, we choose to remember pain, whilst forget the nicest things in our lives. all in all, emotions do tricks and wonders to our daily routines. it paints our lives with rainbows. sometimes red and sometimes blue. without it, i think life's pretty much colourless or gray.
elmo's been around for months now. he's been taking time to add colours in my life. if we could calculate the amount of colours he added, then i'd say he had been trying to pour many pails of ink over my life. lots of red, yellow and orange, i'd say. he's been adding pretty colours. elmo told me yet again yesterday "gracie, you know i like you...i really do". i hesitated for awhile. perhaps it's over msn that he revealed his feelings once more and i don't trust it. how do i know if it's true love when one could type "i like you" to almost millions of girls with the same message. i replied, "if only i could see your eyes when you said those words". he knew what i meant.
do we really need to use our eyes when we find true love? yes! you can witness true love. you can see true love. you can find evidence of true love. i believe we all can! when love is put in action, you feel it with your soul and you see it with your eyes.
