Both Boy A & Boy B has loved only one girl, the same girl. Boy A & Boy B clearly has been faithful for the same girl for years already (which only proves how much they love her) without her knowing. But unfortunately, when the time came for Boy A & Boy B to let their feelings out of their system, both got turned down by the girl (note: politely & with respect). Both stranded in the same situation, Boy A got FURIOUS! He couldn’t believe that after long years of loving her, he was turned down effortlessly. He cursed the girl to hell and promised himself to never see her again or at least communicate with her. On the other hand, Boy B, felt disheartened (of course) but instantly shoved the pessimistic side of his. Not even once has he cursed the girl. And instead of losing all means of communication, he earnestly told the girl that it doesn’t matter if she couldn’t give the love he has longed for. What matters to him is despite the situation, he will still love her unconditionally.
...Did the girl give him the chance? That I do not know.
This was the example given to us by our Philo teacher. This shows us that Boy A’s approach in the situation was purely childish and that he needs to GROW-UP first. In someway, he was being utterly self-centered, egotistical in a sense. On the other hand, Boy B was man enough to accept the situation and that because he loved her, nothing can stop him from loving her on and on...
They say we humans have 4 NOBLE MOTIVES in life. And that is to live, to learn, to serve and to love. All four are balance, universal and non-negotiable.
The one primary greatness is to love, to show and give love for others. To be loved is only a secondary greatness and it is a gift.
You cannot determine or choose who should love you in return. Thus, if you are being loved, treasure it, feel blessed because it is a gift. But if that person cannot give you the love you have wanted or asked for, don’t whine about it and act like a baby. Be man enough, stop being immature and GROW-UP!
This not only applies to love, it is relevant, but when you get stucked up whatever the circumstance: approach it the mature way!
