A Foolish Donkey

Have you ever wondered why God brought us the wrong people to fall in love with? Not in a way that you want to meddle with God's plan or something, it's just that sometimes, well, maybe most of your times you just feel tired of that endless cycle. 

If you ask someone who already found their soulmate, the most common answer is; so you can learn from your mistakes. 

Agree, though I find that answer isn't entirely true. 

I'm not an expert on love since I haven't found someone who I dare to call her "mine". But should we already learn from our mistakes since the day with fall in love with our first "failed" love? 

They said only a donkey trips on the same hole twice. But then again, who are we to forbid ourselves to fall in love with another person even when we know that that person is the wrong person to love?

Yeah, I know it's sound cheesy but some people deserves to be a donkey. 

Including me. 

A friend of mine once told me that I should ask these questions to myself if I meet someone who I think is going to be my right one:

"Ask yourself why you want her. Is it because her as she is? Or because is blah blah blah..? If because she is blah blah and blah, then just forget her" 

Her word got me thinking.

"And if you want her as she is, there are other questions you should ask yourself: 

Can you be the right person for her?
Can you stand on her right side if anyone judge her?

Can you lower your ego and stand on your own if she thinks that she's better than you?

Can you bear all the pain to face all of those consequences?"

A long pause from me justifies her words.  

Even though mutual love requires two ways of understanding, but you should be ready when one or all of those questions pop in your life. 

If not, then never hope for more than you work for. 

Come to think again, there's no such thing as a wrong people to love. Everybody deserves to be loved. 

But if you're looking for true love then forget it. You can't find true love. You just have to simply make and work hard for it.   
Falling in love is a temporary feeling. Only commitment to a mutual understanding with a life-long patience that can make it eternal. 

You also should consider if that someone seriously wants to be part of your life, they will seriously make an effort to be in it. 

No reasons.

No excuses. 

No one is always busy. It just depends on what number you are on their priority list. 

And when you look back on your life, you need to realize that every time you thought you were being rejected from something good, you were actually being re-directed to something better. 

Your past is just a story. And once you realize this, it has no power over you.

So donkeys, are you ready to become a human again?
