REALITY MATTERS MOSTLove doesn’t make blind, but the heart is just willing to see less. That is so true. You see what somebody does, you know how bad character traits the person has, but because you love that one, you just don’t want to accept it. That’s not being blind, that’s being devoted or just plain stupid.
No matter what, the truth, reality matters most.
If you long for someone so bad, but they aren’t worth it, leave it. This is the case where you can’t only follow your heart.
If you want to stay strong, be a strong person, let yourself be lead by reality instead of fantasies, feelings. A person needs a heart, a person needs love. Being heartless is not being strong, it’s being afraid. Afraid of feelings, afraid that you can’t fight it.
Emotions are very tough to control, especially when it’s a fight against reality. But knowing how to feel and love and meanwhile knowing when to listen to reality is strength.
Controlling emotions 100% is impossible, but a 50-50 share with reality is good enough. You got to know when to feel and know when to be realistic.
I know people shouldn’t be afraid of feelings, shouldn’t be afraid to show them, but some persons aren’t worth those feelings. Sometimes, some feelings aren’t really true, not in the right place on the right time for the right person.
That’s the whole trick. You got to know when feelings are true and when feelings are desires and fantasies which need to be erased by reality.
So, you got to be able to see. Don’t let feelings fool you, blind you, so that you can’t always see what’s happening around you, what reality says. So that you won’t end up in depression, despair and sorrow because you let yourself be dragged.
Don’t put on any glasses, because the sun shining in your eyes is painful, but it’s reality. Ugly brown walls aren’t as pretty as pink, but it’s reality. Above all, it’s reality.
