What are you waiting for

When you love the people in your life, let them know.  Hug them, kiss them do something special for them, and let them know that they mean the world to you.  If you love someone with whom you are angry, let it go.  Life is short.  We are only here for a while and then we have to move on.  So when you are arguing over small stuff or big stuff, what difference does it make?  Find a way to talk about it, work through it and then Let it go.  There is no better time than right this moment to reach for the phone and call to say hello, I miss you, or can we talk or I'm sorry.  If you are lucky enough to have love in your life from someone then keep the lines of communication open. 

Does pride keep you from reaching out?  Do hurt feelings keep you from the people you love.  What on earth for?  You may say, "Ah but you don't know my situation".  Well I say to you, "try to look at it from a different perspective.  If your friend were having the same thing happen to them, what would you advise them?  I bet it would be completely different than what you would do in your own shoes. 

The reason for that is that sometimes we are so close to the situation or our feelings are so close to the surface, that we can't think of the the good things, the good memories, the warmth, love and support the other person gave us.  Sometimes, we can't see the things that go on in the background, behind closed doors.  Sometimes, we judge and assume things that are just not so.  Nothing on earth would ever make me want to let go of the people I love.  I would always want to reach out, and confront the issue with love and kindness.  I would always want to see their side of things, and I would always want them to know that I love them and they are important to me.  If however, they cannot come and meet me halfway, then I will love them and let them do what they need to do.   So what are  you waiting for?  It's all about love.
