I think it's important that I express this next post to you. That is, if anyone is actually reading this... but if you are, thank you. I feel like we're told too rarely that life is for living. We need to get out there and seize any opportunity that we come across because it could potentially be our last chance. Our last chance to breathe, our last chance to live. It's hard to grasp, and I know that. To think about being alive and well one minute, and the next buried amongst those who also had that same thought process. The good die young, the naive die sudden; and we are all naive. Get out there and do something you would have never done yesterday. Call the person who means the most to you and tell them everything you've ever wanted to. Grab your family, friends, loved ones, and just believe that although tomorrow isn't promise, today can be the best day possible. Because you never truly know when someone you love, or even you yourself, will vanish from this earth with only faint memories left behind.
but is it really worth it to take the risk of telling someone something when you're not sure how they will react to the audacity? perhaps it isn't always worth it to do something like tell your best friend you're in love with him because maybe that will affect a friendship that was a dream. maybe, he won't ruin things between you but somehow, the friendship will irrevocably change them for the worse. you may tell me life is all about a little risk, but maybe the risk isn't worth it when the consequence endangers the present moment. even though you feel with your whole heart you can't take another second without coming clean, you have to if you don't want anything to end.
ReplyDeletein my opinion, yes. it is worth it. because if we're stuck in the mindset of worrying about the present moment we lose chances that we may never get back. our present moments quickly turn into our past memories and eventually fade away with time. if you, or anyone for that matter, has been holding something so severe as being in love with someone you are essentially placing a burden upon yourself, and the friendship that you're worried to infringe. because regardless of is he is aware, you love him, and things are not the same... he just doesn't know it yet. bottling everything up inside of you merely to protect something you hold dearly is a contradiction in itself because in being honest with yourself, you are lying to the both of you. this is just my opinion, and it's faintly hypocritical because i know how fragile hearts can be, and i most definitely know how fragile friendships can be. but the problem with the human race is fear, and although it's natural, it's something we should fight through. because you never know, he could be holding in feelings due to fear as well. i think you should go for it. tell him how you feel. that goes for anyone reading this. speak. words are powerful.
