Self Control & Tolerance For Others

Sometimes it is a habit to yell at someone once you are used to it. Sometimes, it is also a habit to wake up late once you are used to it. In everyone's life, there is always a few habits that are hard to change once you get used to it, but i do believe that habits are possible to be ridden of, be it good or bad. This is self control.

I am well known for being egoistic and very proud of myself. And i believe even till now, i still am. It takes time for me to change and i do feel that people around me should exercise self control and encourage me to change, reprimanding me if needed to. This is tolerance.

Tolerance for others is very important in intrapersonal relationships no matter where you are. Even if your intolerance for a person had became habitual, it is up to one's mental strength and spiritual power to overcome this habit.

The mind is very powerful, especially when it is engulfed by the fires of love. All imperfections seemed to be perfections, and all flaws seemed to disappear. All the painful, hurtful things are tolerated without thinking at all. Just by the snap of your fingers and hey, I had tolerated you.

But all these only happen when there is love.

I would like to correct her that yes, it was for 3 months that i had neglected her when i had a third party out there, but the decision i made about commiting to you for life took me a week.

You don't have to go into another relationship to see if you still love me or not. It would be a stupid move. I had went through it and i had regretted it tremendously. This is one of the things that will stay on with me as long as i live. You never know what can happen to you if you go into another relationship. By trying that out, you most probably will hurt that guy if he is serious about you when you realised that he is not the one.

I do agree that sometimes once you had made a decision, you shouldn't look back and should be happy with what you have presently. To me, i feel that it applies to small matters only. I do regret not doing some things but somehow, they were too minor for me to even think back of it.

Most importantly, never regret in life. This is definitely true. But only if one had put in enough efforts just to see that things still go wrong. Then there are no regrets. Maybe you can ask yourself if you had tried hard enough? I don't know.

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no records of wrongs. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always persevere."

~ Corinthians 14:13


Love never fails.

And everyday i am a better person. Because you made me see who I am.

I thank you for your boldness towards me.
