the calling

June 9, 2010

“I want you to touch me on the inside part and call me my name.” — Morrison, Toni. Beloved.

ultimately exists in every human being an innate desire, a yearning, to be understood and loved, as well as to understand and love. and this is where inter-human relationships come to play in the basis of human existence. relationships need affinity, shared empathy, some degree of intimacy, and have to be reciprocal. sometimes, even polar opposites can attract, because they show a different side of the world, yet are not so dissimilar after all. a relationship can be familial, romantic, a friendship, a working one, or even a shared moment with a stranger. inside everyone, there is a calling, looking to satisfy and be satisfied. listen to it. feel it.

the “3″ is still missing from “124″ but it is the one you try to put away that haunts and calls out the loudest. and the calling continues. affinity, empathy, intimacy, reciprocal.

    If 1234 is affinity, empathy, intimacy, reciprocal, when 3 is missing, the formation falls apart. It’s hard to put them back together again, and make it work. There is simply too much distance. When I used to think it’s romantic to conquer all as long as there is 124, I now realise that 3 cannot be denied and may be more important to most people than 124 combined. Few people will enter into relationships where one party is missing, where 3 is missing, no matter how solid 124 are.

    Everyone would want someone who will love them,understand them and trust them.
    No matter is similar interests or opposites attract,as long as the love is true,its all that matters.

    For someone i like,i will continue calling.

    Wonderful Entry!

    haha..when someone in ur heart is ”calling” u, hope that u’ll not be too distracted when u r doing serious stuff.
    Dangerous u know?

    Just take it easy. At ur own stride. Somethings are just not meant to be. And cannot be forced.

    Y nowadays most of ur posts r abt love. U r like a lovesick man. Orsino! haha…from Twelfth Night. U miss ur Olivia- Jesseca Liu right? (gives sympathetic face. O.o)

    Don’t tell me ur still emo-ing. hehe.

    P.S: I am so slack now. That’s y I’m here typing this. haha…chill. holidays~~ =)

    Yes, people yearns to be understood and loved.
    But we can’t always get what we want can we?
    There are always time where others refuse to give you a chance to understand or love you.
    These are fate, so just enjoy life=)

    More like Felicia he’s missing. if the 3 is missing and its calling and screaming, why not stop the calling n move on to someone else who can give the missing 3 to make it complete. don’t waste time on someone who’s not meant for u…

    what kind of barriers? can you break the barrier? but i believe there is no perfect relationship, sure there must be something missing. or maybe we just have not found the rite one???

    Affinity…. Some pple juz dun noe bout’ this “thing”. They dun buy the fact “IT” exists.Whereas some are firm believers.

    I believe tat besides
    affinity. How our heart really “feel” is of the utmost priority. Are we setting the right conditions so tat we are able to “receive” and “reciprocate” at the same time?…

    What happens if the one we yearn and long to hold, fail to “open” their heart?…

    Cheers,

    Somehow when I visit your blog, your posts always remind me about some parts of my life that I have chosen to put at the back of my head. I know I yearn for that closeness with the right guy but I choose to withhold that thought and ignore it for fear of finding the wrong one. I believe that there IS someone out there for me and I hope that we will all be able to find that special someone when the time is right.
