Mask of Ice

“For the warrior of light there is no such thing as an impossible love. He is not intimidated by silence, indifference or rejection. He knows that behind the mask of ice that people wear, there beats a heart of fire. Without love he is nothing.” –  The Manual of the Warrior of Light by Paulo Coelho

I always believe that love is a weird accident made up of unexplainable phenomenon and circumstances that playfully interspersed with people’s daily life resulting to emotional euphoria. Falling in love is never planned, unlike studies and career. It simply happens.

Most of the time, love catches me off guard and gives me unexpected results which I openly embrace with all my heart and face with courage. As a warrior of light (a title which I learned to accept due to the indirect prodding of my idol Paulo Coelho) I learned to be honest with myself and never got intimidated by the responses for I do believe that behind the mask of ice that people wear there beats a heart of fire. You will simply feel that love is there despite its inconsistency with the physical and the visible. No explanations needed. Sometimes, words can actually make it lose its luster. After all, love is felt never seen or heard.

And it is sweet to be loved despite the insurmountable barriers. I glow with the thought that our hearts just keep on beating for each other even in the midst of trials and tribulations.

Once you believe that there is no such thing as an impossible love, you will experience a love so incomparable, memorable and unforgettable…

and when it’s meant to be, the universe will conspire and break distance, time and circumstances. It will, it does.

It is the space in between words that makes us understand a sentence. It is the silence when we talk that gives depth to our words. Sometimes the space and silence make us feel sad because we feel that they tear us apart from our happiness, we sometimes forget that we need to feel sadness for us to deeply appreciate happiness.

In a relationship, it is when we reach a void that we start to see: the value of our beloved, the importance of our togetherness and what it means to be 2 bodies but one soul.
