WHAT'S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT? 2
Continuation of what’s love got to do with it 1
Some people opined that there are so many obstacles that prevent people in love to
express their love for each other fully and unhindered, others retorted that if it is true love
there ought to be no hindrance, in their opinion the society has no right to make rules as
to who one should or should not fall in love with.
People have sang and written about someone who promised that he would climb the
highest mountains and swim the deepest sea just to be with the one he loves. There is a
song that says “ain’t no mountain high enough, ain’t no valley low enough, ain’t no river
wide enough, to keep me from getting to you babe” in other words even where there are
obstacles we’re supposed to go around, above, over them to get to the one with love.
That’s quite ok with songs and movies, in reality however some obstacles have the
potency of making nonsense of love. Some people however disagreed, to them, if it is
love nothing can stand in its way. Let’s look views concurrently.
To people who belief there could be obstacles in the way of love, some other
responsibilities could prevent one from exploring the possibilities of love fully.
Two people in love might not be able to realize their dreams of being together and share
happiness ever after because one or both of them have kids that are creating problems or
tension in the relationship. We cannot pretend that this sort of situation does not exist
between lovers.
It is general knowledge that kids, like everyone else demand and crave attention and
could be jealous when they feel they are not getting as much attention as they are used to
getting because mummy/daddy is now showering all her/his attention and affection on
another individual in the name of love. Even between themselves children want to
monopolize the parent’s affection. It is factual too that some men/women do get jealous
when their partner has to spend sometime with the kids even when the kids are theirs.
This demand for attention and affection could lead to tension, and on some occasion, to
some ugly incidents. This might constitute obstacle to the happiness of two people in
love.
Parties who do not see the above as an obstacle in the way of love contends that if the
above is right then there was no love between the parties in the first instance.
Loving is sharing and if you have love in your heart your kids would have inherited it or
learn from you how to love and share.
Kids learn from their parents and more often than not virtues and vices exhibited by kids
are passed down from their parents. 90% or probably 99% of children whose parents
practice a particular religion would end up practicing that religion. The same percentage
give or take will share the same value, beliefs, sentiments, and prejudices as their
parents or more appropriately with the parents that they lived with or one that makes the
most impression on them in terms of lessons of life.
If a parent had taught his/her kids to love and to share and to respect and all what not,
those kids, if such a parent found someone he/she wants to spend his/her life with, will
be supportive rather than being impediments to the happiness of the parent.
If two people are in love and plan to share their life with each other they must love
everyone and everything that surround the person they love.
Loving someone is tantamount to wanting to see them happy which means you share the
love you have for them with people they love unless every time you tried you are rebuffed
and it is not practicable to bring such people around such as when people have made up
their minds not to accept someone no matter how hard he/she tries because of one
prejudice or the other. It does not necessarily have to be the end of the relationship; you
could still have your love if you can compromise. This has to be worked out between the
lovers. A lover should not force an uncompromising in law on the other person, if he/she
would not be accepted by the family they can still go ahead and love each other because
nobody needs anybody’s approval to love.
If you love someone it is your duty to let those in your life know how much you love that
person and how important and special that person is to you and how happy he/she
makes you feel. If they love and respect you and your feelings in the first instance they
wouldn’t do anything that will cause you pains. If they break up your relationship with this
person that you consider special to you, that would be inconsiderate, selfish, cruel and
wicked. If they want your happiness they wouldn’t do anything that is capable of breaking
up a relationship that brings your happiness. People have been known to say stuff like
“only God knows what he/ she found in him/her”. One may not approve of someone a
member of one’s family is dating but we should give them the benefit of doubt and keep
our opinions to ourselves, their happiness rather than their choice of partner is what
should concern us, if it was a mistake we probably made ours too in the past and
probably would still make more in the future.
If it is love family, friends et al cannot constitute impediments to one’s relationship.
Distance and relocation are two things that walk sometimes hand in hand that are
obstacles to love, after all, it is said that out of sight is out of mind.
Distance could come into play where two people having met have to part because one of
them has to leave to pursue a dream/goal. Since the world is now a global village, it could
be people who met and fell in love with each other over the Internet. Relocation is where a
party is moving from location A to B and the other person for some reason did not follow.
Relocation could be from one town to the other, one state to another or across the world
such as from one continent to the other.
People have been known to do a U turn on promises earlier made as to sticking together
if there was need to move. When it’s time to relocate with someone they claim they love
they come up with excuses mostly relating to family, job, friends etc.
Is it reasonable to ask someone to leave the known for the unknown? Is it reasonable to
ask someone to leave a well paying job when they are not sure of what awaits them at a
new location? Is it fair to make someone juggle the lives of his/her kids around just so
one could be with a lover? Is it reasonable and fair to leave everything and everyone that
means something to one behind in order to be with a lover? Answering the above answer
in the positive is not only foolish but also selfish and total disregard for the lives and
feelings of other people that might be touched by one’s actions. So, relocating and
distance could be an impediment to love.
Where your treasure is, there will your heart be, out of sight is out of mind is not the only
saying with regard to distance, it depends on how you feel about the person you are
leaving behind for it is also said that distance makes the heart grow fonder. When two
people are in love they become one, they complete each other. Their dreams just like
their lives merge and the one without the other will be incomplete. There should be no
conflict about being together where one party needs to move. Love brings harmony and if
two people are in love their lives become harmonized.
If there’s such a character named Satan, then there’s no doubt that he has taken over the
earth. Even the bible agrees with this assertion when it says that believers are not of this
world. There are so many quotations in the bible in this regard and probably in other
religions. After all when Jesus was to be tempted Satan did not promise him heaven, you
can’t give what you don’t have, he sure did promise him earth so we all know who owns
this place we’re living in. In those days when the saying that good name is better than
silver and gold was not a stupid saying, love exists and people do things in accordance
with their conscience and the good of the family rather than the pay check.
The love of money is more important than all else in the world. If you would not leave a job
for love what will you do if you were terminated, the company goes bankrupt, or you’re laid
off? Jobs may be replaced; a love lost may never be regained. Where there’s love things
should be worked out rather than let things work us out. Where love exists, all things are
taken into consideration and decisions are reached based on what is beneficial to both
parties rather than one of them.
Most religions, in theory, preach love and tolerance but that is all it is, theory, in practice
religious people seldom show love and tolerance so religion could be an obstacle in the
way of love.
