Light The Way

Someone once said, ~It's okay to be a glowstick; sometimes we need to break before we shine.~ Without a doubt, when it comes to matters of the heart in regards to heartbreak or love/true love it can in a sense like being compared to how a glow stick is able to be illuminated just by breaking then shaking it, which leaves you eagerly waiting for the results. The sheer simplicity of 2 different and unrelated concepts of comparison that are by far totally out there is not hopefully or completely lost if one doesn't overthink it too much. Yet, it's truly a thought provoking situation indeed concerning the concept that the human heart and a glowstick coincide with each other in such a way the results can most definitely be quite illuminating, in a manner of speaking.

As I said before, when it comes to matters of the heart in regards to heartbreak and/or love/true love it can in a sense be compared to how a glow stick is able to be illuminated just by breaking then shaking it. Thinking about it further, when you're living the single life every potential guy/girl one meets there is an initial break to the glow stick that is our own heart. True, it may take a while before there are any clear signs whatsoever of a potentially glowing connection as there first needs to be in all intents and purposes a shake up that's more mental and emotional rather than one that's considered to be physical. What it primarily comes down to is not knowing who'll break your heart to experience the glow of true happiness or end up just plain brokenhearted.

If you think about it, there are times when the glow of true happiness suddenly starts to fade leaving the glow stick representing an individual's heart to aggressively shake it. Why? I think it's safe to say a person who doesn't want their love or relationship for that matter to die out, so to speak causing one to take aggressively desperate measures to keep it alive. Trust, faith, honesty, honor, respect, intimacy, understanding, communication, commitment, etc. are just part of the chemical reaction that when broken work together to build a strong, worthwhile glowing relationship. Unfortunately, if there is a tremendous lack of chemicals reacting that's been previously mentioned then there's no amount of forced manipulation that will work no matter how hard you try to shake it.

Let me ask this question to those who have played with or used a glow stick before, did you know that temperature can have a positive or negative affect on whether or not it actually glows? Essentially, cold and heat have a detrimental effect on how fast or slow it glows brighter. Of course, it certainly correlates with relationships that are filled with endless heat that never runs cold whereas for others it starts out hot but ends up icing out. In other words, it's all about being able to see/listen/feel as to whether the temperature of a guy/girl's thoughts, feelings, and/or emotions are actually glowing for real instead of completely faking it for their own sickness, as well as twisted pleasure. Essentially, don't be caught up by the fast glow of love that you become blind to it.

Anthony D. Williams said, ~Shine your light on love and truth and your soul will glow." Introspect, unlike a glowstick, a love that is genuinely unselfish and lets their best friend for life shine doesn't have shelf life. You see, there's no need to worry if the chemicals representing how you're thinking and feeling aren't tainted in such a way you hope for a positive reaction. A reaction in which you're able to freely shake up for yourself the contents of your mind, body, and soul to see a glow that hopefully doesn't end up blinding you in a deeply negative way. In the end, you want to be positively shaken to your inner core in such a way it helps light the way for you to experience a gradual build up of a colorfully strong, worthwhile relationship.
