Priorities

"Don't make someone a priority in your life when you are just an option in their life". I thought I had found the teaching of the day but I soon realised that though it sounds theoretically right, it is practically impossible. How do you decide in what quantity to love a person so that he doesn't become a priority as long as you remain just an option? Is that how it is supposed to be? A blunt give and take?

I don't love someone because that person loves me, but because he inspires me, respects me, makes me grow, encourages me to achieve more. And I know that I am in love because my heart aches at the thought of not seeing him for many days, I share his frustration and joy and because the moment I see him I have a smile on my face even if we may have fought the night before.

"Live your life in a way so as to never have regrets. If you love someone, tell them so today as there may not be a tomorrow". I'd rather apply this quotation in my life. After all, I was born to live!
