The union....


Dear diary,

Union is an act of joining together people or things. In life a union between one person to another or one country to another or one thing to another is very common. These unions are normally formed with an aim of bringing intense happiness derived from the mutual benefits of parties brought together but at times these unions become unpleasant to one or both parties. Normally when a union is severe the line of separation between  the two parties grow wider and wider, controversies set in bringing along the doubts that make its members to call into question as to why the said union was formed in the first place.

In human union can be between two people exchanging their vows in front of witnesses or two hearts that just fell in love with one another. At times it can be between two or more people who have found each other after long years of being apart and sometimes the union can be inform of friendship. In most cases we consider this to be a start of a mutual benefit relationship that would last for a very long time. If you have been in one of these unions you can remember how it made you feel complete, loved and wanted. How it made you a better person, how it gave you a purpose for life, a reason for existence.

Sometimes these unions are not just meant to bring love and purpose in life, they are also meant to be some sort of protection, to make one feel safe, to help on not feel alone. But when these unions do not serve the purpose intended by its members what can heal its members? Is it formation of another union with someone else? Or is it patience with the previous partner permitting him to be human, the patient that seeks to understand that everyone fails at one time or another?

Some will say it is better to look for another person to love, someone who will make you happy, give you what you deserve may be, but how would you know in the end it won't be just the same?  Others will say it is wise to give everyone time to correct their mistakes, that somehow that patience gives you the ability to hold on during rough times in any relationship rather than bailing out under pressure each time your partner fails to meet you half way. But until when will you be patient?

Dear diary I don’t know who is right on this and who is wrong, all I know is there is no pain equal to that of two people that once loved each other inflicting on one another. It’s a pain that cannot be treated by any medicine; it stays with a person as they wait to heal naturally. I also think it should be clear to all who have any possible intention of forming a union with another person that avoidance of this pain is the beginning of wisdom and happy life, for such a pain is strong enough to contaminate the rest of your lives leaving you with scars that are impossible to remove and at other times it may cripple you, taking away your ability to believe in someone else....
