‘Meeting halfway’ came to my mind.
There is already so much out there, something I thought.
I also thought, I have a different view on it.
Something unknown or just what I would like to share.
Not that I care, maybe only for myself.
When we talk about meeting halfway, we think about compensating.
At least what I think it means.
We should ‘meet halfway’, for the other to come down.
Perhaps even coming to their senses or it could be both.
A reference I am making and you can think for yourselves if that is true.
Meeting halfway could mean different things.
I understand it can be necessary to meet each other, for the sake of the marriage or relationship, to not lose ourselves.
It is this sense I believe meeting halfway means in the present day.
However the way I am thinking about it, is it could also be we are meeting each other halfway on the road we are on. Meeting halfway on the way we are going to.
A moment in time or even space, where we are and where we are heading.
It is this meeting which is not a compromise but an initial, essential meeting that will happen nonetheless and will always be there in its essence.
We are meeting halfway on the journey we are both on for ourselves.
Halfway would be a crossroad for us to recognize the other person.
This sounds romantic to me and when I thought about it a bit more, it explains why we are sometimes not together with that person we think or even dream about.
Why doesn’t he show up in our reality? The question behind it.
It is a distance too far, where we can not see.
Yet.
However the wisdom is to know we need to keep on going and are meeting each other whenever halfway occurs. Of course it is not for us to know when that exactly is.
I understand that can be painful and we can lose ourselves a bit in that proces.
Patience is the cure or just to keep on going with the understanding it will happen when we are halfway.
To say halfway is just one point in time.
A question I am getting and seems to be important.
Is there a sign or a way for us to find out when meeting halfway?
Honestly I don’t think there is something like that.
Perhaps something for us to create and build.
For people to know where meeting halfway is.
An ease of the mind I would like to promote and support.
For people to get together and find that love.
Not just for ourselves, but for the creation of society and for humanity as a whole.
Doesn’t that sound lovely?
However it sounds a bit like a fantasy and what would the world look like with these kinds of signs.
Perhaps a bit silly.
It is making me laugh though.
Not only in a funny way, but it almost sounds ridiculous. Perhaps it also is a little.
What do you think?
The truth is, it is not about those signs.
But a redirection of what we know about love.
Where we don’t have to compromise for something that isn’t good for us.
Another meaning of what meeting halfway has, at least according to me.
We can rise above the occasion and make that turn for ourselves. By continuing on a road making us happy.
Because meeting halfway isn’t something sad.
So, when would we know if meeting halfway is sad?
If someone tells us to meet halfway in the sense of meeting their standard.
Whenever that happens, you’d better pack your stuff and go as far as you can.
You don’t have to run, in case you were thinking that.
Just don’t wait too long to leave.
It would be my friendly advise.
Meeting halfway to me can be halfway of our life, which seems simple.
But when I think about it more, it also means we would be knowing when we would be dying and I don’t think this is set and stone.
I mean, the future can always change and death is not to be predicted in such a way.
Also we can become anxious whenever we know something like that can happen, I am talking about death.
A fear of an ending which is out there, since it is part of life and could even become a block of people finding each other.
What I try to say with meeting halfway is to be aware we don’t have to take things for granted as such. Don’t have to lower our standards for the sake of a relationship, marriage, someone else or even for ourselves.
To me meeting halfway is that yes, sometimes things can be a bit out of control and we don’t know exactly what is happening.
I guess that is the road we should be taking.
A path to follow.
For us to know we would be meeting that significant other halfway, wherever we are going.
To know, it will happen someday in the future.
