'Don't be sad when people remember you only when they need you, you are like a candle in their darkness'
But how true is this statement? How are we as humans supposed to totally ignore the fact that no matter how much love we give, at the end of the day we are going to be alone? How are we supposed to not cry till we have no tears left and howl till our throat hurts, when this seems to be the only way to survive?
We as humans are wired in a way that when we give love we expect it back. That's what makes us human, the want to be loved or rather the need to be loved. When we love someone, when we do something for them, the least we want is to be noticed. For that person to acknowledge the fact that yes we did something for them. Now don't get me wrong here, but in the end when it comes to love we are all selfish. When we give love we expect it back. As we need air and water to survive, we also need love. And we want, we need to be loved by every single person who matters in our life, friends family everyone. Even if one of them doesn't love you back you feel hurt, it pains you to think that you did so much for them but in the end you don't matter to them, not even a bit. So imagine how much it would hurt when it is not one person, instead it is almost every significant person in your life.
And trust me, when this happens you don't think of these quotes and you definitely don't think of candles and darkness. You are devastated. Because those whom you thought the world of, forgot you.
