"The greatest pain that any one individual can ever feel is the pain of losing someone you love when it could have been prevented at any time. This pain is far greater than any pain one can experience emotionally, because at any time you can be with the person you love, but you chose to seek out pleasure with another. You become so consumed by your own ambition to wander and travel and look for that next conquest, that you can’t hear your true love asking you to stay with them and experience the fullness of love that you have taken for granted.
So you try to go on your conquest, looking around every which way you can, forward, left, right. Every direction except back where you started. You become so blinded by your selfish ambition, that you don’t see that your true love cries herself to sleep at night. You realize you enjoy the freedom of having independence, looking for others with no consequence to your own feelings, all the while having your love behind you, always watching what you’re doing, but never questioning your heart, because she loves you and will be content to see you happy pursuing your ambition.
Then an empty feeling starts to fill her heart. Thinking "this person I love may never really be my true love, or may never be contented to settle down with me." She pleads with her love, to put an end to his ambition, which soon she may no longer have the desire to stand behind him, that she should start making her own heart happy. But the man would ignore these cries, feeling that no matter what happened, she will always love him. At this point in life and love, she has been taken for granted. This one precious gift that only two soul mates can share, this perfect love that they have for one another, is expressed on one side, and assumed to be there forever by the other.
Finally one day, someone enters the woman’s life, filling the void that the ignorant man left behind. So blinded is he now by his own greed, he doesn’t even see it happening. When he starts to realize what is happening, his ego doesn’t allow him to fully grasp what is occurring behind him. He thinks that this is temporary, that her love will always be tied to his heart. But he is wrong. When she starts to embrace the warmth of the other man, who has filled that void long created by the greed of the other man, he panics. He attempts to try to get her back, assuring her things will be different.
And he is right. Things are different. Never looking behind, always forward, he has lost everything he had built. Now her love is full and complete, but not with him, but for the one that showed the most care for her heart in that moment of need. He stands there, dejected, depressed, because he knew what true love is, and was for him. The moment is past for him now, the love that warmed him gone. This partner for his soul has fled, for the love that she tried to present to him for so long had been taken for granted, and another has cherished all the warmth and beauty that she tried to present to him, knowing that man will not make the same mistake. If only he could have seen her the way he sees her now, with these eyes of true love. If only he had seen all along that she loved him with her whole being. Now it is too late. A fool who takes love for granted is the worst kind of fool. He is the fool who could’ve had that future." Anything else just ask
