It's Worth Fighting For

Act 121:

“It’s never too late… To Fight For Love

If you know deep in your heart, that it’s worth fighting for, then fight. Sometimes you’re the only one who knows what’s right. And even if you fail, you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing your did your best. You can’t do more.” – Patrick Lindsay

Quote in book: “Love is everything it’s cracked up to be.” ~ Erica Jong

Love is so intoxicating that when we find it we don’t want to let go of that feeling. It is so rare that we connect with people and find real love. Only you know whats right for you, so sometimes you’re the only one fighting for love when other people have told you to give it up or the person is bad for you. However, most of the time we don’t listen, when it’s not real love, because we are too infatuated with the idea of love to realize that this person is bad for us. There’s a fine line between holding on to love because you just know it’ll work out or holding on, because you’re in love with the idea and not the person. So be sure you know which category you fall into…

When you are in that position where you need to fight for love, what do you do? Do you listen when it’s not practical? Does love conquer all? Can love really get you through anything? Or do you sometimes have to listen to your head and break your own heart sometimes or break the other person’s heart to do what’s right for you or both of you? How do you know it’s worth fighting for?

Unless you’ve found love already, you are like the rest of us. We are always searching… To find someone you want to spend the rest of your life with. To find someone that needs you just as much as you need them. Who understands you. Who loves you no matter what…. When you find this person... That's when you know when to fight. Fight!! Fight HARD to be with them. Don’t let anyone stop you. That kind of love is rare. It's the kind of love that movies and dreams are made of. If it's meant to be. It'll work out and fighting will may help it stay together. If it doesn’t work out for you, then at least you tried and the old adage is true. “it’s better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all”

And yet I'm still afraid to let it flow.
What started out as friendship,
Has grown stronger.
I only wish I had the strength to let it show.

I tell myself that I can't hold out forever.
I said there is no reason for my fear.
Cause I feel so secure when we're together.
You give my life direction,
You make everything so clear.

And even as I wander,
I'm keeping you in sight.
You're a candle in the window,
On a cold, dark winter's night.
And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might.

Thought it wouldn't matter
If we didn't stay together,
And if it was over,
Maybe it was for the better.
I was thinking I'd be alright,
'til I thought it all through.
Now I know that I ain't really living
If I have to live without you.

I don't wanna live without your love,
I don't wanna face the night alone.
I could never make it through my life
If I had to make it on my own.
I don't wanna love nobody else,
I don't wanna find somebody new.
I don't wanna live without your love,
I just wanna live my life with you.

We are young, heartache to heartache we stand
NO PROMISES, NO DEMANDS
Love Is A Battlefield
We are strong, no one can tell us we're wrong
Searchin' our hearts for so long, both of us knowing
Love Is A Battlefield

Not everybody knows the way a river flows
Not everybody sees the sun up in the sky
Maybe you and I should not try to plan our lives
If only what we could see what we hold in our hands

Love hurts 'cause you can't let go
Love hurts 'cause you need it so
Love hurts yes it hurts, but it's good for fools
Feel some pain now, still you wanna try it again

Everybody cries until the day they die
And everybody feels like they're the only one
Maybe you and I should not try to plan our lives
If only we could see what's in front of our eyes, yeah

I know just how to whisper
And I know just how to cry
I know just where I find the answers
And I know just how to lie
I know just how to fake it
And I know just how to scheme
I know just when to face the truth
And then I know just when to dream
And I know just where I touch you
And I know just what to prove
I know when to pull you closer
And I know when to let you loose
