Love is not necessary, but Luxury It’s pretty interesting that some of my friends will keep asking me every a short period about whether I am still waiting and chasing, because I wrote”chasing and waiting” in my skype. Even my answer is the same every time. Haha…To be honest, is there anyone in my mind? Sure, I do. I bet every single person does. But why I am not only waiting, but also chasing. Because they are two totally different things. 'Waiting', maybe I am still waiting that person, but also maybe it won’t be anymore one day. 'Chasing', I am chasing what makes me believe fate and helps me find out my dream&value of my life. To find a true love, some people would think they should try to meet many people and fall in love with a lot of people so that they can find out the right one who suits them most. However, how many of you will feel deep regret about how u did during every relationship. But sometimes, you are able to learn a lot and sort out what you want through even just once heart-breaking. On the opposite side, I also dislike the way to wait for someone’s love all the time. You can crazy about somebody, but you don’t have to wait for him by using all your time with the whole of your heart. I know why such an amount of people wanna stay with a person is because he can give you a sense of security, or more. Whatever, who can guarantee that this person won’t leave you in the future. You know there is another kind of sense of security that only belongs to yourself. And do you believe that everyone was born with a mission. Or we can call it the value of our life. With it, no matter how many stuffs you lose, you still can face the life and yourself bravely. Because at least you know that your life is meaningful and your mission will never betray you even you have buried it in the deep of your heart. Never make love as a necessary, but a luxury. You will learn to cherish the value of your life, then you can find a better way to love somebody but also yourself.

Love is a luxury, not a necessity.

Every short while, my friends ask me whether I'm still waiting and chasing, because I wrote "chasing and waiting" in my Skype profile. But my answer is always the same. Is there honestly anyone on my mind? Sure, I bet every single person has someone in mind. But why am I not only waiting, but also chasing? Because these are two totally different things.

"Waiting" means I am still waiting for that person, but maybe one day I won't be.

"Chasing" means I am chasing fate, and pursuing my dreams and the meaning of my life.

Many people believe that to find true love, they must fall in love with many people and choose the one who most suits them. However, you may deeply regret things you've done in each relationship. But sometimes you can discover what you want after just one heartbreak.

On the other hand, I don't like waiting long for someone's love. Even if you are crazy about somebody, you don't have to spend your whole heart waiting for him. I know many people want to stay with someone who can provide a sense of security, and more.

Whatever. Who can guarantee this person won't leave you in the future? Luckily, there is another kind of security that belongs only to the self.

And do you believe everyone was born with a mission? We can also call it the meaning of our life. With it in mind, no matter what difficulties you encounter, you can tread bravely onward because at least you know your life is meaningful and your mission will never betray you, even if it's buried deep in your heart.

Never treat love as a necessity, but only as a luxury. You will learn to cherish the meaning of your life, and in the process, learn to love others in addition to yourself.

"""Good work, Joling. It sounds like you've already discovered your life's purpose, and that isn't easy.
