‘Meeting halfway’ is something that came to my mind.
There is already so much out there is what I thought.
Also that 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 that is what I think it means.
We should ‘meet halfway’, for the other to come down.
Perhaps even coming to our senses or it could be both.
A reference I am making and you can think for yourselves what that means.
However ‘meeting halfway’ is something else.
At least another meaning I believe is out there.
I will try to explain my thoughts about it.
Meeting halfway could mean different things.
I understand that it can be necessary to meet each other. For the sake of the marriage or relationship.
To not lose ourselves.
It is this sense of what I believe meeting halfway means in the present day.
However the way I am thinking about it, is that it could also be that we are meeting each other halfway on the road that 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 that 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 so 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?
It is a distance that is too far, where we can not see.
Yet.
However the wisdom is to know that 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.
And 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 there halfway.
To say that halfway is just one point in time.
I hope this makes sense.
A question that I am getting and that 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.
I think it is.
However I understand that 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 bit.
What do you think?
The truth is, it is not about those signs.
But a redirection of what we know about love.
That 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.
It is not something negative I am saying, but to say we can rise above the occasion and make that turn for ourselves. Not just continuing on a road that doesn’t make us happy.
Because meeting halfway isn’t something sad.
So, when would we know if meeting halfway is sad?
If someone is telling us to meet us 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.
That would be my friendly advise.
Meeting halfway to me can be halfway of our life, that seems simple.
But when I think about it more, it also means that we would be knowing when we would be dying and I don’t think that is something that is set and stone.
I mean, the future can always change and death is not to be predicted in such a way.
At least if you would ask me.
Also we can become anxious whenever we know that something like that can happen.
I am talking about death.
A fear of an ending that 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 that 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.
That is not the point of meeting halfway.
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 that we should be taking. A path to follow. For us to know we would be meeting that significant other halfway of wherever we are going.
To know, it will happen someday in the future.
