lots of stuff to do this week.
my birthday is tomorrow!! =D » 16 quotes « I've never been in love, so I guess I don't know the happiness of love. I've never been nor am I now. I'm kind of afraid to step that deep into something, because I'm just tired of giving everything I've got. But it's hard, when you know that you could be giving more, but you're just giving what you want to give. Not because you're receiving less, but just because, just simply because, you're afraid to admit to yourself that you would give that person your whole world. And you're just afraid that your whole world or your everything just might not be enough. You just don't want to end up empty handed & admit to yourself that you wanted to give them everything. The bad things in life open your eyes to the good things
you weren't paying attention to before. you make me happy.
and i really don't wanna go.
please let me make you happy.
i want to, just so you know. there's a light in every single star; you're more than who you think you are. I had breakfast with my shadow.
We had quite the discussion.
Can you fall in love with the things you only know,
the things you may never touch? To exist for just yourself is meaningless. Michelangelo said:
"The best way to judge the essential elements of a sculpture
Is to throw it down a hill and the unimportant pieces will break away."
Sometimes, life is like that.
It tosses us down a hill.
But when we reach the bottom, only the important things are left,
And that's when our vision clears.
That's when we hold on tight to what we know, while hope stirs inside us.
It's all a matter of perspective. what we do doesn't define us.
what defines us is how well we rise after falling. I'm sitting here wondering how could I write a quote about heart-pounding teenage-love when I've never experienced it. Well, being a teenager & watching my fair share of romance movies, I know one thing, & that's that love is magical. Well, at least it is in the movies. It's when two people come face to face by pure fate & look at each other with no intention of leaving, not for a minute. It usually ends all well & good; with a killer knock-your-socks-off kiss; with amazing passion. But in real life, love is messy, people fight & sometimes, despite the magic, they leave. So, love? Well love is being able to put up with someone for 5 minutes at a time & liking it enough to come back for more. And if you play your cards right & the chemistry flows, maybe you too will get your happy ending, knock-your-socks-off kiss too, with lots of passion, of course. we cannot really love anybody with whom we never laugh. I remember one morning getting up at dawn, there was such a sense of possibility. You know that feeling? And I remember thinking to myself, so, this is the beginning of happiness. This is where it starts. And of course there will always be more. It never occurred to me it wasn't the beginning. It was happiness. It was the moment. Right then. Sometimes we expect more from others
because we would be willing to do that much for them. Of all the chances to reach out and hug you, I didn't. Because I was too afraid of your reaction, too afraid of what could happen next, too afraid of changing my already altered future.
Remember the people you meet in life
and never be ashamed to miss them. I've come to realize that you can't get what you want usually. You can't just sit there waiting to be noticed. You can't sit there expecting someone to love you, because the person who feels the same way just may be waiting and sitting like you are. You need to find each other. |
