just never thought you would lose it…

Some people say you don’t know what you have until you lose it…









But it’s not like that…










You always knew what you had…












You just never thought you would lose it…

The LEAF Philosophy

Plato asked Socrates “Why do people always have a problem about relationships?”

Socrates replied, “Go to the wheat field and look for the most special leaf ..”

After a while, Plato went back but empty handed.


Socrates asked why.



Plato said, “I was able to look for a special leaf but then I thought that I could find something better so I left and searched for more. I didn’t find anything and when I went back to finally pick the first special leaf that I saw, it was no longer there.



What’s wrong about the attitude of people is that we always search for the best.



But when we finally able experience a great relationship, we take our loved ones for granted expecting to find someone better…



and then realize in the end, the love you had was the best, the only problem is it’s now too late…



YOU ALREADY LOST YOUR LEAF.

It’s simply BITTERSWEET…

We are all guilty of saving old messages from someone who was once special in our lives.

Going to familiar places gives that small twinge in our hearts and smile in our faces.

It’s simply BITTERSWEET…

Because every time that person crosses our mind…

We remember the memories that we were completely happy and

At the same time sadness

when it was time to let go… :’( **

****falling in love & stars****

*“falling in love is like looking at the stars…..***

if you pick one out of the billion and stare at it long enough….

all the others just fade away… :)

with all of our imperfections we are accepted and loved.

We don’t look for love

…because it’s lonely to watch movies alone.

…because it’s sad to eat meals on your own.

…because it’s nice to cuddle up with someone on rainy days.

We look for love -

…because we want to be accepted

for the sloppy way we dress

for the clumsy way we eat

for the bad hair days

for the simplicity in us…

Love is an act of acceptance –

that with all of our imperfections we are accepted and loved.

L_O_V_E L_E_S_S_O_N_S

…sorry was never the same with 'I won’t do it again'.

…when he fools out, it doesn’t mean you’re giving less, it’s because he’s asking too much.

…There are no wasted tears, there are only inconsiderate partner.

…Bitterness is often the painful consequence of holding on.

…crying before breaking up its good- you’re trying to save a relationship but after so is different. IT’S STUPIDITY.

Companionship vs LOVE

A perfect partner in life is someone you can be with and talk to about anything without realizing the day is over…





Someone who will always listen and feel twice the joy or pain you’re going through.





When you start to feel that ‘CONNECTION,’ never let it go because there’s more to COMPANIONSHIP than to LOVE only.







And in the end, when all else fails, and are consumed, you will always hold on to those times when you DON’T EVEN NEED to hear the words ‘I love you’ to feel happy and contented.





:)

the more you seek for happiness the more you lose it… :(

“I realized it’s really hard to show everybody how you feel… scared of letting them know what’s bothering you.

Sometimes lying would be an excellent remedy to overshadow the tears in your eyes…

You hide the pain by smiling…

You hide the tears by laughing…

And you hide the sadness by lying…


Sometimes you want to trade your life just to experience a minute of happiness that will change everything…









But that’s what makes it IRONIC… because the more you seek for happiness the more you lose it… :(

a broken heart...

A broken heart doesn’t need someone who’s willing to make it whole again.




Rather it needs someone who can make it realize that it never really got broken at all.

The Purpose-Driven Life

"... those who have hurt you in the past cannot continue to hurt you now UNLESS you hold on to the pain through resentment..


YOUR PAST IS PAST.


Nothing will change it...






You are only hurting yourself with your bitterness.





FOR YOUR OWN SAKE







...learn from it and let go.

Isn't it sad that in our lives we have to say goodbye to those we love and care about for some reason we can barely explain...???





and that no matter how hard we try to save the good old times it wouldn't work.






The only thing left to do is to break away and LET GO to prove them just how far and how much pain we're willing to take to make things better...





:'(

tragedy

The worst feeling isn't being lonely....













It's knowing you'll never be remembered by the person you'll never forget... :'(

but when it comes to love

I don't expect people to understand or care to believe in me...



They may question every decision I make...


and it's true that I may be selfish and bitchy at times...




But when it comes to LOVE???????








DON'T DOUBT.




I don't play with people's hearts...







UNLESS they deserve it.

I'm allergic to lies

Someone said to me....




"i love you.."










I sneezed...




Then I replied...




Sorry...







I'm allergic to lies... :(

People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.

People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.

When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person.

When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed.

They may seem like a godsend and they are.

They are there for the reason you need them to be.

Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.

Sometimes they die.

Sometimes they walk away.

Sometimes they act up and

force you to take a stand.

What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done.

The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.

Some people come into your life for a SEASON,

because your turn has come to share, grow or learn.

They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh.

They may teach you something you have never done.

They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.

Believe it, it is real.

But only for a season.

LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons, things you must

build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation.

Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life.

TODAY

THANK THE PERSON WHO IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER HAVE BEEN PART OF YOUR LIFE

Even if a small way you can make them feel

That you are indeed thankful for their

Presence as well as the beautiful moments that they have given -

No matter if they are your reason, season, or your lifetime. :)

from a friend whose heart is broken

I don't have any sleeping problems, I have no worries, no fears, no nothing, just myself. But when I met a couple this morning, laughing together, holding their hands tightly and looking through each other's eyes, it's harder for me to sleep now. I THOUGHT, I'M BETTER OFF ALONE. But maybe they're right. Maybe it would be nicer to spend your time with someone that you love. Someone who means something to you. Maybe I'll try it, not for now. But SOON. Soon enough when I find someone to share my life with.

Cause you have this one thing that sets you apart from a stone.......

Something to ponder on:




In life, you will realize that the people you meet have a PURPOSE.


Some were put there to test you...



Some would use you...



Some would teach you and...



Some would bring out the best in you...


Some may even cause you pain and heartache..




BUT ONE MUST LEARN TO MOVE ON




So having a facade of a clown doesn't mean you're really HAPPY and NUMB from all the pain the world gives you...



Cause you have this one thing that sets you apart from a stone.......









A HEART...

this is me and this is who I am...

In my life I never tried to impress someone for them to like me because when I do, I will have to keep that image for the rest of my life and it's hard to pretend to be somebody else...



I may not be that close to perfection like other people do...



But who cares...???




It's not them whom I lived for anyway...



What matters is that I know myself and I know how I look inside out...




and I'm worth it...



This is me...


If you can't handle my worsts...




then you don't deserve my future....

my give-up story

"You'll never find anybody that achieve great success in life with out a give up story...


Nothing comes for free...



And there will come a time when you will find that you too will have to give-up something good...









IF YOU WANT SOMETHING BETTER...

'To have it halfway is harder than not having it at all...' :(

I don't know why we all hang on to something we know we're better off letting go...



It's like we're scared to lose what we don't really have...





Some of us say we rather have that something than absolutely nothing....



BUT THE TRUTH IS:



'To have it halfway is harder than not having it at all...' :(

being wise

"NEVER be ashamed to admit you were wrong...




You're only saying that you're wiser today than you were yesterday.. :)

just break the f door

"don't waste a minute for not being happy. If one door closes RUN to the WINDOW...






or....





JUST BREAK THE F*CKING DOOR!!!

keep on turning

I had let go
of what
i thought was meant for me....


It hurts...




a lot actually...



But getting
through
each day
made me
realize
that the
world
will keep
on turning




and so...








should I....

of waiting

GOD operates on a perfectly designed timeline.





HE knows what you need and when to provide it.




Delight yourself in the LORD and He will give the desire of your heart!

a single reason to be with you

i looked into your eyes...

i see a faint light...



it blinded me...


for all eternity i sought for something i could never have...


it made me crazy...


it made me wept...





because of all the thousand reasons to let go




i still found 1 reason to be with you...

the art of letting go

You can never own something that was never yours.

So let’s stop gripping on things we expect to last forever because nothing last for eternity.

FOREVER IS A LIE.

Everything is transitory.

So while you have something in your hand, put in mind that it’s just borrowed.

So that someday when it’s gone…

It won’t take forever to let it go…

CAN YOU TELL WHICH CANDY WAS THE SWEETEST?

Loving many people at the same time is like eating candies with different flavors…

It’s fun because you get to taste them all.

But once you’re done and when they are all gone…

CAN YOU TELL WHICH CANDY WAS THE SWEETEST?

Learn how to let things go.

Know that you cannot have everything.

Stick with someone who makes you happy.

We only get to live once.

Do away with of the other candies and give yourself a favor…

Stay with the one you love most AND NEVER LET GO.

stupid me

They say:

"SMART people usually have stupid hearts."








I say:

"With the rate my stupid heart is going, damn! I must be a freaking genius!"...

giving to0 much of myself is suicide

When I think about what love has brought me, I remember the times that my only refuge is alcohol.

It helps me forget about my pain and misery.

I forget about the person I have given the power to hurt me.

Experience has taught me to be wise, and I keep with me one hard earned lesson amidst my drunken stupor—

Giving too much of myself to somebody is almost the same as suicide.

shoot to kill

The best way to heal a heart that has been broken is to…

KILL that person who made it happen…

Inspiring…:(

being happy

The happiest people don’t have everything they want.

They make the most out of what they already have.

Misery starts when a person looks at the 10% MISSING and overlooks the 90% BLESSING. We all have our own share of blessings.

Some get them fast, some wait for a long time.

What is important is, it comes at a time when we need it most.

GOD KNOWS best and he will give the BEST in his own time.

just be glad...

Don’t be unhappy if all you dreams never came true…

Just be glad your nightmares didn’t…

hurtful lies

The most hurtful kind of lies are the ones uttered by

the people you care about the most.

It makes you doubt everything you know

and makes you wonder

why you care so much

and worst of all,

it puts you in the position of deciding whether

to tell them you know they’re lying

or act like you’re too dull to

even know the difference.

Keep these things in mind

the next time you lie to someone

who cares about you-

because

more often than not

they know

and

it hurts

a lot…

Just when everything is falling apart…

Just when everything is falling apart…

Look again…

Cause maybe…

just maybe…

Thins are actually starting to fall into there rightful places…

just couldn't let go...

Sometimes we just can’t let go of the hurt…

because it’s a constant reminder of one great love story we never expected to come to an end. :(

don't belong to

Sometimes we need to forget some people from our past because of one simple reason-

They just don’t belong to our future…:'(

last breath.............................

Be nice to those who smoke....


















Every cigarette might be their LAST BREATH.......................

COMPLICATED

Define C O M P L I C A T E D:

It’s when you don’t know where you stand in a person’s life...

It’s when you’re hanging dead air and knowing you can be thrown off anytime...

It’s when you’re like more than friends but not really, and it’s like you’re lovers when it’s really otherwise...

Sometimes you should want to wish it’s really otherwise...

Sometimes you would want to wish to have never met the person at all but at the back of your mind, you’re thankful you have…

from greys with love

Try loving someone you’ve loved before and you’ll realize that it will either lead to the same thing that happened before or something better…

not hard huh?

But why not try loving someone who doesn’t love you back and you will see yourself giving up or dying daily.. –grey’s anatomy

BECAUSE I DO NOT EXIST TO PLEASE THEM.

There are people who don’t like me. People who criticize me the way I run my life. People who say things to hurt me. People who do things to give me pain. People who will never understand my principles in life. People who will keep on trying to pull me down and say bad things behind my back…

But through it all, I don’t really mind …

BECAUSE I DO NOT EXIST TO PLEASE THEM.

finding yourself

“There will come a point in your life that you’ll get tired of chasing everyone… trying to fix everything…

It’s not giving up...

it’s just a realization that you don’t need all those you went after- because what you need are those who stood by you even if you never needed them.”

insanity

A quote from a priest:

“When you fall in love you go into a state of insanity where you lose control of yourself, consciously or unconsciously. What matters is you fall in love with someone who won’t take advantage of your insanity, but will respect you and take the responsibility of being loved by an insane person.”

tooth and love

Letting go is like getting a tooth pulled out by a dentist.

Pulled it out, you’re relieved. But how many times does your tongue run itself over the spot where the tooth once was? Probably a hundred times a day.

Just because it wasn’t hurting anymore doesn’t mean you don’t notice it. It leaves a gap and sometimes you see yourself missing it terribly. It’s going to take a while, but all you have to do is to wait.

Should you have kept the tooth?? NO, because it was causing you so much pain.

It’s better to let go.

sweet revenge

The greatest revenge to a girl who steals your man

is to let her have him…

You are only giving her a heartache that’s waiting to happen…

because a truly good man can never be stolen.

happiness

The best feeling in this world is realizing

that you are perfectly happy

without the thing that

you thought you wanted the most...

hard but so true...

falling

Do you know how painful it is to give up on someone because you don’t have a choice but to do so???...........

It’s like falling off from the highest floor of a building and sadly you still end up alive.

tips for commitment

When you are out there looking for that perfect person, keep these things in mind...

People change no matter how hard they try not to...
As you grow older, you mature and with each new level of maturity comes different ideas and different needs and wants.
The person who was perfect for you at 20s could be the person you hate at 30s.

You have to find someone who will:

...grow with you
...change with you
...laugh with you.

Remember that there's no such perfect person in this world...

but there will always be someone who will complete you.

a true man

Some men feel the need to love a thousand different women...






But a real man knows how to love one woman...















in a thousand different ways..........

one thing about human beings...

Human beings are funny...

They long to be with people they love but refuse to admit openly...


Some are afraid to show even the slightest sign of affection because of fear...

Fear that their feeling may not be recognized or worst not returned.

But one thing about human beings that puzzles me the most is their conscious effort to be remotely connected with their object of affection...


even if it kills them slowly within.

--S. Freud

"What is the human being's funniest characteristic?"

A man asked a writer, "What is the human being's funniest characteristic?"

He replied:

"Our contradictories...
We are in such a hurry to grow up and then we long for the lost childhood. We make ourslelves ill earning money, and then spend all our money on getting well again. We think so much about the future that we neglect the present, and thus experience neither the present nor the future.

WE LIVE AS IF WE WERE NEVER GOING TO DIE AND DIE AS IF WE HAD NEVER LIVED.

-jaime cohel

he will never love you back.. :'(

it's painful to love someone you know very well could never love you back.

it's like building a sandcastle-

you desparately make it stronger by adding more sand


hoping that the waves will not wash it away.

But just like unrequited love,

you get disillusioned in the end.


the castle is gone and no matter

how you build it over and over again

it will always be destroyed by the same reason-


he will never love you back.. :'(

temptation

"BY persistently remaining single, you're slowly converting yourself into a PERMANENT PUBLIC TEMPTATION!"


-hell yeah!!!!!!!!!!!

love's not enough

We have to realize that love's not enough to make a relationship work...

We need TRUST and RESPECT, TIME, EFFORT, & TOTAL COMMITMENT.

If a person doesn't show respect, doesn't earn your trust & can't keep promises then no matter how many times they say 'i love you' those words will be empty.

Take time to listen to what they DON'T say...

Take time to look at what they DON'T show...

Because there are secrets hidden beneath their words and actions.

SO DON'T LET PASSION BUT WISDOM DECIDE FOR YOU...

Love wisely because it's never easy...to love and get hurt!

GROW UP.

Life doesn't get harder with age...it only gets challenging.



don't be afraid....



pursue your passion...



live your dreams...



love if you're in love...



cry if you're hurt







JUST DON'T GROW OLD







but rather...GROW UP.

Quarter-life Crisis

They call it the "Quarter-life Crisis." It is when you stop going along with the crowd and start realizing that there are many things about yourself that you didn't know and may not like.

You start feeling insecure and wonder where you will be in a year or two, but then get scared because you barely know where you are now.You start realizing that people are selfish and that, maybe, those friends that you thought you were so close to aren't exactly the greatest people you have ever met, and the people you have lost touch with are some of the most important ones. What you don't recognize is that they are realizing that too, and aren't really cold, catty, mean or insincere, but that they are as confused as you.

You look at your job... and it is not even close to what you thought you would be doing, or maybe you are looking for a job and realizing that you are going to have to start at the bottom and that scares you.Your opinions have gotten stronger. You see what others are doing and find yourself judging more than usual because suddenly you realize that you have certain boundaries in your life and are constantly adding things to your list of what is acceptable and what isn't.

One minute, you are insecure and then the next, secure.You laugh and cry with the greatest force of your life. You feel alone and scared and confused.

Suddenly, change is the enemy and you try and cling on to the past with dear life, but soon realize that the past is drifting further and further away, and there is nothing to do but stay where you are or move forward.

You get your heart broken and wonder how someone you loved could do such damage to you. Or you lie in bed and wonder why you can't meet anyone decent enough that you want to get to know better. Or maybe you love someone but love someone else too and cannot figure out why you are doing this because you know that you aren't a bad person.

One night stands and random hook ups start to look cheap.Getting wasted and acting like an idiot starts to look pathetic.

You go through the same emotions and questions over and over, and talk with your friends about the same topics because you cannot seem to make a decision.You worry about loans, money, the future and making a life for yourself... and while winning the race would be great, right now you'd just like to be a contender! What you may not realize is that everyone reading this relates to it.

We are in our best of times and our worst of times, trying as hard as we can to figure this whole thing out.

more than

Don't be bitter and full of hatred when the one you love decided to leave you.

Ask, listen and let go.

Don't force yourself to understand when you can't...

to fight hard when obviously it's overand to play deaf to the nagging truth that what you had doesn't work anymore.

Instead say,

"I have loved more than you'd think I would, but I feel sorry that you lost your chance to be loved more than you would ever feel in your life after this..."

so strong to let go

when i know things are not meant for me i learn to let go.



it doesn't mean I'm weak



but i'm just showing how strong i am to fight the urge



of wanting something



i'm not suppose to have...
