love yourself

Don't get dependent on achieving happiness by being with someone.
Love yourself first before sharing your life with somebody.
Because if you don't,
you will always look for people that you think can make you complete.

And in the end,
it will make you lose yourself more,
bit by bit..
piece by piece..

Girl v. Boy

We don't need a man..
We may want them for some reasons,
but we don't need them..

When we've got problems, to whom do we run first?
--to our girlfriends!

When we laugh, to whom do we want to share our stories?
--to our girlfriends!

So it's obvious,
with ot without a man,
we can survive!

Remember this:
--Man can fulfiil our weakness, it's true!
--But girlfriends fulfill strengths!!

moments

Give time to love..
Give time to speak..
And give time to share
the precious thoughts in your mind..

Life is not measured
by the number of breaths we take..
but by the moments
that take our breath away..

Happiness??

It is waking up in the middle of the night,
shifting blankets
and feeling the heat of the person next to you..

You turn around
and you see him in his most innocent state..
You smile,
kiss his face gently
so as not to wake him..

You turn around
and a grin forms on your face..

Then, you feel an arm wrapped around your waist,
and you know it doesn't get any better than this..

find your way

Those who appear in your life
- whether to help or to harm -
are all given by God.
Meet all of them with a peaceful heart,
but with a warrior's spirit.
You will fail many times,
but in falling you will learn,
and in learning,
you will find your way.

"A Perfect Stranger" -- Danielle Steel

People spend a lifetime looking for love,
wanting it, needing it, seeking it,
and most of the time they don't find it.

But once in a while, once in a great while,
it comes to you, it throws itself in your lap, pounds on your door,
and says, 'Here I am, take me, I'm yours.'

When it comes, how can you turn away from it?
How can you say, 'Not now, maybe later'?
How can you not take the chance,
knowing the opportunity may never come again?

it ain't your time

If you give up during the winter,
you will miss the promise of your spring,
the beauty of your summer,
fulfillment of your fall..

Don't let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest.
Don't judge life by one difficult season.
Persevere through the difficult patches,
and better times are sure to come at some time or later..

there goes my forever, there goes my life

"I was not aware that the came only to love me for a while..
I was aiming to be with him forever, but he's not willing to work it all out..
while I was busy planning for us, he was busy planning his life with another person..
It hurts too much, but all I can do is watch him walk away..

and that's the end of it...

There goes my forever..
There goes my life..

I know he's gone, but holding on to him has become my way to keep me alive.."

='(

take it, let it

Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets..
So love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don't, and believe that everything happens for a reason..
Know a good thing when you see it and don't let it slip away..
If you get a chance, take it.. If it changes your life, let it..
Nobody said it would be easy, they just said it would be worth it..
