One-to-Ten

One heartbreak,
Two eyes crying,
Three words never said again,
Four hands that won't be held,
Five mornings you'll pass him in the halls,
Six love notes, ripped and torn,
Seven days a week you'll think of him,
Eight sad songs at night before bed,
Nine wishes that never came true,
Ten years before he realize that it has always been you..

Like Trees Do

The leaves of trees just keep falling.

Lesson?

You can't always keep someone to yourself forever.
Sometimes, you have to let go.
Yet, you have to remain standing..
like trees do..

expectations

Don't expect anything from anyone,
expectations hurt.
When you don't expect,
every moment is a surprise..
and every surprise brings happiness.

Cliche But Bites

"If you love what you're doing,
you'll never get bored."

same with..

"If you love that someone,
you'll never get tired."

Regrets and Learnings

There are things we regret:
words we wish had gone unsaid,
beginnings that had bitter endings,
chances we threw away,
roads we should have never taken,
signs we did not see,
hearts we hurt needlessly,
and wounds we wish we could mend.

The past can't be rewritten,
but it can make you stronger.

Be thankful for every change, for every heartbreak, for every scar.
Pages were turned, bridges were burned, but you..
You have learned..

Distance

One grows distant from another not because of hatred, not because of indifference, but because of fear.

There's the fear that the hurt gets greater as one gets closer;
a recognition of the rendency to fall deeply, and consequently drown in a quicksand of stupid irrationalities.

Sometimes,
what drives one away is not the absence of emotion,
but the overwhelming presence of it.

Christmas

Instead of being a time of unusual behavior, Christmas is perhaps the only time in the year when people can obey their natural impulses and express their true sentiments without feeling self-conscious and, perhaps, foolish.

Christmas, in short, is about the only chance a man has to be himself.

~Francis C. Farley

Standards

Being kind isn't enough to win someone's heart.

We're too 'into' finding that perfect someone. Perfect beauty, intelligence and personality.

Then after the long search, we find ourselves falling helplessly with someone who's not even half of our ideal person.

We fail to realize that no matter how much standards we set, we'd always end up not with someone we want but with someone we can't resist falling for.

my real purpose

I can't weep for the rest of my life, 'coz I wasn't born to feel pain all the time..
Someday I'll find courage to let everybody know that my real purpose is to love..
and not to cry..

for the sake of holding on..

Love doesn't count on the laughter that you shared
but the number of tears and pain that you try to get over with
for the sake of holding on..

rules of love

Rule # 1:
Know him / her: Baka naghahanap lang sya ng kalinga habang hindi sila okay ng present jowa nya.

Rule # 2:
Mag-ingat sa mga Pasweet: Naku po! dami nyan! Wag magpagoyo sa mga pa-fall na mga taong ito.

Rule # 3:
Know something about their past: Malay mo, isa ito sa kanyang mga revenge.

Rule # 4:
Know your status: dahil hindi sa lahat ng oras, kailangan ng relasyon!

Rule # 5:
Control your feelings, suppress if necessary: dahil hindi lahat ng maganda sa pakiramdam, TAMA!

rejoice

Life is a matter of perspective,
either you complain because roses have thorns,
or u can rejoice because thorns have roses.

"DUMP me now, CHEAT me never!"

Why do girls require honesty in a relationship?
It's because they don't want to live on lies!

Keep this in mind:
"Girls rather choose to be DUMPED!
than being CHEATED!"

favorite sounds

An enlightening pastime is to make a list of favorite things that impact the senses. Not only does it provide a challenging exercise for the mind and memory, but it sharpens our appreciation of there golden moments in time..

Let me share it with you my ten favourite sounds:

--A distant train whistle;
--A mother talking to her new baby;
--The scrunch of leaves on a bright day;
--A sound of videoke machine;
--A hound baying in the woods at night;
--The absolute silence of a mountain lake at sunset;
--A crackling fire on a bitter day;
--A stadium crowd singing the national anthem;
--The excitement of children upon seeing ice cream;
--And lastly my love ones voices.

Try the exercise for favorite sounds, smells, or sights.
You may learn something about yourself.

looking for love?

We don't look for love..
because it's lonely to be watching 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 our meals..
for bad hair days..
and for the simplicity in us..

Love is an act of acceptance..
that with all our imperfections,
we are accepted and loved..

Relations to Love

What is SEXY?

-- sexy is standing in the rain with someone and letting that someone push you against the hood of your car, tearing your shirt, as he kiss you with the intent never to stop..

What is CUTE?

-- cute is young and inexperienced. It's holding hands in the car and kssing at the red lights..

What is PASSION?

-- it's knowing what you want and stopping at nothing until you get it..

What is LOVE?

-- It's the balance of all of these things, in your mind, heart, body and soul.

..Find that someone who'll love you even if heaven and earth collide.

ahuh

Why is it hard to forgive when you were hurt,
Especially when the one who hurt you is very special?

But the truth is, I'm not mad at the things he did..
I just can't accept that I have no importance to the person I value the most..

lonely

You know what lonely means?

It's when you go to sleep at night without anyone to say I love you..
and when you wake up, you open your eyes, you realize that nothing's change..
..you're still alone..

hmp! to them..

It doesn't matter what other people think or say..
I DON'T LIVE TO PLEASE THEM!!

What matter is I've made the most of what I have, I had fun, I learned from what I've done and lived through it all despite the gossips and intrigues..

That's being real..
Just live a life, fearless of other peoples shadow..

laught til your stomach aches

Don't take life seriously..
Always find time to laugh..
Remember that laughter will not only add years to your life..
..but will definitely add life to your years..

learnings

I've learned that when you plan to get even with someone, you're only letting that person continue to hurt you..

I've learned that ignoring the facts do not change the facts..

I've learned that the easiest way to grow as a person is to surround yourself with people smarter than you are..

I've learned that noone is perfect until you fall in love with them..

and I've learned that life is tough,
but you can be tougher..

single and available

it's tough to stay single in this world,
where everybody expect you to be with somebody.
but staying single is not having no choice,
rather it's an opportunity to make intelligent choices..

one great love

It's sad to let a good love pass you by, just because you're too scared to be hurt..
One great love comes only once in a lifetime..
It may not last forever but it's the best you could ever find..

Real Love is..

..the look in someone's eyes that is meant for you alone..
a gentle kiss that says everything will be fine..
a hand held in just the right way at just the right time..
a secret told by one heart guarded by another..
a belief that someone knows you as no one else can..
the li'l day-to-day acts of thoughtfulness that go unmentioned but not unnoticed..
a feeling that no matter where you are, the deepest part of you remains with the one you love..
a dream that comes true with time + trust + a li'l luck..

Love is a promise of forever..

9 Hardest Times of Your Life

1. Being questioned when you yourself don't understand.
2. Pretending to be innocent of what you know about.
3. Trying to forget something you know you never will.
4. Admitting you were wrong after you have been so insistent that you were right.
5. Debating with yourself.
6. Accepting the fact that somethings are not meant to be.
7. Trying to understand when you just can't.
8. Realizing that you have been tricked after you've given your whole trust.
9. Parting and letting go of someone you've learned to love..

God loves me (and you)!

God is so crazy about me (and you)..

He sends me sunrise every morning,
flowers year round, rainbow after rain..
He owns the universe but prefers to live in my heart..

be sure(r)

When you're in love,
never put yourself on a situation
where you're not sure
where you stand in a persons life.

Never assume, never expect,
so that if they choose to drop you,
you have enough strength to move on..

Find Him!

Find someone who wants to kiss your lips everyday..
who lift and hug you when you're jealous..
who patiently keep silent when you're mad..
who fix your hair just to see your face..
and the one who wants to have lunch with you with his family..
the one who share his drinks with you..
who squeeze your hand together when you squeeze his..
and the one who'll want to cut work just to have a date with you..
find someone who plans and imagine his future with you seven years from now..

and when you find him..
NEVER LET HIM GO!!!

he was..

He used to be so sweet and everything seemed so nice when we're together.
But suddenly everything changed..

Now, do i miss him?
No...

I miss who I thought he was..
