While I was walking, I stopped for a while and thought of the things I don't have, then I realized that the happiest moment of my life isn't necessarily the best of everything, but to make the most of everything that comes along the way. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.
In the gateway of my heart, I put a sign that says "no trespassing", but love came laughing and said "I enter everywhere". Love knows no reason, love knows no lie, love defies all reason, love has no eyes but love is not blind - love sees, but it doesn't mind. Love is when you take away the feeling, the passion, and the romance. And yet you find out that you still care for that person. Love is supposed to be the most wonderful feeling. It should inspire you and give you joy and strength but sometimes, the thing that gives you joy and strength can also hurt you in the end. Love starts with a smile, develops with a kiss and ends with a tear. When you love you must not expect anything in return. If you do, you're not loving but investing. If you love, you must prepare to accept the pain. For if you expect happiness, you're not loving but using. Don't go for looks, it can deceive you. Don't go for wealth, even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because only a smile makes a day seem bright.
The beginning of love is letting those we love be perfectly them and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise, we only love the reflection of ourselves we find in them. Never try to impress someone to make him/her fall in love with you because when you do, you'll have to keep those standards for the rest of your life. A sad thing about life is when you meet someone who means a lot to you, only to find out that it was never bound to stay and you just have to let him/her go. Maybe God wants us to meet few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the right one, we would know how to be grateful of the gift. We can't often see the reason why we don't get what we want, just sit tight and be happy. But remember we pass this way only once. LOVE - no matter how hard you look for it, you won't see it. But when you're about to give up, it comes. Sometimes the love that we are looking for is just in front of us - too close for our eyes to see, so close your eyes and let your heart see for itself. There are things you love to hear but you don't hear it from the person who says it with his heart. Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want it, it doesn't mean that they don't love you with all they have. There are so many stars in the sky, some are too radiant to be noticed. God never closes a door without opening a window. He always gives us something better when he takes away. Heartbreaks exist for us to learn from them. In relationships, thank God when you are hurting or crying, there you are given a chance to measure the importance of the relationship, of the person and of yourself. When you grow, don't become a bitter person because you experienced suffering. We have no right to ask when sorrow comes, "why does it happen to me?", unless we ask the same question in every moment of happines that comes our way. When God put a tear in your eyes, it's because he wants to put a rainbow in your heart.
There are some things we never want to let go or people we never want to leave behind, but keep in mind that letting go is not the end of the world. It's the beginning of a new life. The brightest future will always be based on the forgotten past and letting go of your past failures and heartbreaks. To let go is not to deny but accept. To let go is not to regret the past but to grow and live for the future. To let go is to fear less and to love more. Don't be afraid to break someone's heart or leave your heart broken because that's how relationships are. When you're young, they are stepping stones for the main one. Follow your heart, it might not be always right but despite the pain you will have memories that will make you smile every once in a rare while. It's better you lose the person you have now and have him/her later, than having him/her now and lose him/her forever. Love has its time, its season and its reasons. You can't ask it to stay, you can only embrace it when it comes and be glad that for a moment in your life, it was yours. We can never go back a day. So don't let each moment pass you by. For with a blink of an eye, that moment will go and the feeling will die. It might be too late when you open your eyes. Don't be too busy planning the life that you're going to have, that you fail to appreciate the one that's already been given. Dream what you want to dream, go where you want to go, be what you want to be, because you only have one life and only one chance to do all the things you want in life. We were not given dreams without the power to make it come true. A heart in love never loses hope but believes in the promises of love, no matter how long the time and how far the distance. Never say goodbye when you still want to try - never give up when you can still take it - never say you don't love the person anymore when you can't let go. True love doesn't have a happy ending, that's because love doesn't have an ending.
