some lessons are best learned thru pain, sometimes our visions clear only after our eyes are washed with tears. sometimes we have to be broken so we can be whole again. if God meant the day to be perfect, He would not hve invented tomorrow. so dont worry if today wasnt perfect because you still have tomorrow. and if theres anything in your heart that feels right, go after it no matter what it takes.

i guess that love does fade.
that sometimes the heart does get tired of longing, of hoping. that sometimes you just have to accept the fact that some things can never be and that you should be contented with things as they are.

leaving is a choice. staying is a choice. but you can never really ask someone to stay or leave.

its a choice they have to make for themselves and sometimes no matter how much you beg someone to stay or how hard you try to make someone leave, you really have no control over what they will choose.

if the two eventually fell in love, despite the disparity of their ages and academic levels, this only lends substance to the truism that the heart has reasons for its own which reason does not know.

if its taking all your strength. if its killing your heart. if its making you bear too much pain. and its making you ignore everything else. make sure its worth it. otherwise...

LET IT GO.

theres no point in sacrificing your happiness when it doesnt conform to what your heart dictates. as everyone is created uniquely, everyone does get a right to choose where they'd be happy. if it ensures lifetime happiness, then go for it. you wouldnt want a miserable life faking the world with smiles.

its so much easier to say that you dont love someone, than try to explain to everyone all the reasons why you still do.

always remember that...

if a person loved you once, after a hundred years, there will be some of that love no matter how much he denies it.

if your heart gets broken, dont be bitter. dont turn your back on love. just keep on trying. because theres no better remedy for love... but to love again. :(

for years i kept a sign on my desk that helped me maintain the right perspective concerning yesterday. it simply said... "yesterday ended last night."

nothing dries sooner than tears. life can never promise to be always happy, but life gets better after you accept things you cant change.

its funny thinking that yesterday, u find youself deeply inlove with that person and a hilarious thinking that today, you find yourself denyin what just happened.

"be thankful for what you have, you'll end up having more. if you concentrate on what you dont have, you will never, ever have enough."

Oprah Winfrey

sometimes you cant stop yourself from hoping for yesterday to come back..
especially when yesterday was the only future you ever wanted and needed from the start.

just now i have learned..that i have to be thankful that i dont get everything that i desire. because if i did, there would be nothing to look forward to. i have learned to be thankful when i dont know something. for it is the one that gives me the opportunity to learn. i have to be thankful for the difficult times, because during those times i learn. and i have to be thankful for my limitations, coz they give me opportunities to grow.

one great form of wealth is kindness. it cant be diminished no matter how much you give. it increases the more it is shared.

2Pet3:17-18

be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of lawless men and fall from your secure position. but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord.

faith is like swimming. if you struggle, you'll sink. if you rest, you'll float. when you pray, dont beg or struggle... simply trust. thats how faith works.

"one thing worse than a quitter is the person who is afraid to begin." ...doing your best is more important than being the best.

There are two types of people:
those who come into a roo and say, "well, here i am."
and those who come in and say, "ah, there you are.."
makes sense.
