all the right reason...


things happen for a reason... do they ? our lives are shaped by people who love us and people who refuse to love us. everyone has their reasons for keeping people away, an instinct to protect yourself from getting hurt...it's part of human nature...life can take your dreams and turn them upside down, friends will talk about you when you're not around, reality can really cut you down to size, but don't ever lose the light in your eyes. People make you promises they'll never keep, soon you'll know why people say talk is cheap, life resembles one big compromise but don't ever lose the light in your eyes ...
somehow, we learn it's impossible to please everyone so stop trying and be who we really are and then live with that decision...

i am not perfect but you make me want to be...


Wait for the one who pursues you, the one who will make an ordinary moment seem magical, the kind who brings out the best in you and makes you want to be a better person. wait for the one who will be your best friend, the person who will drop everything to be with you at anytime of the day no matter what the circumstances. wait for the one who makes you smile like no other and when smiles you know the person need you. wait for the one who wants to show you off to the world when you're wearing sweats and no makeup. most of all wait for the one who will put you at the center of his universe, cause obviously he's at the center of yours.
Love the ones who love you, not the ones who smile at you because the one that smiles at you might be lying to you, but the one that loves you might be suffering for you.
There are many lessons in life that only time can teach you, like how much you love someone, its nearly impossible to know that, until you spend your days without them, and then there are those lessons that you can learn only through the beating of your heart, and through feeling such strong emotions that you can barely breathe, then finally, the essence of time and the power of your heart crossing paths, and the only knowledge your left with is the realization that time is the one thing that keeps you from letting go, no, its never the embracing, or the kisses, not the laughter or the tears, only time....

till death do us apart...


Someone once said, it is easier to die than watching someone you love die. What does death mean to you ? Death reminded me of the future. If i die today...what is going to happen to my family ? who is going to take care of my mom ? do we have enough financial support ? so many questions lingered thru my mind.
Despite the pain and hurt we go thru in losing someone so close to our hearts, we are constantly reminded that life goes on. Everything changes eventually. That’s just the way life is. And you have no control over it. Suddenly people you thought would always be there disappear. People die. Silence is the most powerful cry. Sometimes we cry and sometimes we give up..but giving up doesn't always mean that we are weak; sometimes it means that we aren't strong enough to let go.Life is about change, sometimes it's painful, sometimes it's beautiful, but most of the time it's both. Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength.
Often we allow ourselves to be upset by small things we should despise and forget. We lose many irreplaceable hours brooding over grievances that, in a year's time, will be forgotten by us and by everybody. No, let us devote our life to worthwhile actions and feelings, to great thoughts, real affections and enduring undertakings.Time goes by so fast, people go in and out of your life. You must never miss the opportunity to tell the people in your life how much they mean to you. Sometimes, no matter how much faith we have, we lose people. But we never forget them. And sometimes, it's those memories that give us the faith to go on

Alas...dying is not the end of everything. We think it is. But what happens on earth is only the beginning....

forgiving is not forgetting, it's letting go of the hurt..


Sometimes people just say and do things that you just wonder to yourself, 'Why? Why are they doing this? Don't they know I have feelings too?' And it's sad to know that sometimes these people are your friends.
To let go isn't to forgot, not to think about, or ignore. It doesn't leave feelings of anger, jealousy, or regret. Letting go isn't about winning or losing. It's not about pride and it's not about how you appear, and it's not obsessing or dwelling on the past. Letting go isn't blocking memories or thinking sad thoughts, and doesn't leave emptiness, hurt, or sadness. It's not about giving in or giving up.
Letting go is learning and experiencing and growing. To let go is to be thankful for the experiences that made you laugh, made you cry, and made you grow. It's about all that you have, all that you had, and all that you will soon gain. Letting go is having the courage to accept change, and the strength to keep moving. Letting go is growing up. It is realizing that the heart can sometimes be the most potent remedy. To let go is to open a door, and to clear a path and set yourself free.
Should i let go and forgive a friend who deceived me ?
Let go maybe..
forgive..never...

someday...



Someday
When the earth and heaven are one
And we all walk together
hand in hand
You'll have a place in your heart for me
But for now, it's only just a dream
Until you see how I care for you...
