What Actually Love
Is
Why do we close our eyes when
we sleep? When we cry?
When we imagine? When
we kiss?
This is because the most beautiful things in
the world are unseen.
We are all a little weird
and life's a little weird
and when we find someone whose weirdness
is compatible with ours,
we join up with them
and fall in
mutual weirdness and call it love.
There are things that we never
want to let go of,
people we never want to leave behind,
but keep in mind that letting go isn't the end of the world,
it's the beginning of a new life.
Happiness lies for those who
cry, those who hurt,
those who have searched and
those who have tried.
For only they can appreciate the importance of the people
who have touched their lives.
A great love? It's when you shed tears and still
you care for him,
it's when he ignores you and still you long
for him.
It's when he begins to love another and yet you still smile
and say I'm happy for you.
If love fails, set yourself
free,
let your heart spread its wings and fly again.
Remember you may find love and lose it, but when love dies,
you
never have to die with it.
The strongest people are not
those who always win
but those who stand back up when they fall.
Somehow along the course of
life,
you learn about yourself and realize
there should never be regrets,
only a lifelong appreciation of the
choices you've made.
A true friend understands
when you say, I forgot,
waits forever when you say, just a minute,
stays when you say leave me alone,
opens the
door even before you knock and says can I come in?
Loving is not how you forget
but how you forgive,
not how you listen but how you understand,
not what you see but how you feel,
and not how
you let go but how you hold on.
It's more dangerous to weep
inwardly rather than outwardly.
Outward tears can be wiped away while secret tears scar forever.
In love, very rarely do we
win
but when love is true, even if you lose,
you still win just for having the tingle of loving someone
more than
you love yourself.
There comes a time when we
have to stop loving someone
not because that person has stopped loving us
but because we have found out
that they'd
be happier if we let go.
It's best to wait for the
one you want than settle for one that's available.
Best to wait for the one you love than one who is around.
Best
to wait for the right one
because life is too short
to waste on just someone.
Sometimes the one you love
turns out to be the one who hurts you the most,
and sometimes the friend who takes you into his arms
and cries when
you cry
turns out to be the love you never knew you wanted.
If you really love someone
never let go,
don't believe that letting go means that you love best,
instead fight for your love,
that's what
true love is.
Laugh to your heart's content;
you cannot go
through life without it.
