You Never Die From A Broken Heart, You Simply Wish You Did.

We have all had our hearts broken in a relationship. The amount of pain we experience can be unbearable. How do we move on and try to heal our broken heart?

Have you ever felt like someone ripped your heart out? That feeling can leave one depressed, distraught and the feeling of desperation and major depression. The old addage time heals all wounds its just that a saying, but in time things will get better and you will begin to live again. Nothing is worse than the breaking of your heart when a steamy relationship is over. And then watch them go when its over, is really hard. And as we mature, the number of people breaking our hearts goes on and on, and seems to hurt even more as we try to move on with our everyday lives.

While dealing with bad relationships, the initial thing is to allow them to go completely. Keep in mind that a relationship over is absolutely inevitable and above all, inescapable. Try to develop your confidence that someone better is coming to join you someday. There is a replacement for everything. After a relationship over, if we return to that person with whom we had bad relationships; they will perceive us no more than a beaten personality whom they had defeated. Hence, we would risk embarrassment and falling into the same pattern over and over again. So let it go when its over.

A perfect way to just let go is to refuse to give in to the temptation to revisit that person and simply keep away from calling them on the cell phone, sending emails or getting in touch with them otherwise. When you have separations with someone for whom you still feel from the core of your heart, it's attractive to allow them make all the rules so as to keep them in your life. The difficulty is, if there is no hope of squaring off, you are just drawing out the suffering - and it will take even more time for your broken heart to recover.

When someone there is breaking your heart, it’s all right to feel bad. Give yourself time to recover when its over. Go on a walk by yourself, or you can listen to your favorite upbeat or sad music which accurately translates your feelings. Listening to sad kind of music will help you to realize that the relationship is over and it’s time to think about something new. Every feeling has its own worth, as every feeling tells us something novel about our own personalities. Just as we take pleasure in being happy, we can take pleasure in being sad for when a relationship is over; expressing that we are not going to feel the same way forever. Because the sun does not shine every morning does not mean it will continue raining forever.

Talk to someone about your relationship over. Your best buddy will let you voice all of your fury and frustration and will raise your spirits afterwards. If you keep all your depression and grief solely within the boundaries of your own heart after a breaking up, you might end up blaming yourself for bad relationships, and you could miss the boat for making deeper relations with the rest of your buddies, too.

They say time heals all wounds! Undoubtedly, this short phrase might help you in terms of a relationship being over. With the passage of time, 'today' will slip into the past, and you won’t even remember the heartache at all. As we learn to grow from our experience, each experience good or bad will influence us in every way down the road. So do not look at this as wasted time but as a growing experience in our own lives. Live and learn is what is boils down to and we of course hope to avoid the same issue the next time we decide to open our hearts to another person.

Never let go of Hope

One day you will see that it
all has finally come
together.

What you have always
wished for has finally come
to be.

You will look back and laugh
at what has passed and
you will ask yourself,
"How did i get through all of that?"

Just never let go of hope
Just never suit dreaming and never let love depart from
your life.

This is what i am always doing, never let go of hope even at times that i feel lost and don't know what i am really heading for..
As time passes by, the experiences that i've gone through made me realize what i really want and what could really make me happy..I am still young but somehow , I already have a concept of what i want to happen many years from now..and with the people surrounding me now, i am confident enough to say that even if life never seems to be the way i want it to be,.it would be easier for me to survive and live happily in this earthly life,..I just always have to put in mind that" I should never let go of Hope "...

....

one grows distant from one 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 tendency 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..

never too far

Day and Night are linked in a way few things are.
There cannot be one without the other,
yet they cannot exist at the same time
How would it feel?
To be always together, yet forever apart?

this is for you

You should ask me first before concluding anything for i am the one who exactly knows what i really think and what i really feel. If u do not believe me it only shows you do not trust me and you do not really love me. They can easily say bad things about me but i don't give a damn on them for they don't mean anything to me. It hurts me a lot to be judged for something that i don't really know. What is running through my mind now is that maybe i'm not good enough but i swear i'm trying my best to work it out.

There was a time that a friend told me that i do have a very catchy personality. He said its not bad to be kind all the time but sometimes i should not be for others tend to misinterpret this kindness that they thought im interested to them even if i'm not. Now i know what he is talking about.

From now on, ill be practicing to be snob at times. I hope that it would be enough to please you and to make you happy. (I know its not good but i have to)

A teacher's lesson


There is a story many years ago of an elementary teacher. Her name was Mrs. Thompson. And as she stood in front of her 5th grade class on the very first day of school, she told the children a lie. Like most teachers, she looked at her students and said that she loved them all the same.

But that was impossible, because there in the front row, slumped in his seat, was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard. Mrs. Thompson had watched Teddy the year before and noticed that he didn't play well with the other children, that his clothes were messy and that he constantly needed a bath. And Teddy could be unpleasant. It got to the point where Mrs. Thompson would actually take delight in marking his papers with a broad red pen, making bold X's and then putting a big "F" at the top of his papers.

At the school where Mrs. Thompson taught, she was required to review each child's past records and she put Teddy's off until last. However, when she reviewed his file, she was in for a surprise.
Teddy's first grade teacher wrote, "Teddy is a bright child with a ready laugh. He does his work neatly and has good manners. He is a joy to be around."

His second grade teacher wrote, "Teddy is an excellent student, well liked by his classmates, but he is troubled because his mother has a terminal illness and life at home must be a struggle."
His third grade teacher wrote, "His mother's death has been hard on him. He tries to do his best but his father doesn't show much interest and his home life will soon affect him if some steps aren't taken."

Teddy's fourth grade teacher wrote, "Teddy is withdrawn and doesn't show much interest in school. He doesn't have many friends and sometimes sleeps in class."

By now, Mrs. Thompson realized the problem and she was ashamed of herself. She felt even worse when her students brought her Christmas presents, wrapped in beautiful ribbons and bright paper, except for Teddy's. His present which was clumsily wrapped in the heavy, brown paper that he got from a grocery bag.

Mrs. Thompson took pains to open it in the middle of the other presents. Some of the children started to laugh when she found a rhinestone bracelet with some of the stones missing, and a bottle that was one quarter full of perfume. But she stifled the children's laughter when she exclaimed how pretty the bracelet was, putting it on, and dabbing some of the perfume on her wrist.

Teddy Stoddard stayed after school that day just long enough to say, "Mrs. Thompson, today you smelled just like my Mom used to." After the children left she cried for at least an hour. On that very day, she quit teaching reading, and writing, and arithmetic. Instead, she began to teach children.

Mrs. Thompson paid particular attention to Teddy. As she worked with him, his mind seemed to come alive. The more she encouraged him, the faster he responded. By the end of the year, Teddy had become one of the smartest children in the class and, despite her lie that she would love all the children the same, Teddy became one of her "teacher's pets."

A year later, she found a note under her door, from Teddy, telling her that she was still the best teacher he ever had in his whole life. Six years went by before she got another note from Teddy. He then wrote that he had finished high school, third in his class, and she was still the best teacher he ever had in his whole life.

Four years after that, she got another letter, saying that while things had been tough at times, he'd stayed in school, had stuck with it, and would soon graduate from college with the highest of honors. He assured Mrs. Thompson that she was still the best and favorite teacher he ever had in his whole life.

Then four more years passed and yet another letter came. This time he explained that after he got his bachelor's degree, he decided to go a little further. The letter explained that she was still the best and favorite teacher he ever had. But now his name was a little longer - the letter was signed, Theodore F. Stoddard, M.D.

The story doesn't end there. You see, there was yet another letter that spring. Teddy said he'd met this girl and was going to be married. He explained that his father had died a couple of years ago and he was wondering if Mrs. Thompson might agree to sit in the place at the wedding that was usually reserved for the mother of the groom. Of course, Mrs. Thompson did. And guess what? She wore that bracelet, the one with several rhinestones missing. And she made sure she was wearing the perfume that Teddy remembered his mother wearing on their last Christmas together.


They hugged each other, and Dr. Stoddard whispered in Mrs. Thompson's ear, "Thank you Mrs. Thompson for believing in me. Thank you so much for making me feel important and showing me that I could make a difference."
Mrs. Thompson, with tears in her eyes, whispered back. She said, "Teddy, you have it all wrong. You were the one who taught me that I could make a difference. I didn't know how to teach until I met you."

I love you


I have a boyfriend who grew up with me. His name is Jin. I always thought of him as a friend until last year, when we went to a trip from a club. I found that I fell in love with him. Before that trip was over, I took a step and confessed my love for him. And soon, we became a pair of lovers, but we loved each other in different ways. I always concentrated on him only, but by his side, there were so many other girls. To me, he was the only one, but to him, maybe I was just another girl…

“Jin, do you want to go watch a movie?” I asked.“I can’t”“Why? You need to study at home?” I felt disappointment grabbing me.“No… I am going to meet a friend…”
He was always like that. He met girls in front of me, like it was nothing. To him, I was just a girlfriend. The word ‘love’ only came out from my mouth. Since I knew him, I had never heard him say ‘I love you’ before. To us, there weren’t any anniversaries at all. He didn’t say anything from the first day and it continued till 100 days…200days… Everyday, before we say goodbye, he would just hand me a doll, everyday, without fail. I don’t know why…

Then one day…

Me: Um, Jin, I …Jin: What…don’t drag, just say..Me: I love you.Jin: ……you….um, just take this doll and go home.That was how he ignored my ‘three words’ and handed me the doll. Then he disappeared, like he was running away. The dolls I received from him everyday, filled my room, one by one. There were many…Then one day came, my 15th year old birthday. When I got up in the morning, I pictured a party with him, and stranded myself in my room, waiting for his call. But… lunch passed, dinner passed… and soon the sky was dark… he still didn’t call. It was already tiring to look at the phone anymore. Then around 2am in the morning, he suddenly called me and woke me from my sleep. He told me to come out of the house. Still, I felt joy and I ran out happily.

Me: Jin…


Jin: Here…take this…Again, he handed me a little doll.Me: What’s this?Jin: I didn’t give it to you yesterday, so I am giving it to you now. I’m going home now, bye.Me: Wait, wait! Do you know what today is?Jin: Today? Huh?I felt so sad, I thought he would remember my birthday. He turned around and walked away like nothing had happen.Then I shouted… “Wait…”Jin: You have something to say?Me: Tell me, tell me you love me…Jin: What?!Me: Tell meI put my pathetic self behind and clung on to him. But he just said simple cold words and left.“I don’t want to say…that I love someone so easily, if you are desperate to hear it, then find someone else.”That was what he said. Then he ran off. My legs felt numb… and I collapsed to the ground. He didn’t want to say it easily… How could he…. I felt that… Maybe he is not the right guy for me…After that day, I stranded myself at home crying, just crying. He didn’t call me, although I was waiting. He just continued handing me a little doll every morning outside my house. That’s how those dolls piled up in my room… everyday.

After a month, I got myself together and went to school. But what made the pain resurface was that… I saw him on a street… with another girl… He had a smile on his face, one that he never showed me…as he touched the doll… I ran straight back home and looked at the dolls in my room, and tears fell… Why did he gave these to me… Those dolls are probably picked out by some other girls…In a fit of anger, I threw the dolls around. Then suddenly, the phone rang. It was him. He told me to come out to the bus stop outside my house. I tried to calm myself down and walked to the bus stop. I kept reminding myself that I am going to forget him, that… it’s going to end. Then he came into my sight, holding a big doll.

Jin: Jo, I thought you were pissed, you really came?I couldn’t help hating him, acting like nothing had happen and joking around. Soon, he held out the doll as usual…Me: I don’t need it. Jin: What….why…I grabbed the doll from his hands and threw it on the road.Me: I don’t need this doll, I don’t need it anymore!! I don’t want to see a person like you again!I spitted out all the words that were inside me. But unlike other days, his eyes very shaking.“I’m sorry” He apologized in a tiny voice. He then walked over to the road to pick up the doll…Me: You stupid! Why are you picking up the doll?! Just throw it away!!!
But he ignored me and just went to pick the doll.

Then…


Honk~ Honk~With a loud honk, a big truck was heading towards him.“Jin! Move! Move away!” I shouted… But he didn’t hear me, he squatted down and picked up the doll.“Jin, move!” HONK~!! “Boom!” That sound, so terrifying.That’s how he went away from me. That’s how he went away without even opening his eyes to say one word to me.After that day, I had to go through everyday with guiltiness and the sadness of losing him… And after spending two months like a crazy person… I took out the dolls.

Those were the only gifts he left me since the day we started going out. I remembered the days I spent with him and started to count the days… when we were in love…

“One…two… three…” That was how… I started to count the dolls…“Four hundred and eighty four… four hundred and eighty five…” It all ended with 485 dolls.I then started to cry again, with a doll in my arms. I hugged it tightly, then suddenly…

“I love you~, I love you~” I dropped the dolls,shocked.

“I….lo..ve…you??” I picked up the dolls and pressed its stomach.

“I love you~ I love you~” It can’t be! I pressed all the dolls’ stomach as it piled on the side.“I love you~”“I love you~”“I love you~”Those words came out non-stop. I…love you… Why didn’t I realize that….That his heart was always by my side, protecting me. Why didn’t I realize that he love me this much… I took out the doll under the bed and pressed it’s stomach, that was the last doll, the one that fell on the road. It had his blood stain on it. The voice came out, the on that I was missing so much…

“Jo…Do you know what today is? We’ve been loving each other for 486 days. Do you know what 486 is? I couldn’t say I love you…. Um… since I was too shy… If you forgive me and take this doll, I will say that I love you… everyday… till I die… Jo… I love you…”
The tears came flowing out of me. Why? Why? I asked god, why do I only know about all this now? He can’t be by my side, but he loved me until his last minute…
For that… and for that reason… to me… it became courage… to live a beautiful life.

A beautiful heart

The more hurt and pain you have gone thru in life, the stronger and morebeautiful your heart will be.....

One day a young man was standing in the middle of the town proclaiming that he had the most beautiful heart in the whole valley. A large crowd gathered and they all admired his heart for it was perfect. There was not a mark or a flaw in it. Yes, they all agreed it truly was the most beautiful heart they had ever seen. The young man was very proud and boasted more loudly about his beautiful heart.
Suddenly, an old man appeared at the front of the crowd and said, "Why your heart is not nearly as beautiful as mine." The crowd and the young man looked at the old man's heart. It was beating strongly, but full of scars, it had places where pieces had been removed and other pieces put in, but they didn't fit quite right and there were several jagged edges. In fact, in some places there were deep gouges where whole pieces missing.
The people stared. How can he say his heart is more beautiful?? they thought. The young man looked at the old man's heart and saw its state and laughed. "You must be joking," he said. "Compare your heart with mine, mine is perfect and yours is a mess of scars and tears."
"Yes," said the old man, "Yours is perfect looking but I would never trade with you. You see, every scar represents a person to whom I have given my love - I tear out a piece of my heart and give it to them, and often they give me a piece of their heart which fits into the empty place in my heart, but because the pieces aren't exact, I have some rough edges, which I cherish, because they remind me of the love we shared. Sometimes I have given pieces of my heart away, and the other person hasn't returned a piece of his heart to me. These are the empty gouges - giving love is taking a chance. Although these gouges are painful, they stay open, reminding me of the love I have for these people too, and I hope someday they may return and fill the space I have waiting. So now do you see what true beauty is?"
The young man stood silently with tears running down his cheeks. He walked up to the old man, reached into his perfect young and beautiful heart, and ripped a piece out. He offered it to the old man with trembling hands.
The old man took his offering, placed it in his heart and then took a piece from his old scarred heart and placed it in the wound in the young man's heart. It fit, but not perfectly, as there were some jagged edges.
The young man looked at his heart, not perfect anymore but more beautiful than ever, since love from the old man's heart flowed into his.
They embraced and walked away side by side.

worth waiting for...

It is indeed difficult to find a job that provides a good compensation enough to support a living. It is true that life has its own complexities,. no matter how hard we try, we still find ourselves caught in the middle of two choices. Just as how pathetic it may seem if you easily give up or how desperate you'll become if you refuse to stop on something.

It is true that all takes time and that patience is a virtue. But there's just a definite feeling of joy when we get what we want, just the way we imagined to achieve it in an instance. finally after 4 days of looking for a nice job, I already have three not one(hehe). I'm about to choose for the best offer.So, I do hope that this would be the best time for me to start building my future.

what we need

Today our youth are faced with tremendous challenges-and what do they need most? They need sound knowledge, sensible understanding, a guiding hand. They need real homes that are maintained in a clean and orderly manner. They need fathers who are really fathers and mothers who are mothers in the true sense of the word. They need more than mere progenitors or landlords. They are in need of loving, understanding parents, who give fatherly and motherly care, who put their families first in their lives, and who consider it their fundamental and most important duty to save their children, to so orient them and their thinking that they will not be swayed by every wind of persuasion which happens to blow in their direction. I am glad that I already have one,.

Happy father's Day Tatay!!!

"Lessons in life"

I believe with all my heart that the true value of a man is not in the man who can do the work of ten men, but rather in that man who can get ten men to work. I think this is where Heavenly Father recognizes the great value of a leader, not particularly in the man who can do the work of ten, but the man who can get ten men to respond and to do what needs to be done. I remember the story of the assembly line. There was a man back in San Pablo City putting hub caps on new automobiles. He became the best man on the line. He had been putting hub caps on for ten years. One day the boss came by and said, "How are things going?" "Well, I am glad you dropped by. I think I deserve a raise. I am the best man on this line. Do you realize I have ten years' experience putting hub caps on?" The boss smiled and said, "No, George. You have one year experience ten times. It doesn't take ten years' experience to learn how to put on a hub cap." Young people, think about that for a moment. If you find yourself down in a rut putting on hub caps, and you think you have got ten years' experience, you get out of that rut, and you reach out into other areas. You learn how to do new things, and you become useful in this world that we live in.

My Coffee Shop

Today I'm working at my imaginary coffee shop(I already told April about this). It's not just your usual coffee shop. It's special. It's were all of my friends gather to keep up with each other. The tables are made of wood-each one topped with a beautifully decorated table cloth-maybe white with lace edges or even crisp gingham blocks. It's spring outside, the sun is shining. There are fresh flowers on the tables. Bookshelvesline the walls with books and coffee cups placed on them. There is a bbeautiful scene painted on the ceiling. The chairs are comfy and very plush. There is a maroon sofa right inside the door. The front windows are lined with living plants. I don't just work here. I live here. This is where my mind goes when i want to be with my friends. It's happy here. Fresh and clean and i'm surrounded with living things. Every once in a while someone spills some 'milk'. But things always-always go back to normal. We all know we're loved and cared for. We all know that in our hearts we will never be alone. So please come and have a cup of coffee with me. I'm sure you'll love it here.The friendship will follow you always.

Just friends?


Doesn't it annoy you when a couple will go out for a period of time, have differences, break up, and both decide to JUST BE FRIENDS. I mean, do people really think that they can ever go back to the movies, have play fights and hang out on a buddy level? When deep down, all they can think about is whether the other has a new boyfriend/girlfriend, and wonder if they will get back together again. I don't really think that ex-couples will ever get over an inside awkwardness and think of each other as a mate. Or if a girl is asked out by a guy, and she just wants to be friends, as if he will think of her as a friend.

When it comes to just a guy and girl starting out and staying buddies, definitely, this works for everybody. But as far as guy and gals of roughly the same generation goes, no-one is totally free of romantic inclinations that come from deeeep down, whether people are aware of it or not. Anyway, that is one aspect of friendship that Bronwyn Polson can add to her home page if she wants it. Any one is free to argue with it if they want.

What I've learned about friendship

I've learned that there are many good friends around, but true best friends are hard to come by.

I've learned that sometimes a best friend is all you have.
I've learned that sometimes you wonder how she knew, but then you realize that's just how close you are.
I've learned that when you are true best friends, everyone else knows it.
I've learned that, most importantly of all, best friends will always be best friends, no matter what is happening in their lives, where they are, or what they are doing. A best friend is irreplaceable. This is the most important thing I could have ever been taught by a best friend.

still hopin' ( the agony of a broken hearted)

*All I want is for you to know me again, for me to be in your life. And, even if it can't happen right now, I would like to know that you hear my plea. I would like to know that I am not blocked from your memory*


*Heartbreak happens to the best of us, we can't hide from it and we can't deny it so just accept it, no matter how hard it is and no matter how much it hurts*

I remember you,.but i don't remember the feelings anymore..,

Somehow, the conversation mentioned your name. And someone asked if I knew you. Looking away I had a thought of all the times we had together, sharing laughter, tears, jokes and tons more...and then, without explanation you were gone. I looked to where they were waiting for an answer and then said softly, 'once I thought I did..,

till we meet again my beloved friends,..'





























It is indeed difficult to start a new life after graduation. You have to say goodbye to your school, your teachers and most especially to your friends who has been with you every single moment of your happineess,sadness,failures and success. To my beloved friends, let me share you some of my favorite lines about friendship, our friendship, that will forever be embedded in my heart...

"A memory lasts forever, never does it die. True friends stay together & never said goodbye."

You & I will meet again
When we're least expecting it
one day in some far off place
I will recognize your face
I won't say goodbye my friend
For you & I will meet again

"Don’t be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is necessary before we can meet again & meeting again, after moments or a lifetime, is certain for those who are friends."

"Our memories of yesterday will last a lifetime. We'll take the best, forget the rest and someday we'll find these are the best of times."

You never know how great your friends are until you have to say goodbye and leave them.

"Yesterday brought the beginning, tomorrow brings the end, and somewhere in the middle we became the best of friends."

"The happiest moments my heart knows are those in which it is pouring forth its affections to a few esteemed characters."

"No lapse of time or distance of place can lessen the friendship of those who are truly persuaded of each other's worth."

"How lucky I am to have known someone who was so hard to say goodbye to..

"As I reach a time of complete uncertainty, friends are my most precious asset."

"We laughed until we had to cry.
We gave love,
right down to our last goodbye.
We were the best
we thought we'd ever be
Just you and me,
for just a moment... "

"A part of you has grown in me, and so you see, it's you and me together forever. Never apart, maybe in distance, but never in heart."

"My father always used to say that when you die, if you've got five real friends, you've had a great life."

"In loneliness, in sickness, in confusion-the mere knowledge of friendship makes it possible to endure, even if the friend is powerless to help. It is enough that they exist. Friendship is not diminished by distance or time, by imprisonment or war, by suffering or silence. It is in these things that it roots most deeply. It is from these things that it flowers."

"Friends are forever, you might lose them but you'll never forget them "

"As we grow older, things must change, but they don't always have to end. Even though it is different now, you will always be my friend"

"Even if we don't all end up together...it will be alright...because we have years of memories to look back on"

"I hate to say goodbye but it only makes the next hello closer."

"You know that place between asleep and awake? Where you still remember dreaming? That's where I will always think of you."

"I know we'll be friends for life, sharing our dreams together. As we walk down the road we'll never think twice, our memories will last forever. And although we're off to different worlds, somehow we're together. And even though we're far apart, our memories are deep within our hearts. These are the times to remember, our memories will last...forever more..."

"The happiest moments my heart knows are those in which I spent my life with you, sharing our lives and building our friendship."

"Real Friendship is the sharing of all that the heart holds inside, it's tears and laughter, it's joy and broken dreams. Because friendship dwells in the heart where time and distance knows no boundaries, it understands the depth of true feelings and the sound of words unspoken. It is a true gift, for it connects the heart of soulmates together forever"

"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened."

A lifetime friendship







*As I look back on all that's happened -- growing up, growing together, changing you, changing me -- there were times when we dreamed together, when we laughed and cried together. As I look back on those days, I realize how much I'll truly miss you and how much I truly love you. The past may be gone forever...and what the future holds, our today’s make the memories of tomorrow. So, my lifetime friend, it is with all my heart that I send you my love, hoping that you'll always carry my smile with you, for all we have meant to each other and for what the future may hold.*

forever inlove

*You never realize how much you love someone until they're gone. You never realize that, yes, once their love surrounded you but now, what do you have? Memories. Why does love hurt so much, when it's supposed to be a good thing? Why do we dwell on the past, when the future is what matters? It's something that, yeah, I guess can't be helped but, maybe it's harder for you then it is for someone else. Faint smells of cologne, a song on the radio, a movie, or a single word, these are things that bring back those memories. But you can't hide from these things, because, they're there and no matter how hard you try to, they'll always be there. Even when you have moved on to the future, and things don't trigger the memories as much as before, they still do. You can't forget someone you've loved, you may want to, but you can't. Love cannot be forgotten, no matter how hard we try, and how much we think it will ease the pain, it will always be there, forever.*

getting crazy over you-

*The loneliest it gets is when the wind begins to chill and when I stand on top of your old street, the church top brings a stillness to me and I can't think of anything I'd rather do then have my heart broken by you. Could we be saved by intentions and hopes? Cuz I'm not alright, the night seems to swallow me whole and spit me out. Second guessing, I remember ever since that first day I saw you on the street, I've always wanted you in the worst way. And now I can't compete, and I'm so, and you're so, we're both so f***ed up. Isn't it time we try to get it right? I can't sleep on no more floors and I can't stay up no more nights. I'd like to know what's going on, could you please pick up the phone? I started a million letters to you but I couldn't finish any of them...*

with every goodbye "you learn"

*After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul. You learn that kisses aren't contracts and presents aren't promises. You learn that loving doesn't mean leaning and company doesn't always mean security, and you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much. After a while you learn to build all your dreams on today because tomorrows ground is to uncertain for dreams, and futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight. After a while you learn to accept your defeats with your head held with the grace of a woman and not the grief of a child. After a while you learn to plant your own garden and decorate your own soul instead of waiting for someone else to bring you flowers. And you learn that you really are strong, that you really do have self worth, and you can endure, and you learn and learn, with every "goodbye" you learn*

for all the graduates of batch 2009







We picked up our caps and gowns and all that senior stuff that's supposed to help us remember the good 'ole days, but some of the things that you remember most can't be put on paper. That day finally came, and you sat there with all of the friends that you have made over the years, you looked at your family and deep down you knew that this was a once in a lifetime moment. It was the last time in your life that these people would be together in one place. Yeah there would be reunions, but there was always that chance that one person couldn't make it there. You looked back on your time with these people and realized that it was short lived and that it didn't seem as if there was for everything you wanted to accomplish, sports, activities, duties, and all that good stuff. They called your name, your tassle got turned, and you got a piece of paper that said you were smart. Then you said good-bye, maybe to your town, and that school and your friends. You know that you can go back to visit, but there will be strangers in the halls and it's not the same. It's different, and you're different. But it's not the end. In fact, everything is just the beginning*

Let me love you

Once upon a time, there was once a guy who was very much in love with this girl. This romantic guy folded 1,000 pieces of papercranes as a gift to his girl. Although, at that time he was just a small executive in his company, his future doesn't seemed too bright, they were very happy together. Until one day, his girl told him she was going to Paris and will never come back. She also told him that she cannot visualise any future for the both of them, so let's go their own ways there and then... heartbroken, the guy agreed.

When he regained his confidence, he worked hard day and night, slogging his body and mind just to make something out of himself. Finally with all these hardwork and with the help of friends, this guy had set up his own company...

"You never fail until you stop trying." he always told himself. "I must make it in life!"One rainy day, while this guy was driving, he saw an elderly couple sharing an umbrella in the rain walking to some destination. Even with the umbrella, they were still drenched. It didn't take him long to realise those were his ex-girlfriend's parents. With a heart in getting back at them, he drove slowly beside the couple, wanting them to spot him in his luxury sedan. He wanted them to know that he wasn't the same anymore, he had his own company, car, condo, etc. He had made it in life!

Before the guy can realize, the couple was walking towards a cemetary,and he got out of his car and followed them...and he saw his ex-girlfriend, a photograph of her smiling sweetly as ever at him from her tombstone... and he saw his precious papercranes in a bottle placed beside her tomb. Her parents saw him. He walked over and asked them why this had happened. They explained, she did not leave for France at all. She was stricken ill with cancer. In her heart, she had believed that he will make it someday, but she did not want her illness to be his obstacle ... therefore she had chosen to leave him.

She had wanted her parents to put his papercranes beside her, because, if the day comes when fate brings him to her again he can take some of those back with him. The guy just wept ...the worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them but knowing you can't have them and will never see them again.
The End."

Life together

One fine day, an old couple around the age of 70, walks into a lawyer's office. Apparently, they are there to file a divorce.

Lawyer was very puzzled, after having a chat with them, he got their story....This couple had been quarreling all their 40 over yrs of marriage nothing ever seems to go right.
They hang on because of their children, afraid that it might affect their up-bringing. Now, all their children have already grown up, have their own family, there's nothing else the old couple have to worry about, all they wanted is to lead their own life free from all these years of unhappiness from their marriage, so both agree on a divorce....

Lawyer was having a hard time trying to get the papers done, because he felt that after 40 yrs of marriage at the age of 70, he couldnt understand why the old couple would still want a divorce..
While they were signing the papers, the wife told the husband.."I really love u, but i really cant carry on anymore, I'm sorry..""Its o.k, i understand.." said the husband. Lookin at this, the lawyer suggested a dinner together, just 3 of them,wife thought, why not, since they are still gonna be friends..

At the dining table, there was a silence of awkardness.The first dish was roasted chicken, immediately, the old man took the drumstick for the old lady.."take this, its your favourite.."
Looking at this, the lawyer thought maybe theres still a chance, but the wife was frowning when she answer.."This is always the problem, you always think so highly of yourself, never thought about how I feel, dont you know that i hate drumsticks?"

Little did she know that, over the years, the husband have been trying all ways to please her, little did she know that drumsticks was the husband's favourite. Little did he know that she never thought he understand her at all, little did he know that she hates drummsticks even though all he wants is the best for her.

That night, both of them couldnt sleep, toss and turn, toss and turn...after hours, the old man couldnt take it anymore, he knows that he still loves her, and he cant carry on life without her, he wants her back, he wants to tell her, he is sorry, he wanted to tell her "i love you"...

He picks up the phone, starting dialing her number....ringing never stops..he never stop dialing....

On the other side, she was sad, she couldn’t understand how come after all these years, he still doesnt understand her at all, she loves him a lot, but she just cant take it anymore....phone's ringing, she refuses to answer knowing that its him..."whats the point of talking now that its over...i have ask for it and now i wanna keep it this way, if not i will lose face.."she thought...still ringing...she have decided to pull out the cord...

Little did she remember, he have heart problems...

The next day, she received news that he had passed away...she rushed down to his apartment, saw his body, lying on the couch still holding on to the phone...he had a heart attack when he was still trying to get through her phone line....

As sad as she could be...she will have to clear his belongings...when she was looking thru the drawers, she saw this insurance policy, dated from the day they got married, with the beneficiary being her... And together in those file, there was this note...

"To my dearest wife, by the time you're reading this, I'm sure I'm no longer around, I bought this policy for you, though the amount is only $100k, I hope it will be able to help me continue my promise that i have made when we got married, I might not be around anymore, I want this amount of money to continue taking care of you, just like the way I will if I could have live longer. I want you to know Iwill always be around, by your side... I love you"
Tears flowed like river......

"When you love someone, let them know... You never know what will happen the next minute.... Learn to build a life together.. Learn to love each other. For who they are.. not what they are..."
