| All men and women are born, live suffer and die; what distinguishes us one from another is our dreams, whether they be dreams about worldly or unworldly things, and what we do to make them come about... We do not choose to be born. We do not choose our parents. We do not choose our historical epoch, the country of our birth, or the immediate circumstances of our upbringing. We do not, most of us, choose to die; nor do we choose the time and conditions of our death. But within this realm of choicelessness, we do choose how we live |
If you love somebody, let them go. If they return, they were always yours. If they don't, they never were.
Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get, it's what you are expected to give -- which is everything.
Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle, love is a war; love is a growing up
The best proof of love is trust.
The art of love ... is largely the art of persistence.
Immature love says: 'I love you because I need you.' Mature love says 'I need you because I love you.'
A relationship is like a rose, How long it lasts, no one knows; Love can erase an awful past, Love can be yours, you'll see at last; To feel that love, it makes you sigh, To have it leave, you'd rather die; You hope you've found that special rose, 'Cause you love and care for the one you chose."
I have discovered that when we least care to admit it, we feel more confused than thankful, more caught than called, more worried than gracious. In humble moments when we can no longer shine over the roughness of life, gratitude has a way of pushing out the real pain of feeling cheated or being not enough to the rough realities of the world. Gratitude seemed to be a handy response to move the tough things for which there are no simple or comforting answers.
After awhile you learn the subtle difference
No problem lasts forever. No matter how permanently fixed in the center of our lives it may seem, wAtevEr we experience in this ever-changing life is sure to pass. EVEN PAIN.
Difficult situations often bring out qualities in us that otherwise might not have risen to the surface, such as cOurAgE, fA!tH, and our need 4 1 another. All of our experiences can help us to grow.
-But we may need patience. Some wounds cAnnOt be healed quickly. They must be given tym. In the meantime, we can appreciate the new capabilities we are developing, such as the capacity to mourn and the willingness to accept.
I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph; I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain
Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
You've gone away, you don't feel me anymore
The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There’s so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain
Cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away
Cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away
Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone
You've gone away, you don't feel me anymore.
