love is not blind..it sees more not less..

love can happen

2006-11-22T16:24:00.000+08:00

you can only fall in love with one person and the others??? well...they just make your heart beat...you'll get to meet a lot of people but there's only one to whom you'll fully give your heart...sure, you'll get attracted to many...but, what you'll have are just feelings...whether you play around or not...there will only be one person for you in the end...it can be hard finding that person and even harder to feel that emotion...but i've been told it can happen...

six pieces of advice

2006-11-17T10:33:00.001+08:00

- closest to us is not family but death
- furtherest from us is not the moon or stars, but time passed
- biggest is not the mountain or sun, but our lust or desire
- heaviest weight is not the elephant or iron, but responsibility
- lightest is neither wind nor feathers, but not praying or delaying it
- sharpest is neither knife nor sword but our tongue

coffee character

2006-11-16T13:27:00.001+08:00

coffee has evolved in years with cream, iced coffee, coffee with choco chips or cookies...but no matter how people try to innovate coffee varieties, it still does not lose its distinct aroma...just like us...no matter how we clothe ourselves with different personalities, still our character remains...people may destroy your image, stain your personality but they can't take away your character...live...exist...let your character diffuse its distinct aroma...

Tula ni Rico Abelardo
feb14, 1990

Mangyari lamang ay tumayo
Ang mga nagmamahal
Nang makita ng lahat
Ang kagandahan ng mukha ng pag-ibig
Ipamalas ang tamis
Ng malalim na pagkakaunawaan
Sa mga Malabo ang paningin

Mangyari lamang ay tumayo rin
Ang mga nagmahal at nasawi
Nang makita ng lahat
Ang mga sugat ng isang bayani
Ipadama ang pait ng kabiguan
Habang ipinagbubunyi
Ang walang tulad na kagitingan
Ng isang nagtaya

Mangyari lamang ay tumayo
Ang mga nangangambang magmahal
Nang makita ng lahat
Ang kilos ng isang bata
Ipamalas ang katapatan ng damdamin
Na pilit ikinukubli
Ng pusong lumaki sa mga engkanto at diwata

Mangyari lamang ay tumayo
Ang mga nagmahal, minahal, at iniwan
Ngunit handa pa ring magmahal
Nang makita ng lahat ang yaman ng karanasan
Ipamalas ang mga katotohanang nasaksihan
Nang maging makahulugan
Ang mga paghagulgol sa dilim

At sa mga nananatiling nakaupo
Mangyari lamang ay dahan-dahang tumalilis
Papalabas sa nakangangang pinto
Umuwi na kayo
At sumbatan ang mga magulang
Na nagpalaki ng halimaw.

At sa lahat ng naiwang nakatayo
Mangyari lamang ay hagkan ang isa’t-isa
At yakapin ang mga sugatan
Mabuhay kayong lahat
Na nagsisikap makabalik sa ating pinagmulan
Manatiling masaya
At higit sa lahat, mapatuloy
Sa pagmamahal.

some realization

2006-04-20T23:11:00.000+08:00

it feels good to have friends like them..you will never be afraid to be alone especially after your heart was broken...i never imagined that we would be able to spend this kind of summer...it is just beginning...more plans to come more pictures to upload ...

but i cannot hide the fact that i am indeed lonely...my hapiness is just temporary...when im with my friends i can pretend that everything is ok...i know i can only be happy when the day comes that "we" can be together...i just have to wait...he told me to wait for quite some time then things will be perfect for us...as of now all we can do is text each other and try to hangout once in a while...this time we both have to be true to ourselves...show what we really feel and finish the "unfinished business" we once had...he made a promise and i should have faith in him that he will fulfill it...

maybe there is a reason why i lost something...in return i will gain my true happiness...wishing that one morning when i wake he will be there...taking my hand and placing it to his...

reflections of a mother

2006-03-16T00:15:00.000+08:00

I can offer you advice, but I cannot accept it for you.
I can give you love, but I cannot force it upon you.
I can teach you to share, but I cannot make you unselfish.
I can teach you respect, but I cannot force you to show honor.
I can advise you about friends, but cannot choose them for you.
I can advise you about sex, but I cannot keep you pure.
I can tell you the facts of life, but I can't build your reputation.
I can tell you about drink, but I can't say "no" for you.
I can warn you about drugs but I can't prevent you from using them.
I can tell you about lofty goals, but I can't achieve them for you.
I can teach you about kindness, but I can't force you to be gracious.
I can warn you about sins, but I cannot make you moral.

I can pray for you, but I cannot make you walk with God.
I can teach you about Jesus, but I cannot make Jesus your Lord.
I can tell you how to live, but I cannot give you eternal life.
I can love you with unconditional love all of my life . . . and I will!!!

selfish

2006-03-16T00:14:00.000+08:00

Someone I hate, she thinks she’s great
And loves to state the obvious
You’re next to me, entirely, let’s wait and see

Someone like you, selfish it’s true
All you can do
It’s plain to see, entirely, you disagree
No sense of reason, I think it’s true
Why did you have to believe them
No sense of reason, what do I have to do
There’s no-one else you’re deceiving

Sometimes it’s true, forgiving you is hard to do
It’s crystal clear, could end in tears
And not something I can feel sure of
No sense of reason some think it‘s true
Why did you have to believe them
No sense of reason, what do I have to do
There’s no one else

No sense of reason some think it‘s true
Why did you have to believe them
No sense of reason, what do I have to do
There’s no one else you’re deceiving

No sense of reason, why did you have to believe them
No sense of reason, there’s no one else
No sense of reason some think it’s true
Why did you have to believe them
No sense of reason, what do I have to do
There’s no one else you’re deceiving
Why did you have to believe them

because of you

2006-03-09T02:43:00.000+08:00

I will not make the same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did,
You fell so hard
I've learned the hard way
To never let it get that far

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start with

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

I watched you die
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry in the middle of the night
For the same damn thing

its the love thing!

How they NAMED it

ABN AMRO- In the 1960s, the Nederlandse Handelmaatschappij (Dutch Trading Society; 1824) and the Twentsche Bank merged to form the Algemene Bank Nederland ( ABN; General Bank of the Netherlands). In 1966, the Amsterdamsche Bank and the Rotterdamsche Bank merged to form the Amro Bank. In 1991, ABNand Amro Bank merged to form ABN AMRO.

Accenture- Accent on the Future. Greater-than 'accent' over the logo's t points forward towards the future. The name Accenture was proposed by a company employee in Norwayas part of a internal name finding process (BrandStorming). Prior to January 1, 2001 the company was called Andersen Consulting.

Adidas- from the name of the founder Adolf (Adi) Dassler.

Adobe- came from name of the river Adobe Creek that ran behind the houses of founders John Warnock and Chuck Geschke .

AltaVista- Spanish for "high view".

Amazon.com - Founder Jeff Bezos renamed the company to Amazon (from the earlier name of Cadabra.com) after the world's most voluminous river, the Amazon. He saw the potential for a larger volume of sales in an online bookstore as opposed to the then prevalent bookstores. (Alternative: It is said that Jeff Bezos named his book store Amazon simply to cash in on the popularity of Yahoo at the time. Yahoo listed entries alphabetically, and thus Amazon would always appear above its competitors in the relevant categories it was listed in.)

AMD- Advanced Micro Devices.

Apache- The name was chosen from respect for the Native American Indian tribe of Apache (IndÃƒÂ©), well-known for their superior skills in warfare strategy and their inexhaustible endurance. Secondarily, and more popularly (though incorrectly) accepted, it's considered a cute name that stuck: its founders got started by applying patches to code written for NCSA's httpd daemon. The result was 'a patchy' server Ã¢â‚¬" thus the name Apache.

Apple- for the favourite fruit of co-founder Steve Jobs and/or for the time he worked at an apple orchard. He was three months late in filing a name for the business, and he threatened to call his company Apple Computer if his colleagues didn't suggest a better name by 5 p.m. Apple's Macintosh is named after a popular variety of apple sold in the US. Apple also wanted to distance itself from the cold, unapproachable, complicated imagery created by the other computer companies at the time had names like IBM, NEC, DEC, ADPAC, Cincom, Dylakor, Input, Integral Systems, SAP, PSDI, Syncsort and Tesseract. The new company sought to reverse the entrenched view of computers in order to get people to use them at home. They looked for a name that was unlike the names of traditional computer companies, a name that also supported a brand positioning strategy that was to be perceive d as simple, warm, human, approachable and different. Note: Apple had to get approval from the Beatle's Apple Corps to use the name 'Apple' and paid a one-time royalty of $100,000 to McIntosh Laboratory, Inc., a maker of high-end audio equipment, to use the derivative name 'Macintosh', known now as just 'Mac'.

AT&T- American Telephone and Telegraph Corporation officially changed its name to AT&T in the 1990s.

Bauknecht- Founded as an electrotechnical workshop in 1919 by Gottlob Bauknecht .

BBC- Stands for British Broadcasting Corporation.

BenQ- Bringing ENjoyment and Quality to life

Blaupunkt- Blaupunkt (Blue dot) was founded in 1923 under the name Ideal. Their core business was the manufacturing of headphones. If the headphones came through quality tests, the company would give the headphones a blue dot. The headphones quickly became known as the blue dots or blaue Punkte. The quality symbol would become a trademark, and the trademark would become the company name in 1938.

BMW- abbreviation of Bayerische Motoren Werke (Bavarian Motor Factories)

Borealis - The Northern Lights or Aurora Borealis, is the celestial phenomenon that features bursts of light in colourful patterns dancing across the night skies of the north. Borealis, inspired from the shining brilliance of the Northern Lights, was formed in 1994 out of the merger between two northern oil companies, Norway's Statoil and Finland's Neste.

BP - formerly British Petroleum, now "BP" (The slogan "Beyond Petroleum" has incorrectly been taken to refer to the company's new name following its rebranding effort in 2000).

BRAC- abbreviation for Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee, world's largest NGO (non governmental organization). It works in development programs around the world.

CGI- from the first letter of Information Management Consultant in french (Conseiller en Gestion et Informatique).

If Love was a Game

2006-02-10T03:10:00.000+08:00

1. You must love yourself first. It is a prerequisite to creating a successful and authentic union with another.

2. Partnering is a choice- the choice to be in a relationship is up to you. You have the
ability to attract your beloved and cause the relationship you desire to happen.

3. Creating love is a process. Moving from I to we requires a shift in perspective and
energy. Being an authentic couple is an evolution.

4. Relationships provide an opportunity to grow. They serve as an unofficial life stop
in which you will learn about yourself and how you can grow on your personal path.

5. Communication is essential- it is the lifeblood of the relationship.

6. Negotiation will be required- there are times when you and your partner must
work through impasses. If you do this consciously and with respect you will
learn to create win-win outcomes.

7. Your relationship will be challenged by change. Life presents turns in the road.
How you maneuver those twists and turns determines the success of your
relationships.

8. You must nurture the relationship for it to thrive. If you give it your time,
attention and effort, it will continue to grow with each passing day.

9. Renewal is the key to longevity. Happily ever after means the ability to keep the
relationship fresh and vital.

10. You will forget all this when you fall in love. We know these rules inherently.
The challenge is to remember them when you fall in love.

the poem

2006-02-09T01:07:00.000+08:00

I knelt to pray but not for long,
I had too much to do.
I had to hurry and get to work
For bills would soon be due.
So I knelt and said a hurried prayer,
And jumped up off my knees.
My Christian duty was now done
My soul could rest at ease....
All day long I had no time
To spread a word of cheer
No time to speak of Christ to friends,
They’d laugh at me I’d fear.
No time, no time, too much to do,
That was my constant cry,
No time to give to souls in need
But at last the time, the time to die.
I went before the Lord,
I came, I stood with downcast eyes.
For in his hands God held a book;
It was the book of life
God looked into his book and said
“Your name I cannot find.
I once was going to write it down...
But never found the time”

Are you addicted to love???

2006-02-05T23:03:00.000+08:00

You Are 36% Addicted to Love

Might as well face it, you're a little addicted to love.

You won't do anything for love, but sometimes you do more than you should.

No one's worth losing your head for - because in the end you'll only lose your heart.

Don't avoid falling in love. Just make sure you don't get too hooked.

2006-01-31T01:25:00.000+08:00

what is it with rocks and stones? it keeps me ticking, keeps me going...i can feel it even through my bones...i could even feel it without knowing

it really feels weird most of the time...what matters like these can do to you...im not even sure if what i have is mine...HOW I WISH you can feel this too

you can drive a woman crazy just a simple sip...make them think and make them do things...to make them believe your their's to keep...and what joy these things bring

i don't know if its aware of what it does...maybe they do.. i don't know!...maybe they dont! we're like dust being swept away when we're getting close

stone cold! now that's a nice name for it...it sounds so intimidating for an object...makes your stomach growl, doesn't it?...or maybe it does other effects

maybe someday i won't be scared anymore...yeah, you heard that right, i'm scared!!! so scared makes my heart always sore...but i know it won't bother you, u dont even care!!

coz your one cold rock..ur a one stone cold rock...that's gonna keep on haunting my dreams til one day i snap! run and never look back...

What Kind of Girlfriend Are You?

2006-01-29T00:00:00.000+08:00

You Are An Understanding Girlfriend!

You care about your guy, so much that you tend to put him first
And while this makes your relationship smooth, sometimes you let big things slide
Still be your understanding self, but if something really bothers you - let your guy know
He'll still want you, even if you occasionally disagree

What Kind of Girlfriend Are You?

just a fool

2006-01-20T04:02:00.001+08:00

Well I was sitting, waiting, wishing

I ain't the Lord, I'm just a fool

love is a mystery

2006-01-20T04:02:00.000+08:00

now i know that love, really is a mystery.. ive realized that sometimes, even if u wana keep some promises, things and people just come unexpectedly.. i've finally found someone who's ready to fight for me and i could say the he really is an unexpected blessing.. just really worth all the wait, the pain, sacrifices, risks, hurts and evrything else..well, i know i deserve to be happy after every episode.. actually, everyone deserves to be! i just really couldn't ask for more..

60 seconds

2006-01-20T03:57:00.000+08:00

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures , laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back...

but now that dream is gone...i'm no longer in heaven...now you must face reality once more...and fight my demons again...

10 things I hate about you

2005-11-18T19:03:00.000+08:00

I hate the way you talk to me
and the way you cut your hair
i hate the way you drive my car
i hate it when u stare
I hate your big dumb combat boots
and the way you read my mind
I hate you so much it makes me sick
It even makes me rhyme
I hate the way your always right
I hate it when you lie
I hate it when you make me laugh even worse when you make me cry
I hate it when your not around
and the fact that you didn't call
but mostly i hate the way i don't hate you
not even close
not even a little bit
not even at all

[1 John 2:19]

2005-11-17T00:58:00.000+08:00

There are people who can walk away from you; and hear me when I tell you this! When people can walk away from you: let them walk.

I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone.

When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left. The Bible said that, they came out from us that it might be made manifest that they were not for us. For had they been of us, no doubt they would have continued with us. [1 John 2:19]

People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay. Let them go. And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person it just means that their part in the story is over. And you've got to know when people's part in your story is over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead. You've got to know when it's dead.

You've got to know when it's over. Let me tell you something. I've got the gift of good-bye. It's the tenth spiritual gift, I believe in good-bye. It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm faithful, and I know whatever God means for me to have He'll give it to me. And if it takes too much sweat I don't need it. Stop begging people to stay. Let them go!!

If you are holding on to something that doesn't belong to you and was never intended for your life, then you need to...LET IT GO!!!

If you are holding on to past hurts and pains ...LET IT GO!!!

If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your worth ...LET IT GO!!!

If someone has angered you ... LET IT GO!!!

If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge...LET IT GO!!!

If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction ... LET IT GO!!!

If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents... LET IT GO!!!

If you have a bad attitude...LET IT GO!!!

If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better... LET IT GO!!!

If you're stuck in the past and God is trying to take you to a new level in Him... LET IT GO!!!

If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship....LET IT GO!!!

If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try to help themselves...LET IT GO!!!

If you're feeling depressed and stressed.... LET IT GO!!!

If there is a particular situation that you are so used to handling yourself and God is saying "take your hands off of it," then you need to... LET IT GO!!!

Let the past be the past. Forget the former things. LET IT GO!!! Get Right or Get Left... Think about it, and then LET IT GO!!!

after a while

2005-11-17T00:57:00.000+08:00

After a while, you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul,

And you learn that love doesn’t mean learning and company doesn’t mean security,

And you begin to learn that kisses aren’t contracts and presents aren’t promises,

And you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes open

With the grace of a woman, not the grief of a child,

And you learn to build all your roads on today because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans.

And futures have a way of falling down in midfight.

After a while, you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much.

So you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul.

Instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.

And you learn that you really can endure..that you are really strong.

And you really do have worth..and you learn and learn…

With every goodbye you learn...

blabs...

2005-11-16T01:54:00.000+08:00

What made me love you so?
i kept thinking and still i don't know
maybe your eyes or your smile?
coz seeing them makes my life worthwhile
i wish i wouldn't act this way
it's wrong but i dunno what to say
but what's that something in you?
that took my heart away and it's still with you..
this may be short and not so deep
but I'm offering this to you, and its yours to keep

ONE

DATA and many others.

ONE is a new effort by Americans to rally Americans - ONE by ONE - to fight the emergency of global AIDS and extreme poverty. The ONE Campaign is engaging Americans through a diverse coalition of faith-based and anti-poverty organizers to show the steps people can take, ONE by ONE, to fight global AIDS and poverty.

The ONE Campaign seeks to give Americans a voice, to ring church bells and cell phones, on campuses and in coffee shops, for an historic pact to fight the global AIDS emergency and end extreme poverty. We believe that allocating an additional ONE percent of the U.S. budget toward providing basic needs like health, education, clean water and food, would transform the futures and hopes of an entire generation of the poorest countries.

snakes

2005-11-03T01:04:00.000+08:00

To see a snake or be bitten by one in your dream, signifies hidden fears and worries that are threatening you. Your dream may be alerting you to something in your waking life that you are not aware of or that has not yet surfaced. The snake may also be seen as phallic and thus symbolize dangerous and forbidden sexuality. The snake may also refer to a person around you who is callous, ruthless, and can't be trusted. As a positive symbol, snakes represent transformation, knowledge and wisdom. It is indicative of self-renewal and positive changes.

something to remember...

2005-11-02T23:57:00.000+08:00

Love is patient love is kind.
It does not envy it does not boast
It is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but
rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.

as i await for HIM to be finished in your class
i sit here in this room alone
thinking about what you've said
it made me think whta if i have something that i might regret
but then it also made me realize how mature i am today
i have grown so much that now i can say that i have changed to someone better
we used to give "promises" that we both wanted to keep
but is that what i really wanted?
was it something you really wanted?
when we said those things to each other
we are still yound and perhaps we are just being selfish of what we think is right
i understand that right now we are both living separate lives
i must say that i am very much contented with everything
i have the things i want
i have a lot of firends and i have someone very special in my life
he is noyperfect but he made me feel special
he has hurt me several times yet he has proven his worth
it's too early to say that he is the one
coz its really up to him to make him the right one
i am pretty sure that you're also being loved by her
i wish you hapiness and luck with her because you also love her as much as she does
maybe you were able to say those things to me coz you were missing my company
but even though you've said those things, reality wont change that you love her deeply
the message was too long and just goin in circles
the bottomline here is that even though we've parted ways
i am still thankful with what you've done to me
you taught me how to be strong and to grow
so thank you
please dont hold any grudges or anything
im looking forward to be friends with you
again, thank you

8 Ways To Handle An Argument

2005-10-12T23:24:00.000+08:00

Let's face it, no one is perfect. No matter how hard you try, or how loving and respectful of a couple you are, you are bound to get into a disagreement once in a while. With a few tips though, it doesn't have to be something that can harm your relationship. The next time you feel an argument starting to form keep in mind these 8 ways to handle an argument!

1. Give your partner enough space to voice his or her concerns.
I'm sure you hate it when people interrupt you; give your partner the same respect -- even if you don't agree with what they are saying.

2. Make an extra effort to really understand what you partner is trying to say.
It is very easy to fall into the trap of thinking you know what they are saying, when in fact you may not have a clue. If your partner feels like you understand what they are saying, you'll find a way to end the argument far more quickly.

3. Don't say something you'll regret later.
Always consider your relationship like a glass. It is sturdy, tough, beautiful and clear when taken care of, but if it is mistreated or mishandled it can end up scratched, cracked or even broken. Take care in choosing the words you say when you are in the heat of the moment.

4. Don't bring in past woes.
The past is the past... let it stay there. If you dwell on past occurrences, you'll never find a solution for the future your partner will feel less loved and respected, and you will always feel negatively towards your partner. People make mistakes. Give your partner the chance to recover from them, and encourage and support them when they make the right choices.

5. Learn to compromise.
If you can learn to compromise, you'll find yourself in fewer disagreements. If you don't like something, then agree with your partner to find some middle ground. This also applies the other way. Be willing to come up with alternative solutions for things your partner doesn't like as well!

6. Realize that no matter what you say, you both may not agree on the issue at hand.
An argument is typically started because you want someone to agree with you about something. You think that the other person must not know all the facts, so you begin to explain it to them. The more your partner still disagrees with you, the more upset you usually get. But, if you realize that sometimes it is best to just let yourselves agree to disagree -- you'll show your partner that you not only respect their opinion, but respect their individuality as well. You never know, maybe later on they (or even you!) might change their mind.

7. Make a commitment to talk about the situation until it is handled.
It's far too easy to run off and avoid your partner, or give them the silent treatment. Instead, make a commitment right now to each other to respect each other enough to work it out -- even if it takes all night. Nothing is unsolvable when you are working together to truly find a peaceful resolution.

8. Make your relationship with your partner your first concern when you are in the middle of a disagreement.
This does not mean bend over backwards for them or compromise your integrity. Just keep in mind that the person you are arguing with is your best friend, lover and soul mate. If you both keep that at the forefront of your mind in an argument, it will keep what matters most away from cruel words or intent -- your heart!

Finally, I leave you with one thought on preventing arguments. Let your partner know exactly when something upsets you. I've found that many people tend to not speak up when something bothers them, thinking that it is trivial to mention it. Unfortunately, what happens is after repeated times of not speaking up, some small occurrence happens and it ends up being the straw that broke the camel's back. The other partner, more often than not, has no clue what they are upset about and therefore thinks they are over-reacting. If you find yourself in this situation, deal with each thing as it happens. Don't let things build up until you explode.

How To Be A Better Couple...10 steps to enjoying each other better

2005-10-11T23:24:00.000+08:00

1. Be realistic about each other.
Don't try to turn your partner into something he or she is not. Let's face it, guys-there's only 1 Pamela Anderson in the world, and even she has had her implants removed! Give your gal a break and understand that her physical appearance is NOT going to change overnight with the help of a few facials or treatments. And ladies, Brad Pitt has already been taken, so you're gonna have to do with what ur guy is like! Chill out, love each other for what u are. There is more to ur partner than what meets the eye.

2. Always talk things out.
Now guys, I know this is not your fave pastime or mode of resolving issues, but u know what? This works with the gals. Don't make assumptions about each other's feelings. Learn to express yourself better so that your partner understands what you're angry about, or hurt about, or even happy about! When you stop talking to each other from the heart, it's the beginning of the end.

3. Do stuff together.
Make an effort to do things together. Do some sports or involve yourselves in some shared activities; something both of you enjoy or are interested in. It could be as simple as watching movies together, or just strolling hand-in-hand down Orchard Road. Watch soccer with him once in a while though the green patch on TV puts u to sleep in 3 seconds. And guys, do give in if ur gal asks for another day at window-shopping, rather than suggest that she go out with her girlfriends for "that sort of activities" instead. If you're spending more time with your friends rather than with your partner, it's a warning sign that you're drifting apart!!!

4. Meet each other halfway.
If he agrees to throw out that rotten T-shirt with the "The_Rock" print, you shouldn't kick up much of a fuss if he asks u to keep ur room tidy. There's gotta be a little giving and taking in a relationship, so learn to meet each other halfway.

5.Show your love
Buy her flowers or candy or perfume every now and then, even if you have been together for 5years. It's wonderful to continue showing someone that u care for him or her. Cook him a special meal, paint him a Valentine's Day card. Knit him mini-socks he can't wear ( like for decoration purposes => ), buy him a packet of milk for breakfast, or pack his wardrobe for him...so he knows you can still be romantic and loving despite having been together for quite a while.

6. Respect each other.
Stop making jokes about her hair or skin, or whatever it is you love to laugh at. Ask yourself if she thinks if its funny. And if he has an inferiority complex about his height, stop ogling at tall guys and make him feel worse! Love is about respecting each other's feelings and being sensitive to each other at all times.

7. Bury the past. (it's already burried)
Stop bringing up the past. Gals..don't bring up the happy things about you and youur ex to your guy, it would just make him jealous or unhappy. And guys, don't talk about the happy times that you had with your ex or mention about her in your every other sentence as it would make ur gal feel un-happy and she might think that you saying all this because you are gonna get back with ur ex or not interested in her anymore.

8. Sit on your jealousy.
All of us go thru' spells of insecurity at the beginning of the relationship, but don't translate that insecurity into jealousy. If you're gonna go through your partner's mail and cupboard, and eavesdropping on conversations, you know something is wrong - with you!!! Jealousy is like a poison that slowly spreads through the relationship before finally killing it. Trust ur partner; love has to have trust in it. (it depends...)

9. Keep your commitments to each other.
If your partner is standing you up all the time and canceling dates and breaking promises, you need to talk! If you're in a relationship, make your partner your priority and don't disappoint them if you can help it. It's really terrible when someone promises to take you to dinner, and then calls to cancel it. Don't make promises you can't keep. If your partner starts to feel that he/she is not important enough to you, you may just lose him/her.

10. Be honest.
Honesty is not scowling at how awful she looks first thing in the morning, or telling him that he has the biceps of a fly~! When we say "be honest", we mean expressing your feelings clearly, not being bitingly cruel. When you're hurt, say so, and when you're angry, tell him/her, w/o getting hysterical. If u can't be honest with your partner, who can you be honest with? Love is also about honesty, and a relationship where no honesty exists probably isn't worth it!

If u TREAT him nicely, he says u are IN LOVE with him;
If u Don't, he says u are PROUD.

If u DRESS Nicely, he says u are trying to LURE him;
If u Don't, he says u are from a CONVENT.

If u ARGUE with him, he says u are STUBBORN;
If u keep QUIET, he says u have no BRAINS.

If u are SMARTER than him, he'll lose FACE;
If he's Smarter than u, he is GREAT.

If u don't Love him, he tries to POSSESS u;
If u Love him, he will try to LEAVE u.(very true huh?)

If u don't make love with him., he says u don't Love him;
If u do!! he says u are CHEAP.

If u tell him your PROBLEM, he says u are TROUBLESOME;
If u don't, he says that u don't TRUST him.

If u SCOLD him, u are like a NANNY to him;

bright lights festival with BAMBOO

2005-10-02T00:29:00.000+08:00

i was very tired yesterday...i was in school from 8 am till 12 midnight...at around 9:30 am we started to fix the booth (for the signature contest) at around 11 we were finished with the setup so we started to ask people to sign the papers for the signature campaign...we had our own strategy...rache and i stayed at the lobby and asked people to sign the forms...then we would promote the bright lights event and then encourage them to check out the booths of our sponsors like bayantel, blast, chalk, ponds, meralco, jergens, cream silk, alcatel, and more...then at around 4:30 i started counting the number of signatures and we got 557! we won!!! we also won the best booth design...

at 5pm i went to the theater to check out if everything was ok...the place was not yet fixed so rache and i went to the maintenance and security to ask for their help...at 5:45 the students wanted to enter the theater...they do not want to line up...i had no choice but to get their attention so that everything would be in order...i stood up at the registration table and i was practically yelling at them...asking them to line up outside...at 6:30 we allowed them to enter the theater...

at around 8:30 pm i went down to the security office to ask for parking permits for the bands' cars...then i got a permit form for the equipments that they will use...at 9pm bamboo and ira arrived...after 10 minutes vic arrived with the equipments...after 10 minutes nathan arrived...they were ready to play but then they waited for a while til the equipments were ready on the stage...at 9:50 i went up to the theater (together with bamboo, ira, nathan and vic plus 3 security guards)...bamboo asked me how's the crowd and i told him that it was ok...a lot of people are waiting for them to play..then he said really, that's good! then he just smiled at me! at the backstage ira was looking for a pen so i gave him my pen...we couldn't find a paper so we just picked up the scratch we saw on the floor...he gave the paper and pen to bamboo coz he was the one arranging the songs that they'll sing...

i was so lucky coz i was the only student who had an oppurtunity to be with them the whole night .. i had a picture with bamboo and ira too! hahaha...after their performance i accompanied them back to their cars and assisted them with the checking of their equipments...

after the event, the officers, asst officers together with ms mel and sir dan, we went to starbucks and had a little chit chat...we were all happy coz the day was a success..though we encountered some problems...the event turned out well.....

The Art of Letting Go

2005-09-22T01:33:00.000+08:00

"To let go isn't to forget, not think about, or ignore. It doesn't leave feelings of anger, jealousy, or regret. Letting go isn't winning, and it isn't 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 giving in or giving up. Letting go isn't about loss, and it's not defeat. To let go is to cherish memories, but to overcome and to move on. It is having an open mind and confidence in the future. Letting go is accepting. It 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 to set yourself free."

"The hardest mile I've ever walked was the one away from you."

"Yet, regardless if you love them or hate them, wish they would die or know that you would die without them, it matters not. Because once in your life, whatever they were to the world, they became everything to you.When you look them in their eyes, travelling into the depths of their soul, and you say a million things without the trace of sound, you know that your life is eventually consumed within the rhythmic beatings of their heart. You love them for a million reasons. No paper would do the justice. It's a thing, a feeling, only felt by you."

"I forgot about you for a while, but then I saw you again in my mind, just instantly flashed back to the time when I thought that we were happy; I know I'll never hold you like that again."

"All I ever did was LOVE you too much".

"I think letting you go was the smartest decision I ever made. Even though I loved you so much, I just couldn't deal with the pain. And, the times we spent together, holding each other, were the best times of my life. But no matter how much I wanted to keep you in my arms, I couldn't. I couldn't hold on to you, knowing that all you were going to do was hurt me. But right now, even though I still love you, I don't need you anymore. I don't need you to complete me. I just need you to comfort me when I'm sad, support me, and listen to me when I talk. So, I guess what I'm saying is, I'm glad we're over. I'm glad I've let go."

getting hun's nemo

2005-09-18T00:28:00.000+08:00

my day went well...though i wasn't able to attend my eccomerce class at 8-11am...i was
really sleepy so i overslept .. then at around 11 am i woke up coz hun is gping to my house so i have to take a bath and dress up...at around 12:30 he arrived...then my brother arrived with mom...coz they went to toyota quezon ave to check out the car my mom bought...its going to be delivered next week...yey!

so we left the house with them...we dropped my mom at glorietta then hun, kuya and i went to pateros to get "nemo"...hun's toyota sprinter...finally we were able to sign the deed of sale...we were able to get the car...we immediately brought it to my cousin's auto repair shop to have the car checked...according to my kuya pen (my cousin) he stilll needs to fix the carburator...the clutch and the starter...then "nemo" will be ready to go...

hun was quite excited...and i know that he's really happy to have his own car out of his own money (though my brother lended him some money which he promised to give back...500 a week until he reaches the amount of 25k .. well the agreement was between them)...hun asked tita rita tif she can give him some money so that he could process the registration of the car so he could use it right after my cousin fixes it..

after eating my lunch at my cousin's shop...i left hun with my cousin and i walked to my lola's house...i saw baby jan...he was taller and his hair was really long and curly...when i saw his eyes got really big and i telling him that he was "panget" coz he had this big eyes...then he screamed and cried...hahahaha...then i carried him and stopped crying...then the moment he saw his face in the mirror he cried again...he was "nangingilala" my lola was laughing coz baby jan kept on crying everytime i would touch him or talk to him...

i went back to the shop coz we have to go to my house to get my car...then we went to hun's house coz he needs to change his clothes...then we went to picc the forum for the 14th international motor show...we saw a lot of mini coopers, amc hummer replicas, triumph, midget, chevorlet, chevelle, nova, beetle, karman ghia, jaguar roadster, and other modified cars and vintage cars...

after the car show, we went back to his house and picked up ate elaine coz we wanted to show her the car that we saw near geno's house and the other sprinter at dian st...then went back to their to eat dinner....then hun brought me home...he stayed for a while coz he was waiting for geno's text...they were supposed to play billiards but geno was out with someone so hun went home...

still waiting | the moment

2005-09-17T01:24:00.000+08:00

yesterday after my filip13 class, i went to the mmx cubix to meet up with yani coz we were supposed to fix our entries for the bright lights competition...but then he had other plans so we just ate our dinner at koi then went back to the cubix coz he needs to borrow an umbrella coz it was raining hard...we saw sha sitting at the cubix...she was waiting for her ex...well we were both waiting there...so yani left...sha and i had a llttle girl talk...she was amused that hun and i are going strong with our relationship...her exact words "grabe tatlo na yung naging boyfriend ko tapos kayo pa rin ni conrad"... then i told her that we had a big trial last january til april and we were able to surpass everything...she told me that i was strong and that if ever that thing happened to her she might have commited suicide...coz she has this "suicidal thing" going on when she broke up with her 2nd boyfriend...in the middle of our conversation...hun came in so we stopped talking...and then asked him to go back to his class coz we were having a "girl talk"...hun left and we continued talking...i told sha everything...almost in full detail...and all she can say was that i was really strong that i was able to handle that situation...and good thing that conrad has changed now and we are already in good terms..i even told her that my family knew what had happened with me, conrad and the other girl...and sha was surprised that my family didnt get too involved with my decision of accepting conrad back...coz her family was really involved with her relationships and then she told me that there was this one time that her famiyl and her boyfrend's fmaily was talking about their problem...

it was kinda great talking to sha coz she understands me well and at the same time i was able to get to know her better...coz we were not really close...though we are in the same org and we were batchmates...we never had a chance to have a talk like what we had the other day...

i have to wake up really early tomorrrow...hun's quite excited and im pretty sure that he couldn't sleep tonight...we are gonna get his sprinter at pateros after our ecommerce class...which reminds me that we are not yet don with the homework we did last week...owel im just gonna do it tom...its just a simple flash site...

im talking to my bestfriend right now over ym...so i gotta go

-------

anyway...this is for YOU...i know you have read the enrty...pretty sure you've been telling your friends about it again...im still waiting for a reply...

cup or water ???

2005-09-10T00:13:00.000+08:00

Read & think!!

A group of working adults got together to visit their University lecturer. The Lecturer was happy to see them. Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life. The lecturer just smiled and went to the kitchen to get an assortment of cups - some porcelain, some in plastic, some in glass, some plain looking and some looked rather expensive and exquisite.

The Lecturer offered his former students the cups to get drinks for themselves. When all the students had a cup in hand with water, the Lecturer spoke: "If you noticed, all the nice looking, expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal that you only want the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress. What all you wanted was water, not the cup, but we unconsciously went for the better cups."

"Just like in life, if Life is Water, then the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold/maintain Life, but the quality of Life doesn't change." "If we only concentrate on the cup, we won't have time to enjoy/taste the water in it."

"Ability may take you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there." -John Wooden, Basketball Coach.

* this was an email that was sent to me by my friend and i just wanted to share the message ..

naawa ako sayo kasi babae din ako...naiintindihan ko na kung ako nasa lugar mo malamang masasaktan din ako...pero hindi ba alam mo naman na ganun ang sitwasyon pero hinayaan mo lang...may choice ka para gawin yung tama pero hindi mo ginawa...lahat ng mga nararamdaman mo ngayon kasalanan mo rin yan...alam ko mahirap na kalimutan yung taong mahal mo...pero tulungan mo ang sarili mo...sabhin ko man na wag mo siya isipin hindi naman pwede yun dahil impossible...pero eto na lang...tigilan mo na...tumatakbo ka nga ngayon pero alam mo kung hanggang san ka tatakbo??? o kung may hinahabol ka pa ba? magpahinga ka muna...tigil na muna...mag-isip ka...matalino ka wag mo aksayahin ang oras mo...alam ko mahirap...hindi lang naman ikaw ang na-apektohan sa mga nangyari...pare-pareho lang tayo...kahit pa msaya na kami ngayon at ok na...pagdating sa usapan or kahit ano na may kinalaman sa issue...wala na...ballik ulit sa umpisa...

impossible na matapos toh...hindi na matatapos toh...

kanina galit na galit ako...ngayon medyo hindi na...at least ngayon nalabas ko na halos lahat ng gusto ko sabihin sayo... alam ko sasagot ka...aantayin ko

i arrived late in school (as usual) at 9am i went to the blue room and found no one so i went down to ML0 and i saw my prof wandering around...as expected my classmates were also late...so i was the one who borrowed the things for the shoot and i was the one who bought them up to the blue room with the help of the new tech from fashion design...he 's not allowed to help me but i insisted coz i was getting tired of going up and down the stairs for the equipments...at 10am i was able to set up the tripods, the camera (all i did was to place the cf card inside the D70 then i talked to the talents (hehehehe...) at 10:30 my prof entered the blue room coz he went to 711 to buy some drinks for the talent...so i told him i had to go coz i still have plans...he was kind enough to let me go since i brought all the equipments at the blue room and started to set it up...he told me to meet him tomorrow somewhere in makati or ortigas for the materials to be used on our finals since i cant shoot...so i left the room and rushed my way to chowking...(that's where i parked my car) i was looking for mang rey coz he has the keys and my car as well...the police asked him to park it somewhere else or it will be towed...so i just waited at chow...after 15 minutes i got bored and i really had to go...i went to estrada and looked for mang rey..i was supposed to take a pedicab and go to his house...luckily i saw a white rav4 parked infront of united pharmacy...i took a closer look and saw the plate no...it was my car!! then mang rey was there...he thought i was gonna leave at 12 noon that's why he was just there waiting...i paid 40 pesos and left...

i went straight to pablo ocampo...i parked in front of hun's house and went to becky's kitchen to buy a cake for him...i know that he loves toffee so i got him a swiss chocolate cake from beckys...then i went to his house..his sister puyik and nene was there at living room watching tv and they told me that shoti was still sleeping...they told me to go up in their room and just wake him up...when i opened the door of his room, he was there lying down and he was half awake holding his phone and texting...he smiled the moment he saw me..i sat beside him and i told him to get up from bed...i said happy birthday and hugged him...he was sweet enough to say thank you and give me a kiss (hahaha he hasven't brushed his teeth!!! ) we went to the other room and opened his pc...his sister shobe left a note, she was asking himm to edit the invitation and said her greetings...hun left me in that room and went down...he saw the cake and he thanked me...he didn't know that the cake has toffee inside until he sliced it...at first he was asking his sister to get some...but the moment he knew it has toffee he told her not to get anymore hehehehe...

we ate our lunch in his house while watching game k n b...after eating he took a bath and left me watching with puyik...we were watching wow wow wee and eat bulaga...bulagaan portion was up so i asked hun if we could finish it first before we leave...it was really funny!!! jimmy santos got scared of the fire cracker that jose threw near him...haha...

our first stop upon leaving his house was at zobel roxas, he talked to the owner of this shop and found out that the owner was from marinduque and was his mom's relative... then next stop was at south ave makati to check out the black "mini pick-up" then we wetn to my cousin's shop at estrada to have the rubber on my rav 4's window fixed...i showed hun my lolo's hot rod car and the nova ss muscle car...i told him that we were planning to restore it...but we have to find the papers before restoring it...to my surprise my cousin's friends from csb-akic was hun's batchmate from san beda...so they talked for a while...then my brother arrived then we left...our next stop was at san juan, then at qc...we reached until st peter's parish at commonwealth coz he thought that the car that we are supposed to check ouot was near ever...but then i told himm that the ever that the car was located was in cainta...so we turned back and went to UP diliman instead to buy some isaw...we ate 4 cups of isaw (i think there was 6 sticks per cup)...then we saw my brother's car along tandang sora...he called us up at the cellphone and asked us why are we there,,we told him we went to UP to get something...and then he told us that he was going to philcoa to check out the sentra car he want to copy as a project car...then hun and i went around qc...we found several old school cars which are now included to oour "potential" restoration list...then we went back to san juan and ended up at a volkswagen restoration shop...we were able to talk to the owner...he gave us tons of information about the beetle, the fast back cars and convertibles...he even told us a story on how to get an old car on a very cheap price...he told us that he could help us restore the car that hun wants...then ate elaine texted and told hun to go home coz she bought pizza for shoti and buchoy for their bday and tita rita arrived from marinduque...so we went back to his house to eat dinner and had a little chat with his mom...before tita rita left, she prepared the puto and tikoy for me and my mom...then we told her that we will be going to marinduque next week during our term break...at 10pm hun's mom left with manang rosing so hun told me we should get going...we left again and went around san antonio village to check out more old school cars...i texted his mom and said thank you for the dinner and the puto she gave me, she replied and even sent me a quote...to my respect and appreciation i sent her a verse from the bible..."one purposes of suffering is for milding Christ-likness in us, Rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ's sufferings. 1Peter 4:13" then she immediately replied "indeed, amen"...i was happy to rececive that reply from his mom...i felt at ease...i told hun about it and he was also happy...

after checking out the whole village we decided to go home...we took a picture inside the car..."the brithday picture"

i know that i was able to make hun happy today coz we did something that i know he really likes...and that is to check out cars particulary muscle cars and old school cars...

8's are the problem solvers. They are professional,
blunt and to the point, have good judgment and are
decisive. They have grand plans and like to live the
good life. They take charge of people. They view
people objectively. They let you know in no
uncertain terms that they are the boss. They
should learn to exude their decisions on their own
needs rather than on what others want.

long distane relationship

2005-08-03T23:24:00.000+08:00

long distance relationship

i was browsing my multiply then i saw this post in one of my groups...i copied it and might as well share it to everyone....i might need this in the future...

Long distance relationships are dreadful. I know this because I'm currently living one. You watch other couples walk down the street hand-in-hand, kissing, etc., everyday and you can't do anything but envy them. So how can a long distance relationship work? How can you keep on loving someone if you can't even see them?

The answer is...it depends on how much you want it to work. True love can overcome any odds thrown in its path if you want it bad enough. So the question is, how do you do it? Well, I do not think that anyone knows exactly how to make it work, but I can certainly provide some points on making it work.

1. COMMUNICATION is the key

In every relationship, whether near or far, if communication is taken for granted, it can cause the relationship to quiver until it eventually dies a natural death. That's why in any given circumstance, communication has to be given utmost importance. There are so many available media to ensure that the communication stays open. From snail mails and phone calls to chat systems and e-mails or e-cards. These media can be effective means to convey your hearts desires to your loved ones. Let them know about what you've been doing and thinking because in that way they will feel like they are there with you. This will also help you feel close even though you are miles apart.

2. Send off CARE PACKAGES

It can be anything -- a little gift of flowers; a collection of the letters he has sent you designed artistically into a scrapbook; or your sweetheart's favorite jewelry -- it's really only limited to your imagination. Engaging yourself in this way is beneficial for both of you. You get to concentrate on gathering these items and putting them together, thus keeping your mind off not being together to a certain extent. Your loved one will see how much effort you put into it and how much you care. Even if it is nothing more than a card,it shows they mean enough to you that you can take the time to let them know. It never takes much money to show a little love with a small gift. Trust me, it can melt a heart!

3. Keep yourself BUSY

You couldn't just sit there and wait 'til he comes back to you. What if he doesn't come back at all and all you did was sit and get your tummy flabby, won't that make you just miserable? You won't just be stunting your growth as an individual in the process but you'd also be developing emotional insecurities. In order to avoid that, you have to focus yourself on other things while waiting. Try to identify your passions. Get in touch with your creative nature. If you are a homebody, you can read tons of books which can help you grow intellectually and emotionally or you can choose to lounge before your computer and surf for hours to learn invaluable things over the internet. It's an endless "ways-to-make-yourself-busy" list and it is up to you to decide whichever you're interested to get involved in. But remember, being "busy" is not an excuse to forget your "special days" and worse yet, your loved one. You're doing it not just to occupy yourself but also to allow yourself to grow even with your lover's absence.

4. HONESTY is the best policy

The path to true intimacy and connection especially in a long distance relationship is through "total honesty" to each other in the fullest sense of the words. By being authentic and telling your full truth to your loved one about your thoughts, feelings, needs, wants, issues, boundaries, etc., you are gradually building up a zone of confidence and comfort for both of you. This is very essential if you want your relationship to really last. Seeking to avoid conflict and maintain harmony by censoring yourself can work for a while but it won't take much time until your suppressed truth comes out in other ways, such as withdrawal, resentment, "acting out," etc. I know, sometimes, telling your whole truth can be difficult and even scary, but it will result in the kind of relationship that you really want-- a relationship where all the cards are laid in the table.

5. The value of TRUST

Trust is a very fundamental aspect in any relationship. That is because having trust in a relationship takes away doubt. When you trust someone you never have to question their motivation about anything and with mutual trust that relationship is solid. You must learn to be true to the relationship and must never give way to insecurities, strange feelings, suspicions and quick impulses because these will only bring your relationship down. Don't push away negative comments, or advice. Just trust in yourself and your partner. If you two are true to each other and have no hidden motives then you'll be alright. Remember "Love never fails."

6. COMMITMENT is a habit not an achievement

In every relationship, it is a must to be able to learn how to commit and be committed. For most long distance relationships, the very reason why they fail is because both parties couldn't go on with the commitment and they feel too weak to withstand the tribulations of time.If you have committed yourselves to each other without shilly-shallying, then you have a good promise ahead of you.Your comitment to each other will keep the passion alive and the fires burning thus sustaining the growth of the relationship.

7. PATIENCE is a virtue

Being in a long distance relationship requires being steadfast and persevering. If you aren't this kind of person and you're involved in a long distance relationship, then as much as now, you better try to learn to be patient. Focus your attention on all the positive aspects of the relationship and never give your hopes up. Showing that you value your partner and the relationship and that you are willing to work patiently through it will let them know you truly love them.

8. WEBCAM

This is applicable only for those who have the comfort of having their own personal computers at home.But for those who don't, there are computers-for-rent in cafe's with webcams already attached to the computer system. Having a webcam is actually very fun and exciting. Even if you aren't together but looking at each other's face in the broad screen makes you feel like you're just so close, so near to your loved one. My boyfriend and I use Yahoo messenger to express our emotions with smileys and it's melting my heart to see him smile in the cam when he gets my messages.

9. Make special occasions SPECIAL

It is not everyday that a special day comes so when it does, it must be celebrated no matter how far apart you are. When I speak of special occasions, I mean birthdays, anniversaries, Christmas, New Year and Valentine's Day. During these occasions, you can plan out some heavy-duty phone call or an extended online time for the evening. Regardless of whether you talk every night or a couple times a week, be sure you both carve out some time for that particular night. If you're too stingy to settle on a lengthy phone call, but have cheap and unlimited online access, plan to send instant messages to each other or meet in a private chatroom somewhere. If you can't be together, at least you can be "talking" and "spending some private moments together".

10. ENJOY LIFE!

Not because your loved one is away, it doesn't mean that your "life" is taken away with him as he sets on for greener pastures. You have your own life to live and you must live it up to the purpose you were created for, with or without your loved one.Anyway, we have our family and friends. What are these social beings surrounding us created for anyway?

Remember,there are definite hardships associated with this relationship style but it is important that those who thrive in a long distance relationship see the suffering, difficulties, distance and time as tools in cultivating their love and rearing up the maturity in their relationship. The best you can do is to strive to be the best of who you are as a person while your partner is away so that when he comes back to you, you are already a full-grown individual whom he will love even more and be more proud of more than ever! For now, just be happy in knowing that across the miles there is someone who thinks you are so special, they are willing to engage in a terrible thing such as a long distance relationship. Keep in mind that your suffering is not forever since your loved one will be back soon and when that time comes, everything will be much sweeter than it was back then.

7 ways to improve relationships

2005-08-03T23:21:00.000+08:00

Good relationships don't just happen. I've heard many of my clients state that, "If I have to work at it, then it's not the right relationship." This is not a true statement, any more than it's true that you don't have to work at good physical health through exercise, eating well, and stress reduction.
I've discovered, in the 35 years that I've been counseling couples, 7 choices you can make that will not only improve your relationship, but can turn a failing relationship into a successful one.

TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOURSELF

This is the most important choice you can make to improve your relationship. This means that you learn how to take responsibility for your own feelings and needs. This means that instead of trying to get your partner to make you feel happy and secure, you learn how to do this for yourself through your own thoughts and actions. This means learning to treat yourself with kindness, caring, compassion, and acceptance instead of self-judgment. Self-judgment will always make you feel unhappy and insecure, no matter how wonderfully your partner is treating you.

For example, instead of getting angry at your partner for your feelings of abandonment when he or she is late, preoccupied and not listening to you, not turned on sexually, and so on, you would explore your own feelings of abandonment and discover how you might be abandoning yourself.

When you learn how to take full, 100% responsibility for yourself, then you stop blaming your partner for your upsets. Since blaming one's partner for one's own unhappiness is the number one cause of relationship problems, learning how to take loving care of yourself is vital to a good relationship.

KINDNESS, COMPASSION, ACCEPTANCE

Treat others the way you want to be treated. This is the essence of a truly spiritual life. We all yearn to be treated lovingly -- with kindness, compassion, understanding, and acceptance. We need to treat ourselves this way, and we need to treat our partner and others this way. Relationships flourish when both people treat each other with kindness. While there are no guarantees, often treating another with kindness brings kindness in return. If your partner is consistently angry, judgmental, uncaring and unkind, then you need to focus on what would be loving to yourself rather than reverting to anger, blame, judgment, withdrawal, resistance, or compliance. Kindness to others does not mean sacrificing yourself. Always remember that taking responsibility for yourself rather than blaming others is the most important thing you can do. If you are consistently kind to yourself and your partner, and your partner is consistently angry, blaming, withdrawn and unavailable, then you either have to accept a distant relationship, or you need to leave the relationship. You cannot make your partner change -- you can only change yourself.

LEARNING INSTEAD OF CONTROLLING

When conflict occurs, you always have two choices regarding how to handle the conflict: you can open to learning about yourself and your partner and discover the deeper issues of the conflict, or you can try to win, or at least not lose, through some form of controlling behavior. We've all learning many overt and subtle ways of trying to control others into behaving the way we want: anger, blame, judgment, niceness, compliance, caretaking, resistance, withdrawal of love, explaining, teaching, defending, lying, denying, and so on. All the ways we try to control create even more conflict. Remembering to learn instead of control is a vital part of improving your relationship.

For example, most people have two major fears that become activated in relationships: the fear of abandonment -- of losing the other - and the fear of engulfment -- of losing oneself. When these fears get activated, most people immediately protect themselves against these fears with their controlling behavior. But if you chose to learn about your fears instead of attempt to control your partner, your fear would eventually heal. This is how we grow emotionally and spiritually -- by learning instead of controlling.

CREATE DATE TIMES

When people first fall in love, they make time for each other. Then, especially after getting married, they get busy. Relationships need time to thrive. It is vitally important to set aside specific times to be together -- to talk, play, make love. Intimacy cannot be maintained without time together.

GRATITUDE INSTEAD OF COMPLAINTS

Positive energy flows between two people when there is an "attitude of gratitude." Constant complaints creates a heavy, negative energy, which is not fun to be around. Practice being grateful for what you have rather than focusing on what you don't have. Complaints create stress, while gratitude creates inner peace, so gratitude creates not only emotional and relationship health, but physical health as well.

FUN AND PLAY

We all know that "work without play makes Jack a dull boy." Work without play makes for dull relationships as well. Relationships flourish when people laugh together, play together, and when humor is a part of everyday life. Stop taking everything so seriously and learn to see the funny side of life. Intimacy flourishes when there is lightness of being, not when everything is heavy.

SERVICE

A wonderful way of creating intimacy is to do service projects together. Giving to others fills the heart and creates deep satisfaction in the soul. Doing service moves you out of yourself and your own problems and supports a broader, more spiritual view of life.

If you and your partner agree to these 7 choices, you will be amazed at the improvement in your relationship!

at last...we were able to get the puppy we want...yesterday we went to quezon city at mayon st to check out the chowchow we saw on the ads over the net...when we saw him we didn't think twice whether to get him or not...so we made a deal with the owner till the puppy was sold...he is the grandson of the philippine champ according to his papers...it think it was 6 or 8 red marks...he was really adorable.....

after getting him we took pictures of jeepneys parked at mayon st for our ojt...then we went to up diliman to check out more jeeps...while driving hun and i were talking about the school...he said he is contented to study in a place like that...i told him i am not comfortable to study there coz since grade one till 4th yr hs i've been studying at csa and it is located inside dasmarinas village in makati...the only school inside dasma...surrounded by trees and big houses so i want a change in the environment...plus csb is near my house so it would be mmuch easier for me to travel everyday...then hun said that he wants to be at peace coz san beda is located at mendiola and you could just imagine the crowd...but then we both agreed on the frat issues and stuff...the conversation ended up us to be contended in csb .. hahaha weird...then we passed by the sunken garden and he told me the little trivia about that place...then we reached the chapel and saw a jeep parked in front of it so we took advantage of it...we took pictures (with the permission of the driver)

it was already 2 in the afternoon we haven't eaten our lunch so i asked him if we could eat..he told me he doesn't know where we could eat...the only place he knows is the place where he used to eat with the "other girl"...we didn't want to have issues coz she might be there so we just decided to eat somewhere else...we left up and went back to manila

we passed by mcdo drive thru at jp rizal...then we went to his house coz the puppy might be dizzy...when we got home...we played with him a llittle and then we slept coz we were really tired...

i wasn't able to go to class coz of migraine...at around 6:30 we went to cartimar to check out the prices of the dog cage...then the rain poured!!! good thing we were wearing our jackets and we brought an umbreall with us...but still we got wet...i was teasing him that it was a sweet moment coz other are saying "dancing in the rain" with our situation last night it was "dancing in the storm"...other say "tuwing umuulan at kapiling ka"...with us..."tuwing bumabagyo at kapiling ka" hahaha....

around manila

2005-07-31T23:15:00.000+08:00

i woke up very early today...i went to gcf with my mom...we saw our ob gyne there dra. pareja...then after greeting her we left (of course after the service) so...we went to g4 and ate our lunch at cibo...i had spagghetini bolognese and my mom had squash soup...then we went to the optical shop to check out new eye glasses...i have finally chosen a new glasses for me...im gonna get it next week...then we went around the mall coz we were waiting for hun to arrive coz we will go to las pinas...so mom and i went to terranova (haha i got to shop again!)

we got tired so we went to starbucks (the one beside tutto moda)...then hun called up and said he' already at bread talk...then we left g4 and brought mom home...

the adventure starts here....

first stop was at las pinas...when we got there at bf, the puppies were already sold at 10 in the morning...then the last one puppy that was left was already reserved...we got really disappointed coz the one that was left was the one that we are planning to get...we cou;dn't leave the place...i felt sorry for hun coz he really wanted the puppy...hun lost his hope in getting a new puppy...coz he sold his phone just to get the puppy and yet he sold it for nothing...i wanted to cheer him up...so i got the list of the poms we saw over the net and called them one by one...we found one and it was located in novaliches...the price was 10k and its already 7months so he didn't really want to get it...then we went to the inet cafe and searched for breeders...we found one at caloocan...so we called them up and told them to expect us within the day...

we went to caloocan...hun didn't know how to go there...i told him i know the way coz we used to pass that area in going to valenzuela...when we saw the puppy...we were not convinced that it was a pure pom...so we just told them that we will just contact them within the week...

so our next stop was at novalliches...we went to quezon ave coz we thought that the place was near fairview coz the breeder told us that they live near sm fairview...in short we went in circles!!!! we ended up being lost in fairview and when we reached bf homes in novalicehs we didn't agree with the price...its not negotiable!! so we didn't get the puppy!

we are really disappointed!!! the owner was too stupid! first she gavev us the wrong directions!!! second she was irritating!! third we cant talk to her nicely coz she kept on giving stupid reasons...fourth she didn't even know what a credit card is!!! grrrr!!!! it was one hell of an experience talking to her!

on the other hand...hun was thankful coz even though the day didn't go well according to what we've planned...we are still happy with each other...maybe the puppies were not just meant to be...maybe we could still get something better... ..

goin crazy

2005-07-27T23:22:00.000+08:00

Ever since the day you went away and left me lonely and cold
My life just hasn't been the same ohh baby, nooo
When I looked into your eyes the moment that I let you go
I just broke down (down)

Baby if I ever get the chance to be with you again I would sacrifice
Cuz the feeling that I feel within
No other man would ever make me feel so right
Its nice to smile when I get your phone call at night
But I'd rather have you here with me, right next to me
I miss the way you hold me tight

I gotta let you know I feel so weak without your touch
I never thought that I could ever love a man so much
I gotta let you know I think that we are destiny
For you I'd cross the world, for you I'd do anything

Thats right baby I'm going crazy
I need to be your lady
I've been thinking lately
That you and me, yes we can make it
Just ride with me, roll with me I'm in love with you baby

Break it down now I'll tell you what I feel
From the moment that I met you its been so damn real
My heart seems to skip another beat
Every time we speak, I can't believe I feel so weak
Tell me that you really need me and you want me and you miss me
And you love me I'm your lady
I'll be around waiting for you I'll put it down be the woman for you

I'm falling so deep for you crazy over for you
I`m calling, calling out to you what am I going to do?
It's true, no fronting
Its you and no other I can no longer go on without you
I'll just break down (down)

I gotta let you know I feel so weak without your touch
I never thought that I could ever love a man so much
I gotta let you know I think that we are destiny
For you I'd cross the world, for you I'd do anything

Thats right baby I'm going crazy

feeling of love

2005-07-27T02:11:00.000+08:00

Taken hostage by feelings we can't explain.
It's lead us through happiness and pain.
Where it came from we'll have no clue.
Now we don't know what to do.
Unexplainable feelings have awaken our souls.
But have started to take a vast toll.
Going through life with feelings like this.
Amazes me how people exist.
How do you tell them in words what you mean.
When their so worldly.
So where do you find the words to say,
I love you now, and more each day!

love will show you everything

2005-07-26T00:17:00.000+08:00

Today, today I bet my life
You have no idea
What I feel inside
Don't, be afraid to let it show
For you'll never know
If you let it hide

I love you
You love me
Take this gift and don't ask why
Cause if you will let me
I'll take what scares you
Hold it deep inside
And if you ask me why I'm with you
And why I'll never
Leave
Love will show you everything

One day
When youth is just a memory
I know you'll be standing right next to me

I love you
You love me
Take this gift and don't ask why
Cause if you will let me
I'll take what scares you
Hold it deep inside
And if you ask me why I'm with you
And why I'll never
Leave
My love will show you everything
My love will show you everything
My love will show you everything
My love will show you everything

beautiful speech

2005-07-23T00:55:00.000+08:00

Steve Jobs Speech to the 2005 graduating class at Stanford University

"I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of
the finest universities in the world. I never graduated from college.
Truth be told, this is the closest I've ever gotten to a college
graduation. Today I want to tell you three stories from my life.

That's it. No big deal. Just three stories.

The first story is about connecting the dots.

I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then
stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really
quit. So why did I drop out? It started before I was born. My biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption.
She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, so
everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and
his wife. Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute
that they really wanted a girl. So my parents, who were on a waiting
list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: "We have an unexpected
baby boy; do you want him?" They said: "Of course." My biological
mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and
that my father had never graduated from high school. She refused to sign
the final adoption papers. She only relented a few months later when my
parents promised that I would someday go to college.

And 17 years later I did go to college. But I naively chose a college
that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class
parents' savings were being spent on my college tuition. After six
months, I couldn't see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to do
with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out.
And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their
entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out
OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the
best decisions I ever made. The minute I dropped out I could stop
taking the required classes that didn't interest me, and begin dropping in
on the ones that looked interesting.

It wasn't all romantic. I didn't have a dorm room, so I slept on the
floor in friends' rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5¢ deposits to
buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday
night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I loved it.
And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and
intuition turned out to be priceless later on. Let me give you one example:

Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy
instruction in the country. Throughout the campus every poster, every label
on every drawer, was beautifully hand calligraphed. Because I had
dropped out and didn't have to take the normal classes, I decided to take a
calligraphy class to learn how to do this. I learned about serif and san
serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different
letter combinations, about what makes great typography great. It was
beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can't
capture, and I found it fascinating.

None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life.
But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh
computer, it all came back to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. It was
the first computer with beautiful typography. If I had never dropped in
on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple
typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied
the Mac, its likely that no personal computer would have them. If I had
never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy
class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography
that they do. O> f course it was impossible to connect the dots looking
forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking
backwards ten years later.

Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only
connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will
somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something - your gut,
destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down,
and it has made all the difference in my life.

My second story is about love and loss.

I was lucky - I found what I loved to do early in life. Woz and I
started Apple in my parents garage when I was 20. We worked hard, and in
10 years Apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2
billion company with over 4000 employees. We had just released our
finest creation - the Macintosh - a year earlier, and I had just turned 30.
And then I got fired. How can you get fired from a company you started?
Well, as Apple grew we hired someone who I thought was very talented to
run the company with me, and for the first year or so things went well.
But then our visions of the future began to diverge and eventually we
had a falling out. When we did, our Board of Directors sided with him.
So at 30 I was out. And very publicly out. What had been the focus of my
entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.

I really didn't know what to do for a few months. I felt that I had
let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down - that I had dropped
the baton as it was being passed to me. I met with David Packard and Bob
Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly. I was a very
public failure, and I even thought about running away from the valley. But
something slowly began to dawn on me - I still loved what I did. The
turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit. I had been
rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.

I didn't see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple
was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness
of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner
again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most
creative periods of my life.

During the next five years, I started a company named NeXT, another
company named Pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would
become my wife. Pixar went on to create the worlds first computer
animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation
studio in the world. In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT, I
retuned to Apple, and the technology we developed at NeXT is at the
heart of Apple's current renaissance. And Laurene and have a wonderful
family together.

I'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn't been
fired from Apple. It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient
needed it. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick.

Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me
going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And
that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is
going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly
satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do
great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep
looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when
you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and
better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't
settle.

My third story is about death.

When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: "If you live
each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be
right." It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years,
I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today
were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do
today?" And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a
row, I know I need to change something.

Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've
ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost
everything - all external expectations, all pride, all fear of
embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death,
leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to
die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have
something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow
your heart.

About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I had a scan at 7:30 in
the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas. I didn't
even know what a pancreas was. The doctors told me this was almost
certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should expect to live
no longer than three to six months. My doctor advised me to go home and
get my affairs in order, which is doctor's code for prepare to die. It
means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you'd have the
next 10 years to tell them in just a few months. It means to make sure
everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your
family. It means to say your goodbyes.

I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that evening I had a
biopsy, where they stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my stomach and
into my intestines, put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells
from the tumor. I was sedated, but my wife, who was there, told me that
when they viewed the cells under a microscope the doctors started
crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer
that is curable with surgery. I had the surgery and I'm fine now.

This was the closest I've been to facing death, and I hope its the
closest I get for a few more decades. Having lived through it, I can now
say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful
but purely intellectual concept:

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want
to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No
one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is
very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change
agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is
you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the
old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.
Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other
people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your
own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your
heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to
become. Everything else is secondary.

When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole
Earth Catalog, which was one of the bibles of my generation. It was
created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park,
and he brought it to life with his poetic touch. This was in the late
1960's, before personal computers and desktop publishing, so it was all
made with typewriters, scissors, and polaroid cameras. It was sort of
like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along: it was
idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions. Stewart
and his team put out several issues of The Whole Earth Catalog, and then
when it had run its course, they put out a final issue. It was the
mid-1970s, and I was your age. On the back cover of their final issue was a
photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find
yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous. Beneath it were the
words: "Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish." It was their farewell message as
they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. And I have always wished that
for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for
you.

Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.

Thank you all very much." - Steve Jobs - June 2005

sad story

2005-07-22T01:46:00.000+08:00

This is really sad. If you have problems in your
relationships, try and fix them. Dont pretend its
okay. Dont push your girls away, they are
everything to you. Maybe the best thing for you.
Listen to them, Treat them like princesses, go out
of your way once and a while for them, take care
of them when they are sad, and dont let go.

Girl: hey baby i want to show you....
Boy: ( cutting her off ) ugh i'm so mad
Girl: why? whats wrong ?
Boy: ugh everything
Girl: explain baby
Boy: just lost a championship game,
parents flipped out on me for no reason,
and im catching a cold
Girl: well hey there will always be other games,
you know ill take care of you when your sick,
what your parents flip about ?
Boy: they are making me pay them for a car repair
Girl: is it alot of money
Boy: no it just sucks
Boy: but hey i dont feel well im going to go lay
down
Boy: bye
Girl: wait i want to give you some...
Boy: cant it wait til tommorow ?
Girl: yeah sure
Girl: bye
Boy: bye

2 hours later a friend of hers asks her to go for
a drive ...she goes.....

her friend swerved to avoid a truck....hitting a
tree instead

her friend was killed instantly....shes in
critical condition

This is the conversation between her sister and
her boyfriend

Sister: omg ( crying )
Boy: what? whats wrong ?
Sister: my sister...your gf was involved in a
major car wreck
Boy: is she ok ? ?????
Sister: shes in critical condition
Boy: i'll be there in 10 minutes

He shows up to the hospital room ...standing
outside the door
going over the last conversation in his mind over
and over as he
heard the machines beep and beep and breathing
tubes pump

Boy: she wanted to give me something or tell me
something
Girls mom: yeah this...

it was an envelope smelling like she did sealed
with a kiss in lipstick

he opened it.....

it said ..... your everything to me....i love you
with everything i am
and everything i have...i want to spend the rest
of my life with you

sealed in it was a ripped movie ticket from the
first movie they went to

and the first picture they took together

he kissed the picture as a tear fell from his face
onto the picture

it looked as if in the picture she was crying

then the machines flatlined....3 minutes later she
was pronounced dead

the truth really hurts

2005-07-22T01:44:00.000+08:00

it does, believe me. and it sucks, coz it's really
hard to find, especially if you are waiting for the
truth to come to you.

so from experience, i learned to base in my
instincts in search for truth.

and now, it seems like a deja vu. and again, i dont
want to believe my instincts, because it really
seems to be true

and indeed, the truth really hurts

what hurts the most

Have you ever wondered which hurts the most?
Saying something and wishing you hadn't?
or saying nothing and wishing you had?
I guess the most important things are the hardest things to say.
Don't be afraid to tell someone you love them.
If you do, they might break y our heart...
if you don't, you might break theirs.
Have you ever decided not to become a couple because you were so afraid of losing what you already had with that person?
Your heart decides whom it likes and whom it doesn't.
You can't tell your heart what to do.
It does it on its own....when you least suspect it, or even when you don't want it to.
Have you ever wanted to love someone with everything you had, but that other person was too afraid to let you?
Too many of us stay walled up because we are too afraid to care too much...for fear that the other person does not care as much, or even at all.
Have you ever denied your feelings for someone because of your fear of rejection was too hard to handle?
We tell lies when we are afraid... afraid of what we don't know, afraid of what others will think, afraid of what will be found out about us.
But every time we tell a lie, the thing we fear grows stronger.
Life is all about risks and it requires you to jump.
Don't be a person who has to look back and wonder
what they would have done, or could have had.

What would you do if every ti me you fell in love you had to say good-bye?
What would you do if every time you wanted someone they would never be there?
What would you do if your best friend died tomorrow and you never got to tell them how you felt? (even if it is that you don't care anymore)
What would you do if you loved someone more than ever and you couldn't have them?
What would you do if you never got the chance to say I am friends with all of my family and they know I love them?
People live, but people die.
