Decided to post this here. I got it from a friend and find it so true..
Life is..
... not just the number of friends' shoulders whom you cry on, but also the number of friends who cry on your shoulder.
... not just being there for your family when they need you, but also the times when they want you there.
... not the number of lips you've kissed, but the kisses that take your breath away.
... doing your best not just in jobs that you like, but also jobs that you hate.
... not the number of movies you've watched, but the movies that teared or stirred you emotionally.
... not just having someone to hold when you're down, but someone to hug when you're watching TV.
... not the number of books you've read, but the amount of knowledge that you share.
... laughing not only because of hilarious jokes, but also because you're truly happy.
... not the number of kids you've had, but the number you've nurtured.
... not about the people that you loved, but the ways you've displayed your love.
... not about having a big house, but having a home.
... not about playing mahjong on Friday nights, but having the company of 3 others who share a similar interest.
... not about the number of people you've slept with, but the amount of orgasms you've had.
... not just bringing joy to people whom you love, but also those who need them.
... not about looking youthful, but being young spiritually.
Lastly, life is not about the number of people who would be attending your funeral, but those, whose lives you had played a part in shaping.
Love is..
Love is like a butterfly. The more you chase it, the more it eludes you. But if you just let it fly, it will come to you when you least expect it.
Love can make you happy but often it hurts, but love's only special when you give it to someone who is really worth it. So take your time and choose the best.
Love isnt about becoming somebody else's perfect person. It's about finding someone who helps you become the best person you can be.Never say 'I love you' if you dont care. Never talk about feelings if they arent there. Never touch a life if you mean to break a heart. Never look in the eye when all you do is lie.
The cruelest thing a guy can do to a girl is to let her fall in love when he doesnt intend to catch her fall and it works both ways..
Love is not about 'it's your fault', but 'I'm sorry.' Not 'where are you', but 'I'm right here.' Not 'how could you', but 'I understand.' Not 'I wish you were', but 'I'm thankful you are.'
The true measure of compatibility is not the years spent together but how good you are for each other.Heartbreaks last as long as you want and cut as deep as you allow them to go. The challenge is not how to survive heartbreaks but to learn from them.How to be in love?Fall but dont stumble, be consistent but not too persistent, share and never be unfair, understand and try not to demand, and get hurt but never keep the pain.
It breaks your heart to see the one you love happy with someone else but it's more painful to know that the one you love is unhappy with you.
Love hurts when you break up with someone. It hurts even more when someone breaks up with you.
But love hurts the most when the person you love has no idea how you feel.A sad thing about life is when you meet someone and fall in love, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be and that you have wasted years on someone who wasnt worth it. If he isnt worth it now he's not going to be worth it a year or 10 years from now. Just let go..
I hope all my readers, may your love be ~ honest, strong, mature, never-changing, uplifting, protective, encouraging, rewarding and unselfish.
