MY DEFINTION OF LOVE BY NEILLE

My Definition of LOVE

A true love can bear the longitude of waiting even if it takes forever.

When confused about love, follow your heart. It may not always be right, but you will have the memories to make you smile. If your head tells you one thing and your heart tells you another thing, before you decide, you should first think whether you have a better head or heart. It’s okay to kiss a fool or to let the fool kiss you but never let a kiss fool you.

Don’t find love, let it find you, that’s why it’s called falling in love because you don’t force yourself to fall, you just fall. Never be ashamed to show love when you feel it because one day you might realize that love is already afraid to show itself to you.

To love someone is to have courage to walk away and let go the other one who wishes to be free, no matter how much it hurts.

Never say, “I LOVE YOU” when you don’t even care. Never talk about feelings if they aren’t there. Never touch a heart if you mean to break it. Never look in the eyes if all you have to say is a lie, and never say hello if you mean goodbye. Love is like a butterfly, the more you chase it the more it eludes you, but if you just let it fly, it would come to you when the least you expect. On the course of love people must teach their hearts to be brave enough to let go when they realized when things are not meant to be after all. Most relationship are like traffic signs, 1 way, 2 way, do not enter, slippery when wet, no U turn, no left turn, but what i like most is to give way. I mean what’s the use of forcing yourself to someone, or why believe something not likely to prosper. I think it will just be a waste of time.

Words and hearts should be handled with care, for words when spoken and hearts when broken are the hardest things to repair.

The simplest pick-up line doesn’t have so many words, all I need is “I”

for me to say, “LOVE” for me to share it and “YOU” for me to give it.

Don’t share your tears to someone who hurt you. Don’t long for the person if they left. Don’t feel sorry if you fail when you try your best. Someone out there is more deserving of your time and love.

If I tell you “I LOVE YOU” you shouldn’t wonder why, or how, or since when or for how long because I wouldn’t have a single answer except to tell you again.

In the game of love, it doesn’t matter who win or lose, what is important is that you know when to hold on and when to let go. It’s the presence of the soul that makes you “live”. If your heart gets broken by the time you truly love, don’t let go of the love for the person but let go of the person. You’ll never know love might be sweeter the second time around.

It’s hard to find true love because people are too caught up looking for the perfect person, they don’t realize that love is not finding the perfect person but being the perfect person for someone else. Love knows no reason, love knows no lie, love defers all reason, love has no eyes, but love is not blind, they can see but they don’t mind. We are sometimes afraid to say “I LOVE YOU” instead we say “I MISS YOU” but often don’t realize he/she is also feeling the same feelings that you do.

Love not because the person is the only one but because the person is the one you are willing to give up everything because it’s worth fighting for. It’s hard to pretend to love someone that you don’t but it’s harder to pretend you don’t love someone that you do. Once you had love, you will always love. For what’s on your mind may escape, but what’s on your heart will always remain forever.

Love is not how to forget but rather how to forgive. It is not how you listen but how you understand. Not by what you say, but by what you do and not by what you receive but what you give. True love wants a person to be happy even if you won’t be the one the person will share his/her happiness with. If you love someone don’t hold back, never hide your feelings, never economize your love and most of all never take the person for granted because you will never value what you have till its gone.

Sometimes we think that loving someone can be such a risky thing. How else would you win if you don’t take chances? You don’t lose by giving, you lose by holding back. Never try to impress someone to make him/her fall in love with you coz when you do you will have to keep the standard for the rest of your life. Never rush in love, for it never runs out.

Let love be the one to look for you, so that when you start fallin’ you will always know that feeling is sure.

YES!!! It drives you crazy, it makes you mad, jealous and sad, it even causes sleepless nights and it even break your heart. Well, come to think of it, it is healthy to fall in love. True love is not when the heart beats faster or fastest, but when it beats no more and yet the love is still there. If you have reason why you love a person then you are using your mind. But if you love a person with no reason at all, then you are using your heart. Love is not a word to say when we feel guilty, not a right word to say when we like a person, but love really matters when we share our thoughts, our minds and our hearts. How do I say goodbye to someone I never hold? Why do I fear to fall for someone who was never really mine? Why do I miss someone I was never been with?

Why do I love someone whose love was never been truly mine?

greeting the new year was fun for me and i was happy to meet new friends and my cousin Cezreminded me and tap onto my shoulder and said that it’s a sign that my new year will be a happy one because i was full of joy again especially when i met someone named Gino.

boy, don’t cry

Dearest,

When was the last time you cried yourself to sleep? Not that I long for you to be emotionally distressed, enough for you to shed tears… Remember, you used to tell me, “Such a beautiful release it is to strum one’s emotional strings; to bathe naked one’s soul with the swelling eyes.”

Yes, it truly is human nature. Mama’s babe cries hard upon his first choking gasp of air—and I guess, it pays, sometimes to be mummy’s teary eyed grown-up. It brings back a sense of a new beginning—much like a re-birth.

But it’s hard isn’t it?

In this contemporary time when many are in physical, emotional, spiritual, social and even internal pain, and many thus find a sense of comfort in sobbing, shouldn’t I be thankful that I haven’t had found reason to cry?

As I grow older, I feel more fortified from the “sea of emotions” that I once attributed to life. Innocence lost leads to numbing out, I guess. It’s no pretty picture, but right now it is what I see.

I feel like singing now:
Hush little baby don’t you cry, mama’s go’nna buy you a Mocking Bird.
And if that Mocking Bird don’t mock, mama’s go’nna buy you a diamond ring.

Matter more than ideas has concerned me a lot lately. Not that I am focusing my energies into making myself rich. No sir! But, I hadn’t had the luxury of time to breathe-in figments. I miss doing this.

I remember myself cry every time I finish writing something which truly reflects my ideas– but not lately. No time even to write. How come, when I have owed much from this art, why have I deliberately allowed myself to find a block… a valid reason not to attempt writing.

The obsession of material concerns have taken control over subliminal forms of compulsion: crying, writing, deep-breathing, praying… keeping attuned with self. I truly miss my self.

Perhaps, it’s not just me. Maybe even you, my dearest, had you had time to cry whilst someone goes to buy you something so you could just hush… Be a child. Pretend that your diamonds do not glitter. Cry your heart out.

Four weeks have passed since we had this emotional separation.Finally, it is no longer painful. Tomorrow it’s gonna be new year’s eve. Am I glad to have slipped on the bathroom floor, though I didn’t cry because of pain, I was forced to have time to my self… and finally, write. But not cry =)

People say,real friend is hard to find,

and even to some it’s like looking for gold in the mine.

I guess God was quite gracious to me,

with little instructions He said,”My child just wait and see”.

It did not take too long for God to reveal,

the friend destined for me to feel.

The friendship that i have been seeking all my life,

was to be found if i’d look into the light.

With a gentle touch on my neck,

it gave me chills when i learned that his name was Hec.

And that very moment on i knew,

real friendship was in you!

yesterday, we had a big fight and that’s it,
I tell myself and everyone else that I am over my friendship with you because you are just not a good friend.
I wish I could say this to you directly, but you won’t listen. And even if you did it would probably just push you further away. Still, there is no other way to explain it. It is love and friendship — unmatched, but I do not care. I have nothing left to lose with you.

Those last things you said to me — they were not you. I know deep down you are so much better than that. You were scared and frustrated, and that is understandable after some of the things you have been through. But that was not you. You are a wonderful person with so much potential, if you would only take a chance and allow yourself to feel the things you are scared of. But instead you are letting your fears control you.

I know you believe things were meant to unfold this way. Bad timing, not meant to be — whatever you want to call it. I have moved on, and you have too. Still, I will always be here for you, if you decide that is what you want. It is never too late to make things better. Just reach out to me, and we can start over.
