WITH A SMILE
April 8th, 2006 by january4
Lift your head, baby, don’t be scared
Of the things that could go wrong along the way
You’ll get by with a smile
You can’t win at everything but you can try.
Baby, you don’t have to worry
‘Coz there ain’t no need to hurry
No one ever said that there’s an easy way
When they’re closing all their doors
And they don’t want you anymore
This sounds funny but I’ll say it anyway.
babe, I’ll stay through the bad times
Even if I have to fetch you everyday
I’ll get by if you smile
You can never be too happy in this life.
In a world where everybody
Hates a happy ending story
It’s a wonder love can make the world go round
And don’t let it bring you down
And turn your face into a frown
You’ll get along with a little prayer and a song.
(Too doo doo…)
Let me hear you sing it
(Too doo doo…)
In a world where everybody
Hates a happy ending story
It’s a wonder love can make the world go round
But don’t let it bring you down
And turn your face into a frown
You’ll get along with a little prayer and a song.
Lift your head, baby, don’t be scared
Of the things that could go wrong along the way
You’ll get by with a smile
Now it’s time to kiss away those tears goodbye

“This isn’t a perfect world and people do get hurt. You smile when you feel like crying. You act like you’re okay when you’re falling apart inside. And you let things go. You move on because there’s nothing else you can do”
“Someone once asked me, “Why do you always insist on taking the hard road?” I replied, “Why do you assume I see two roads?”
“This time it’s over. I’m keeping my heart. I’m going to be strong and not fall apart. I’ll get better. I’ll no longer cry. In a couple of weeks, I won’t want to die. I won’t want to go back. I’ll be able to sleep. It won’t hurt so bad and it won’t feel so deep”“Have you ever truly cared about someone more than you wanted to? Have you ever tried to love that person in spite of all the pain? Will you keep on loving that person even though that person is whispering someone else’s name?”
“It’s so hard to show everyone that I’m doing fine without you, when deep inside I’m not. It’s hard because I hate to smile when I really can’t hold back the tears. Cause as far as I can see you’re doing fine without me…”“I would like to stay a secret, like walking in the dark, if no one knows you, no one cares and no one breaks your heart”

AN IDIOT’S GUIDE TO LOVE
May 3rd, 2005 by january4
An Idiot’s Guide to Love
Only you can say what love really is for you, but then maybe I can help you define it by telling you what I believe it is not.
Despite what most people think, love isn’t selfless. You don’t love for the sake of other people. All emotions are selfish, self-centered. No one can force you to feel anything other than what you really feel. Emotions never lie, people just misinterpret or disregard them.
Love can’t be "learned". You can’t "learn to love" someone you don’t love. You just delude yourself into liking them.
Love isn’t alms. You don’t love someone because you feel sorry for them. That’s not love. That’s just pity.
Love isn’t need. It’s not love when you expect the other person to fill a gap in your life. If that need disappears or is filled by something or someone else, then the supposed "love" disappears too. If you love someone because you want security or happiness or contentment from him or her, you’re not going to get those things if they’re not within you in the first place.
Love isn’t "completion". You’re already complete as you are, you just need to discover and acknowledge it. It’s not love if you think you need someone to feel complete. If that feeling doesn’t come from you, you’re not going to get it anywhere else.
Love isn’t just a "feeling". It is both felt and known. Your emotion and reason must be in sync. "Love" without reason is just lust or shallow attraction. "Love" without emotion is simply justification and rationalization.
Love isn’t just in the present. You have to love who that person was and who that person will be.
Love isn’t supposed to drive you crazy. It’s not supposed to wreak havoc on your life. It’s supposed to inspire you into being the best possible version of yourself.

Reminders for those in Love and For Those Who will be in Love Someday

Reminders for those in Love and For Those Who will be in Love Someday
· Never try to change your loved one to suit your own taste. It defeats
the purpose of falling in love with him/her for what he/she really is.
* More often than not, it is THE EX (and MONEY) that couples often fight
about. Try not to. In the first place, both of you know very well that
you’re glad to have found each other and are not with your previous bf/gf
anymore. Choose which is more important: your love and relationship and not
something/someone else.
* After a fight and you stay up sad, can’t sleep and thinking of your loved
one, I guarantee that he/she is doing the same thing, too.(ows? hehehe) Do
not put off what you can still remedy today. A minor disagreement may turn
out to be a disaster tomorrow.
* After being with each other for so long, never forget the little things
! that made you fall in love with him/her more. Celebrate each day as if it
is the first ! time for both of you.
* Loving someone isn’t about seeing him/her as often as you can. It’s about
trusting each other that both of you love and yearn for one’s company. The
moment you start counting the number of times you call/see/spend time/talk
with each other then chances are the one who is keeping tabs has the
problem. Love is more than that. How can you miss each other if you are
always together? The best discovery you can make about true love is that
"You can go separately without growing apart."
* Too much jealousy can kill, but a little of it is healthy. Besides, it’s
nice to know that your loved one fears losing you.
* It’s pointless to be in a relationship if you can’t see yourself spending
the rest of your life with your partner. True love is not a pastime. Choose
someone whom you can share and talk things with and whom! you can be friends
with for when the ! passion runs out, your love for each other will remain.
* For guys: So what if your abs aren’t as defined or gush-worthy? Or you
don’t look any bit like Freddie Prinze Jr. or Tom Cruise? (ehehe!)For
girls: So what if you don’t have big boobs that are drool-worthy? Or you don’t
look any bit like Sarah Michelle Gellar or Nicole Kidman? (*wink*
*wink*)Whatever you feel you lack physically, your partner still sees you
as the hottest, most attractive person on earth. Never forget and take for
granted even the smallest detail that made you fall in love in the first
place about your partner and never get tired of saying sweet nothings to
each other
* Never underestimate the value of holding hands. It was the first time you
knew you love and are loved in return by the person you’re with now. And it
was the prelude to the kiss. "Let lips do what hands do: they kiss."
(Romeo&Juliet)!
· * Look forward to spending ! time with your partner. Time spent together
should never be an obligation or part of a routine because this leads to
taking the fun out of being with each other.
* Don’t undervalue laughter. Just like the previous statement, fun is also
a considerable aspect of a long-lasting relationship.
* Support each other. Motivate one another. Don’t be insecure at the
success of your loved one. Besides, you may not know it, but you play a
vital role in inspiring him/her.
* Small random acts of sweetness have guaranteed tremendous effects. Take
time everyday to show your appreciation for each other.
* When you fight, what’s the use of prolonging your agony? Don’t let pride
waste time that should be spent happy together.
* Say "I love you" because you mean it, and not because you have to. Don’t
hold back on saying it out of the blue, too. Like it said in the movie, the
moment may just pass yo! u by so when you feel like sa! ying it and even if
you don’t…never forget to tell your partner how much he/she means to you and how much you love him/her. Besides, you’ll never get a negative reaction
from doing so. And it will feel good for the both of you.
* Never take for granted the word "friend" in boyfriend and girlfriend. Do
all the sweet, mushy stuff that couples do, but don’t ever forget that your
partner is a friend, too.
"Love can leave your heart like shattered glass, but keep in mind that
there’s someone who’ll be willing to endure the pain of picking up the
pieces so you could be whole again…"
