My Dearest…

I couldn’t sleep last night because I know that it’s over between us. I’m not bitter any more, because I know that what we had was real. And if in some distant place in the future we see each other in our new lives, I’ll smile at you with joy and remember how we spent the summer beneath the trees, learning from each other and growing in love. The best love is the kind that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more, that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds, and that’s what you’ve given me. That’s what I hope to give to you forever. I love you. I’ll be seeing you.

(from The Notebook)

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. 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 wasn’t worth it. If he isn’t worth it now he’s not going to be worth it a year or 10 years from now. The one who’s right for you is out there waiting! Let go…

Could You be healer?
To a heart that’s been wounded
In a battle that’s never seen
Could You be teacher?
To a mind of confusion
Tell me what does this all mean

Are You deliverer?
Of an imprisoned feeling in chains
Can You set my spirit free?
And just one more question
Allow me this question
Could You be Messiah to me?
Could You be Messiah to me?

Could You be father?
To a soul that’s been abandoned
By a world to busy to hear
Could You be friend?
To a helpless survivor
Can You take away my fears?

I heard them all sharing
This newfound conviction in them
Are You all that they make You to be?
And just one more question
Allow me this question
Could You be Messiah to me?
Please be Messiah to me?

Now i’ve been looking for someone like You
And i’m so tired, i’m tired
I’ve read every book and i’ve sang every song
My mind maybe right but my heart feels so wrong
Tell me how much further can my life go along
Which way do the roads lead where do I belong?

Are You forgiver?
Of my most unknown secrets
Provider of all that I need
Could You be brother?
The one who knows better
Would You now stand in the lead?

When all this is over all the thunder and lightning
In the daylight just what will I see
The answers to my questions to all of my questions
Could You be Messiah to me?
Could You be Messiah to me?
Could You be Messiah ?
Please be Messiah to me…

One night a guy & a girl were driving home from the movies. The boy sensed there was something wrong because of the painful silence they shared between them that night. The girl then asked the boy to pull over because she wanted to talk. She told him that her feelings had changed & that it was time to move on. A silent tear slid down his cheek as he slowly reached into his pocket & passed her a folded note. At that moment, a drunk driver was speeding down that very same street. He swerved right into the driver’s seat, killing the boy. Miraculously, the girl survived. Remembering the note, she pulled it out & read it. “Without your love, I would die.”

A teacher put a large jar on her desk and next to it a bag of rocks. She filled the jar with the rocks. When she was done, she asked the class if the jar was full.

“Yes,” they declared.

The teacher took out a sack of gravel and dumped it into the jar, filling the spaces between the rocks. “Is the jar filled now?” she asked.

“Yes,” the students responded.

The teacher then produced a bag of sand and poured it into the jar, shaking it until the spaces between the rocks and gravel were filled. “What life lesson can we learn from this?” she asked.

One student said, “No matter how full your life seems, you can always take on a little more.”

“A fair interpretation,” the teacher said, “but maybe there’s another lesson.”

She emptied the jar and asked the student to fill it again, instructing him to put the rocks in last. No matter how hard he tried, they wouldn’t fit.

“The lesson is,” the teacher said, “if you don’t put the big rocks in first, you’ll never get them in.” She explained that the big rocks are the important things in life: family, friends, personal growth, helping others. If we fill our lives with only small stuff, we’ll never have enough room for the matters that make our lives worthy and worth living.

This is an important life lesson. We all can live fuller and more fulfilling lives if we set priorities and pay more attention to our choices. What are we spending our time and money on? Who gets our best attention? Who gets the leftovers? Unless we consciously distinguish between rocks, gravel, and sand in our lives, we’re likely to neglect or forget the things that really matter.

Look at me, I’m in a place
I never thought I’d be
Don’t have the strength
To fight anymore
Or a reason not to leave
So tell me why I still keep holding on
To something I just cannot see

What makes you stay?
When your world falls apart…
What makes you try one more time
When it’s not in your heart…
At the end of your rope,
When you can’t find any hope…
You still look at him and say,
I just can’t walk away…
Tell me what makes you stay?

I’m not afraid, of living alone
I was alone before he came
I’ve been in love, many times before
But this time’s not the same
I’ve always been the first to say goodbye
Now it’s the last thing I can do

When it goes this deep
And feels this strong
I can’t convince myself
That this love is wrong

1) Faith is the ability not to panic;
2) If you worry, you didn’t pray. If you pray, don’t worry;
3) Do the math, count your blessings;
4) God wants spiritual truths, not religious nuts;
5) Laugh everyday, it’s like inner jogging;
6) Growing old is inevitable, growing up is optional;
7) Silence is often misinterpreted, but never misquoted;
There is no key to happiness, the door is always open!

I want you to know, I’m so happy to have you in my life. You taught me the real meaning of love. There have been times when it was hard… but always, somehow I made it. I made it through… ’cause every moment that I’ve spent hurting, there was a moment that I spent, just LOVING YOU.

Everybody thinks his or her problem is big and unique in this world. Many of us keep on thinking, worrying, and hurting ourselves when some problem arises in our life because we keep talking to ourselves and try to simply escape away from the pain.

To illustrate the point here is a little story:

There was once an angel who took on a project for solving problems - of the human kind. It was a very intelligent angel and wanted to score 100 percent, so it invited all the people who were thinking a lot about their problems and gave them a chit of paper. The angel instructed the people to write their problems down on this chit but to not write down their names.

Everybody wrote their problems in detail and folded the chit in half. Then they were told to put their paper in a common box placed before the angel.

“Now,” the angel said, “Those who want to exchange their problems, please come forward. Pick a chit and your problems will be exchanged with the one on their chosen chit.”

There were all sorts of people gathered there: poor, rich, smart, handicapped. Every kind of person you can imagine. They all started picking and reading the other person’s problem. To the angel’s and everyone’s surprise, their remarks and reactions were the same.

“Let me remain with my existing problem, I can manage it. Oh God, I didn’t know this type of problem was also here in the world,” they exclaimed. They all now knew the extremity of the problems faced by others.

The summary is simple. Just don’t worry about the problems. Problems are like wounds. They have their time and then they disappear. The more we think about them, the longer they remain. So, leave your worries behind and live happier forever.
