IT hURTS TO LOVE SOMEONE

[Boo]

It hurts to love someone
and not be loved in return,
but what is most painful is to love someone
and never finding the courage to let the
person know how you feel.

Maybe God wants us to meet
a few wrong people
before meeting the right one
so that when we finally
meet the right person,
we should know how to be grateful for that gift.

Love is when you take away the feeling,
the passion, the romance -
and you find out you still care for that person.

A sad thing about life
is when you meet someone
that means a lot to you,
only to find out in the end,
that it was never bound to be
and you just have to let go.

When one door of happiness closes,
another opens but often we look
so long at the closed door
that we don't see the one
which has been opened for us.

The best kind of friend
is the one you could sit on a porch,
and swing with,
never say a word,
and then walk away
feeling like that was the best
conversation you've had.

It's true that we don't know
what we've got until we lose it,
but it's also true that we don't know
what we've been missing until it arrives.

Giving someone all your love
is never an assurance that they'll love you back,
don't expect love in return,
just wait for it to grow in their
hearts but if it doesn't,
be content it grew in yours.

There are things you love to hear
but you would never hear
it from the person from whom
you would like to hear it,
but don't be deaf to hear it from the person
who says it with his heart.

Never say goodbye
when you still want to try ,
never give up when
you still feel you can take it,
never say you don't love that person
anymore when you can't let go.

Love comes to those who still hope,
even though they've been disappointed,
to those who still believe ,
even though they've been betrayed,
need to love those who still love
even though they've been hurt before.

It takes a minute
to have a crush on someone,
an hour to like someone
and a day to love someone,
but it takes a lifetime
to forget someone.

Don't go for looks,
it can deceive,
don't go for wealth,
even that fades away.
Go for someone
who makes you smile
because only a smile
makes a dark day seem bright.
Hope you find that person.

There are moments in life
when you really miss someone
that you want to pick them
from your dreams
and hug them for real.
Hope you dream of that someone.

Dream what you want to dream,
go where you want to go,
be what you want to be,
cause you have only one life
and one chance to do all the
things you want in life.

May you have enough happiness
to make you sweet,
enough trials to make you strong,
enough sorrow to keep you human,
enough hope to make you happy
and enough money to buy me gifts
Always put yourself in other's shoes.
If you feel that it hurts you,
it probably hurts the person, too.

A careless word may kindle strife,
a cruel word may wreck a life,
a timely word may level stress,
a loving word may heal and bless.

The beginning of love
is to let those we love
be perfectly themselves,
and not to twist them with our own image,
otherwise, we love only
the reflection of ourselves we find in them.

The happiest of people
don't necessarily have the best of everything
they just make the most of everything
that comes along their way.

Happiness lies for those who cry,
those who hurt, those who
have searched and those who have tried.
For only they can appreciate
the importance of people
who have touched their lives.

Love starts with a smile,
develops with a kiss and ends with a tear.

The brightest future
will always be based on a forgotten past,
you can't go on well in life
until you let go of your past
failures and heartaches.

When you were born,
you were crying
and everyone around you was smiling,
live your life so that when you die,
you're smiling
and everyone around you is crying.
