When you think of your past love, you
may view it as a failure. But when you find a new
love, you view the past as a teacher. In the game of
love, it doesn’t really matter who won or who
lost. What is important is you know when to hold
on and when to let go! You know you really love
someone when you want him or her to be happy,
even if their happiness means that you’re not
part of it. Everything happens for the best. If
the person you love doesn’t love you back, don’t
be afraid to love someone else again, for you’ll
never know unless you give it a try.
You’ll never love a person you love unless you
risk for love. Love strives in hurting. If you
don’t get hurt, you don’t learn how to love. Love
doesn’t hurt all the time. Though the hurting is
still there to test you, to help you grow. Don’t
find love, let love find you. That’s why it’s
called falling in love because you don’t force
yourself to fall. You just fall.
You cannot finish a book without closing it’s
chapters. If you want to go on, then you have to
leave the past as you turn the pages. Love is not
destroyed by a single failure or won by a single
caress. It is a lifetime venture in which we are
always learning, discovering and growing. The
greatest irony of love is letting go when you
need to hold on and holding on when you need to
let go. We lose someone we love only when we
are destined to find someone else who can love us
even more than we can love ourselves.
On falling out of love, take some time to heal
and then get beckon the horse. But don’t ever
make the same mistake of riding the same one
that threw you the first time. To love is to risk
rejection, to live is to risk dying, to hope is
to risk failure. But risk must be taken
because the greatest hazard in life is risk
nothing! To reach for another is to risk
involvement, to expose your feelings is to expose
true self, to love is to risk not to be loved in
return.
How to define love: fall but do not stumble, be
constant but not too persistent, share and never
be unfair, understand and try not to demand, hurt
but never keep the pain. Love is like a knife. It
can stab the heart or it can carve wonderful
images into the soul that always last for a
lifetime.
Love is supposed to be the most wonderful
feeling. It should inspire you and give you joy
and strength. But sometimes the things that give
you joy can also hurt you in the end. Loving
people means giving them
the freedom who they
choose to be and where they choose to be. For all
the heartaches and the tears, for gloomy days and
fruitless years, you should give thanks, for you
know, that there were the things that helped you
grow. Loving someone means giving him the
freedom
to find his way, whether it leads towards you or
away from you. Love is a painful risk to take but
the risk must be taken no matter how scary or
painful, for only then you’ll experience the
fullness of humanity and that is love.
Only love can hurt your heart, fill you with
desire and tear you apart. Only love can make you
cry and only love knows why. If you’re not ready
to cry, if you’re not ready to take the risk, if
you’re not ready to feel the pain, then you’re
not ready to fall in love. There was a time in
our lives when we became afraid to fall in
love ‘coz every time we do, we get hurt, then i
figured that’s why it’s called falling in love.
