IF YOU LOSE LOVE, THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT YOU
HAVE FAILED IN LOVE.


CRY IF YOU HAVE TO, BUT MAKE SURE THAT TEARS WASH
AWAY THE HURT AND THE BITTERNESS THAT THE PAST
LEFT YOU WITH. LET GO OF YESTERDAY AND LOVE
WILL FIND ITS WAY BACK TO YOU".

For all you people who say "I love you" when you
have no clue what love exactly is!!! Something to
ponder upon...

Are your palms sweaty, is your heart racing and
is your voice caught within your chest??
-It isn't love, it's LIKE.
You can't keep your eyes or hands off of them, am
I right??
-It isn't love, it's LUST.
Are you proud, and eager to show them off??
-It isn't love, it's LUCK.
Do you want them because you know they're there??
-It isn't love, it's LONELINESS.
Are you there because it's what everyone wants??
-It isn't love, it's LOYALTY.
Are you there because they kissed you, or held
your hands??
-It isn't love, it's LOW CONFIDENCE.
Do you stay for their confessions of love,
because you don't want to hurt them??
-It isn't love, it's PITY.
Do you belong to them because their sight makes
your heart skip a beat??
-it isn't love, it's INFATUATION.
Do you pardon their faults because you care about
them??
-It isn't love, it's FRIENDSHIP.
Do you tell them every day they are the only one
you think of???
-It isn't love, it's a LIE.
Are you willing to give all of your favorite
things for their sake??
-It isn't love, it's CHARITY.

Does your heart ache and break when they're sad??
-Then it's LOVE.
Do you cry for their pain, even when they're
strong??
-Then it's LOVE.
Do their eyes see your true heart, and touch your
soul so deeply it hurts??
-Then it's LOVE.
Do you stay because a blinding, incomprehensive
mix of pain and relation pulls you close and hold
you there??
-Then it's LOVE.
Do you accept their faults because they're a part
of who they are??
-Then it's LOVE.
Are you attracted to others, but stay with them
faithfully without regret??
-Then it's LOVE.
Would you give them your heart, your life, your
death??
-Then it's LOVE.

When we meet the right person to love, at the
right place, at the right time. That's chance.


When you meet someone you're attracted to, that's
not a choice. That's chance.


Being caught up in a moment (and there's a lot of
couples who get together because of this) is not a
choice, that's also chance.

The difference is, what happens afterwards? When
will you take that infatuation, that crush, that
mind-blowing attraction to the next level?
That's when all sanity goes back, you sit down and
then contemplate whether you want to make this
into a concrete relationship or just a fling.


If you decide to love the person, even with his
faults, that's not chance. That's choice.

When you choose to be with a person no matter
what, that's choice.


Even if you know there are many people out there
who are more attractive, smarter, and richer than
your mate, and yet, you decide to love your mate
just the same, that's choice.


Infatuation, crushes, attraction comes to us by
chance.


But true love that lasts is truly a choice.

Regarding soulmates, there's a beautiful movie
quote that I believe is so true about this--"Fate
brings you together, but it's still up to you to
make it happen."


I believe that soulmates exist and that there is
truly someone made for you.
But it's still up to you to make the choice if
you're going to do something about it or not.


We may meet our soulmates by chance, but loving
and staying with our soulmate is still a choice
we have to make
