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 his or her happiness means that you’re not part of it. Everything happens for the best. If the person you love doesn’t love you, 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 loving them. 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 its chapters. If you want to go on, then you have to leave the past behind as you turn the pages in the book called life.
Love is not destroyed by a single failure or won by a single kiss. It is a lifetimes 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. When trying to fall out of love, take some time to heal and then get back on 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 the risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is risking nothing! To reach for another is to risk involvement, to expose your feelings is to expose your true self; to love is to risk not! to be loved in return.
Defining "love": fall but do not stumble,
beconstantbut 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 will always last 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 someone means giving him or her freedom so they can choose to be 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 those were the things that
helped you grow.
Loving someone means giving him or her the freedom to find his or her 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 what true humanity is, 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 because every time we do, we get hurt, and then I finally figured out that’s why it’s called falling in love...
