374. One great thing in life is finding someone who knows all of your mistakes and imperfections, yet, still finds you absolutely amazing. :)

375. when you're out there looking for that perfect person.. keep this things in mind:
people change no matter how hard they try not to..
as you grow older, you mature & with each new level of maturity comes different ideas, different needs and wants. the person who was perfect for you at 20's could be the person you hate at 30's.
you have to find someone who will: grow old with you, change with you, laugh with you & cry with you..
...remember that there is no such perfect person in this world but there will always be someone who will complete you.. :)

381. understand how God has beautifully added one more day in your life - not because you need it, but because someone else needs you..

382. Life is a Paradox:
What you want you don't get
What you get you don't enjoy
What you enjoy is not permanent
What is permanent is boring.
That's life.
But they are meant to build the best in you! :)

383. 'seduction isn't about forcing someone to do something which they don't wanna do, its about pushing someone to do things which they secretly wanna do..' :)

384. One lie is enough to break trust.
One sentence is enough to break a heart.
One second is enough to lose a battle.

One smile is enough to fall in love.
One touch is enough to heal a wounded heart.
But whatever our pain, whatever our struggle..One GOD is MORE thank enough..

385. "do you know what happens when you hurt people?"

..who wants to buy my heart? satisfaction guaranteed. it has free service charge & a lifetime warranty. so if you're asking for the price. well, you're in for a bargain. it only costs your love..

389. Two kids playing in a park began to argue.
One said: I hate you! I'll never play with you again!

For a few moments they played separately. Then later they're playing together again.

Simply because it's more important for them to be happy than to be right.

First is I want to spend the rest of my life with a great person.

O mas hihigpitan mo pa ang paghawak sa kanya?

397. almost everyone's asking why some people don't want to have relationships again.
simple answer..
...they wouldn't go for a relationship which they know will not grow. why bother being being with someone just for the sake of being with someone. they are not afraid to take the risk of falling in love.. they are not just dumb to be with someone they don't see spending years with..
...it may be hard and painful but it's for the better.

398. "you can have anything you want if you're willing to sacrifice everything you have.. nothing goes without a price. so before you get in the battle, decide how much you are will to lose.."

312. just a thought:
"why ruin the perfectly-arranged petals of a beautiful flower when you know from the start that he/she loves you not"

It will show up in the most unexpected way.. :)

323. "The most hurtful kind of lies are the ones delivered by the people you care about the most. It makes you doubt everything you know and makes you wonder why you care so much and worst of all, it puts you in the position of deciding whether to tell them you know they're lying or act like you're too dull to even know the difference. Keep this in mind the next time you lie to someone who cares about you, because more often than not, they know and it hurts a lot." - Grey's Anatomy

it must be true love, which shows itself in action.
Relationships take time & effort, and the best way to spell love is TIME..

340. There were times I love to hate you. And then I love to love you. It's like I want to throw you off a cliff, then rush to the bottom to catch you.

341. Forgive my mind for it can't forget how life began the day we met. Forgive my soul for it sees that we're really meant to be. Forgive this feeling I just can't kill and forgive my heart, it loves you still.

342. If you want someone...

350. more often than not, a relationship sucks. it could crush you, it might even kill you..
..so would you go for Scofield's advice: "stay free. stay out. stay alive."
or would you go for Dr. House's words of wisdom: "if i do this surgery, you might die. but don't you think being normal is worth the risk?"
