None. No one.. Nothing..

Not even a chocolate.
Will a chocolate answer the phone at 3 AM? Of course not. Only a friend can listen..
Only a friend can understand.

And no matter how you crave for chocolates in times of depression, a real friend is still the sweetest sugar-coated thing ever existed that could cheer you up..

Thanks for being one.. No matter how much I love chocolates, I still love you more!

Everyday, God fills our lives with so much goodness. All we need to do is open our eyes and give thanks for each of them.

593. "love is unexplainable, you will never know how risky it is. but what are the odds of taking a risk in a relationship anyway? taking a great risk means having a great love story & a great love story doesn't necessarily have a happy ending but definitely has a heart touching journey.."

595. If people love you, be thankful that you're one of the few whom certain people chose to show their emotions to. Love does not demand to be loved back but it doesn't mean it exists to be taken for granted. If you can't return the love you're given, don't let it linger to grow alone. If you don't want it, refuse kindly. Love may not demand but it also deserves a heart that will better understand.

596. A nice thought: You've got to accept a little sorrow in life. You'll never really know what happiness is, unless you have something to compare it to..

597. Life has great options,you don't always have to pick what seems best...sometimes,the best & the perfect aren't always what makes you happy...you may have chosen what seems to be a wrong decisi0n or caught in a not so good situation but at times,it is through them that our lives become better.

598. Once there was a composer who usually does & saves his composition on a laptop 1 day,a friend came & ask to use the laptop, unfortunately his friend broke down the unit felt sorry for all his compositions might be lost, but he said boastfully, "don't worry, I've got back-ups" he tried to open his back-up files, but an error occurred "the disk is n0t formatted,formatting will lost all saved data, format anyway?" moral: "back-ups doesn't always work the same way, like in a relationship, if you really love someone,love only her without reservation for she's vulnerable. Care for her, value her 'coz when she's gone, you might lost her forever & any back-ups you have can't replace her worth in any sense."

599. Some people are sweet at first, always has time for you at first, serious at first, but why do people change after you love them so much? Maybe all romantic moment only happens at first and never last.. :(

600. When a song ends, you could just repeat it everytime you like. When the movie ends, you can just wait after the trailers to start it again. When the rain ends, sure it'll come back soon but when your relationship ended with the one you loved, you don't even know if you can rewind it, repeat it or hope for it to come back. There's nothing in this world that is stronger than love..
