The Art of Despair
Sent as an accidental text message, this quote, sent by a friend made me realize so many things in life. Sometimes being crushed and burned isn’t as bad as we thought.
“It is an infinite merit to be able to despair.”

LET GO. LET GOD.
Sometimes you have to let go of someone to see if there was anything worth holding on to.
Love, Like Pregnancy...
Love is a process. It doesn’t happen overnight - that’s not called love, that’s called attraction. You have to somehow get your mind straight, because when the heart overtakes the mind - it can somehow be polluted by sentimental thoughts and it will evoke emotions that aren’t supposed to be there. The best thing to do is to always take a moment to step out of the love box...
The Realist Vs. The Hopeless Romantic
Realist: : concern for fact or reality and rejection of the impractical and visionary (www.m-w.com)
Hopeless Romantic: This person is in love with love.They believe in fairy tales and love.They’re not to be confused as stalkers or creepy because that’s not what a hopeless romantic is. All hopeless romantics are idealists,the sentimental dreamers,the imaginative and the fanciful when...

Don’t let other people string you around their finger because you are nobody’s puppet. Don’t enslave yourself to a heart that doesn’t know how to reciprocate a sincere love. Always have self-respect and everyone else...
