i changed the lay out of this blog. the previous lay out was too sad, full of negativity. i want to change that, i want to make it full of hope and joy :) the earlier posts here are too emo, too sad. i guess that when i was writing those things, i crestfallen. heartbroken. but here's what i think..
the reason why most of us consider ourselves as heartbroken is because by being in a sad state of mind, we feel that things can only get better. but we're wrong. things can always get worse, and they will. i believe that happiness is a state of mind. maybe the one we love doesn't love us back. what can we do? what we can do is keep moving on with our lives and know that the world will still turn no matter what. life is short. we have to live our lives to the fullest. sure, there will always be heartaches. we can't always pretend that they're not there when they really are. we have to face them with all might, cry for a while.. and then get on with our lives. the truth is that people will never meet our expectations, they will always disappoint us in a way. the best thing we can do is to not expect, and to just hope. as for me, my heart is not yearning for anyone in particular right now. and i'm happy. i think that's because, i am just letting things be and just waiting. waiting. the best is yet to come. always remember that. you'll never know what the BEST is if you haven't encountered the WORST. for us hopeless romantics, we will always dream of what we think is ideal. we will dream of different scenarios, and different people. and that's just it.. DIFFERENT. our dreams will never be the same. all i can say is that if we keep dreaming of the same person in the same scenario, it's got to mean something :) i'm no expert, but i've been through a lot. i've been hurt by someone, and i've also hurt someone. that's the way it is for everyone. just remember that whenever you break someone's heart, whether intentionally or not, what it felt like when your heart was broken. i remember being all giddy and flippy over someone i barely knew. and when i remember how a simple "hi!" made me smile, i become all giddy and flippy all over again. i guess what matters the most is not the person, but how this person makes you feel. and for those who aren't being treated right by their special someone, i have something to say to you. i know that numerous people have told you this numerous times, but i will still say it to you. if they're not treating you right now, they never will. probably, they'll change for a while, but they will surely return to their old habits. they will never change, unless you do. show them that if they don't treat you right, you can easily leave them not only because you don't need people like them in your life, but BECAUSE YOU CAN :) trust me, this i know for a fact. but i think that this is the most important advice i can give you. WHEN YOU TELL SOMEONE THAT YOU'LL WAIT FOR THEM, WAIT FOR THAT PERSON AND THAT PERSON ONLY. and when you decide that you no longer want to wait, please let them know. they'll get hurt, but they'll get over it. based on experience, nothing is more painful than expecting a warm welcome and getting a cold shoulder instead :(
"there are 2 worlds. the one we live in and the one we dream about. the challenge is not to choose between these worlds, but to make them meet."
- i hope that somehow, i have inspired or helped you. all i wanna say is more power to us hopeless romantics :)
