Bitter Virgin

When I am really scared I can’t say a word. And so I give an inaudible scream.

But miracles are things that can disappear instantly.

Tell him I said to become a good man. Cry a lot. Worry a lot. Become a man worthy enough to make me envious. Yes, even if your love is one that is not returned.

The O.C.

The sooner you realize things will never be the same again, the sooner you can move on.
There is nothing scarier than getting someting you want because then, you have something to lose.
She can't fall if you aren't there to catch her.
But I guess life's not really like that... You can't get caught up in wishing for something that's not gonna happen. You have to hold on to the next best thing.
I can’t change where I am from, but I can change where I am going.

Material Queen

I know, you guys must hate a person like me. But I don't care. Because what kind of life you want, is your own choice. Just like every woman would have to decide: Love or Bread. When you can only choose from the two of them, I only want to choose a better life. The reason is really simple. a life without love, is only living ordinarily. But a life without bread is one can't live on.

In this world, nothing can be perfect. That's a miracle, which I don't believe in. 

Because I love you is the cheapest gift on earth. No ID Card can prove it. No warranty. You can't preserve it. It can only decline in value. Love is just a scent. It will eventually be wiped out. But a jewel can last forever. 

Vital Signs

Water Bound

 Here's to many more firsts and many more great memories.
 For the first time in his existence, he knew he was drowning and he wasn't thinking about survival.
 He felt safe with her. He'd never been safe with another human being, not since he'd been taken as a child from his home. He'd never been able to trust. He could never give that last small piece - all that was left of his humanity - into someone else's keeping. And now there was Rikki. She let him be whatever he had to be to survive. She didn't ask anything of him. There was no hidden motive. No agenda. Just acceptance. She was different - imperfect, or so she thought - and she knew what it was like to fight to carve out a space for herself. She was willing for him to do that.
 I know what it's like to battle everyday  of my life, just for acceptance, just to survive. And may be that was love. Being so vulnerable and allowing someone else in so far they could hurt you, but they also give you everything.
 If you allowed yourself to hear or feel amusement, you would hear and feel pain.

Flipped

The silence connected us in a way words never could.

A Summer To Remember

     And yet day and night meet fleetingly at twilight and dawn," he said, lowering his voice again and narrowing his eyes and moving his head a quarter of an inch closer to hers. "And their merging sometimes affords the beholder the most enchanted moments of all the twenty four hours. A sunrise or sunset can be ablaze with brilliance and arouse all the passion, all the yearning, in the soul of the beholder."
     "Every...woman," the old lady said, "loves a ...rogue."
      But it was possible to teach what one could not practice.
      This time her heart would not break, even though it would hurt and hurt for a long time to come. Perhaps for the rest of her life. But it would not break. She had the strength to go on alone.
     "I am free, you see," she said, "to love or to withhold love. Love and dependence need no longer be the same thing to me. I am free to love. That is why I love you, and it is the way I love you."
     "The people we love are usually stronger than we give them credit for. It is the nature of love, perhaps, to want to shoulder all the pain rather than see the loved one suffer. But sometimes pain is better than emptiness. I have been so empty Kit. All my life. So full of emptiness. That is strange paradox is it not -  full of emptiness?"
     "But I was a dreamer, you see, not a weakling."
     "I have always been a spectator of life, you know, never a participant. Never. But now I am. Today I am, and I an awed and deliriously happy. This is the adventure I asked for, the adventure I am having I will be forever grateful to you.
