Four people you will meet in life

Life is the process of finding love, every person will need to find four people in their life.

First person is yourself. Second person is the one you love most. Third person is the one who love you most. And the fourth, is the one you spend the rest of your life with.

In life, firstly you will meet with the one you love most, and learn how love feels. Because you know how love feels, so you can find the person who love you most.

When you have experienced the feeling of loving others and being loved, you will then know what it is you need most.

Then you will find the person who is most suitable for you, to be able to spend the rest of your life with.

Sadly, in real life, these three people are usually not the same person. The one you love most doesn't love you; the one who love you most is never the one you love most; and the one you spend your life with is never the one you love most or the one who love you most.

He is just the person who happens to be at the right place at the right time. Which person are you in other people's life?

No person will purposely have a change of heart. At the point in time when he loves you, he really loves you. But when he doesn't love you anymore, he really doesn't love you anymore. When he loves you, he can pretend that he doesn't. Same goes, when he loves you no more, there no way he can pretend he loves you.

When a person doesn't love you and wants to leave you, you must ask yourself if you still love him. If you also don't love him anymore, don't ever not let him leave just to save your pride. If you still love him, you should wish him happiness, and hope that he will be with the one he loves most, not stop him from it. If you stop him from finding true happiness with the one he loves, it shows you already don't love him. And if you don't love him, what rights do you have to blame him for a change of heart?

Love is not possessive. If you like the moon, you can just take it down and put it in your basin, but the moonlight still shines upon you. In other words, when you love a person, you can use another method of possessing the person. Let him become a permanent memory in you life.

If you really love a person, you must love him for what he is. Love him for his good points, and the bad. You can wish for him to become like what you like him to be just because you love him.

If he can change to become what you like him to be, you don't love him anymore.

When you really love a person, you cannot find reason why you love him. You only know that no matter when and where, good mood or bad mood, you will wish to have this person be with you.

Real love is when two people can go through the toughest problems without asking for promises or listing criteria.

In a relationship, you have to put in effort and give in at times, not always be on the receiving end. Being away from each other is a type of test. If the relationship isn't strong, then you can only admit defeat. Real love will never become hate.

When two people are in love, They love to ask each other to swear, to make promises. Why do they ask each other to swear and promise?

Because they don't trust each other, they don't trust their lover. These swears and promises are useless. "'Till the sky falls, till the ocean dry, my love for you will never change!" We all know that the sky will never fall, the ocean will never dry. Even if it happens, are we still alive by then?

Be careful when making promises, don't make promises that you cannot keep. Swear by things that can never happen, because it can never happen, so no harm just saying it casually. Remember, Swearing by things that can never happen are the most touching!

In a relationship, what you say is one thing, but what you do is another. The one saying doesn't believe. The one listening, also doesn't believe.

Which person have you found so far? In the world so big, which person have you found? And who has found you?

Love is like standing on wet cement;
the longer you stay, the harder it is to leave.
And you can never go without leaving your prints behind.

I will never be free from your embrace

im still in the office beating another deadline for tomorrow. this time it's not a programming job but a documentation job! this is one of the things i hate about being a programmer... having to document all the stuff you put into the system just when you thought everything is done. i could not neglect it though because the client is expecting it next week. our boss is scheduled to leave on friday and he's supposed to bring along what we have finished so that means we need to work extra fast to make it to tomorrow's deadline.

my head is really aching. i can hardly think. ive been doing this documentation thing for the past few days. look... it's not just the ordinary documentation of java codes but it's a system documentation including the sequence diagram of the actions ive done for the modules. whew!

anyways, HH wont be picking me up because he had to go to church tonight. that means i have to go home alone and commute... sad =( . btw, my uncle and aunt from australia came home saturday last week. we were all surprised with their arrival because they never told anyone that they were coming home. they brought home some angus beef. so the past days weve been eating steak for dinner. hehehe. they went home because they will be attending the Sinulog Festival in cebu. My mom is coming along with them to cebu. Too bad i had used my vacation leaves earlier so i wont be able to join them. =( There goes my cebu vacation dream! On the lighter side, i wont be hearing moms nags for 2 weeks. hehehe.

i watched LOTR last sunday. It was the best film of the trilogy. i want to watch it again sometime this week when my deadlines have passed. Legolas is still as cute as ever. Now i noticed Aragorn is also goodlooking. im also encouraged to read the book. the problem is, how can i find all the books not only the trilogy?! Another great job of Peter Jackson.

anyways, i better go home before i collapse from my seat.
