Some pearls of wisdom on relationships...

That found their way into my inbox...

1. I love you not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you.

2. No man or woman is worth your tears, and the one who is, won't make you cry.

3. Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.

4. A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.

5. The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them knowing you can't have them.

6. Never frown, even when you are sad, because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.

7. To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.

8. Don't waste your time on a man/woman, who isn't willing to waste their time on you.

9. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful.

10. Don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened.

11. There's always going to be people that hurt you so what you have to do is keep on trusting and just be more careful about who you trust next time around.

12. Make yourself a better person and know who you are before you try and know someone else and expect them to know you.

13. Don't try so hard, the best things come when you least expect them to.

As usual, NuPwrSoul.. GOOD stuff!

Since I'm in an unusually "chatty" mood, I'll add a few comments to these words of wisdom (sho' nuf!) that you posted..


1. I love you not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you.
--> isn't this a little.. SELFISH? smile


2. No man or woman is worth your tears, and the one who is, won't make you cry.
--> for DAMN sure.


3. Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
--> AGAIN, on point.


4. A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.
--> nice; true; a bit.. "mushy"


5. The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them knowing you can't have them.
--> this 1 went OVER MY HEAD. an ELABORATION, please?


6. Never frown, even when you are sad, because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.
--> hm. before I lived in France (& thus had this particular habit re-inforced) I was not really 1 to be smiling "all the time".. I smile when.. I have a real reason to.. I might be more impressed with someone who would "fall in love with me" while I had a frown on my face!


7. To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.
--> hm.. I'm not sure about this 1 either.. I love being someone's "favorite".. but "the world"??? that's.. "pressure", n'est-ce pas?


8. Don't waste your time on a man/woman, who isn't willing to waste their time on you.
--> I like this 1, at least as far as I understand what it intends..!


9. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful.
--> this 1 has GOT to be the TRUEST of all these!
smile


10. Don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened.
--> OR: smile because it happened, you got over it & TOTALLY ERASED the "experience" itself from your mind..


11. There's always going to be people that hurt you so what you have to do is keep on trusting and just be more careful about who you trust next time around.
--> well said, & VERY true


12. Make yourself a better person and know who you are before you try and know someone else and expect them to know you.
--> ABSOLUTELY. COMPLETELY. TOTALLY.


13. Don't try so hard, the best things come when you least expect them to.
--> yes, yes.. this is how is usually happens...!

I'll see you tonight..
