Cost of Love

They say, 'Love doesn't cost a thing,'

But I disagree because falling in love with the wrong person could cos you everything.

For those of you who are been in relationship where,

When you finally walked away, you were physically, mentally, and emotionally exhausted; to the point where you felt like you were literally starting your life all over again, you know exactly what I mean.

For those of you who haven't experienced this feeling, when you're out there deciding who you will and who you won't give your time and ultimately your love to, just remember, your love isn't free.

If you decide wrong, it could cost you everything

Soul Mate

A soul mate is a, well it’s like a best friend, but more. 

It’s the one person in the whole world that knows you better than you know yourself. .

It’s someone who makes you a better person. 

Well, actually, they don’t make you a better person. 

You do that yourself, because they inspire you. 

A soul mate is someone who you carry with you forever. 

It is the one person who knew you but yet, still accepted you & believed in you, before anyone else did, or when no one else would. 

And no matter what happens, you’ll always love them.

Hard but worth it

Love Yourself

Kid, you’ve got to love yourself. 

You’ve got wake up at four in the morning, brew black coffee, and stare at the birds drowning in the darkness of the dawn. 

You’ve got to sit next to the man at the train station who’s reading your favorite book and start a conversation. 

You’ve got to come home after a bad day and burn your skin from a shower. 

Then you’ve got to wash all your sheets until they smell of lemon detergent you bought for four dollars at the local grocery store. 

You’ve got to stop taking everything so goddam personally. 

You are not the moon kissing the black sky. 

You’ve got to compliment someones crooked brows at an art fair and tell them that their eyes remind you of green swimming pools in mid July. 

You’ve got to stop letting yourself get upset about things that won’t matter in two years.

Sleep in on Saturday mornings and wake yourself up early on Sunday. 

You’ve got to stop worrying about what you’re going to tell him when he finds out. 

You’ve got to stop over thinking why he stopped caring about you over six months ago.

You’ve got to stop asking everyone for their opinions. 

Fuck it. 

Love yourself, kiddo. 

You’ve got to love yourself.

Sensitive People

Sensitive people are the most genuine and honest people you will ever meet.


There is nothing they won't tell you about themselves if they trust your kindness


However, the moment you betray them, reject them or devalue them,


They become the worst type of person.


Unfortunately, they end up hurting themselves in the long run


They don't want to hurt other people


It against their very nature.


They want to make amends and undo the wrong they did.


Their life is a wave of highs and lows.


They live with guilt and constant pain over unresolved situations and misunderstandings.


They are tortured souls that are not able to live with hatred or being hated


This type of person needs the most love anyone can give them because their soul has been constantly bruised by others


However, despite the tragedy of what they have to go through in life, they remain the most compassionate people worth knowing.


And the ones that often become activists for the broken - hearted, forgotten and the misunderstood

P/S: Well, this explain a lot about me.

Life Lesson

Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, 

To serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson, or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to become. 

You never know who these people may be (possibly your roommate, neighbor, co-worker longest friend, lover, or even a complete stranger),

But when you lock eyes with them, you know at that very moment that they will affect your life in some profound way

Learn to Suffer

You have learned to suffer silently.


The words ‘I’m fine’ tumble from your mouth sounding more like ‘I’m sorry’ 

And the smile on your face says that you’re trying to convince everyone else that you’re okay but your heart and mind beg to differ.


You try to make happiness out of pain, if not for yourself then for the ones who come across you and it doesn’t help that no one has ever told you that it’s okay to hurt; 

No one has ever told you that it’s okay to talk about the darkness in your head; no one has ever told you that it’s okay to make room for yourself, 

So you go on being quiet because that’s what’s always made sense but let me be the first to tell you that you matter.


I know that sometimes your heart feels less like an organ and more like an reckless beast deserving of a cage stronger than your ribs but I’m telling you, you matter.


You were not made to destroy yourself for others.”

—Maxwell Diawuoh, Once A Day

Stay true, Be yourself

There’s a point in your life when you know who stays forever, and who’s just around for a while. 

People change, but so do you. 

Sometimes for the best, and sometimes for the worst. 

Bad things happen to everyone, you’re not in it alone. 

People lie, and some people just don’t care how you feel. 

Your heart beats, no matter how much pain you’re in. 

Everything will be okay eventually. 

There are always people in your life that just make your day, no matter the miles. 

I know about distance, I’ve been dealing with it all my life, don’t tell me it’s easy, because it’s not. 

But it’s worth it. I’d rather keep in touch with the people I love, than just drop it and forget about it. 

You don’t forget the ones you love. 

It doesn’t work like that.

Regret

It’s one of the hardest choices in life to decide whether or not to continue fighting. 

Walk away or try harder, leave or stay. 

But in the end the things you didn’t do will hurt more than the ones you regret doing. 

It’ll be the what ifs that will always take your breath away when you have a spare minute to think, 

And you’ll wonder “what could’ve happened if I’d taken the chance?” 

It’ll be the thought that drives you insane. 

So start. 

Start now. 

Take that chance. 

Believe in yourself. 

You can do this.”
