A relationship, a parking spot.
A relationship? A parking spot? You may question, “What does that mean?” Well, a relationship is like a parking spot. “How is that relevant?”, you may question once more. As common our senses are, the closer the parking spot to the place you want to go to is, the better it is and everyone wants that spot. They’re the ‘great catch.’ But not everyone has...

Your presence.
You are always my first thought in the awakening morning, the one that’s always racing through my mind in the afternoons or evenings, and the last before I shut my eyes. I am unable to get you off my mind; biggest to littlest to silliest to loveliest things remind me of you. You make me happy beyond alleviation, I thank the Heavens for letting us intertwine our fingers. My soul has been...

I like someone.
As I contemplated about my feelings, I have finally came to the conclusion that I like someone. It’s been quite some time since I’ve felt such happy feelings; I am finally reminded of what it feels like to have that bubbly feeling rushing through the veins of your heart. This someone is making me smile at the littlest things, at our silly conversations, and the things we do together. I...

Be yourself.
Don’t ever apologize for being yourself. Say something because you want to, not because you feel obliged. Laugh because you feel happy, not because everyone else is laughing. Love someone because your heart is singing melodies when you see them, not because they told you they love you. Don’t pretend to be someone you’re not, and if someone criticizes you for being yourself, why...

Deaf.
Yesterday I had a conversation with a deaf person. It was a wonderful experience and opportunity for me. I was happy that I could make him laugh or smile, but I wish he could be able to laugh with me; to be able to hear instead of having someone else use a special sign language to represent laughter. In the end, what touched my heart was when he told me, “just making you laugh, that makes me...

What is love?
I suppose this statement has been questioned by humans since days unspoken. Knowing that in order to keep our sanity, one must be able to love and receive love, a blessing or punishment of some sort. People will die or even kill for this intangible feeling that is not fully understood by any human being. Already knowing these things, I began to delve deeper, remembering when asking someone...

Loneliness.
Loneliness is the state in which one is in solitary isolation. While the stigma around the word “alone” is seemingly negative, it is actually a necessity for human development and sanity. I believe that, we all need our time away from others in order to catch up with ourselves. However, the problem is that humans in their own lonesome are forced to be in isolation away from contact on...

A cup of coffee.
You are like a cup of coffee. You warm my insides and you keep me up at night. I need you when I feel weak and no matter what style you come in, you remain quality. You make me feel overall, better. When I’m chilly, all I need is to hold you in my hands, and I’ll warm up. I fear that if I indulge you in for too long, I will soon want more and more. But that’s alright, it’s...

Discover the power of loving yourself.
Sometimes it’s hard to trust life with all its sudden twists, turns, and storms. When something unexpected or painful happens, when we become blocked or frustrated, when life takes a different course than we hoped it would, it’s easy to stop trusting the flow of our lives. I didn’t ask for this. It’s not fair. I don’t want this, we think to ourselves. This road...

Do something nice for someone today.
Why wait for Christmas? Why wait for a special occasion? Do something nice for someone today. Give a gift, even when it isn’t someone’s birthday. Give a gift of love and joy. You never know how much happiness you could bring upon someone by doing the littlest things, or maybe even the biggest. Feeling down? Frustrated? Instead of depriving yourself when you already feel bad...
Complimenting someone.
When I compliment someone, I don’t do it because I expect to receive a compliment from them. I do it because I sincerely mean it. No, I’m not fishing for comments. No, I’m not waiting for you to say you like my hair. No, I don’t have to hear, “Thanks, I love your shoes too!” If you return the verbal sunshine, thank you in advance, but the best forms of flattery are the ones that are coming from...
Farewell.
By titling this, I am greeting my followers with a goodbye. I have decided that I am leaving, but I am not quitting. At this moment, 255 people do not want me to leave the community of Tumblr, and I find that a gradual amount. 255 unknown souls I am aware of with the possibility of carrying infinite beauty within their hearts. Thus, I am thankful there are people who genuinely care about my...

Hold hands.
I’d like to hold hands with someone. I miss the feeling of interlocking your fingers with that special someone, and just walking around with a genuine smile knowing that their yours. I want to stride down the streets, malls, and amusement parks with laughter and happiness written all over our faces. The feeling of your hands grasped together just seems so innocent and sweet.

We're all looking for that special someone.
We’re looking for that one person who makes you feel like you’re on top of the world. It’s that one person who puts a genuine smile on your face even when you feel like crumbling into bits of pieces. Are there chances that this person is already your best friend? How about just an acquaintance? Let’s leave these questions for the hands of time. Most of us need this...

You are beautiful.
Ladies, you are beautiful. Please do not let anyone else tell you otherwise. Does it matter if you don’t wear makeup? Does it matter if you do? Don’t let the society and its norms dictate how you should normally look like. The looks you have and offer to the world is more than anyone could ever ask for. You’re unlike any other, you are special in your own way. Any...

You deserved to be loved.
You deserve to be loved — unconditionally and faithfully loved. The tears you cry should be from the bouts of uncontrollable laughter or the little romantical things he does for you; you deserve only those tears. You should always be in the front seat right next to him, never tossed in the back like an unwanted textbook or gum wrapper; you deserve to be his equal. His touch should be electrifying...
Space.
Everyone needs their certain amount of space. Whether it’s because of how their feeling, or if they just don’t want to talk to anyone. Don’t suffocate someone whose already suffocated enough. All they want is their space, some time to collect all their thoughts. I mean, yeah, you might be worried because you care, but it’s not like they’ll do anything stupid....
Assumptions.
Assumptions lead you nowhere. When people don’t have full knowledge of what they are talking about, but continue to as if they do, it really makes me wonder what causes them to think they accommodate the right to speak so blindly.

Clear the path to your heart.
We need to experience the little angers as well as the big hurts, the painful wounds that life sometimes brings. To insist that we will only feel pleasant emotions means we’re blocking the pathway to the heart. We’re ignoring all the other gurgling emotions that need to be felt. — All our emotions are important; all need to be recognized. The energy of each needs to be...
No one has the same mindset.
We all think differently. Sure, we have things in common. Sure, we can relate to one another. But, no one will ever have the same mindset as yours. We all have a mind of our own, we all experience different things with different individuals. It’s the same with our hearts; we all have hearts, we all have feelings, but we will never experience the same thing. It’s all...

Train.
She was 6; she wanted to run away. She got on a train, and sat next to a stranger about the same age as she was. This train took them far away, there was no stop. They knew exactly where they wanted to go, far away from where they once stood. — She fell asleep looking out the snowy night with no stars out; just a moon trying to glimpser it’s aglow. He looked at her, and lent his shoulder. ...

One piece of love advice.
If I could give everyone one piece of love advice, it would be once you find the one you’ve spent your whole lifetime searching for, don’t give them up without a fight. Never let them just walk right out of your life. Whatever you do, don’t ever let them go. Hold onto them with all that you’ve got, because you have no guarantee that they’ll be back. Don’t just watch them leave. It could be the...

Here's a turn off, IV.
Honestly, I don’t like people who try too hard with their appearance. For an example: Hype beast. I have nothing against them, but I have no interest or appeal for them. I don’t like how they all dress completely the same; with their snap backs, varsity jackets, and obey shirts. They all look like twins to me; I don’t want to date someone unoriginal. And yes, I must admit, some...

Open your heart.
An open heart feels all it needs to feel. Cry when it hurts. At the end of your tears, you will see more clearly. Tears clear our eyes and our heart. Cry whenever you need to. Laugh often, as often as you can. Laugh with friends, laugh out loud. The discoveries, the growth, the insights, the closeness, the sharing, the learning doesn’t have to be such serious, somber events. Cry a lot. Laugh...

Team love.
Being in love takes two people. It’s not just the commitment, the loyalty, and the communication between the two individuals — it works like a team. When one person is down, the other is supposed to be there to pick the other up. Once you tell the other person that you’re officially theirs, you can’t inch your way out of it. Being a boyfriend or a girlfriend means having to sacrifice...
Beware of gossip.
Gossip is a seductive pastime that can be harmful to others, harmful to ourselves. Some gossip is innocent. We chatter about the experiences of others lightly, joyfully, in a way that doesn’t hurt. Other gossip isn’t innocent. It’s rooted in anger, jealousy, betrayal, and sometimes hatred. We feel deprived and cheated—hurt—so we want to hurt another. Would you stand and throw darts at someone?...

Love is for everyone.
No one should ever have to think twice when it comes to loving another. Love is love. Love is beautiful, and if love is beautiful, everyone is beautiful. Love should be for everyone—whether they be bisexual, homosexual, straight or set with an individualistic mentality. I believe that no breathing life should be forsaken in this time of loss and being lost. May minds open and may we be...

Thought.
Those people who go out of their way just to make somebody’s day or just to have them simply smile, who put their problems aside to tend to others’ problems, who try their best to be in an upbeat or positive mood in hopes that it’ll be contagious, who’s outlook on life is still positive after what they’ve been through, who are just all around inspiring people, thank you for existing.

Be honest with yourself.
What are you feeling deep down inside? Under the anger, under the rage, under the numb I don’t care, it doesn’t matter. Are you really scared? Hurt? Abandoned? Go more deeply into yourself and your emotions than you have ever gone before. Be more honest with yourself than you have ever been before. The way to joy, the way to the heart is tender, soft gentle, and honest. The way to the...

Sunset.
Sunsets signal the end of another day; a reminder of how day is ending. The beautiful light is going away, and the darkness of shadows begin to fall. The whisper of night is beginning, with the coldness of the breeze lurking and waiting. Watching the sun sink into the horizon, as my breath paints a puff of fog onto the misty glass, I think of how time has passed. Of how time has fled from my grasp...
Aim for what you want.
We want what we don’t have, while others want what we have. Sometimes we just got to learn how to be happy with the things that we do have and cherish them. If you work hard enough to achieve what you want, maybe you’ll get it. Don’t just sit there and envy. Stand up. Reach high. Aim for what you want.
Disappear.
How do people disappear so quickly? A moment you’re talking to them, a moment you’re getting to know them, a moment they’re no where to be seen, a moment you’re lost looking for them, a moment you realize they’re.. gone. I know I’m used to people walking in and out of my life, but it just disappoints me that people have to leave so quickly, so soon, so early.
One step at a time.
One step at a time. That’s all you can take, that’s all you have to take. Yes, you have visions you’ve created of where you want to go. But, you don’t get there in one leap. You get there one step at a time, that’s how you receive your guidance; that’s how you respond to the guidance you’ve received. Let your faith be strong. Your faith will keep you going through those moments in between steps....

"Will you go out with me?"
Call me old fashioned or whatever, but I’d rather have someone ask “Will you be my girlfriend?” I think it’s more sincere and heartfelt. I mean, asking someone to go out with you doesn’t necessarily mean you literally are and I don’t really have anything against it, but it just isn’t as sweet to me.
Your voice.
When I hear your voice through the phone, I get all bubbly. Hearing the sound of your voice whether you’re sick, tired, or normal is one of my greatest joys. I can’t help but smile even when you’re not talking; just knowing that you’re on the line makes me happy and comforted like as if you were besides me. The sound of your voice is soothing like the birds soaring the day...

You don't just automatically love someone.
You have to slowly learn to trust, then you start believing them. You want to be with them more to the point where you’re jealous of anyone who tries to be with that person, then it gets you mad but you get past it, you can’t be jealous anymore. You can’t because you have this undying confidence that this person will never leave you, they will never betray you, and that they would never pick...
All you have to do is be yourself.
Take me as I am. For who I am. I can’t take back all the mistakes I’ve made, the words I’ve said. I can’t choose what family I was born into or choose whether I’m rich or poor. I’ve met plenty of people that are desperate to change their whole image so people would start liking them or just so they would fit in with a certain group of people. You all need to realize that you aren’t lying to anyone...

Here's a turn off, I.
I can’t stand it when a guy calls me his ‘babe.’ It’s not cute, it’s disgusting. I’d rather be called something cheesy than disgusting. I find ‘babe’ rather gross. I have my own opinions and you have yours. Some people find ‘babe’ flattering, cute, whatever. I find ‘babe’ a turn off. If you ever call me babe, I will rudely...

Love yourself.
No matter what, love yourself. Love yourself, even if it feels like the world around you is irked with you, even if it feels like those you’ve counted on most have gone away, even if you wonder if everything and everyone has abandoned you. When it feels like the journey has stopped, the magic is gone, and you’ve been left sitting on the curb, love yourself. When you’re confused...
Forever ain't enough?
forever (adv.) - For everlasting time; eternally.
Forever is an awful long time. Forever was such a mesmerizing term back when I carried the mind of an innocent, naive child—back when I referred to almost half of my friends as my ‘bffs’. Fast forward to today, and I don’t even talk to any of them. Things have changed, people have changed, and people will always continue to change either for the...

I like talking to you.
You make me smile, you make me happy. I don’t know what’s so special about you, but I feel like I can be my complete self around you and you’d accept me for who I am. I can laugh uncontrollably and you wouldn’t mind. I can repeat the silliest things constantly and you wouldn’t become annoyed. I like talking to you.
Promises.
Don’t make promises you can’t keep. You’ll never know how much a person can depend on that one promise you made them. It could possibly even cost them their life, so don’t take it as a joke. Yeah, there goes the “Promises are meant to be broken” crap. Really? Promises are meant to be broken? If they’re meant to be broken, why did you even make the promise in the first place? Are you tossing it...
I talk to you because I want to talk to you.
I don’t talk to you because I’m bored. I talk to you because I want to talk to you. Even if I were bored, I still wouldn’t dependent myself off of someone to lessen my boredom. If I’ve ever wanted to talk to you, I either wanted to catch up with you, ask how you are, get to know you better, or maybe I just really enjoy talking to you. Simple as that.
What do you look in a guy?
I’m always being asked this; by far, this is the most common question I get from friends or people whom seek interest in me. I usually answer with: “someone committed, dedicated, has a sense of humor, and is no one but himself.” In all honesty, I don’t have anything in particular that I look in a guy. Why? In the end, I fall for their personality. I’ve fallen for guys...
Lying.
I think the worst thing you can ever do to a person is seal the truth from them. Why would anyone ever do that? Just because you want to protect them from being hurt, you need to realize that it hurts beyond more if you lie to them. No matter how painful the truth will be, at least they won’t have to find out in the future that you lied to them and lose all the trust they had in you....

I like smiling at strangers.
No, not the creepy way. I’m talking about just smiling at them to send off a happy and/or good vibe. Who knows what that person has been through? Who knows what they’re dealing with? What happens if they’re having a bad day? What if someone or something ruined their whole entire day and they’re losing hope? We don’t know. That is why I enjoy friendly smiling at...

What's the point in a relationship if there's only...
Simple answer, there’s no point. A relationship is where two are hand in hand and work together. Without ones significant effort, someone is bound to be doing all the work. Is that fair? Certainly not. Both should be obliged to make the same amount of efforts. What is a relationship without both of you cooperating with each other? It’s both of your jobs to keep each other happy.

Why be sad when you can be happy?
Don’t allow things or people ruin your day. If you smiled before, you can smile again. Think about the good moments before what happened occurred. There’s always tomorrow to look forward to. It is a new day, another chance to smile, and another chance to be happy. Don’t waste your time dwelling on your misfortunes.
