Once we feel love, we find no way to control its selfish desires even if it means hurting the one closest person to you.  There are no guarantees when it comes to love. Love is like that, we don't control it, we can only deny or accept it when it's there and the only way we can measure love  is by looking deep down inside our hearts, then we'll know how much and for how long.

Most of us have the ideal concept of what a perfect relationship is and when we dive towards this relationship, we get frustrated because our expectations may never be met. But true love doesn't expect anything in return. If we only try to be open-minded and understand that we give love not to gain favor but it is something we share to someone special because giving it makes us happy.

It is easy to say "I love you" or "I need you" and other flowery words that will linger to the very core of our hearts, the thing is, can we take the responsibility and commitment for our promises? Why do people say I love you but in reality they don't really understand what is love and how to love.

It is very painful to learn that someone you really love have someone else besides you! They will make you fall in love completely and devotedly but later on they will leave you hangin' and in despair, these are the people who never care at all. I pity those kind of people, they have a serious problem with themselves. All of us at one time in our lives have been hurt by those whom we have loved and trusted, they leave us painfully shattered into pieces, but only when we recognize why love fades away, can we truly understand the reason why we get hurt.

There are times in our lives that we must experience to live in pain, a time when it's hard to forget and it hurts to remember. There is nothing wrong in holding on to the memories of the person we once loved.  They are all part of us. But engaging in a relationship and at the same time living in the past is unfair. Yesterday must never keep us from today's reality. We can never forget those whom we have loved.
Those people that gave us something to feel for and brings us the brilliance within ourselves.  People who made our lives meaningful and special inside and out. A life worth living for. But only when we learn to accept the reasons why they have gone, can we truly put the past where it belongs. Besides,  we did our part, we gave them our best, if they refused it, it is their loss not ours.

You're not the only one to feel disappointed by love. It happens to everyone--all of us--beautiful or not, rich or poor, wise or naive. We all deserve someone, and mysteriously that  certain someone makes him or herself known to us--not always when we need them most but for sure they will be there. Change is the one constant thing in life--there will be a time for love and a time for emptiness. No one is exempted from being left behind, still, no one has to be left behind forever. There's always room for love in your life with an extra bed for the unexpected guest, sure as love comes from the most unexpected places where you are the one to figure out where the heck in the universe are these located! Love comes...love goes, like a journey... Love is like that, full of mystery, full of mischief, that's why when love takes over, miracles can happen especially if  True love prevails...
