Love. Live Life. Proceed. Progess.

Quote reblogged from Aloha! Pehea `oe?

I’ve learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow. I’ve learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights. I’ve learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you’ll miss them when they’re gone from your life. I’ve learned that making a “living” is not the same thing as making a “life.” I’ve learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I’ve learned that you shouldn’t go through life with a catcher’s mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back. I’ve learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I’ve learned that even when I have pains, I don’t have to be one. I’ve learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back. I’ve learned that I still have a lot to learn. I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

Brighten Up the World With Your Eyes

I think you’re so interesting…with the way you speak and how you see the world. With your big ideas, it seems as though you’re creating your masterplan to fall in love. I just stare when you ramble on about nothing, but it seems like it’s everything. I see the way you interact with people I would pass, and you use your hands to create words and pictures so that understanding you would be like finding the holy grail. I have so much respect for you when your patience is written on your face. You never touch, but you only see because touching would break it all. And when I read what you write, i feel like i’m finding a safe place where you’ve kept all your secrets all along. You’re delicate eyes say everything that you feel, and with just one blink it’s on to the next motion. You hold on to tangible items so tight as if they will slip away in your arms. There’s the way you laugh that tells me that it reaches your heart before your mind. You fool everyone thinking you’ve been in love because you seem as though you’ve known the secret of the universe. But when i look into the deepest depths of your eyes, I too, know the secret of the universe.

writing is fun.
