The greater the love, the greater the tragedy when it's over. Those two elements always go together.
Nights in Rodanthe by Nicholas Sparks | Book Review
The greater the love, the greater the tragedy when it's over. Those two elements always go together.
Love is so unpredictable. Sometimes you'll know a man for years and then one day, boom! Suddenly you see him in a different way. And other times, it's that first date, that first moment. That's what makes it so great.
TJ: You were right. I did need to be on my own. But some of the things you wanted me to experience already passed me by, and I can't go back. I know what I want and it's you, Anna. I love you, and I miss you so much. Anna: I don't fit in your world. TJ: Neither do I. So let's make our own. We've done it before.
Imagine life is a game in which you are juggling five balls. The balls are called work, family, health, friends, and integrity. And you're keeping all of them in the air. But one day you finally come to understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. The other four balls--family, health, friends, integrity--are made of glass. If you drop one of these, it will be irrevocably scuffed, nicked, perhaps even shattered. And once you truly understand the lesson of the five balls, you will have the beginnings of balance in your life.
There are so many words bottled up inside They scream out to be released You’ve cast a spell over me Been blinded for long, but can now see You’re the only thing that matters in my life All that I’ve done is for you The biggest piece, the biggest part The one person who controls my heart If I could kiss away your pain, I would If I could hold you every night, I would If I could erase every mistake, every other face I wouldn’t change a thing Because all those things led me to this place And to you Because I … I could never break your heart I wouldn’t know where to start All I know to be true Is the only breaking will be done by you If I could make you smile all day, I would If I could be the person you want, I would If I could erase every mistake, every other face I wouldn’t change a thing Because all those things led me to this place And to you Because I … I could never break your heart I wouldn’t know where to start All I know to be true Is the only breaking will be done by you
If you and I don't make it, I like knowing there's a good guy there who knows the real Beth - the Beth I love - who will love you better than I can."
No such thing as replays or penalty points in real life, no matter how valid and real the fouls might be.
Do you know how hard it is to say nothing? When every atom of you strains to do the opposite? I had practiced not saying anything the whole way from the airport, and it was still nearly killing me.
Love isn't something you have to deserve.
Some girls will love you for your intelligence, your spirit, or your smile. Some girls will fall all over themselves if you even make the smallest effort to understand them. Some girls don't care how you act as long as you drive a nice car(And some boys deserve those kind of girls. i'm just sayin'.) Some girls will require a lot more from you than most guys are willing to give. This is the girl you'll need a lot of patience for, because she will lead you down blind paths and up steep hills. The challenge will be staying true to who you are while pursuing this person. She'll wring you out, simultaneously repel and attract you, and question your every intention. She'll be the biggest pain in the asphalt you've ever had. She'll need you to understand what she won't tell you, believe in her when she extends no faith in you, and not give in to her when she wants to roll over you. She'll expect that you'll always be there, even when she avoids you. She'll want lots of independence but want you to need her desperately. She'll expect you to be smart but treat her like she's smarter than you. Hopefully, you'll believe she's worth it in the end.
