Giving someone all your love is never an assurance
that they’ll love you back!
Don’t expect love in return, just wait for it
to grow in their heart.
But if it doesn’t, be content it grew in yours.

Love comes
To those who still hope
although they’ve been disappointed;
To those who still believe
although they’ve been betrayed;
To those who still need to love
although they’ve been hurt before.

It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone,
an hour to like someone, and a day to love
someone--but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

Don’t go for looks, they can deceive;
Don’t go for wealth, even that fades away.
Go for someone who makes you smile,
Because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.

To love someone is
to let those we love be just themselves,
and not twist them with our own image.
Otherwise, we love only the reflection of ourselves
we find in them.
