When you’re sad:

1. Write letters to the people you love. Don’t seal them; don’t send them. Instead, stick them between the pages of library books.

2. Eat raspberries off your fingertips.

3. Venture outside and observe natural life. Watch a honey bee suck the nectar from lavender plants. Watch a snail slowly make its way towards the shade of a tree. Watch a hummingbird innocently fly above your head. Realise how insignificant you are.

4. Smile at strangers; say hello. It will improve their day and your own.

5. Write lists. They can be about anything.

6. Read several pages of the dictionary. Learn new words. Write down the ones you wish to remember.

7. Never feel compelled to apologize when you don’t feel sorry. It’s okay that you’re honest. It’s okay that you have a different opinion from someone else.

8. Read books and watch movies from your childhood. A healthy dose of nostalgia is okay. Immerse yourself in your past innocence.

9. Walk to a park and get on a swing. Go as high as you can; feel limitless. The world is yours.

10. Eat if you’re hungry. Food is not the enemy. You are a human and need food to survive. You deserve to eat. Put those raspberries on your fingers and sprinkle sugar on your tongue. Taste the summer breeze and sweet aroma of jasmine flowers.

11. Don’t marinate in your sadness. You are not a steak. You are a person; you’re irreplaceable. Open yourself up to contentment. Bathe in the rivers of Glee. Go for hikes with Satisfaction. Sleep in a warm cocoon of blankets with Bliss. Let endless happiness overcome your hopeless sadness. You deserve to be happy. If life is a game and you are the referee, be biased for once and let happiness win.

I want you to know, there is a person in this world, who will wait for you forever, irrespective of where and when, somehow you know, there is such a person.

I have always dreamt of the...

... perfect guy magically appearing in front of me one day, only to take my hand as he gazes into my eyes to tell me he has fallen ridiculously and helplessly in love with me.

As for him, he would be undeniable the guy from my wildest dreams. A little taller than me, his face is well-defined. From his soft and inviting lips, clean chin to his sweet eyes that are sensuous and radiant like pure diamond which capture every nerves in my mind to his body, firmly built like a knight awaiting to rescue me. Every gesture of his, every word, and even the silence is to be remembered by me. He’d be something I couldn’t resist.

But then again… what are the chances of a fairytale knocking on my door, when I’m just your average, not so noticeable me? Perhaps I watch too much movies, hence the crazy imagination I’ve come to develop.

Does anyone else ever like…. partially dissociate? Like there’s a little part of you that is just not there but the rest of you is like “come back to the body, buddy, we have stuff to do”?

Note to self: it’s okay to find yourself thinking about someone late at night and smiling or crying or feeling everything or nothing as thoughts of that person overwhelm you. It’s okay to wonder, even if that person might not be thinking about you (anymore).

WHY RUSH?

Why are people trying to get a guy/girl?
Why are people rushing into getting a relationship?
I mean, what’s the point?
If you’re ready to be with someone, then you’re ready. You can’t force time and make things go faster. You can’t just like someone for a day and then immediately want to be with them the next. It doesn’t work like that. Be patient. Your time will come. Fuck those who pressure you into dating someone. Fuck those who judge you for being single. You’re not single because no one wants you - you’re single because you’re waiting for the right one. Don’t rush. It’s not going to get you anywhere in the end. 

If you are not nice, then you’re considered a bitch and a snob. 
But if you’re too nice, then you’re considered fake. I don’t get it. 

You know that feeling, when you truly just love and care for someone. To the point where no matter all the mistakes they’ve made or all the faults they’ve been through, you don’t care about any of those. You don’t look for faults, answers or mistakes. Instead, you fight those mistakes and you accept it from them. Accepting all their flaws and them as a person, knowing that no matter what happens, you’ll always look past it, loving them as of right now for simply who they are. 

Long distance relationships.

Don't know what got me tonight, but mind got me thinking about writing something regarding to LDR's, so here goes, a scope of what it's like to be in a long distance relationship.

You spend a whole lot of time alone. Not alone as in miserably lonely, but handling your day to day activities with the absence of your lover. there are times where you just wish that it was easier for them to be around you, to hold you when you’re cold, and having the luxury of falling asleep in their arms then waking up to see their blunt beauty in the morning. Trust becomes a huge factor in the success or failure of the relationship because all you really have is the unspoken promises of commitment and fidelity.
Before you decide to pursue a relationship with someone far away, there is a transparent contract that you sign, saying that you know the consequences and you fully accept what follows. When they can’t physically be there, you can’t blame them and say that they’re never around. Circumstances divide you two apart and it’s up to both of the individuals to work past that, not ignore it. You end up depending on technology to converse with your significant other. A simple text, phone call or webcam sessions start to mean so much more to you.
Then there are times where it becomes difficult because you want to hold them when they’re having a bad day, to show up at their front door steps and surprising them, or just going out on a lunch date from time to time. So you find alternative ways to show them how much you care. Any moment with them is sacred because it becomes something you to yearn for, so much that it aches. It’s most definitely not easy, but when you fall in love, everything is worth it. And every single time you look into their eyes, it’s like the first time all over again. You learn to be great on your own, but even better when they’re by your side. It’s where independence and dependency is in perfect harmony.
