Enya, heart, love, Only time, Where the roads go, Who knows

Who can say
where the road goes
where the day flows
only time
And who can say
if your love grows
as your heart chose
only time

Who can say
why your heart sighs
as your love flies
only time
And who can say
why your heart cries
when your love dies
only time

Who can say
when the roads meet
that love might be
in your heart
And who can say
when the day sleeps
if the night keeps
all your heart

Night keeps all your heart

Who can say
if your love grows
as your heart chose
only time
And who can say
where the road goes
where the day flows
only time

Who knows – only time
Who knows – only time

Only time, Richard Marx, Right Here Waiting, Song, Tears

I always found this song so beautiful and full of that thing many call love. I spend years waiting for someone to send me this. Maybe I’m just cheesy but today I want to remember this day forever. It was such and emotional day, no wonder so many tears flow free today. Only time, only time…

Tears are words from the heart that can’t be spoken ♥

I fall asleep and I wake up with all the same questions, dreams and prayers in my head. They must come true soon, right? They Will!

“I am always amazed that so many people are concerned with wanting to be what they are not; What is the point of making yourself look ridiculous?

You don’t always have to pretend to be strong,there is no need to prove all the time that everything is going well, you shouldn’t be concerned about what other people are thinking.

Cry if you need to, it’s good to cry out all your tears, because only then you will be able to smile again…”
― Paulo Coelho, Like the Flowing River

I Kiss a Frog and I like it! ♥

How many Frogs do we have to kiss?

Normally I would find a quote that I like and go in search for an image to pair. Today something different happen while I was searching for that picture. It’s something I do daily to post in my page, “Imagine Happy” on Facebook… Today I see this image and it just call to me, you know like, “oh wow how cute it is”. Hmmmm, so I said to myself lets find a quote for this image!

and so the search begin but what make this post now its all the things that start crossing through my mind while searching, reading and pondering in “Fairy Tales”, “Frogs”, “Dreams”, “Little girls” and suddenly the innocent search turns into a brainstorm of thoughts….

I did found a few funny and deep quotes, how about this one: “sometimes you have to kiss a few frogs to find a prince” or this one: “There’s nothing deeper than love. In fairy tales, the princesses kiss the frogs, and the frogs become princes. In real life,the princesses kiss princes, and the princes turn into frogs.” ― Paulo Coelho, By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept

But then a quote make me stop and ponder deeply on “Prince Charming, Frogs and Fairy Tales”. I’m a romantic by nature, always dreaming of that elusive thing called love. I have no idea what love is but I know what caring is, when you care for someone so much it hurts when they don’t care about you in the same way and I know how much it hurts to be far away from the one you care so deeply and passionately, the one you want to spend your days with. If that my friends is not what people call love then I have no idea what it is….

This is the quote: “This is what I know. Don’t settle for 40, 50, or even 80 percent. A relationship-it shouldn’t be too small or too tight or even a little scratchy. It shouldn’t take up space in your closet out of guilty conscience or convenience or a moment of desire. Do you hear me? It should be perfect for you. It should be lasting. Wait. wait for 100 percent.”
― Deb Caletti, The Secret Life of Prince Charming

and that’s the reason why we keep kissing Frogs, because we don’t settle for less of what we know we deserve. Many people settle for less and then spend their entire lives being sorry, staying inside marriages or relationships that are not making them happy. They choose to settle for that 40%, 50%, 60% instead of waiting for the 100%!! So you have all this people staying in relationships that don’t make them 100% happy and complete.

So this bring to mind the word “Courage”, how courageous are you? Would you stop kissing Frogs and settle for less or would you fuck the opinion of others and keep kissing Frogs until you find that 100%…….Again would you have the courage to remove yourself from a relationship that is only 50%, 60% 75% and go look for that elusive 100%?

Wow, this was long and I could keep writing maybe because it’s a subject that we see everyday around. Friends in love with someone that don’t love them back, married friends not happy but settling, friends still waiting after years for someone that may never come back, friends having platonic relationships with a married people but hey “it’s just friendship”, married friends staying because of kids or fear of not finding someone again……and the list go on and on but I wonder why, why they wait for that lost love, why they settle for less when clearly is not healthy for anyone involved. Its love that frightening? Should we settle for some part of what a relationship should be? Should we wait? Should we kiss frogs? Should we kiss Toads instead of Frogs? *grin* 😉

I’m divorced and let me tell you something, that took courage. Real courage to break free from that golden cage, to heal from emotional abuse, to face life again after so many years of being married, to enter the singlehood world, believe in love again and wish someone would care for me just as I care for him. To read novels and wonder if that kind of love exist at all but deep down wish it did and this wonderful guy one day find me, accept me, care for me. Someone not attach but free to love me, would move mountains to be with me and we complement and care for each other, have fun together, it’s good in bed, passionate, free-spirit, honest, kind, adventurous and have the courage to embrace life holding my hand until we are old, until we exchange the sex toys for potassium injections, testosterone pills, muscle cramps relaxer and who knows what more!….That’s being courageous indeed! ♥

The same author of that quote has many more, all of them great quotes from the same book. Here is a few more that got my eye!

“You’ve got to have someone who loves your body. Who doesn’t define you, but sees you. Who loves what he sees. Who you don’t have to struggle to be good enough for.”

“Those questions you have? Whether he’s the one, whether you feel about him the way you should, or whether the relationship is going okay? When you’re not sure whether you’re in love with someone or not, the answer is not.”

“We should not give away a moment to anyone who does not deserve it.”

“People are secretive when they have secrets.”

“Marriage is like a well-built porch. If one of the two posts leans too much, the porch collapses. So each must be strong enough to stand on its own.”

“At the root of every large struggle in life is the need to be honest about something that we do not feel we can be honest about. We lie to ourselves or other people because the truth might require action on our part, and action requires courage. We say we “don’t know” what is wrong, when we do know what is wrong; we just wish we didn’t.

Art lets us tell the truth, but even art can be something to hide behind.”

“But what I wanted back had never really been there. He was a temporary illusion, a mirage of water after walking in the desert. I had made him up. And he could have killed me. You’ve got to stop the ride sometimes. Stop it and get off.”

“So I put up with bad behavior in the name of loving the way I thought you were supposed to love.”

“Love is ease, love is comfort, love is support and respect. Love is not punishing or controlling. Love lets you grow and breathe. Love’s passion is only good passion — swirling-leaves-on-a-fall-day passion, a-sky-full-of-magnificent-stars passion — not angst and anxiety. Love is not hurt and harm. Love is never unsafe. Love is sleeping like puzzle pieces. It’s your own garden you protect; it’s a field of wildflowers you move about in both freely and together.”

“Love was also an easy word, used carelessly. Felons and creeps could offer it coated in sugar, and users could dangle it so enticingly that you wouldn’t notice that it had things attached – heavy things, things like pity and need, that were weighty as anchors and iron beams and just as impossible to get out from underneath.”

“I felt a constant, low-flying desperation, the kind you feel when you are trying, trying, trying to get something you will never, ever get.”

“It starts so young, and I’m angry about that. The garbage we’re taught. About love, about what’s “romantic.” Look at so many of the so-called romantic figures in books and movies. Do we ever stop and think how many of them would cause serious and drastic unhappiness after The End? Why are sick and dangerous personality types so often shown a passionate and tragic and something to be longed for when those are the very ones you should run for your life from? Think about it. Heathcliff. Romeo. Don Juan. Jay Gatsby. Rochester. Mr. Darcy. From the rigid control freak in The Sound of Music to all the bad boys some woman goes running to the airport to catch in the last minute of every romantic comedy. She should let him leave. Your time is so valuable, and look at these guys–depressive and moody and violent and immature and self-centered. And what about the big daddy of them all, Prince Charming? What was his secret life? We don’t know anything about him, other then he looks good and comes to the rescue.”

“I used to think that finding the right one was about the man having a list of certain qualities. If he has them, we’d be compatible and happy. Sort of a checkmark system that was a complete failure. But I found out that a healthy relationship isn’t so much about sense of humor or intelligence or attractive. It’s about avoiding partners with harmful traits and personality types. And then it’s about being with a good person. A good person on his own, and a good person with you. Where the space between you feels uncomplicated and happy. A good relationship is where things just work. They work because, whatever the list of qualities, whatever the reason, you happen to be really, really good together.”

“I finally learned that it was all right to say something wasn’t working for me when it wasn’t working. The world doesn’t come crashing down when you speak the truth.”

― Deb Caletti, The Secret Life of Prince Charming

“Everyone has this giant, luminous being that is their true self… Everyone is a sleeping

giant, so to speak, waiting to hear the call, waiting to surrender to it, waiting to act on

it. We’ve gotten caught up in thinking we are what we look like, the physical, the

exterior. We think we’re the lamp shade. We’ve forgotten that we are the light—the

electricity and the luminosity that lights up every man, woman, and child. The light is

who we truly are.”

—Michael Bernard Beckwith
