As We Journey Through Life

Women Are Twice As Likely To Snoop.
Women are twice as likely to snoop on their other halves than men.
A study of middle-aged couples found wives check emails, read text messages and look at web browser history.
And women often hone I.T. skills to improve their spying.
Ellen Helsper, of the London School of Economics which did the study, said: “Research suggests women are less technologically skilled than men. It seems they overcome these barriers when they feel their relationship is at stake”.

Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love.
It will not lead you astray.
( Rumi )

Choose friends you are proud to know, who love and respect you.

Love Means.
Love means that you accept a person as they are.
Love means you do not want to change that person into someone else.
Love means you will stand by that person through all the bad times.

I can fake a smile.
I can pretend to be happy.
I can do a lot of things.
But I can’t pretend I don’t love you.

What is the difference between “I like you” and “I love you”?
When you like a flower, you just pluck it.
But when you love a flower, you water it daily.
One who understands this, understands life.
( Buddha )

Keeping Your Partner Happy.
The key to keeping your partner happy is to “Think small”, say scientists.
It’s the little gestures which mean the most, rather than flashy gifts of jewellery, clothes and big bouquets of flowers.
Research has revealed that small acts of kindness – such as a celebratory meal, buying a favourite treat or looking after the children – have a deeper emotional impact.
The study, in the journal of science, said: “A little gratitude is a booster shot for relationships”.

No reason to stay is a good reason to go.

If you have to keep wondering where you stand with someone, perhaps it’s time to stop standing and start walking.

Love is a mirror.
In it you see nothing except your reflection.
You see nothing except your real face.
( Rumi )

If you don’t know my worth, I don’t want you.

For every moment I’ve been hurting, there wasn’t a single moment when I stopped loving you.

If you can go days without talking to me, go a couple more, I’m good.

As We Journey Through Life.
As we journey through life we may meet someone who is unlike any other.
You will be able to talk to this person for hours and never get bored.
You will be able to tell them anything and they will not judge you.
This person is your soul-mate, your true friend.
( Florence Emily Hookins, 1896-1962 )

Relationships should help you, not hurt you.
Life is too short to spend time with people who suck the happiness out of you.

If you still carry her bags, open the door for her, tell her she’s beautiful and show her respect.
You are a real man.

Your life isn’t yours if you always care what others think.

I know exactly where I’m valued and appreciated.
You’ll never find me where I’m not.
( Dau Voire )

Let’s take our love for a stroll in the woods and listen to the whispers of the trees.

Love Says.
I’ve seen the ugly parts of you, and I’m staying.

When some people get hurt they learn to hate.

Being someone’s first love is very special.
But to be their last love is wonderful.
( Elizabeth Florence Hutchison )

Remember.
Anyone can love you when the sun is shining.
It’s in the storms when you learn who truly cares.

Surround yourself with people who reflect the person you want to be.

A true friend is someone who overlooks your broken fence and admires the flowers in your garden.

Give the ones you love wings to fly, roots to come back.
And reasons to stay.
( Dalai Lama )

A Wish For You.
Comfort on difficult days.
Smiles when sadness intrudes.
Rainbows to follow the clouds.
Laughter to feel your lips.
Sunsets to warm your heart.
Gentle hugs when spirits sag.
Friendship to brighten your day.
Beauty for your eyes to see.
Confidence for when you doubt.
Faith so that you can believe.
Courage to know yourself.
Patience to accept the truth.
And love to complete your life.

Everybody loves you until you become competition.

It’s very easy to say ‘busy’ when someone needs you.
But it’s very painful to hear ‘busy’ when you need someone.

We need leaders not in love with money but in love with justice.
Not in love with publicity but in love with humanity.
( Martin Luther King, Jr. )

It’s such a disappointment when you defend someone for so long thinking they are different and they turn out to be just like what everyone said.

I just want to be the warm yellow light that pours all over everyone I love.

Some people aren’t who they say they are.
Be cautious of the company you keep.
Be careful who you trust.

One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life.
That word is love.
( Sophocles )

Sometimes a person enters your life out of nowhere and suddenly means the world to you.

Only you can make the darkness bright.
Only you can make this world seem right.

Choose friends who make your day a little brighter simply by being in it.

Blessed is the influence of one true, loving human soul on another.
( George Eliot )

Who cares for your beauty if your tongue is ugly.
Who cares for your good looks if your soul is ugly.

I miss the old you.
The one that cared about me.

I’ve come to realise that the only people I need in my life are the ones who need me in theirs, even when I have nothing else to offer them but myself.

So much of what is best in us is bound up in our love of family, that it remains the measure of our stability because it measures our sense of loyalty. 
( Haniel Long )

Being listened to is close to being loved.
Many can’t tell the difference.

I could search and search the whole world through, and I’d never find someone as special as you.

If it doesn’t make you feel good, it’s not love.
True love makes you feel better, it makes you feel more, not less.

A couple of times in your life, it happens like that.
You meet a stranger, and all you know is that you need to know everything about him.
( Lisa Kleypas )

No matter how old you get, never stop holding hands, never stop dancing, and never stop saying “I love you”.

The only man who deserves you is the one who thinks he doesn’t.

A good woman will be a man’s peace.
And a good man will be a woman’s protection.

A perfect person is easy to love.
But when somebody likes all your imperfections, well, that’s when you know they really mean it. 
( Michelle Dalton )

A beautiful face will age and a perfect body will change.
But a beautiful soul will always be a beautiful soul.

Avoid people who only remember you when they want something from you.

I spend every moment just loving you.
You are the best thing that ever happened to me.

Accidents ambush the unsuspecting, often violently, just like love. 
( Andrew Davidson )

Two things that may change you.
Your mind has been opened, or your heart has been broken.

There’s a big difference between someone telling you they love you and them actually loving you.

Jesus was not a Christian and Buddha was not a Buddhist.
They were teachers who taught love and peace.
Love and peace was their religion.

Something amazing happens when you’re in love and don’t give a damn about what day it is anymore. 
( Chad Sugg )

How a person reacts to your sadness gives you an idea of how long they will stay in your life.

During your life you will fall out with people that you never thought you would.
You will get betrayed by people you trusted.
You will get used by people you would do anything for.
Always stay strong.
You will overcome things you never thought you would get over.

Friends are family you choose.

Human Beings Are Funny.
They long to be with the person they love but refuse to admit openly.
Some are afraid to show even the slightest sign of affection because of fear.
Fear that their feelings may not be recognised, or even worst, returned.
But one thing about human beings puzzles me the most is their conscious effort to be connected with the object of their affection even if it kills them slowly within.
( Sigmund Freud )
