something that strike a chord with me:

相愛的人要懂得珍惜

聽來一個這樣的故事:有位男子邀請了幾位朋友來家裏做客,男子抽煙一支又一支。她的妻子輕輕地打開了窗戶,沒有言語。有一朋友悄悄問那妻子,你怎麼不阻止他抽煙呢?抽煙有害身體呀。那妻子笑了笑,說,對他來說,抽煙是快樂的,如果他能活八十歲,我寧願他快樂地生活六十年,而不願意他不快樂地多活二十年。這話讓那男子知道了,他便戒掉了煙。朋友問他為何能這麼容易地戒掉了煙,他說,我有這麼好的老婆,我為什麼要選擇少活二十年呢?

愛,是心靈與心靈的相知,它可以不要太多的語言來粉飾。真正相愛的人,會毫不計較地為情感付出,唯一的期盼只是對方的疼惜;真正相愛的人,會處處時時牽掛著對方,給他(她)以關懷體貼;真正相愛的人,一個動作,一個眼神,都能心領神會,那份相知的默契勝卻一切物質帶來的歡悅。

愛,是一種平等的相處,一種自然的情感延續,它需要一份彼此的理解與尊重。如果僅有一方的付出,愛便會失去正確的方向,甚至發展成畸形,最終塗上悲哀的色彩。有些情感從一開始便走入誤區,因為愛而傾心付出。久而久之養成的習慣令有些人覺得擁有對方的關愛是理所應當的。所以他不再感動,更不會以同樣的關愛來回報對方。

愛,是一種美麗卻又易逝的曇花,只有用心來澆灌,才能開出芬芳的花朵。劉若英在《後來》有一句歌詞唱得極好,有些人,一旦錯過就不再。在我們歎息得到的不珍惜,失去方知其寶貴的同時,晏殊在《浣溪沙》裏那句不如憐取眼前人是否給我們深刻的啟迪呢?生活的瑣屑,常常會令我們忽略自己的愛人,我們總會找許多的理由來為自己辯解、開脫。有些人,甚至做出傷害情感的行為,同時擁有多份情感,還美其名曰:喜新不厭舊。

愛,不是等價交換,它沒有公平的籌碼,但它卻宛如一架天平,兩端的砝碼不等,便會傾斜,差得太大時,便會失去重心。有人在婚姻的圍城裏,過得很累,筋疲力盡,但責任與道義感的存在,他們依舊毅然地支撐下去;有人在婚姻裏真正找到了溫馨幸福的歸屬,也許他們的生活並不很富裕,但卻擁有最寶貴的財富——發自內心的快樂。

真正愛一個人,是可以無私的付出,但愛又是具有排它性的,從這個角度說,愛也是自私的。重情重義的人,是不可能同時愛著兩個人的。人的一生,可以愛多個人,但那絕不會是在同一個階段。因為種種原因,不同的階段,也許會有不同的情感,只要我們用心對待,就能無怨無悔。生活可以是枯燥的,也可以是生動有趣的,就取決於我們對待人生的態度。

愛就像一串珠子,斷了一處,珠子就會依次掉滿一地。細心地呵護,珠子就會燦然發光;漫不經心,珠子就會散落無形。就如故事中的講到的男子一樣,如果他不用心去領悟妻子的一番愛意,那麼他是不會去戒掉自己鍾愛的煙的。

其實幸福很簡單,有語云:婚姻需要經營。的確,善於經營者,便會收穫幸福;不善於經營者,得到的只能是苦澀的青果。而這經營婚姻的精髓就是雙方互相的懂得。唯有懂得,愛更能情意綿綿;唯有懂得,愛更添溫馨無限;唯有懂得,愛方能經歷彌新!愛,需要懂得,懂得關心,懂得體貼,懂得一切為愛而應該付出的所有。

Note to Self

note to self: i'm not gonna let myself to be emotionally affected by you. i'm not gonna have my tears shed because of you. not ever again.

i'm gonna learn to let go. learn to let go of the memories that have trapped me inside this whole emotional mess. learn to let go of all the heart-fluttering talks and roses tinted plans of having a future together.

there's enough of tears shed, enough of heart breaking moments. enough of attachment to you like this that only breaks me. and enough of holding on to the expiry dates.

LDR

she remembers an article that was shared by him some long time ago when things were all flowers and hearts; and she remembers exactly how it had made her smile as she was reading through the lines.

love conquers all, and that distance means nothing other than a challenge - she had always believed in that. how could she have forgotten all this and the faith she once had in herself, him and them. how could she?

so what if you get hurt? so what if its not meant to be? at least you're lucky before. and i'm glad that i was reminded the once upon a time.

異地戀其實很幸福
有許多人不同意,畢竟分隔兩地,不能照顧依偎著對方,心裡的失落總是有的罷。 但是很多異地戀的人確實是幸福的,比任何人都幸福。

兩個人能整天膩在一起,固然很幸福,他們很少會寂寞,但是也很少有綿長的思念。思念本身就是一種最大的幸福,記得自來也大人曾經對名人說,思念你的人就是你的歸處。

擁有異地戀的人是幸運的,因為你擁有了一個願意和你一起堅持努力的人,你擁有了一顆能和你有著相同執著和夢想的心,你擁有了一份強烈到有勇氣挑戰可惡的距離的愛,這難道不是一種幸福嗎?

每當一個人靜靜的時候,想到有一個人和你一樣在堅守這如此脆弱的愛情,那種溫暖,不是異地戀的人是無法體會的,那是一種心靈無聲的溝通,是無條件的信賴。茫茫人海中,能找到這樣一個無條件信賴自己的人,這難道不是一種幸福嗎?

兩個人常常在一起,難免會大意,他們常常會一起吃飯,一起逛街,一起上課,但是卻常常忽略了心靈上的溝通。對於一份真正的愛情,溝通才是最重要的,它能保 持愛情的新鮮感,能讓對方了解現在愛著的是怎樣的一個人。只有了解了對方,愛情裡才不會有誤解, 才不會有錯失了的愛情。所以,異地戀的人有了愛情的優勢,他們很久都見不了面,有了心事,有了難過就在電話裡傾訴,他們的每一次交談都相當於一次交心,因 為彼此都能了解對方的想念,所以,在他們之間很少有了誤會,彼此都懂得了諒解,懂得了寬容。這難道不是一種幸福嗎?

甜言蜜語也算的愛情的潤滑劑吧,沒有一對戀人可以有像異地戀人那樣擁有繁多的機會說甜言蜜語,每次電話裡,總是無意中會說一些“想你”“等你”“愛你”, 即使話不多的人也一樣會說,因為彼此愛著,因為目前只有“語言”這樣一種工具可以表達自己的心情,因為愛的表達,其實都單一。所以,能堅持異地戀的人都是 深切的愛著的,這樣的愛在時間的河流里平淡卻激烈,我想這是所有人都會羨慕的愛。擁有著這樣的愛的你,難道不幸福嗎?

在愛情裡我最不怕的就是距離,只要真正愛著,終歸是能在一起。是啊,距離在那麼深切的愛里算什麼?什麼也不是。如果你們因為異地戀就輕易分手了,千萬不要 把罪過怪在距離上,你應該慶幸,自己離開了的一個並不真正愛你的人,因為在愛的面前,距離真的什麼也不是。所以,如果你的愛人也在遙遠的地方,不要覺得寂 寞,不要覺得委屈,要慶幸,你用寂寞和思念換來了一份真正的愛,那是別人求之不得的愛。

its one of those nights again. she has been trying to shovel off that disquite feelings within her, but it just keeps coming back to haunt her. what is wrong here. could it be the song? what was the conversation about? where was the affection? where was the cool? where did this estrangement come from?

there was a lot of talking in her head. there was a lot of pinging and ponging back and forth. and there was a lot of unanswered questions. she is scared. she is nervous about the sobriety with which she is approaching these things. she was afraid that things are going to go out of hand. she is afraid she might have sealed the deal. but in many ways, it is a very liberating fear.

at times like this, how she wished that...he would be able to take the distraught off her. but perhaps, she should stop being silly.

honestly, why does she care.
what has changed?

The Unexpected

3.30pm. i was sent the warmth of these bubbles. your unexpected hello from the other side of the world brought me back to that space of bubbles. a space without hesitation or second thoughts. a space with simple bliss and care. a space with genuinity and sincerity.

do you know how surprised i was when i saw that strangely familiar number flashing on my screen. i was nervous for a swift second after saying hello, unsure. i've never thought you'd called, but you did and you'd totally caught me off guard! sigh. how can i not be thankful to have met you in my life!

everything feels just like many years ago. you speak, i smile. when was the last time you called?!! even though it was just a mere 15 mins conversation, i was brimming with excitement and happiness.

there was sooo much that i wanted to talk to you about, and hear you share your on-goings. you sounded sooo happy and soooo... you. i just wished we had more time to talk. i wished i wasnt busy. i wished...

you had me smiling silly and floating away. and i cant help to secretly think that you're missing me to make that call.
