Life is short.
It really is. Don’t ever forget that.
Always cherish and be thankful for your loved ones. Keep them close to your heart. And tell them that you love them constantly. Because one day, when you leave this world, they’ll know just how much you loved and cared for them.
Hear You Me

For you, dearest.
We’re always thinking of you.

Happy 21st Birthday, Arlene.
We all miss you so much. Rest in eternal peace, my dear.
Love,

Love is a very powerful thing. It really doesn’t discriminate in the sense that every person is able to experience it. Even the people who surprise you the most.
I don’t think I’ve ever experienced real love before. I wish I had, and I wish I could proudly say that I was in my past relationships. Maybe infatuation at the most with a person, but not real love.
Although I’ve never experienced it firsthand, I look at a lot of the relationships around me and I see how much love can change a person. And something that God has been showing me is that love changes people, in both good and bad ways. And once you lose that love, something happens to you, and you just can’t seem to recover until you’ve found love again. And I see how painful it can be to fall in love sometimes, and just how unbearable it is to lose your love. It also has the power to make you so happy that you could “just die in that moment”.
For the longest time, I thought love was for suckers. I never really understood why anyone would go through that much pain just for a SHOT at love. It never really made sense to me, and it still doesn’t. But I guess I have to be in that situation in order to fully understand. I never minded not experiencing love yet, because I still have so much besides love. But for some reason, this theme of “love” keeps following me around, and I can’t seem to avoid it. And I haven’t given it much thought until now.
It wasn’t until today that I really looked into myself and realized just how jealous I am of those who have fallen in love, even if it were just for a day. Despite all the pain and the hardship you go through, somehow it was all worth it.
I wish I had something so important to me that I would fight to the death for it.
And I know it sounds crazy, but I wish I had that.
Lady Gaga taught me Its okay to be different. Ke$ha taught me to be myself and not care what anyone else thinks. Bruno Mars taught me to do anything for that one person I love. Eminem taught me that life is hard but you can make it through. Taylor Swift taught me not every guy is going to treat me right. Michael Jackson taught me to always love the people around me. Bob Marley taught me to live my life in peace. Music taught me how to live.
