Falling in L-O-V-E

Pain and Risk

For those who have loved and been hurt; for those who haven't loved at all; and for those who are just about to discover the beauty of this moving experience, this is for you.
In thinking of your past love, you may view it as a failure. But when you find a new one, you suddenly see this failure as a teacher.
In the game of love, it doesn't really matter who won or lost.

What is important is you know when to hold on and when to let go! You know you really love someone when you want him or her to be happy, even if his/her happiness means not you being part of it.
Everything happens for the best. If the person you love doesn't love you back don't be afraid to love someone else again; you'll never know if it will be returned unless you give it a try. You never really loved unless you risk for it.
Love strives and grows in hurting. If you don't get hurt, you don't learn how to love.
Love doesn't hurt all the time. The hurting is there to test you and help you grow.
Love is not destroyed by a single failure or won by a single caress. It is a lifetime learning, discovering and growing.

Love's greatest irony is letting go when you need to hold on and/or holding on when you need to let go. Loving people means giving them the freedom to choose whom and where they want to be, regardless whether those choices lead toward or away from you.
We lose someone we love only when we are destined to find someone else who can love us even more than we can love ourselves.
Don't find love, let love find you!
Some words to live by. And yes nobody wins or lose in being in-love. You simply have to cherish the feeling or learn from it and move on.

Now, can i say I love You?
