“You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She's not perfect—you aren't either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break—her heart. So don't hurt her, don't change her, don't analyze and don't expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she's not there.”

“Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you’ve never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, you can’t wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and even beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it’s like being young again. Colours seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn’t exist at all. A phone call or two during the day helps to get you through a long day’s work and always brings a smile to your face. In their presence, there’s no need for continuous conversation, but you find you’re quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there’s a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that’s so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life.”

“Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up.”

“صدقني يا عزيز ما النسيان الا ادعاء
ندعي النسيان
لنقنع الاخرين و أنفسنا بأننا قادرون علي المضي قدما
وعلي أن يكون في حيواتنا أشخاص جدد وعوض جديد
وحياة أخري ندرك جيدا بأنها ستظل ناقصة
لكن الموت في الحقيقة لاعوض له
كخسارتك
ففقدك لا يعوضه مال ولا زوج ولا ولد
قلت لي مرة بأننا
لانفقد سوي ما نخشي فقدانه
ولم أؤمن وقتذاك بما قلت
ظننت حينها بان القدر لا يفرق ما نخاف خسراته
وبين نا لايؤثر بنا غيابه
لكنني اليوم اعرف باننا لا نفقد سوي ما نخشي فقده
لاننا عادة لا نشعر بفقدان ما لايشكل لنا أهمية تذكر
…………………………………………………………
أذكر بانك قلت لي يوما بانك مؤمن بان الحب دوما ينتصر
قلت
صدقيني جمان مؤمن انا بان الحب يصنع المعجزات
لكنني اعرف اليوم كما تعرف جيدا
ان الحب اضعف من ان يخلق معجزة
أو ان يغير قدرا و مصيرا
الحب لا ينتصر في كل معاركه يا عزيز
يخسر الحب
يخنع ويضعف وينهار و أحيانا يموت
لكنه لا ينسي بكل حالاته
انتظرت ان تشملنا كرامة او ان تنقذنا معجزة
لكن المعجزات لم تعرف طريقنا
فتباعدت خطانا عن بعضنا بعضا
واصبح لكل منا مصير مختلف وارض بعيدة وطريق جديد”
