Words of Love and Hate

When the heart is too near to each other, it loses the perspective..sometimes clouded by jealousy and wrongly made conclusions. Being human, of course, there are times that we do not see eye to eye, times where we hurt each other feelings unintentionally, times where we stubbornly tried not to talk to each other. But in the end, we came back together. The moment of tears were so little when compared to the joy and laughter that we shared. We would forgive each other then and the feelings that we had would just become stronger. *************************************************

“One of the hardest things in life is having words in your heart that you can't utter.”
