A chance to see you

-



I could have gone home early today but i didnt.

I didnt because the only thing i could think about was that i wanted to see you and the only instance whereby i could conceive this happening- where i might get a chance to see you- was if you decided to take the train home and we would happen to cross paths. So i stood in front of the train station tonight, waiting like some kind of fool. Fool because i didnt even know what i was waiting for. For you to come down the escalator? To see you? Would we even speak? I didn't even know if you were in the city today. I didnt know if you would even take the train if by some chance you were in the city. For all i knew you could have been at home or anywhere else for that matter. So i stood like a prize idiot, waiting there by myself. Not even knowing what i was waiting for.

Here is my confession, I’m Weak. So for maybe a minute or an hour or for however long it takes before my pride take over once again, i’m going to be okay with not being okay. And i’m going to say that i miss you and i’m going to admit that i stood in front of a train station for over an hour tonight just because all i wanted all day was a chance to see you.

Much love,
B.

    Aww... I've done that before, waiting for something I knew wasn't going to happen. The chances are slim, but we still convince ourselves to hope.

    But, then again, what's so wrong with admitting you need someone, sometimes? With taking a chance? (Even you do seem a little crazy?)

    I mean, being in love and being a little crazy... there isn't much of a difference between the two, right?

    I would soooo do that. Sometimes seeing that one person is what makes our days even worth it. Sometimes we take the chance and we wait - maybe it works , maybe it doesn't. But sometimes you just have to try. Would lovelorn be the right word for that?

    P.S. I think being willing to wait for someone in a train station is beautifully romantic.

    I have been there. I went down to visit my best friend at college and I know his best friend goes there too. I thought there would be no way that we would run into each other but we literally ran into each other. I stood there and he looked at me and turned away. Sometimes its better to just move on then feel the pain of what happens when you see someone you desperately want to see but they dont want to see you : /

    Wow, I've always wanted to do that, waiting for someone just in case they would show up and you would meet and everything would turn out good. I wish you the best of luck in the future, with love & life!

    Waiting for someone just because you have a chance to see him, is such a beautiful idea.

    Hope is painful, exhausting and false most of the time, isn't it...

    Love has reasons that reason itself can´t justify... There isn´t a soul in the world that hasn´t done something like this before in the name of love and hope.

Risk

“Cinderella walked on broken glass, Sleeping beauty let her whole life pass by, Belle fell in love with a beast, Pocahontas risked her life for a feast, Jasmine could have had anyone but she chose a poor man, and Ariel, she walked on land.” So many people dislike fairytales because it makes us believe in love, believe that a prince will swoop down and save us when something goes wrong. But I’ve come to realize that in every fairytale-like movie, every girl took a risk. Took a risk for love, took a risk in the name of love. So, how do we know if our own fairytale won’t really happen if we don’t try, if we stop believing in love? I know it’s hard for some of you to put down their guard and to learn to trust someone else sometimes. I know because I’ve been through it. People like us, we distance ourselves from people we genuinely like just because we are afraid to get hurt. But does building up these walls ultimately saves us from hurting? It doesn...

In Your Life...

-
In your life you meet people. Some are just an episode and you never will think about them again. There are some that you wonder if they ever think about you. And some you wonder what might have happened to them. And then there are some you wish you never had to think about again. But you do. In your life you don't get the people you want. You get the people you need. To love you. To hate you. To teach you. To hurt you. To make you smile. To make you cry. To make you exactly the person you are. But what do you do when suddenly people you know become people you KNEW. And people who used to be a major part of your life are not present there anymore. When you try to make a difference but it all is in vain. When I love you’s become goodbye’s. When you can't even talk to them anymore because they never will talk the way they USED TO. What do you do when you can’t accept what things ARE because you still remember how they USED.TO.BE. In your life you don’t feel h...

Show You Care

-
I feel the capacity to care is the thing which gives life its deepest significance. Caring - feel and exhibit concern and empathy for others - from one of online dictionaries How many truly caring people you have met in your life? The ones that unconditionally care for people around them. The ones who dont think about making the world better but still are doing this. The ones who are there for you to give support even though you have not stated you need it. People who ask "How are you?" and actually want to know this. People who will stay in touch no matter what because they need to be sure you will be fine. Someone who would call you on your bad day few hours after you left them in the office/school/cafe just to make sure you are feeling better. Someone who will be there for you when you want them to be... and even when you dont want to. Living for others, giving them comfort, support, love, understanding? Whenever I have been told t...
