It's kind of fun to do the impossible.

because if u r not careful; u might forget who u r; because if u leave it there for too long; it might disappear forever; because if u ask the wrong question; u might never get there; because if u dont care; u might not see it again tomorrow; because life is so much more than just because and if.

The real distinction is between those who adapt their purposes to reality and those who seek to mold reality in the light of their purposes

就在这里- 我哭了。

我不知道怎么办才好；
不是所有事都能那么顺利的；
本来想做得更好些的、， 可是，就是做不好， 可能已经怀不上孩子了；
只要一直把孩子放在心上就好了， 不要遗忘他就可以了；
你对很多事情都太在意了， 老想那么多， 就算被别人讨厌也无所谓啊，重要的是让自己喜欢的人喜欢自己；
喜欢的人不知道是否和自己心意相通；明明一直在身边；却不知道是否是为了我在一直在身边的；
没事的， 怎么会这样想呢？
总觉得， 明明知道正相行渐远，却不知道怎么办才好；
都说是你想太多了， 想太多了才多出这些莫名其妙的问题，没事的；
为什么，为什么要和我在一起？
因为爱你， 因为爱你才想和你在一起的， 如果你不在了，我也会很痛苦的，有些事情做不好就算了，好好在一起吧；
本来想好好做的， 可是就是做不好；
对不起，对不起；
对不起，对不起。。。。。。

You can't choose the ways in which you'll be tested

"coffee"....."hmm huh".

有时候你真的是要仔细看；用心听；慢慢体会；因为虽然他不说但是你要知道有些事、细节、无论如何的小； 例如你将发夹不经意的留在他的梳妆台上；其实他是很在意的。

"you'll find someone"; he said to me; maybe that's not what i want; i just dont want to find someone; just maybe.

Certainly, travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living.
-- Miriam Beard

A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, if he is to be ultimately at peace with himself. What a man can be, he must be.

-- Abraham Maslow (1908-1970) American Psychologist

Whoso would be a man must be a nonconformist

how can u say things like that? u dont even know me. u just assume and condemn; u thought u given me a chance; u thought u done everything u could; but u never really did; u never really try to get to know me; all im asking; thats all im asking; a chance; 1 chance.

When you're through changing, you're through

其实我不知道应该怎么做怎么说； 我又哭了；好伤心；只是一直觉得自己无能；为什么会让你难过伤心呢；我真的不要；我以为我是很小心的；这一次原来我失算了。

To repeat what others have said, requires education; to challenge it, requires brains

280809; 18:54; 04.54; 红酒杯；半满；今晚想要微微的醉掉；很喜欢这一个字: tipsy； 就这样；要走了吗？还没； 你什么时候回来？我等你； 不到5分钟的谈话；其实我们觉得已经说了很多；感觉对了连说的话都显得不太重要；你的发还是湿的；我轻抚着你的脸；“你拍的照片；我好老”； 那是我们才第二次在一起拍的照； 其实我们认识了3年正正式式拉你的手也是第一次； 这么久了；不是觉得害羞；只是觉得没有必要；都在想；对方一定会明白的；they will get it; “i will miss u”; 你笑了； 我最喜欢你笑了； miss me too, k? xxx

Good people are good because they've come to wisdom through failure

she's sipping her coffee; no milk; only sugar; dark; "i'd be lying if i say yes, but im happy here with u"; that really mean something; to me; "i know what i put u thru"; do u? i thought u never care to understand; "i remember every single word u ever say, every single thing u ever told me, i refuse to forget, i am that weak i admit"; im touch; "i dont need more than this right now, this is my life, in a pattern i set myself to be in, i dont need additional burden, i dont wish to start over and go thru all the hassle, do u understand?"; i think i do; i am following u every step of the way; until now, aint i?

The wisdom of the wise and the experience of the ages are perpetuated in quotations

** 10 photography quotes that you should know**

I long to accomplish a great and noble task, but it is my chief duty to accomplish small tasks as if they were great and noble

你真的是很镇定； 你真的是比我成熟多了；我以为我们经过了一些就等于换来了再一次的机会；原来不然；你对我的感觉还是只是一般；还是只是一样；我没有在恨；也没有再爱；我慢慢在理智着；慢慢的。

Great people talk about ideas, average people talk about things, and small people talk about wine

我一早就知道我们已经远远超越了做朋友这一关卡； 只是我们从来不承认彼此对对方的感觉； 我不知道我们害怕的是什么； but i know this much; i can never go back not having you as a friend.

When we accept tough jobs as a challenge to our ability and wade into them with joy and enthusiasm, miracles can happen

接到你的电话；二话不说；就决定了；就这样；我们去了海边。

一路上来回你驾着车；我感觉到幸福；就觉得无论发生什么事；和你在一起就好；车上我们有说有笑； 你轻轻拉着我的手； 再长的路原来只要那一个人陪着你一起走真的就不会觉得很远了；真的。

沿途你一路说着你的计划； 我们相识这么久还是头一遭约在一起旅游； 我从来不问因为我总是假设你想要一个人； 你说要和我一起再来。

我俩各自各做自己的事：我听歌、看书、你忙着翻译、日光浴、摄影；拍下了不少好的照片；虽然第一天晚上出现了小小的瑕疵；但换来的竟是这一次旅程中最最难忘的回忆。

这两天的相处里；我们聊了很多； 比起三年里的话来的多；再加上一次的争吵；我更加了解你了；我没有想过自己倔强的个性竟然伤害到你； 我宁愿你这样；让我看清楚真相； 而你竟一而再再而三确定地告诉我；一个人的你并不寂寞孤单；这是自己所做的决定；你只是一直一直地看着我；看着我；你对我说：以后不许你在我面前为了我哭； 知道吗？

你说你很久没有这样快乐了； 这是我能为你小小做的；让你快乐。

你 问起我的事； 我也不是很想说；但还是说了；怎么说呢？都过去了；爱也爱过了；不会再回来；我不知道为什么你突然关心着我那一段已经逝去的恋情； "dont u miss being around with someone?", 我问； 有些事原来是真的不做就永远不会再有机会做了的；你说你已经远远超越再一次投身进去恋爱的年纪了；那多可悲啊；爱是一件这样美丽的事呀；我想当人上了年纪若然要 再一次重复一些他们不想要做的事他们宁愿选择走开；"but i have you, you've taken a very special place in my life"; "yes and you too".

为什么突然间距离你离开的时间越近；我们却相处得越亲密；我不想再受伤害； 如果这一次你想来真的；你不能耍我； 我会疯掉；彻彻底底的疯掉。

因为我在很久以前；就已经决定放弃和忘记终有一天我能够和你在一起的念头。

Good friendships are fragile things and require as much care as any other fragile and precious thing

我对你又重新有了依恋。

i fall for you again; once more; you have the intention to get closer; i lose sight of your motive; no longer afraid of getting hurt; sometimes i wonder: you like the things because i say you wont like it; or simply because you really like it; for whatever reason behind our conversation; i still think is because you want to get even; we talked a lot more of our feelings; involving things more intimate than just physical attraction; i like the way u hug me like this, it's cute.

Nothing is too small to know, and nothing is too big to attempt.

你一直谢谢我；因为你说这两天的旅程你享受着很久都没有过的快乐；我没有忘记自己应该和你有的距离；我还是如此认真地、小心翼翼地、谨慎地；不愿露出任何的蛛丝马迹；你的心不在我这里就算我在你心目中的地位如何特殊；也只不过是如此而已；如此而已。

If the facts don't fit the theory, change the facts

如果不作出努力；再多的爱也是枉然。

Personality can open doors, but only character can keep them open

my dearest: i hope one day; eventually; u will find her and get the happiness u deserve; i still love u; no matter what.

就这样；原来就是这样的简单；在你告诉我的刹那； 我有一点儿惊讶但我还是保持镇定听你把故事说完； 原来你还是爱着她；远距离需要耐心意志还有很多的时间；你说你们还是很深爱着对方；但我不明白既然这样爱就应该想办法在一起；无论如何；但你说你们彼此适应了在不同国度里的生活；没有想过要让步；但亦没有因此敞开心房接受或展开新的恋情；因为你太爱她；而她亦然；moving on; there's really nothing much i can say at this point; you dont want to start over and you dont want to let go; i dont know much about u both; but i think love is about compromise; if both side are not willing to let go and just continue dealing with their own lives; in the end; nothing will be achieved; at least to me i think so；想到这里我还是哭了。

Honest differences are often a healthy sign of progress

i used to think is rather ridiculous to put one relationship status as "it's complicated"; as i grow older i find out there's not only love and hate, there's so much more in between; hence the complication; u can love someone as long as u live but that someone will not love u back in return, never, ever; and that's a sick sick fact.

我真的没有想怎样；我希望你没有误会； u have no obligation, like i alwaz said; 因为我在你心中没有地位。

coz i would assume that u want to be alone; week after week with so many of ur friends visiting; even though i really wanted to; i just cant find the guts; i dont dare to ask; want to spend some time alone with u; i just plainly assuming; something im so good at; been wanting and dying to know if sometimes, just sometimes if u miss being around with someone; even just the mere idea of it; i wish one day i could asked u that question out loud; for the sake of it.

I hate life, I hate death and everything in between just doesn't interest me

如果对你说不想你；是假的；

就只是想知道你过得好吗；

彼此分离的日子很快就要到了；

我应该不会哭了；

不知道怎样哭了；

只是知道我会一直一直很想很想你；

因为；

如果对你说我不想你；那是假的。

If you want to be respected, you must respect yourself

Millions of words are written annually purporting to tell how to beat the races, whereas the best possible advice on the subject is found in the three monosyllables: 'Do not try.'
-- Dan Parker

Do the one thing you think you cannot do. Fail at it. Try again. Do better the second time. The only people who never tumble are those who never mount the high wire. This is your moment. Own it.
-- Oprah Winfrey, O Magazine, September 2003

Do what you love, love what you do, leave the world a better place and don't pick your nose.
-- Jeff Mallett, Frazz, 08-03-04

Do not listen to those who weep and complain, for their disease is contagious.
-- Og Mandino

Trouble is part of your life, and if you don't share it, you don't give the person who loves you a chance to love you enough

sometimes u just really want to give up;
sometimes u dont see it worth the while;
if only u wait for it long enough;
if only u can have it all over again;
listen to yourself;
deep down inside;
there is no if;
there will never be if;
u will find the strength to go on;
even when it means u have to do it on ur own;
but trust me;
you are never ever alone.

Think like a man of action, act like a man of thought

还有一个多月的时间；已经慢慢去准备好心情；再次渡过没有你在我身边的日子；02：08； 你来电一如往常；因为你看见一些让你想起我的事； 你对我不在意的事有很多；我不想一一再说；反正我们也没有怎样；不过3个月； 太长了；但是我要等你回来。
