the acts of falling in love

11

(this is just a filler chapter)
i choose you, and ill always choose you, over and over. without a pause, without a doubt, in a heartbeat. ill keep choosing you.

promise yourself

that you're going to be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. to talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet.

to make all your friends feel that there is something in them. to look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.

to think only the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best. to be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.

to forget the mistakes of the past and press on the greater achievements of the future. to wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.

to give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others. to be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

to think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud words but great deeds. to live in faith that the whole world is on your side, so long as you are true to the best that is in you.

above all, don't lie to yourself. the person who lies to themselves and listens to their own lies comes to a point where they cannot distinguish the truth within themselves and around them, and so they loose all respect for everyone, including themselves.

they say a person needs just three things to be truly happy in this world: someone to love, something to do, and something to hope for.

the world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands live is not mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater.

you are my hope. my main and only source of true happiness.

forever i will love you for that.
