The path we have chosen
It was early January of 2005. I got a call from a random guy that my cousin was talking too. He gave my number to his cousin. His cousin started calling me. I hated the fact that my number was given to random people that I didn’t know.
Everytime he called, I would make up an excuse not to talk to him. He knew that too, but he kept calling. Eventually, I got bored and started talking to him. We never met, but we continue to talk over the phone. I didn’t realize that each time I talk to him, the time just fly by. Soo, it was the end of the school year. My cousins auntie past away. There was a funeral sometime tha June.
He decided to come and meet me there. I didn’t expect him to come, but he did. I was the server also. I was helping out me cousins. I went to hand out some drinks and thats when we first met. He was with a group of friends. They asked me if I knew anyone named Ley. I said yes. I asked them why and they said that their friend wanted to know. I looked up and he was sitting at the end of the table looking at me. I didn’t say my name to let them know it was me. I just said yes that I know someone named Ley. He said that he wanted to meet her. At that time, I got really nervous and I can feel the butterflies in my stomach.
I wasn’t sure if it was him, so I made sure to ask his cousin if he was here. His cousin said that he was at the funeral. That night, he left home and gave me a call. We talked on the phone and made plans to come see eachother face to face. The next day, I got so nervous that I didn’t go up to him. He didn’t come to me either.
After our first meeting, we became closer. We started talking everynight. He would call me about 9p.m. when I get free minutes. We would continue to talk until 12a.m. or even 1a.m. I didn’t realize that we were talking so long every night.
That year went by really fast. The school year started again. We went to school and got busy, but we still made time to talk on the phone at night with eachother. We never asked eachother out. We were never girlfriend or boyfriend. We never told others that we were talking every night. But we knew deep down that there was something there to return too.
Then summer of 06 came. Eventually he got his drivers license. We were in the same grade, it was just that he was older by a year. When he got his license he came to visit me. He brought his friends too. My friends came along too. It was the year in my entire life. The whole group planned a picnic and went to the park. We would hang outside in the ally every night. We had a blast.
Finally, the summer was ending and it was his friends birthday. We went to the park to do the birthday party. There, he held my hands for the first time. We took a stroll in the forest, and he held onto my hand as I followed in. It was the best moment ever.
Soon after that, the group of friends dispatched. There was some girl problems, then they stopped coming over. That was the end of my wonderful summer. Even though the groups of friends wasn’t together, me and him was talking every night. IT was 7 dyas a week that we talked. Sometimes, we had nothing to talk about seriously, but we continued to talk and laugh about nonsense. Sometimes he would drive to my house and its about 1a.m. in the morning. He would park in the alley, sit in his car and talk to me. Sometimes he would come and stand outside my window and talk to me through the phone.
Then, I realized how much he meant to me. I realized that I went to school thinking of him. I went to school hoping that it would be night time already. I woke up hoping he would call me in the morning. Sometimes, he did. I continue to hope for more. I didn’t know what he wanted when he started talking to other girls.
He started calling me later. We didn’t talk as long anymore. He often tell me that the other girl is pretty and nice. He tells me about the girls he talked to. I listened to him tell me all of this. But he continued to call me even after he got a girlfriend. He tells his girlfriend about me and brings his girlfriend to come see me. He often stop by my house before he goes to his girlfriend’s house.
I didn’t understand anymore. We weren’t girlfriend and boyfriend. We had not kissed before. But I felt a sharp pain everytime he talks about his girlfriend to me. He knows also because he kept saying that it hurts a lot to know that you love someone, but can’t say it. I never knew what he meant until now. I was so stubborn that I thought and continue to tell myself that he wasn’t talking about us.
I decided to move on and find a boyfriend. When I found my boyfriend, he was mad at me. He calls me the same and still come to stand outside my window. I ignored him and pushed him away. I never told him how much I truly loved him. I kept pushing him away because he never told me that he loves me too.
As the year progressed, he asked me to marry him. I said no everytime he asked. I repeatedly told him to go marry his girlfriend. I gave him no chance to explain himself. By June of 2008, he got married. He came to see me at work the day he was going to elope with his girlfriend. He helped me take out the trash. He gave me a touch on my cheek and said that this will be the last time before he left.
That night he called me and said that him and his girlfriend have reached his house. They are about to go in, for me to go to sleep and not wait anymore for him to call. I cried all night that night. I didn’t realize how much it hurts and how much I wanted him. Then I thought about the good relationship between me and my boyfriend and I cried more.
I knew that it was gone, what we had. My mother told me that he likes me a lot, but because we decided not to date, we started seeing other people. My mom knew that I love him, but it couldn’t be helped now. She told me that I made his decision for him when he got married. I made the decision for him to get married. It was all my fault.
Six months after, I got married to my husband.
The path that both of us was taking was ones that we did not choose by ourself, but we chose for eachother. I told him to go get married and forget about me…he got married. He told me to move…I got married.
I know that he still dreams about me and I still wait for his calls sometimes. I can still remember his phone number even though he changed it now. I know that he can still remember mines.
We had pure innocnet love. But we both decided to let it go, because we were both so stubborn to realize how much one another meant to each of us.
I haven’t seen him since he got married. I still look for his car, when I go places. This is how I know that what we had will live on in our hearts.
A Silent Love
From the very Beginning, the girl’s family objected strongly on her dating this guy. Saying that it has got to do with family background & that the girl will have to suffer for the rest of her life if she were to be with him.
Due to family’s pressure, the couple quarrel very often. Though the girl love the guy deeply, but she always ask him: “How deep is your love for me?”
As the guy is not good with his words, this often cause the girl to be very upset. With that & the family’s pressure, the girl often vent her anger on him. As for him, he only endure it in silence.
After a couple of years, the guy finally graduated & decided to further his studies in overseas. Before leaving, he proposed to the girl: “I’m not very good with words. But all I know is that I love you. If you allow me, I will take care of you for the rest of my life. As for your family, I’ll try my best to talk them round. Will you marry me?”
The girl agreed, & with the guy’s determination, the family finally gave in & agreed to let them get married. So before he leave, they got engaged.
The girl went out to the working society, whereas the guy was overseas, continuing his studies. They sent their love through emails & phone calls. Though it’s hard, but both never thought of giving up.
One day, while the girl was on her way to work, she was knocked down by a car that lost control. When she woke up, she saw her parents beside her bed. She realised that she was badly injured. Seeing her mum crying, she wanted to comfort her. But she realized that all that could come out of her mouth was just a sigh. She has lost her voice……
The doctors says that the impact on her brain has caused her to lose her voice. Listening to her parents’ comfort, but with nothing coming out from her, she broke down.
During the stay in hospital, besides silence cry,…..it’s still just silence cry that companied her. Upon reaching home, everything seems to be the same. Except for the ringing tone of the phone. Which pierced into her heart everytime it rang. She does not wish to let the guy know. & not wanting to be a burden to him, she wrote a letter to him saying that she does not wish to wait any longer.
With that, she sent the ring back to him. In return, the guy sent millions & millions of reply, and countless of phonecalls,.. all the girl could do, besides crying, is still crying….
The parents decided to move away, hoping that she could eventually forget everything & be happy.
With a new environment, the girl learn sign language & started a new life. Telling herself everyday that she must forget the guy. One day, her friend came & told her that he’s back. She asked her friend not to let him know what happened to her. Since then, there wasn’t anymore news of him.
A year has passed & her friend came with an envelope, containing an invitation card for the guy’s wedding. The girl was shattered. When she open the letter, she saw her name in it instead.
When she was about to ask her friend what’s going on, she saw the guy standing in front of her. He used sign language telling her “I’ve spent a year’s time to learn sign language. Just to let you know that I’ve not forgotten our promise. Let me have the chance to be your voice. I Love You. With that, he slipped the ring back into her finger. The girl finally smiled.
unsure love,finally sure love
Well, when I was a 13 years girl who just stepped the teen age fall in love with one guy named Alex, who was 2 years older than me. I don’t know when and where I fall for him. He was also studying in same school where I used to study. Actually he was the popular guy of our school and of our city.
Everybody loves him and teachers used to admire him. In Actual he was sort of celebrity because he used to act in the Tele movie. Which was great hit and he was playing the leading role in that. He was good at acting, well at studies, well in sports and he was well mannered. Well he is good in playing Basketball and the captain of the team of our school. Actually our school had won many games of basketball and it’s because of him and his team player. He was all rounder and he was the coolest guy of our school and state as well.
At first I used to talk about him a lot and one day I just met him in the school bus. Actually he usually didn’t go by bus but he was coincidentally in the bus. So there I met him there for the first time. At that time he was already in the school bus and me and my pal Michelle we were entering the school bus there was other notorious and bully boys. Among them one of the boy just kept the leg in front of my way and I didn’t see it and I was about to fall suddenly Alex caught me in his warm arms and I was clanged in his arms for a moment. At that time I introduce me and my friend and thanked him. I was very at that moment and felt like an angel.
After then we just stare each other in the school. But we never ever talked and shared our feelings with each other because I used to feel uneasy and used to scare to talk with him. He always used to stare me in every break time and when we coincidently met each other but he didn’t used to utter a word. I loved him from inside but couldn’t show him and share him. finally when he passed his grade-10 and had a last day on school which was farewell day, I farewell him without uttering a word because I wasn’t sure that he love me or not and I was scared to propose him if his answer will be ‘no’ .so, Neither I told him something nor he told me something for his high school and we never met thereafter and only his memory was left behind.
After that we began to see each other coincidently sometime like I used to see him coincidentally once in long interval of time because he was still inside the city. He was still in the state and hasn’t moved to the city and I was so shocked by that and was curious to know the reason why he didn’t move to city?
But one day when I passed my school then I got some time and I was going for the violin class and was in the way to return back home. I saw him with his Pal in his splendid car. I was aw. At that time he was not only a Tele movie star but also a film star.
After that time, I saw him everyday when I was returning back home. As I told it that he used to stare me. Throughout this time he was staring me and one day I was with my Pal and busy talking ,returning from violin class I was on the way to my home there he came in his car and came out of the car, yanked me, told “I love u” and kissed me. At that time my whole body was freezing. I was so confused what to say or what to do. I was motionless at that time and then he wrote something on my hand. While he finished writing he told me again “if you love me too then you’ll call me tonight”. He told this much and he went away. As he was going away from me some people and chic recognize him and was screaming and following him to take autograph of him. But I was there only staring him.
My Pal Michelle who was with me was also shocked for a moment and after a while she started to mock me. When I reached at home I was totally perplexed what to do. That was past and after that moment when he’s last day of school was on, I stopped to think about him and here I had already one Boyfriend Steve. I think a lot and recalled my past moments and came to conclusion that he is my first love so I should give a chance to it.
Then I phoned him and talked with him. From that I came to know that he wanted me to be first to propose him and start this relation but I was unaware about it and when he saw me on the way he could not stop himself and he exposed it. So, after that I was feeling great but another problem stood there and that is about my boyfriend. I thought for a moment and came in conclusion that I should give up that relationship with my boyfriend. I phoned him and told all things that happened to me. He also loved me very much. At first he wasn’t ready to leave me but he understood a bit later that I love someone and I could be happy with someone. At that time I was little bit sad because I broke someone’s heart to mend my heart but I promised him that you’ll be my true friend for ever and I’ll be helping you and shall not forget whole my life.
Well then one day again Alex phoned me and said that I needed to meet you.
We choose the Best Restaurant of our state for the Dating and I was so excited that for the first time I am going date with coolest and was also famous actor Alex. The night when he phoned me I was happy and I choose a best cloth that suits me and bought it from the mall and be almost ready to go for the dating.
Next day I began to be ready for tonight dating. The time came to go for dating and I went to the place where we decided yesterday to go. As I reached restaurant and went inside I didn’t see a single person except him.
He booked the whole restaurant only for me, I thought. As he saw me he hastily came to me to welcome me. We really had a great time there. We had a delicious food and talk as well. I really enjoyed that night. It was the biggest and memorable day of my life.
From that day we were lovers and our relationship bond was very strong as well.
Here I am now stepping in 30 and we still love each other very much and we are planning to marry in next six months.
The Wedding Vows
“When I was six years old I met him in the playground and he came up to me with a daisy, just the one, and knelt on both knees and asked me to marry him. So I pushed him over then ran away. Two days later he came over and asked if he could play cops and robbers with me and from that day on we played everyday.
At 11 on my first day of Secondary school I was so nervous but at lunch time he came to find me, and we sat down and ate lunch together. We did this everyday for an entire year. You were the first person I told about everything, about my crushes, about my lessons and about all the people I hated, and when I was 13 and thought I was the only one who had never been kissed, you offered to show me how, and by the tree in your backgarden we shared our first kiss.
At 15 we went to our first proper house party, and I got drunk. Even though I made a fool of myself you were there to help me stand strong. You didnt judge and you didnt make fun.
Over the next year we began to seperate, made different friends. I got my first serious boyfriend and you went through quite a few girlfriends. And then it got to May and that meant the prom. Everything had been arranged, I’d been getting my outfit for months and then the day before I found out my boyfriend had cheated on me. The first person I turned to was you. You turned up at my door with a bouquet of roses and a vintage 1950′s car.
I laughed that night
I cried that night
We had three glorious yrs together, when everyday I would smile. Even on the last when your mother stood up, in the church infornt of your coffin and began reading from your diary:
“I saw you when I was six stood by the bench in a blue checked dress and daisy shoes and I needed to give an other daisy just because…. Becuase i loved you from that day on”
His wedding vows written the day after prom, that I will never get to hear.”
Beauty Lies In The Eye Of The Beholder
She was not beautiful.
Nothing about her was extraordinary.
Nothing about her made her stand out in a crowd.
She grew up in a family of six.
The eldest, she learnt responsibility at an early age.
As she grew stronger, and brighter,
She instilled a sort of light cheer to whomever she met.
She was not beautiful.
But she made others feel beautiful about themselves.
She meets a rebel boy who thinks he’s all man.
Befriending him, she teaches him how to read,
A little boost the man needed to go to college.
They became friends fast and she fell,
Fast in love with her rugged, handsome student.
The “man” then finds himself in a dilemma
He soon found himself in love with a girl.
A girl so beautiful, she turned even the grouchiest men’s head.
Her hair was a halo of light around her,
Her eyes the bluest blue of ocean.
Like an angel he tells his tutor
Like a beautiful angel.
The girl swallows a lump at her throat
She was not beautiful
She did not possess the heart of the one she loved
But she did not care.
As long as he was happy,
She would be or so she tried to.
She helped him write the most beautiful letter to his angel
All the time envisioning that it was she herself
Receiving those very letters.
And so the girl helped him choose the right words,
Buy the right gifts for his angel
His angel brought him much joy
And much pain to the girl who cried behind her smiles.
But that never stopped her from giving more
Than she will ever receive.
Then one day, all hell broke loose
The angel he loved left him for another man,
A richer, more successful man.
The boy was stunned
He was so hurt he did not speak for days
The girl went to him
He cried on her shoulder and she cried with him
He hurt and so did she.
Time went by.
And so the wounds heal.
The boy realizes something about his friend/tutor
He never realized before.
How her laughter sounded heavenly
Or how her smiles brightened up the darkest days.
Or simply how beautiful, yes beautiful she looked to him!
Beautiful.
This plain, simple girl was beautiful to him.
And he began to fall.
Fall so in love with this beautiful girl.
On one day, he picked up all his courage to see her.
He walked to her house, nervous ad fidgeting.
Running his thoughts over and over in his head.
He was going to tell her how beautiful she was to him.
He was going to tell her how wonderfully n love he was with her.
He knocked.
No one was home.
The next day he found out,
The beautiful girl he fell in love with had brain aneurysm
That put her into a coma.
The doctors were grim and the family decided to let her go.
One final time he got to see her.
He held her hand.
He stroked her hair,
And he cried for this beautiful girl.
He cried for he will never see her smile
Or hear her speak his name
He cried.
But it was too late.
The beautiful girl was buried and the heavens broke out
In a beautiful spring shower, a cry for their loss.
She was the most beautiful girl in the world.
Look around you.
Aren’t there a lot of plain faces?
Take a good look
A real good look or you might miss out
On that beautiful person.
Forever.
IQ Question
You have 12 black socks and 12 white socks mixed up in a drawer. It’s early in the morning and you don’t have any light to see the colors. How many socks must you pull out (blindly) to be sure of getting a matching pair?
The Salty Coffee
He met her at a party. She was so outstanding, many guys chasing after her, while he was so normal, nobody paid attention to him.
At the end of the party, he invited her to have coffee with him, she was surprised but due to being polite, she promised. They sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything, she felt uncomfortable, and she thought to herself, “Please, let me go home…”
Suddenly he asked the waiter, “Would you please give me some salt? I’d like to put it in my coffee.” Everybody stared at him, so strange! His face turned red but still, he put the salt in his coffee and drank it. She asked him curiously, “Why you have this hobby?” He replied, “When I was a little boy, I lived near the sea, I liked playing in the sea, I could feel the taste of the sea, just like the taste of the salty coffee. Now every time I have the salty coffee, I always think of my childhood, think of my hometown, I miss my hometown so much, I miss my parents who are still living there.” While saying that tears filled his eyes. She was deeply touched. That’s his true feeling, from the bottom of his heart. A man who can tell out his homesickness, he must be a man who loves home, cares about home, has responsibility of home… Then she also started to speak, spoke about her faraway hometown, her childhood, her family.
That was a really nice talk, also a beautiful beginning of their story. They continued to date. She found that actually he was a man who meets all her demands; he had tolerance, was kind hearted, warm, careful. He was such a good person but she almost missed him! Thanks to his salty coffee! Then the story was just like every beautiful love story, the princess married to the prince, and then they were living the happy life… And, every time she made coffee for him, she put some salt in the coffee, as she knew that’s the way he liked it.
After 40 years, he passed away, left her a letter which said, “My dearest, please forgive me, forgive my whole life’s lie. This was the only lie I said to you—the salty coffee. Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous at that time, actually I wanted some sugar, but I said salt. It was hard for me to change so I just went ahead. I never thought that could be the start of our communication! I tried to tell you the truth many times in my life, but I was too afraid to do that, as I have promised not to lie to you for anything… Now I’m dying, I afraid of nothing so I tell you the truth, I don’t like the salty coffee, what a strange bad taste… But I have had the salty coffee for my whole life! Since I knew you, I never feel sorry for anything I do for you. Having you with me is my biggest happiness for my whole life. If I can live for the second time, still want to know you and have you for my whole life, even though I have to drink the salty coffee again.”
Her tears made the letter totally wet. Someday, someone asked her, “What’s the taste of salty coffee?” She replied, “It’s sweet.”
Love is not to forget but to forgive, not to see but understand, not to hear but to listen, not to let go but HOLD ON!!!!
The CD Boy
A boy walked into a CD store and saw a girl behind the counter.
She smiled and he thought it was the most beautiful smile he has ever seen before and wanted to kiss her right there.
He said “Uh… Yeah… Umm… I would like to buy a CD.” He picked one out and gave her money for it.
“Would you like me to wrap it for you?” she asked, smiling her cute smile again.
He nodded and she went to the back.
She came back with the wrapped CD and gave it to him. He took it and walked out of the store. He went home and from then on, he went to that store everyday and bought a CD, and she wrapped it for him. He took the CD home and put it in his closet. He was still too shy to ask her out and he really wanted to but he couldn’t. His mother found out about this and told him to just ask her.
So the next day, he took all his courage and went to the store. He bought a CD like he did everyday and once again she went to the back of the store and came back with it wrapped. He took it and when she wasn’t looking, he left his phone number on the desk and ran out…
!!!RRRRRING!!!
The mother picked up the phone and said, “Hello?”
It was the girl!!! She asked for the boy and the mother started to cry and said, “You don’t know? He passed away yesterday…
” The line was quiet except for the cries of the boy’s mother. Later in the day. The mother went into the boy’s room because she wanted to remember him. She thought she would start by looking at his clothes. So she opened the closet. She was face to face with piles and piles and piles of unopened CDs. She was surprised to find all those CDs and she picked one up and sat down on the bed and she started to open one.
Inside, there was a CD and as she took it out of the wrapper, out fell a piece of paper. The mother picked it up and started to read it.
It said: Hi… I think you are really cute. Do you wanna go out with me? Love, Jacelyn
The mother opened another CD…
Again there was a piece of paper. It said: Hi… I think you are really cute. Do you wanna go out with me? Love, Jacelyn
Dream Mate
Years ago I asked God to send me a wife, for the Bible says “you have not because you ask not“. I told the Lord not just that I wanted a wife but even explained to him the kind of wife I was looking for.
I told him I wanted someone who is kind, tender, gentle, compassionate, loving, sincere, peaceful, generous, affectionate, understanding, passionate, warm, intelligent, humorous, sensual, and trustful. I even mentioned things I wanted her to be physically. And as time passed, I would add more things to this list of my heart desire for a wife.
Then one night in prayer God spoke to my heart and said… “Son I can not give you what you’ve asked me for.“ I said, “Why not Lord?“ He replied, “For I am a just God and a God of righteousness and all I do is just and right.“ I said, “Lord, I don’t understand why I cannot have what I have asked you for.“ He replied, “Then I will explain. It would not be just and right for me to grant to you your wish for I cannot give unto you something that you are not yourself. It would not be fair for me to grant unto you a person that is loving if you can sometimes be hateful, or someone that is kind if you can also be mean, someone that is a forgiver and yet you can still carry a grudge, someone that is sensitive and you are yet so insensitive… etc.
He said unto me, “Instead of wasting time trying to find someone or hoping that I will give you someone with all these qualities you seek, you should rather allow me to take this time to allow you to become all it is that you are looking for. For I cannot give to you that which you are not.“ “And if you allow me to work up on your spirit and to shape and mold your heart as I choose then when you see the one I have for you, you will be able to say like Adam said… “She is bone of my bone and she is flesh of my flesh“ for you will see yourself in her for you both will be one flesh.“
Keep this in mind.
This is for all: the recently married;
the ones who have been married;
the soon to get married;
and the ones that are still looking.
God made woman from man’s rib — not from his head to top him, nor from his feet to be walked upon; but from his side to be his partner in life, from under his arm to be protected by him, and from near his heart to be loved by him. Whether or not you believe in God, much of the above still applies.
