It is always tedious when someone tells you that if you don't stop crying, they will give you something to cry about, because if you are crying then you already have something to cry about, and so there is no reason for them to give you anything additional to cry about, thank you very much.

- Lemony Snicket

We lended our heavy hearts, 
motors with broken parts, 
we had a deck of cards it was a start. 
We’d sit out in the sun, 
and wait for our skin to turn, 
you would ask for truth, 
and I would look for something to burn. 
Oh we walked in a hallowed place back then 
the edge of Dublin, the edge of May and June. 
Oh to live in a paper house again, 
where we grew by the light of the moon. 
Often we took the train, 
the sky pacing white to grey, 
when you or I would leave 
and the other would stay. 
We were all that we had 
and breathed in each others words, 
I would ask for truth and 
you’d look for something to burn. 
Oh we walked in a hallowed place back then 
the edge of Dublin, the edge of May and June. 
Oh to live in a paper house again, 
where we grew by the light of the moon. 
You were much younger then, 
younger than I am now, 
I still keep as much an eye as the wires allow, 
I still keep as much an eye as the wires allow. 
Oh we walked in a hallowed place back then 
the edge of Dublin, the edge of May and June. 
Oh to live in a paper house again, 
where we grew by the light of the moon. 
Oh you know what you are to me 
and you know you will always be.

- Lisa Hannigan

Crazy, I'm crazy for feeling so lonely
I'm crazy, crazy for feeling so blue
I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday you'd leave me for somebody new
Worry, why do I let myself worry?
Wond'ring what in the world did I do?
Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for trying and crazy for crying
And I'm crazy for loving you
Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for trying and crazy for crying
And I'm crazy for loving you.

Strange Facts - Aquarius

#12 Instant distrust

It doesn't take much to lose the trust and respect of an aquarius. When offended, betrayed, or taken advantage of, an aquarius will experience an immediate change in how he or she feels towards the other person.

#11 Fierce independence

Aquarians are resourceful, self-sufficient individuals who dislike following the masses, preferring to carve a path of their own.

#10 Crazy stupid love

When in love, an aquarius simply can't hide it. Friends and family can expect to know all about it when it occurs. Don't be surprised when your aquarian friends talk endlessly about their lovers!

#9 A powerful mind

Aquarians are known for their ability to see things in a way that others can't or don't even think to. They have an uncanny and unique sense of analysis, which makes them great out-of-the-box thinkers.

#8 Know-it-all

It's not uncommon for an aquarius to possess a know-it-all attitude -- it's in the nature of an aquarius to feel that way. So don't be put off when the aquarius in your life seems to think he or she knows better.

#7 Playing pretend

When aquarians aren't in the mood for social conversation or interaction, they will disguise this fact by appearing aloof and distant. Don't be discouraged by this behavior -- the antisocial feelings will pass. Just give them some room!

#6 Live and learn

Though they may sometimes exhibit vengeful feelings when neglected or betrayed, aquarians typically get over difficulties or bad feelings rather quickly. Holding on to grudges is not their pastime.

#5 Conditional loyalty

Aquarians are loyal and empathetic, but their loyalty sometimes has trouble withstanding the test of time and monotony. If you have the same problems over and over again, an aquarius friend may distance him or herself because they simply don't see another solution.

#4 Perfect match

Aquarius, libra, and gemini make up the trio of air signs that hold the strongest balance when in a relationship. A friendship or romantic relationship with either libra or gemini is considered to be a perfect match.

#3 Expression of love

Aquarians are full of love and dreams, but they just can't seem to figure out how to communicate their feelings to those they love. They know what they feel -- so don't be discouraged when an aquarius lover doesn't seem to be able to voice his or her love.

#2 A sharp tongue

Cruel words fill the mind of an aquarius, but they are only used when an aquarius feels deeply shattered by betrayal or neglect.

#1 Playing games

Aquarians are kind enough to let someone else win in a game, but if they detect that they are being taken advantage of, aquarians often show a vengeful side and make it their business to win every other game after that.

I watch the days rush by me like a riverI shouldn't wait, but I'm scared to touch the waterI let the phone ring, why won't you believe meI wait for silence, takes a lot not to answer
All I have to say isYou don't deserve me, you don't deserve meI'm finally walking awayCause you don't deserve me, and you're not worthy
And I won't let you pull me in'Cause I know you're gonna win(The war is over) but the war is over (The war is over)And I won't fight you anymoreI never been so sure(The war is over) cause the war is over
I used to let you paint a pretty pictureYou got me caught up with your "you're my girl forever"So I forgive you, it felt good when you hold meYeah you owned meNow you wish you had really known me
All I have to say is you don't deserve me, you don't deserve meI'm finally walking away, cause you only hurt meAnd you're not worthy
And I won't let you pull me in'Cause I know you're gonna win(The war is over) but the war is over (The war is over)And I won't fight you anymoreI've never been so sure(The war is over)
This is not my surrenderI'm not running for coverI'm right here, I know you see meBut your words no longer defeat meIn the night when you're lonelyYou remember how much you miss meSo you call, but I swearYou can try a million times, you'll get the same answer
All I have to say is you don't deserve me, you don't deserve meI'm finally walking away, 'cause you only hurt meAnd you're not worthy
And I won't let you pull me in'Cause I know you're gonna win(The war is over) but the war is over (The war is over)
The war is overThe war is overThe war is overThe war is overThe war is overThe war is overThe war is over
- Kelly Clarkson

Dear God,

I'm hurt. Please hold me.

Amen.

The broken pieces in front of you right now are a gift. You as a person, a valuable human being of worth are not far from repair, but you will have to do the work on yourself to pick up those pieces one by one. . . patiently.

- Carl Jung

True love is selfless love. We are concerned only for the other person. We tell them, “the door of my heart will always be open to you,whatever you do.” And we mean it. We just want them to be happy. True love is rare.”

- Ajahn Brahm

Because what was the point in crying when there was no one there to comfort you? And what was worse, when you couldn't even comfort yourself?

- City of Glass

Beyond the smile, there is a heart
A shattered heart, not able to mend.
Beyond the heart, there is a soul
A broken soul, not able to be free
Beyond the soul, there is a girl
A girl who carries a smile.

Whatever-ever-ver the struggle 
This is life you can always make it better

Cause you know what's deep 
And you know I'm kind

And in this crazy destination we'll have to, 
Go to...

You care for me 
So you know that I know, baby all the things that makes us grow 

Love and life keep on 
Searching bitterness 
Your heart and mine 

So now, now, now, now 
one more time, one more time you should 
One more time, one more time, you should 
Try again, and Try again you should 
Try again and Try again you should 
This is yours

- Hindi Zahra

I can't buy your love, don't even wanna try.
Sometimes the truth won't make you happy, still I'm not gonna lie.
But don't ever question if my heart beats only for you, it beats only for you.
I know i'm far from perfect, nothin' like your entourage
I can't grant you any wishes, I won't promise you the stars.
But don't ever question if my heart beats only for you, it beats only for you.
Cause when you've given up.
When no matter what you do it's never good enough.
When you never thought that it could ever get this tough,
Thats when you feel my kind of love.
And when you're crying out.
When you fall and then can't pick your happy off the ground
When the friends you thought you had haven't stuck around.
That's when you feel my kind of love.
You won't see me at the parties, I guess I'm just no fun.
I won't be turning up the radio singing "Baby You're The One".
But don't ever question if my heart beats only for you, it beats only for you.
I know sometimes I get angry, and I say what i don't mean.
I know I keep my heart protected, far away from my sleeve.
But don't ever question if my heart beats only for you, it beats only for you.
Cause when you've given up.
When no matter what you do it's never good enough.
When you never thought that it could ever get this tough,
Thats when you feel my kind of love.
And when you're crying out.
When you fall and then can't pick your 'happy' off the ground
When the friends you thought you had haven't stuck around.
That's when you feel my kind of love.
Cause when you've given up.
When no matter what you do it's never good enough.
When you never thought that it could ever get this tough,
Thats when you feel my kind of love.

I loved you once, I love you still.
Le amo una vez, Le amo todavía.

- philoism

"I love you but I'm not IN love with you." We have heard from so many people who were on either the sending or the receiving side of this message that we began to get curious about what was going on with them when they spoke those words. Some of the things that we heard them say about what they really meant but felt that they couldn't say were:

• I'm not enjoying our relationship any more and I don't really want to continue being in it.
  
• I don't think that we're a good fit.
  
  
• I think you're a nice person, but I'm holding out for someone with whom there will be no fading effect and things will be easy, fun and hot with us all the time.
  
  
• I'm beginning to notice that we have "issues," and I don't like where this is going.
  
  
• I want to get out before it gets too difficult to leave.
  
  
• I've met someone new, and I think that I'm falling in love with her/him.
  
  
• I'm having feelings that are uncomfortable and disturbing to me, and I think that you're causing them.
  
  
• You don't make me feel the way you used to.
  
  
• I want to slow/cool/wind down our relationship.
  
  
• I want out.

-- And these were just a few.
Not every relationship is meant to last forever, and more often than not, each partner may feel differently in regard to whether or not it's time to call it quits. But how do you know when it's really over and when the discomfort that you feel is an indicator that there's work to be done before you can upgrade your relationship to the next level? Knowing the difference between these two is crucial, but not necessarily obvious.
The impulse to get out can be strong when things (inevitably) get difficult in a relationship. There is an understandable tendency to rationalize this decision by telling ourselves that it's just not working anymore, rather than looking at some of the deeper causes for feelings of boredom, resentment or discomfort. The problem with leaving too soon is that that the love that you wanted to experience may be available on the other side of the next challenge, or the one after that.

"Love" is often another term for "infatuation," which literally means, "to be in a state of unreasonable and short-lived passion." The word "fatuous" means "deluded and self-deceiving." We are, when we are in a state of infatuation, quite literally "out of our minds" and our brains are drenched in hormones and chemicals like endorphins and oxytocin that produce irresistible sensations, feelings and urges. Fortunately, the experience of infatuation is temporary. The question has to do with how we deal with the inevitable let-down when that loving feeling is lost. One way is to look for someone else with whom you can recreate this experience. Some people are so in love with the feeling of falling in love (another term for infatuation) that they become serial lovers, sometimes in the hopes of finding that person with whom there will be no fading effect. (Not likely.) Some just decide that they are not the settling-down type. Then there is that small group that knows that infatuation is impermanent and that something even better than that awaits those who are willing to explore and investigate the deeper reaches of relationship: that which lies beyond sensory pleasure.

Unfortunately, there is no generic answer to the question "How do you know when to hang in there and when to cut your losses?" It is, however, a pretty safe bet that if you don't feel that you've given things your very best shot, then it's worth hanging in there a bit longer and making that extra effort. Athletes experience what they refer to as a "second wind," which often occurs after the point at which they feel that they are on the edge of depletion. Being in relationship, as many of us know from our own experience, is not unlike being an endurance athlete or a marathon runner. It may require the willingness to hang in there and go past the point where you feel like quitting and giving up in order to find the hidden strength or energy needed to finish the race.

Of course, there can be a time when it may be necessary to call it quits. When you've given your best, kept your focus on doing your own work and learned the lessons that your relationships has provided you, it could be time to consider the alternative. To do so at this point is not a matter of quitting, but rather letting go and grieving the loss.

When all of your flaws and all of my flaws
Are laid out one by one
A wonderful part of the mess that we made
We pick ourselves undone

All of your flaws and all of my flaws
They lie there hand in hand
Ones we've inherited, ones that we learned
They pass from man to man

There's a hole in my soul
I can't fill it I can't fill it
There's a hole in my soul
Can you fill it? Can you fill it?

You have always worn your flaws upon your sleeve
And I have always buried them deep beneath the ground
Dig them up; let's finish what we've started
Dig them up, so nothing's left unturned

All of your flaws and all of my flaws,
When they have been exhumed
We'll see that we need them to be who we are
Without them we'd be doomed

There's a hole in my soul
I can't fill it I can't fill it
There's a hole in my soul
Can you fill it? Can you fill it?

You have always worn your flaws upon your sleeve
And I have always buried them deep beneath the ground
Dig them up; let's finish what we've started
Dig them up, so nothing's left unturned

Oooooh
Oooooh

When all of your flaws
And all of my flaws are counted
When all of your flaws
And all of my flaws are counted

You have always worn your flaws upon your sleeve
And I have always buried them deep beneath the ground
Dig them up. Let's finish what we've started
Dig them up. So nothing's left unturned

Oooooh
Oooooh

All of your flaws and all of my flaws
Are laid out one by one
Look at the wonderful mess that we made
We pick ourselves undone

Loosen up and lose your mind

You never know what you could find on the other side.

A hundred thousand butterflies

Floating in the orange skies above my head.

I wander lonely as a cloud

Floating high above the ground with aeroplanes.

I hear the sound of hummingbirds

The sweetest sound I've ever heard, I can't describe.

Oh oh, I'm dreaming up a world with you

Oh oh, and all the things that we could do

Feeling like a plastic bag

Spinning 'round but slowly going nowhere fast.

Waterfalls inside my eyes

Am I on the other side, am I dreaming?

Holding on to a dolphin's fin

He helps me swim where I can't swim, he's friendly.

Loosen up and lose your mind

You never know what you could find on the other side.

Oh oh, I'm dreaming up a world with you

Oh oh, and all the things that we could do

Walking on a tightrope wire

Dropping poison pills of fire... hynoptised

Euphoria will be here soon

Turn the lights down, let the answers fill the room

Oh oh, I'm dreaming up a world with you

Oh oh, and all the things that we could do

A hundred thousand butterflies

Floating in the orange skies above my head.

Loosen up and lose your mind

You never know what you could find on the other side.

All of the things that made you feel better

You should write it all down and put it in a letter.

- Kodaline

Just before dawn comes
Sadness is on
Just one more moment
And I am leaving

Few words on a small note
While you are asleep
I can only steal away
That's how I tend to be

There are things I never get to say
The fear in me always in the way
A broken heart never mended
A hurt I can never forget

A little pearl
Locked in a shell
Can not explain
Each breath I'm taking
Can not find the means to an end

To move create one liberated moment
Beauty hides in the deep
Beauty hides in the deep
But it's so hard to find
Being wrapped up inside

I always wonder
Why don't I feel
What the world out there is like
And how I can fit in

I don't expect you to know me
Or how I lost all my dreams
When I can't even find myself
In the choices I made

I want you to know
I'll never forget you

-Doppler Effect

looking at the sea again
tides that rise and fall and then rise again
my love floats like a feather in the wind
catch me if you can
catch me
i don't even know what just i'd do if you found your way back through
clear all the cob webs that we weaved
making room for you and me
there's a road to my heart
follow signs through the ride
when you see all the lights glowing bright,
you know you found me
looking at the city escape
tiny little bubbles sparkling in the night
i don't think its ever too late
to cut the ties that bond us to our lies.
i don't even know what just i'd say if you found your way back
clear all the cob webs that we made
wishing for you to stay
there's a road to my heart
following signs through the ride
when you see all the lights glowing bright,
you know you found me
looking at the sea again
tides that rise and fall and then rise again
my love floats like a feather in the wind
catch me if you can
catch me

Every heart has a pain. Only the way of expressing it is different. Fools hide it in eyes, while the brilliant hide it in their smile.
