Discrete on purpose

So many questions and so many risks. Should I dare? I'm so scared. I've wanted this for a long time. But is it me that wants this? Should I tell her? Should I wait? What if it's too late? But what is too late? I want it to happen. But is it up to me? Do I really want it up to me?

Does she even know? I don't think she does. I wonder what she would say...

Everytime I talk to her it feels like time is running a race. I know I can make her happy. But if it isn't Your plan, then I want nothing to do with it.

God, is THIS what you want? I'm on your clock.

  • 'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.

    The way to love anything is to realize that it might be lost.

    It is better to have loved and lost than never to have lost at all.

    I was never one to patiently pick up broken fragments and glue them together again and tell myself that the mended whole was as good as new. What is broken is broken -- and I'd rather remember it as it was at its best than mend it and see the broken places as long as I lived.

    The hottest love has the coldest end.

    "Love is blind, but friendship closes its eyes."

    "Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward together in the same direction."

    "True love is like ghosts, which everybody talks about and few have seen."

    "Spread love everywhere you go: first of all in your own house. Give love to your children, to your wife or husband, to a next door neighbor... Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness; kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile, kindness in your warm greeting."
    -Mother Theresa

    "He who loves 50 people has 50 woes; he who loves no one has no woes."
    -Buddha

    "Love is like playing the piano. First you must learn to play by the rules, then you must forget the rules and play from your heart."
    -Unknown

    "If you would be loved, love and be lovable."
    -Benjamin Franklin

    "Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a teardrop." -- Anonymous

    Romantic love is an illusion. Most of us discover this truth at the end of a love affair or else when the sweet emotions of love lead us into marriage and then turn down their flames.
    * Thomas Moore

    There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness.
    * Friedrich Nietzsche

    There is no remedy for love but to love more.
    * Henry David Thoreau

    "My father always used to say that when you die, if you've got five real friends, then you've had a great life."
    -Lee Iacocca

    "Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?"
    -Abraham Lincoln

    "You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you."
    -Dale Carnegie

    "You can hardly make a friend in a year, but you can easily offend one in an hour." -- Chinese Proverb

    "It is the friends that you can call at 4 A.M. that matter." -- Marlene Dietrich

    "God save me from my friends - I can protect myself from my enemies." -- Proverb

    "Friends are God's way of apologizing to us for our families." -- Unknown

    "Nine-tenths of the people were created so you would want to be with the other tenth." -- Horace Walpole

    "A friend can tell you things you don't want to tell yourself." -- Frances Ward Weller

    It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.
    * Ralph Waldo Emerson

    The only way to have a friend is to be one.
    * Ralph Waldo Emerson

    Real friendship is shown in times of trouble;
    prosperity is full of friends.
    * Euripedes

    No man can be happy without a friend, nor be sure of his friend till he is unhappy.
    * Thomas Fuller

    Your friend is the man who knows all about you, and still likes you.
    * Elbert Hubbard

    It's no good trying to keep up old friendships. It's painful for both sides. The fact is, one grows out of people, and the only thing is to face it.
    * W. Somerset Maugham

    We know our friends by their defects rather than by their merits.
    * W. Somerset Maugham

    The proper office of a friend is to side with you when you are in the wrong. Nearly anybody will side with you when you are in the right.
    * Mark Twain
