I always love reading quotes that have somehow had a small or large impact on who I am as a person. Either that, or they’ve pulled at a heart string. Here are some collected wisdom on how to live life.

“Be who you are and say what you feel, because people who mind don’t matter and the people who matter don’t mind.”

“Never settle for being someone’s something when you could be someone else’s everything.”

“You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You’re on your own, and you know what you know. And you will be the guy who’ll decide where you’ll go. Oh the places you’ll go.”

“Don’t cry because it ended, smile because it happened.”

And right now, I know that Somebody is thinking of me. Somebody is caring about me. Somebody wants to be with me. Somebody hopes I ain’t in trouble. Somebody wants to hold my hand. Somebody is praying for me. Somebody hopes everything turns out alright. Somebody wants me to be happy. Somebody wants to hug me. Somebody loves me. Somebody is thinking of me and smiling. Somebody wants to be my shoulder to cry on. Somebody wants to go out with me and have a lot of fun. Somebody wants me to believe in myself and know they believe in me. Somebody is playing a song that I love. Somebody is helping me without my knowledge. Somebody is my friend. Somebody misses me more than I know. Somebody is waiting for me.

Can you be my Somebody?

    “Never settle for being someone’s something when you could be someone else’s everything.”

    - this is oh so true! before i got married with Thomas i had this relationship that made me think that i was just a “something” … tried very hard to be his everything to no avail … the hands of faith and destiny eventually brought me to someone who thinks i’m everything …

    - tito k you’re one person who i think any girl would be lucky to have … keep the faith … who knows maybe the waiting game is soon over :)

    I like that one too. Isn’t it rewarding when someone puts their arms around you? It makes me sick to think that somebody might come when my eyes are closed.

    Hello! The Queer Chef pimped me here!

    I’ve always thought that there is sombody for me, but it’s unlikely that I would find him at some random place like a subway or something. I don’t know, I feel it’s going to happen any day from now.

    Gawd I hate it when I sounded bitter.

    Do you think it’s worth waiting? I keep saying these words. I used to pretend that someone were just around the corner, down the hall or in the next shop over. I pictured that somebody’s face when I looked at street, the bus, the subways, even at the bar, people passing behind me but I just can’t see that somebody even in my dreams.

    Thanks for adding some thoughts and for visiting, empress.

    I truly hope so, ice. I am those few who always seem in control of my life, my feeling hides in the shadows of my heart but I know it’s always there, waiting for me and I’m wishing for that special someone.

    I’ll try to consider putting Sarah M next time, I love her song “Angel”. Thanks for visiting.

    me? this is indeed a very nice post…we all dream and long for that “somebody” :) i’m craving for some ice cream and coffee…hmmmm…ice cream float perhaps?

    how was your weekend K?

  10. Wavatar K on 05.09.2006 at 16:45 Post reply

    My weekend was nothing but a sad one. If you didn’t read my previous post yet, that was it. Life is normal for me I guess, because I can cry, I can laugh and I’m heart broken - at times, my own stories may lead me to think more deeply about my own past, my secrets and fears.

    Well no ice cream in my fridge, been craving for a decent meal but expectedly, I don’t have someone to share a decent time with. Thanks for the virtual ice cream. Is that a mango flavour?

  11. Wavatar Dicey on 05.09.2006 at 16:46 Post reply

    Oh boy, I could also go for some ice cream.
    I believe I have found my “somebody” …. except when that somebody becomes the somebody who reminds me that I have eaten 2 chocolate bars already.

  12. Wavatar K on 05.09.2006 at 18:02 Post reply

    And never ever let the ice cream drip into your sofa or “lo-kung” will give you the wtf face look again. Hahaha, jokies. :lol:

    when i was reading empress maruja’s comment i just remembered something:

    - few weeks after i broke up with my ex i remembered telling my friends that i’ll be getting married next year and he’ll be foreigner … just felt it in me … they were teasing me that it’s so far fetched since i wasnt in a relationship … but true enough the next year i did get married and he’s a foreigner!

    - to empress maruja: i believe in what your feeling … and hopefully congratulations would be in order in the near future :)

    Alam ko na kung bakit sa chef ka napunta - Thomas cooks you nice food while you sit and relax at the pool. Maghugas ka naman ng pinggan anoh? Jokies. :mrgreen:

    i remember depeche mode’s song again…

    sorry, k, i’m already taken! :P there will be a time and place for it. be patient. :)

  16. Wavatar K on 05.09.2006 at 23:00 Post reply

    That’s a great song Sir Jep. Well, in a case like this I’ll get away with it… aaaahhhhh…. :razz:
    I need more picture reading at your blog. Sorry for the lack of bloghopping these days.

    We all have the right time and the right place for that somebody. That somebody could come anytime now, tomorrow or in the future. Take it one step at a time. Don’t rush things if they were never meant to be rushed. You’re such a great person K! I know that there will be someone for you out there… Don’t give up.

  18. Wavatar K on 06.09.2006 at 03:37 Post reply

    You’re such a great person K!

    You really think so? Prove me right. Thanks tho JV, it enlightens me up. Here’s a nice quote: “For everything you have missed, you have gained something else, and for everything you gain, you lose something else.”

    I guess it makes life balance.

    i think we all have numerous somebodies to take care of different aspects of our lives and the headaches come only when you seek for that one somebody who will fill all the roles at once =(

  20. Wavatar K on 07.09.2006 at 17:04 Post reply

    I have somebody that I look at but never really there. Or maybe that Somebody is in the coffee shop, that I walk right by every day, I should probably just keep on lookin and buy the same coffee everyday.
