"Look to the past
And remember a smile
And maybe tonight
I can breathe for awhile
I'm not in the seat
I think I'm fallin' asleep
But then all that it means is
I'll always be dreaming of you"

“You only live twice or so it seems.
One life for yourself, and one for your dreams.
You drift through the years and life seems tame,
Till one dream appears and love is its name.
And love is a stranger who'll beckon you on,
Don't think of the danger or the stranger is gone.
This dream is for you, so pay the price.
Make one dream come true, you only live twice.”

"Love has no season
No beginning or end
No rhyme or reason
To the way the story bends
No way of knowing how
A broken heart mends
Still we keep falling
Time and time again."

Tips on how to stay young...... .
Researches have found that people who generally live longer do so partly because of good habits. Here, Dr Vernon Coleman and others provide some of the following good habits for longevity.
01. Laugh & have fun, don't be gloomy.
02. Let bygones be bygones. Dwelling on the past inflicts unnecessary stress.
03. Early to bed, early to rise, is healthy & wise.
04. Stay lean, being just 30% overweight is bad.
05. Keep learning, reading & socializing - an alert & active mind keeps brain cells healthy.
06. Keep working, doing something you like. Don't retire. It slows down your body.
07. Be the boss of your own life. Letting others push you around produces stress.
08. Too many pills ruin your body. Take just what you need.
09. Constantly alternating between weight gain & loss is bad.
10. Exercise, quit smoking & eat less fatty foods.
11. Do not worry about health or death, just get on with your life & enjoy it!

"If you love them,
hate them,
wish they would die
or
know that you would die
without them ...
it matters not.
Because once in your life,
whatever they were to the world
they become everything to you.
When you look them in the eyes,
traveling to
the depths of their souls
and
you say a million things
without trace of a sound,
you know that your own life
is inevitable consumed
within the rhythmic beatings
of her very heart.
You love her for a million reasons,
No paper would do it justice.
It is a thing not of the mind
but of the heart.
A feeling.
Only felt."
