what is life without love?
what is life without love?….empty…meaningless. it is true that love makes the world go ’round. life is pointless without love. no one ever goes through life without ever experiencing love. there are an infinite number of ways to show and feel love.
but no matter how true and pure love is, why does it always entail pain?
the greatest feeling in the world is love…but it is also capable of giving you the worst feeling ever. the happiest moments of our lives are always moments of great, deep and true love…wedding’s, child-birth, etc. but the most painful moments are always connected to love as well…death, separation, betrayal, etc. therefore, we can say that with love always comes pain…and also, there cannot be pain if there is not love first.
this sometimes makes me think that i’d rather not love…because loving would mean experiencing pain. when we love, we feel great happiness…bliss. but, at the same time, we also experience pain. because we cannot feel any hurt from someone we do not love. and at the same time, we can only get happiness from someone we truly love.
so what are we to do? live life according to the phrases:
- “it is better to have loved & lost than to not have loved at all”
- “u can never know the sweet until u taste the sour”
- “suck in the experience, if it hurts, then it’s probably worth it”
or save ourselves & simply not love at all?
personally, i think love is worth all the pain, hurt & s*#t. we live but once…to hell with getting hurt! to hell with the pain & hurt! it’s all worth it! it is those bittersweet moments and moments of bliss that make life worth living…so don’t be afraid, dont hold back, take the plunge!
IF U HAVEN’T LOVED, U HAVEN’T LIVED AT ALL…

when you love, you love the good and the bad that come with it…it’s the whole package.

Hello Toni!
Ur right…no matter how great a love is…not all ended with happy endings…all we have to do is to think about it as one of life’s biggest challenges…that in the end…we cud have the one really destined for us!!!

yeah i strongly agree… but life must go on…. masakit mahirap at maraming tanong na di mawala wala sa isip… na ang hirap hirap sagutin…..
try to hear Without you by Charlie Wilson….
this is one of my favorite song
i can relate so much to this song… medyo nakaka relieve din siguro kung bibilangin mga 1,000 times o more ko na play sa cd mp3 ko sa pc… at siguro ito ang ikakasira ng ipod ko kasi overplayed hihihi… Godbless

i agree. no matter how many times we get hurt, no matter how many times we tell ourselves we will stop falling in love because we dont want to feel pain, eventually, when someone we think worth loving passes by, we take the plunge! and the plunge makes us happy.

you look really great.
hope you’ll find the right one. the real one. the one really suited for you. and the one who’ll love you unconditionally. he isn’t the right one. tell us more about yourself, it’s really nice to know you’re coping really fast despite all the traumas and problems. yep, love is the answer. 
goodluck!

hi!
I agree with you no matter how much we try to make the relationship work it seems that it isn’t enough assurance that it will last for eternity. My friend send me this message that sometimes love may leave us like a shattered glass but keep in mind that there is someone who’ll be willing to pick up the pieces so that you could be whole again. Anyway its not your lost but his, you’re more beautiful and sexier than her trying hard maging sexy kahit di naman diba!(you know who am i talking about) she looks like your yaya!!!! promise!!! im just being honest kung kagandahan siya bakit si ex lang ang nanligaw sa kanya? hayaan mo na siya kawawa naman siya wala siyang ibang suitor kaya pati kaibigan kinatalo ng lola!!!!!!!!!!

yah i strongly agree with what you said…
Love conquers all no matter how hard and difficult it is but it’s worthy. Don’t be afraid tolove just because you’re afraid to get hurt…..trully LOVE is the greatest gift of all….without love..life is meaningless…LOVE brought us many good things in life so enjoy it and set it free…
Just always remember that LOVE without pain is not love at all…..coz you will only knew that you’re inlove when you get hurt and ever lasting happiness follows after the pain.
Thanks Toni for sharing us your wisdom and just wanna wish you well. I know, somehow your experiencing heartaches at this moment but i know you’re a fighter and you’ll able to overcome all these trials. God has a reason why all these things are happening to you but i know one day He’ll give you your reward, an everlasting happiness that you trully deserve. Goodluck to your career and always remember that even though you don’t know me, i will keep on supporting you. Godbless….Ms. Froz.”Gem”

it always like that sometimes,you have to expirience the pain if your inlove!it doesnt have to be happy all the time esp. when your relationship is just starting but sometimes the hardest part is accepting that no matter how long you had been together,… still it ddnt work!sadly!..
but thats life in order for u to be strong u have to expirience that!
i know your strong now toni keep it up!take care always!
