to all the boys...
so i've been thinking about this on and off all day...
i realized today that i wouldn't want someone to love me with all his heart. i don't want to be responsible for a whole freakin heart. i mean, that's not the only reason but come on...that's a lot of weight on one's shoulders.
i guess, more importantly, i wouldn't want someone to love me with all his heart because i shouldn't be his all. i don't want to be the single most important thing in a person's life. i don't want to be the reason someone wakes up in the morning. i don't want to be the sole cause of a man's happiness. to me, that's sad. it's depressing for me to think that one person is behind all of that.
aside from family and friends, i believe a man's heart should also belong to his dreams, his goals, his ambitions, his beliefs. let your faith be one of the most important things in your life. let your job, your career and the motivation to succeed in it be the reason you wake up in the morning. let the satisfaction of accomplishing what you've set out to do be the cause of your happiness. live your life for yourself and fill your heart with all those different aspects of it that make it what you want. and if, along the way, i somehow fit into that life you've set up for yourself and if you still have a piece of heart left for me, then that's wonderful; i'll give a piece of my heart to you. i will not give my whole heart (i know better now) but i will give what i have.
and that's how it should be.
