Meeting someone new.
In many ways, we take people that we meet in person for granted. We just don't appreciate the value of meeting someone new and having them there beside you. And sometimes, we don't even have the chance to meet new people because we're so close-minded and enclosed in our own world that we don't accept new people in our life.
The thing is, someone new gives you a whole new beginning to a new story...a story that can have so many endings or that can continue forever. It could be a new friend, a new partner, a new loved one, a new colleague or just another face that you let go. But each and every one of these stories brings something new and unexpected to your life. Because meeting someone new is like tasting a new candy, you could love it, hate it or just don't care about it.
Life is so unexpected that even in the weirdest places you can find someone worth the wait. Because we're always waiting, waiting for that person who's going to make you happy or that person who's going to help you forget about your misery or even that person who's just there to support and love you. We're always waiting and expecting someone. But sometimes, when you're not even thinking about it, that person appears and you get caught off guard. In that split moment when you're not thinking and obsessing over some imaginary person that's going to change your life forever, he/she appears. That's the beauty of life. When you want it, you won't have it. But when you don't want it, you'll definitely have it. And when you have it, it's the most beautiful thing in the world.
It's funny how most of the time, people define your mood. When you have someone you love close to you, you feel invincible. But when you're alone, you feel wrecked, sad, and not even worthy of happiness. But happiness isn't supposed to lay in the hands of another, it's supposed to lay in our own hands. We decide how to feel, we decide to be happy or miserable. Or at least that's how its supposed to be.
But people always help and that's a good thing. Sometimes we just need someone that can make us feel better by understanding and supporting us. We are social beings by nature and we need other people to survive, if we didn't, we would live in total seclusion...and that's not the case.
Meeting someone new is like getting a new book...you can love it and continue reading, you can hate it and leave the book aside or you can read it just because you want to read and then forget about it. Any way, everything is always your choice.
P.S. Meeting you was a breath of fresh air and something I will always treasure.

El amor mata.
Y se supone que el amor te debería mantener en un estado interminable de felicidad y armonía. Pero no siempre es así. De hecho, el amor duele, amar duele. Duele porque a veces el amor no es correspondido, porque esa persona tal vez no es la indicada, pero tú, al estar ciegamente enamorado, no te das cuenta que no sera la única ni la última persona que conozcas. El amor te convierte en un individuo incapaz de ser objetivo y pensar en las consecuencias que conllevan ciertas acciones. El amor mata. El amor hiere. El amor deprime. Cuando esa persona no te ama, cuando no te mira como tu lo miras a él, cuando pasa por tu lado y no te mira con añoro, cuando al pensar en ti solo piensa en un amigo...allí, el amor duele más de lo que puedes imaginar.
Para algunos, ese momento de dolor vale la pena...cualquier cosa vale la pena porque el amor puede con todo y derrota toda tristeza. La satisfacción de amar y ser amado supera cualquier tristeza en el mundo. Es una visión romántica en la que el dolor es sumergido bajo la grandeza del amor. Pero no es real, a veces el dolor es tan grande que ni el amor puede curarlo. En ese momento es cuando tenemos que reaccionar y dejar atrás a esa persona que tanto amas pero que te causa más dolor del que puedes manejar.
