You say it right then, out loud. coz if you don't, the moment passes you by...

One of my favorite mottos, and probably one of my personal guiding principles, is : TRY IT ONCE. Because you won't really know what it's like if you don't give it a try. and oftentimes, if you let that moment pass, you won't get another chance to give it a try. I don't know. it's probably just me. But I'm not the one who lets an opportunity just pass me by. Unless I'm pretty sure that later on I'm not gonna regret not grabbing the chance when it came.

The idea of what could have been is a question that I cannot leave behind unanswered. As tiffany sings to us, still what could have been is better than what could never been at all. I totally agreed. at least you'll know if something feels right or not, if you'll try.

In the past, I've fallen victim to ignoring a lot of opportunities breezing in front of me. But throughout the years, I have learned. each day itself is presents countless opportunities for us: to become better, to meet new people, to find love. Opportunities to discover the world, to discover ourselves.

So what happens when the moment to take the chance has passed? I go on with my life hoping that when new opportunities come, I won't miss them the next time around. Most of the times, taking chances doesn't require much thinking. Trust your instincts. I do. I know that my instincts are always right, if I listen well to what my inner self is telling me. The answers to all our questions are all inside us. They've always been there. We just forgot how find them within us.

The passing the moment is like standing at a bus stop, you get there, waiting for your bus. sometimes, the bus takes too long to arrive. what do you do when you see another bus in another bus stop? i'd change bus stops. If i'm meant to ride my original bus, then somewhere down the journey, I might catch my bus in another bus stop. the thing is, the other bus is an opportunity that couldn't just allow to pass because if I did, I may never know what kind of experience I shall gain from that other bus.

Okay, I've been speaking in too much metaphors. So what am really trying to say? when love happens, one shouldn't think too much in deciding to give it a try. Just try and see what happens. If the relationship works, then good for you. if it doesn't, well at least you can tell yourself that you gave it a try and you found out that it just wasn't meant to be.

Every moment for love is precious. And when you let that moment to give love a try just pass by, there's never going to be another moment. they that love is sweeter the second time around. Ah, but the premise is that you previously gave love a try, only it didn't work the first time. That's an ocean of difference from grabbing the chance when the moment happened.

D-Angel: so very true and I guess I agree with not being too cautious but some have been hurt so badly they will certainly be gun-shy or try to weed out all potential suitors. thank you for your wisdom and special feelings --
