Love Notes...

...by Lah (not Joe d' Mango's)



Found this Big Heart Love Notes outside the Singapore Art Museum.
Took a picture of it just in time for Valentine's Day.
How crazy can people get because of love, a
h?


Nearly everyone awaits for the star (star idea is from the song *Waiting for a Star to Fall) or the right person to spend forever with. All of us encounter people who may be potential someone. We bump into someone who’s good looking - who easily attracts anyone. We find ourselves experiencing giddy feeling whenever this good looking person pays attention to us. We also get to meet intelligent and interesting people because of our work and affiliations. It gives us opportunity to learn and be amazed by their intelligence. However, the giddy feeling, learning, and amazement they give don’t make them the ‘star’ after all.

But the right person (the ‘star’) is someone who can give us an uncanny feeling. The star is someone you can impress effortlessly. The right person to spend forever with is:


someone who could walk you through life;
a person who serves as mirror to show your failures and incompetence
while helping you improve;

someone who's in bliss to in bliss to see you develop and become successful;

a person who listens to your life's stories and
shares his/her insights as well as own stories;

someone who argues if he/she thinks you're on the wrong side
but understands (not necessarily accepts) your explanations;

and

a person who protects you from possible harm but
allows you to explore life and be adventurous.


In a more figurative sense the star is:


someone who can brighten your day effortlessly;
a person who can give you a smile coming from within;

someone who just don’t make you feel giddy but
make you feel loved and appreciated;
and
someone who talks, listens, and understands through his heart.


* Waiting for a Star to Fall is a song performed by Boy meets Girl in the late 80's.
It's surprising that this song was originally written for Whitney Houston
