Truth of Love
"It hurts to love someone and not to be loved in return, but what is the most painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let the person know how you feel."

"The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own.You don't blame them on your mother,the ecology or the president.You realize that you control your own destiny." - Psychologist Albert Ellis
A freshman at his first collegiate football practice broke away for an eighty-yard touchdown.His teammates looked at him in amazement and disbelief.His coach shouted,"Kid you're going to have quite a future around here".Later, his excited beautiful girlfriend kissed him.His life at that moment was completely satisfying .His future was bright!
Yet, nothing in that young man's life measured up to that football moment.He never made it to the 'big time' as everyone thought he would:his business career wasn't successful, his marriage went sour, and his life dragged.The pain of failures became even greater when he reflected on that perfect football day.That eighty yards was bitter sweet in his mind; it was pleasant, but in the past.
Many of us waste our lives struggling to either recapture moments we experienced in the past or stumble on to an elusive perfect future.
But, waiting expectantly for something to appear around the corner is merely reacting to life.Take responsibility for your thoughts and your actions and grasp the future you want for yourself.One cannot sit around and wait for a life to find you; one have to go and get it.
