Motivated to keep on gravitating
to higher heights instead of facing self-deprecation
Negativity can't hold me down, hear what I'm sayin?
Got endless love as my motivation
Love for me and love for you
love for all in life that's true
love for the old, love for the new
love for my dreams and reality too
Love what is given and love what's received
love no expectations resulting from my deeds
just loving life is all that I need
to keep me motivated from here to eternity
anywho, i think all people are generally only known at the surface for the most part - some people will get you (eventually) and some won't ever get you no matter how hard you try. the only thing is determining who is who. and then, after you figure that out, you gotta figure whether the who is who matters or not. ^_^
"If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."
-1 Corinthians 13
A wittle hole, sometimes linty, sometimes oval, sometimes squinty, and sometimes, it's even clean and minty! ^_~
'''Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these.''' - Jesus (Mark 12: 30-31)
As I take it, Love is the only thing that matters in the world... Love God = Be Spiritual, believe that there is a cause beyond all causes... Love your neighbor = love one another, your family, friends, enemies, etc. To love is to live and to live is to love.

"I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naïve or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman." - Anaïs Nin
