What have I done?

Why did I forget the fire of love that burned upon my heart?

Why did I listen to the world that knew nothing about true love?

Quench not love when you find it.

Recognize it for what it's really worth,

and not according to what others say.

My greatest moments of love

are those moments

I did not even expect,

when I was moved to tears

by a love

that seeketh

and findeth

me.

Agnes { Dear Joyce, Hi! I have been an avid reader of your blog about a year an a half ago when I too have been experiencing heartbreak and burden in my life. Your words have really been a pat on my shoulder and a hug rolled in one. I am now in a year long relationship and life has been treating me well. It is not a perfect relationship, we do have our shares of ups and downs but we come out of each as a better individual and we grow and learn together through those past mistakes. I just... } – Feb 05, 3:53 PM

He doesn't care whether we be in public places like malls, offices etc he just feels he needs to, in his own terms, "vent out his spleen". He had called me many things and often times says that i am stupid. He said i needed to reform, and that the only way was "his way". for the past year i have been doing all he asks of me, i am not allowed to talk to my friends, neither am... } – Jan 24, 9:16 AM
