neither big nor small, simply love

reblogged from Paulo Coelho's blog:

"How can I know if my love is big enough?"

"Ask yourself if you give yourself fully or if you flee from your emotions, but do not ask yourself if your love is big enough, because love is neither big nor small, it is simply love. You cannot measure a feeling the way you measure a road. If you do that, you will start comparing your love with what others tell you of theirs or with your own expectations of love. That way, you will always be listening to some story, rather than pushing your emotions to their limits"

HIMYM thing

"You may think your only choice is to swallow your anger or to throw it on someone's face, but there's a third option. You can just let it go. And only when you do that is it really gone and you can move forward" - Ted Mosby

"The Cheerleader Effect is when a group of women seems hot, but only, as a group. Just like with cheerleaders. They seem hot, but take each one of them individually? Sled dogs." - Barney Stinson

you gotta love Ted and Barney

and btw, do not take this the wrong way. I'm not some kind of anti-cheerleader for quoting this. In fact, used to be one on junior high school. I just love Barney's outstanding theories.
