Built to Last – Melee

Published on October 6, 2009 in love and movies. 0 Comments Tags: , .

My all time favorite song. I can listen to it on repeat for many many many times. So many, it becomes uncountable. A song that means a lot. The lyrics are absolutely awesome. Gotta believe that true love does exist; real and all good. There is this special someone. Yes, there is.  Someday, the “someone’s someone” will happen, holding hands and acknowledging in public. Let’s see if time will allow it to happen.

Enjoy the song.

I’ve looked for love in stranger places,
but never found someone like you.
Someone whose smile makes me feel I’ve been holding back,
and now there’s nothing I can’t do.

‘Cause this is real, and this is good.
It warms the inside just like it should,
but most of all it’s built to last.

All of our friends saw from the start.
So why didn’t we believe it too?
Whoa yeah, now look where we are.
You’re in my heart now.
And there’s no escaping it for you.

‘Cause this is real, and this is good.
It warms the inside just like it should,
but most of all it’s built to last.

Walking on the hills that night with those fireworks and candlelight
You and I were made to get love right

‘Cause this is real, and this is good.
It warms the inside just like it should,
but most of all it’s built to last.

‘Cause you are the sun in my universe,
considered the best when we’ve felt the worst
and most of all it’s built to last.

risking it all

What if she hurt me? What if she left me? What if she died? It’d have been the end of me. So I cut her short, before she ever could. And you know what? It was the biggest mistake I have ever made. And you are making the same mistake right now and I’ll be God damned if I’m gonna sit by and watch. You have to risk love Sandra, risk it. I didn’t. Look at me. I’m an empty, lonely, ghost of a man. It doesn’t mean you’re never gonna get hurt. But I guarantee you this; any pain that you feel, will never, ever compare to the regret that comes from walking away from love. For some who has felt a lot of both, trust me; pain — beats regret everyday of the week and twice on Sunday. Don’t run away. Don’t do it.

Connor Mead (Matthew McConaughey), Ghosts of Girlfriends Past

I just finished watching this movie yesterday. I bawled really badly when Connor talks about risking the chance of getting hurt for love (as written above).

Love does hurt, doesn’t it? It is supposed to be a happy thing, I know. If you open your heart up 100%, you risk your heart being hurt so badly, you think you’re never gonna be able to recover from the pain and agony you’ve gone through. But, if you’re cautious about loving someone, you’re not giving him all that you’ve got. You’re not loving him 100%. What good does it do then?

The things one would sacrifice for love comes in different shapes and sizes. But it doesn’t matter. What’s more important is if one is willing to take the risk of pain to experience what is deemed to be the most fascinating and beautiful thing that can ever happen to the humankind.

Sometimes, it really hurts. But yea, I’d rather feel the pain than never experience love and live to regret for the rest of my life.

he’s just not that into you — AGAIN

Yes, I read the book. I’ve even written a short review about it. And yes, I bought the DVD and watched it. Bawled when Neil proposed to Beth. Tears pouring down my face, sniffing up those mucus — yea, you get the picture.

As much as I don’t want to believe what Greg said, there is some truth in what he said. Maybe not the whole truth, but some.

Okie fine, probably 90%.

The thing is, I still believe that love or being in a relationship, boyfriend and girlfriend, husband and wife, can be made simple. It’s how much that person loves you (well in Greg’s context, it would be how much he’s into you). If a guy wants you, he will do everything in his power to get you; to make you his. Period.

Out of the 11 sections, after reading the book and watching the movie, the one that I have to agree with Greg 100% is; He’s just not that into you if he doesn’t want to marry you. I won’t buy in to guys saying that they are not into the whole marriage thing. If they love you enough and is so damn into you, they will marry you. They will.

So yea. Have I, still single, learned anything from the book and the movie? You bet I have.

p/s: good movie to watch with all your girlfriends. :)
