" wise men say, only fools rush in. But I can't help falling in love with you..."

Trust

Keisha Cole feat. Monica "Trust"

Let me be the one who can take you from all the things you've seen
And if you trust me I can be there for anything you need
Give it all to me, baby
Don't you run from me, baby
I'll give you every little piece of me
No, I won't leave out a thing
Cause I know

I know you've seen a lot of things in your life
It got you feeling like this can't be right
But, I won't hurt you; I'm down for you baby

Let me show you, love can be easy
If you just let it be
Nothing is promised, but I believe it
If you give it everything
And I'll give you everything that I've got
And I won't stop until you get it right
All the trust, and all the love
You know we got a lot baby

to be stronger...

People come and go in our lives. No matter how many times you experience your hellos and goodbyes, I can never get used to it.

I had to say good-bye to three good people today.

My school friend went back to Japan to go to a Japanese University. He was always a very hard-working guy. He would ask me to help him whenever he was struggling with his school work, and we used to always encourage each other to keep our faces up to survive school. When you are living abroad from your home country alone from an early age, you tend to build a strong bond with the people who are in the same situation. All my school friends are connected with something very strong, since we all have experienced the fear of living in a different country, homesickness, and the struggles of living alone, together. I could not have continued to live here without them. However, at the same time, this means that our hellos and good-byes are always side by side. Not a lot of people decide to stay after school, and even if they do, its not for a long time. Being in this kind of situation, I should be always ready to say good-byes but it is still very hard.

Another good-bye was with my apartment managers. I have been living in this apartment since 18 when I literally didn't know anything about Vancouver. I didn't know how to make a stop request on buses. I didn't know where to go for groceries. I didn't know where anything was. People who have helped me to start my life in Vancouver were them. For 6 years, I have treated them and depended on them as my second parents and they treated me like their child. When I was a teenager, I used to always lock my self out of my room, and I don't know how many times they had to let me in in the middle of the night. But they never complained once, they would always come help me at any time, rolling their eyes but smiling.

Hellos and good-byes are in a set. Where there is a hello, there is always a good-bye, which is something we cannot control in our lives. What is important is in between. What you experience, feel, and learn in between hellos and good-byes are the things that makes our lives precious.

I want to take this opportunity to say thank you to people who I had to say good-bye today, thank you for being in my life.

I believe that I am one more step closer to be a stronger person.


With all my love, Kana

What a day!!!

Power of giving up

Giving up is something you learn to do as you get older,
because you just can't have everything you want.

People are greedy. People want what they don't have, not noticing the importance of what they already have.

But we have to give up some things in order to get what we want the most.

Giving up love to achieve your dream. Giving up comfort to move forward.

Whatever it is that you have to give up, there is always a brighter scene ahead of us.





What can you give up for something you want the most?

everything becomes better

"Believing is easy. It feels better than doubting." by GReeeeN -HARUKA-



This is so true. Doubting and hating takes up so much more energy than believing and loving.

You get so depressed and by the time you realize you don't even remember the core reason why

you were hating or what you were doubting about.


So I'm going to quit hating. I'm going to quit doubting. I've almost lost my motto.

And I won't ever loose my strength of forgiving and believing,

because I still believe that there is no pure evil in this world.




When I realized this,




tomorrow will be a better day.

The Rose

The Rose by Leann Rimes...

Some say love, it is a river
That drowns the tender reed.
Some say love, it is a razor
That leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger,
An endless aching need.
I say love, it is a flower,
And you it's only seed.

It's the heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance.
It's the dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance.
It's the one who won't be taken,
Who cannot seem to give,
And the soul afraid of dying
That never learns to live.

When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been to long,
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong,
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun's love
In the spring becomes rose.

No matter how intimate your relationship is between your friends, family, or a loved one,
people can never be able to understand fully about the other person.

A friendship that you've been building up for years and years, can easily be broken with the smallest incident.

A romantic relationship that you've found, thought that you could trust and dedicate yourself into, can easily be destroyed with just one word.

So why do we still love? Why do we still look for love?

The answer to that, I still don't know...
