Why Men Love Good Girls

The world is weird. We like something we can't have and we crave them while they're not ours. But in the end, the things you crave are what destroys you. Men in general like bad girls but the girls that we fall in love with are the good girls. We commit ourselves to them because they feel like love.

Men love good girls because they're rare. While we swim in the narrowest sea full of fishes, the good girls are always at the bottom. They're like a legendary Pokemon where they're hard to find and hard to catch. She's always under pressure to compete against other women who flirt around with different men. They're just different because even though they're in pressure, they have the patience and faith to wait for the right guy to chase them. 

Men love good girls because they're sweet. When he hears her angelic name, the devil inside him will always be silent. The world is a horrible place but her face will always remind him how iridescent the world is. Her sweetness will affect him every day until he wants to make her feel protected when she's around. Seeing her hurt will hurt him too. 

Men love good girls because they care. Men will always be in trouble or be hurt physically or mentally. Guys will always feel down about the problems that life gives us. A good girl is always there to listen to us on everything. She will nurture you with positivity and she will listen to you without criticism. She will support you in everything you say and she will make you laugh even if you're mad or just tired.

Men love good girls because they inspire. When you share your dreams and goals to her, she will flower it with love and motivation. She will push you to your limit and you will love her for that. But the most important thing that a good girl will do is that she will push you to be a better man. 

If you have a good girl with you, treat her with your 100 percent best. Treat her with the love that she deserves because let's face the fact that good girls are hard to find these days. Don't take the advantage that she's kind and she's forgiving. There are a lot of girls who lack principles and respect these days. If you have a good girl by your side, don't screw it up. You have someone that people would give up everything to have. 

If You're Feeling Down Read This

There was a professor in a college in Manila that started his class one day holding a 1000 peso bill in a room of 40 students. He asked them. “Anyone of you who would like this 1000 peso bill?”

Everyone raised their hands. They were shouting at the prof and they were rowdy. Then he said. “Alright, class. I will give this 1000 peso bill to someone in this class but first…”

He crumpled the money numerous times and after that he raised it again. He asked again the students. “Who still wants the crumpled money?” Still, the students were still raising their hands like crazy. 

The professor said. “Okay, class. What if I do this?” he crumpled the bill again and he tossed it to the garbage can. Again he asked the class. “Who still wants the money?” Again, the students raised their hands.  

“You all learned a valuable lesson in life today, class. Didn’t you see that no matter how I crumpled or thew the money you still wanted it not because it was beautiful but because of the value of it? No matter how I crumpled it or threw it, its worth is still the same. “ he explained. 

“In life, you will be crumpled a lot of times and you will be thrown in the garbage by other people, your decisions and the circumstances along the way. You will feel that you are worthless but like this 1000 pesos, you will never lose your value. 

Dirty or crumpled the people who loves you know that you are priceless and your value will never be substituted. Our worth doesn’t depend on the things that we are doing or the people we know, it’s always on who we are. 

Alive

Dear Reader, 

 I really can't understand on how people just wake up one morning and just decide to lose their feelings to their love ones. It's something that I really can't explain. They lead you on and from that moment you will feel attached. They are inspiration in everything. They will be a normal habit that you cannot just "ignore"  because they make you happy and you can never ignore happiness. They will make reasons like this and like that but the truth is that if you really like someone there are no "buts" and you'll risk it all. You will risk everything and you will take the fall. The outcome of that scenario will lead to two things: to be happy or to get hurt. 

If you risk it, you can be happy. It starts in the morning where you receive their texts. And somehow you don't need coffee for you to feel alive in the mornings. You'll just feel alive with one simple text message. You are inspired to breathe and survive a day because they are there for you. Maybe not physically but emotionally they are present in your heart and mind. They will be your inspiration in everything. When I say everything I mean everything you do because they will know a side of your life that you don't usually talk to other people. With that, they become a daily routine that you are really happy to do everyday. You are constantly thanking God for meeting them and praying for your blessings in life. Especially them. And they will never fail to amaze you with the things they do. And you are constantly charmed in everything they say. It's like everyday there is something new that makes you love them more than yesterday.

If you risk it, you can be sad.  They will still be a daily routine. It's like a get to know each other stage. With that you will feel happy. But for only a meanwhile. But when the rising action falls, you will feel alone. They will just get cold to you and you will be sad.  You will try your best to restore "what's normal" but it will never be normal again. You'll just want to be happy again. You will just want to wake up one morning not missing them. You will try to ignore that by doing other things like a hobby or your studies but in the night, you will over-think about scenarios if they miss you like you miss them or do they even think about you and feel the sadness that you are feeling. It will be hard to move on but you will learn.

Never be scared to take risks. Because that is life. It's all about taking risks, to choose paths and to learn. But  a wise tip: Never love them will all of your heart and body. Because when they get cold and leave you, you will feel lost. Like you don't know what do anymore in life.  But I am not encouraging you not to love because love is beautiful. It's the building foundation of everything nice and beautiful here on Earth. Just be cautious on who are trying to have your heart. But when they do capture your heart, they should never really stop trying everyday to make you feel that you are lucky and blessed that you are live.

Love,

El

Valentines Day

I am back. I don't really know why but I am inspired to write a blog about Valentines Day.... Well to help you guys, I'm gonna tell you the story of Valentines day. It was during the reign of the Roman Empire. Christianity was banned and Christians were tortured at that time. So sacraments of Christianity were highly illegal so if you get caught, you'll get tortured and you will die. So there was a guy named St. Valentine. He believed that the power of love can overcome anything so he then marries Christians secretly. Maybe in catacombs or in secret hideouts. So then he got caught and he became a martyr for believing in love and his faith. 

Now, people living today use Valentines as a way to show their love for their mate. They buy them flowers, they buy them big teddy bears and they buy them chocolates. They use one night to show them that they will love them unconditionally in one night. But here I am questioning all of the people who only use February 14 to actually show that they care. 


Bro, if you do love her, you won't just use one day to actually show to her that you care for her. Show to her that you will love her unconditionally and show to her that you care for her. You shouldn't just be a gentleman for one night, you should always be a gentleman whenever she's around. You know? Open doors for her, etc-etc. Show to her that she means to you more than she knows. Make little efforts from time to time, or surprise her. It's easy to say all of these things but it's hard to do. But if you really really like her, nothing can block your path.



If you're actually single this Valentines, don't worry. You'll get your chance soon. So just go with the flow. Here's my advice though, you don't have to be bitter that you don't have a date. Valentine's day isn't just about a girlfriend or a boyfriend. It's about love. You can share your love to your friends and family! So stop bitter tweeting about it and just show your love to your family and friends. 


I'm getting off topic but if you truly love someone, you wouldn't just use one day to prove it. You must love that person 365 days. One of everyday you did, you do and you will love that person. Because you must feel that whenever that person is around, it's always Valentines Day.

Perfect Match

Dear Reader,

No one is perfect. You are not perfect and you should know too that he is not perfect either. But you should realize that he makes you laugh all the time whenever you're sad or lonely that helps you to think either. And if he efforts in talking to you and admits that he's only a human being, never let him go. Give a piece of your heart to him and let him take care of it. And if you let him sink in that he has your heart, which will require patience. He will think about you everyday, he will retweet really lovey-dubey tweets on his Twitter account, he will put romantic statuses on Facebook and even post pictures of sweet things on Instagram. And in that moment, he will give you a part of him that he knows that you will never give up in. Just don't give up on him. Don't just say "you give up" because of simple fights because giving up is not worth it. If you're mad, be mad at him. If you're sad, tell him. And most importantly, if you miss him, call him and say you miss him. Enjoy every bit and enjoy every moment when you guys are together. Love exist in happiness. I said earlier that there are no perfect guys but there's always one guy that is perfect for you.


Love,

Legends (Ray-Ban Contest)

(I would like to thank you Tin Iglesias  for inspiring me to create this blog.)

This is my entry for the Ray-ban contest.

" I am the greatest, I said that even before I knew I was." -Muhammad Ali

Muhammad Ali, Michael Jordan, Roger Federer and Manny Pacquiao. These people are examples of what we call legends. These athletes are inspiration to millions of people around the world. But what really makes a legend? 

One thing we all know is that being a legend is not easy because you don't get what you desire without doing anything; you get what you work for. It's a transformation that you will only see if you search within yourself the greatness that God gave you. You need to train every day, you will sacrifice a lot of things and you must be motivated to train. Being a legend isn't just a walk in park but one thing we all must know is that legends are influential. A legend must be influential that they must possess the power to inspire people. A legend must teach people that the pain you attain in training sessions is temporary but attaining greatness is forever. 

A legend must have desire to pursue a dream. Because with desire comes motivation that will lead to the determination to do it and then commitment will come to turn it into a habit that is a commitment to excellence. 

A legend must be fearless. They must not fear the bumps in the road that they will encounter in their journey. Failures are part of your training. Training in your never ending experience. Failing is not the end of your journey. It's your decision to stand up and keep on running because that is being a legend is all about and greatness will never wait for you. If there's a big mountain of problems in your journey, then climb it. Because the view is amazing."Fall down seven times, get up eight ".

And lastly, a legend must have character. Everyone must have character on what they are doing because everyone can be great but they must dare the inevitable. One thing YOU should always remember is that with will, you can conquer anything. Because the will you have beats the skill of your opponent. Your ability may help you achieve in being a legend but your character will be the one who will help you to stay at the top. Being a legend is for all of us. We must dare to achieve greatness. We must never listen to anyone who will try to bring us down and we must prove to them and show to them that we can do it. Because just like what Lewis Cass said "People may doubt what you say, but they will believe what you do." So always try and try and try and never give up because only the fearless can be great.

Mistakes

Dear Reader,

I know it's hard to let go. You talk all day, everyday actually. You fall asleep on the phone together. You wake up with a smile in your face because of the morning texts that really lightens up your day. You think about then when you're asleep, you dream about them. You spend time with them in Skype dates or even in real dates that really makes you happy. Actually, you're happy whether it's just the internet or in real life. They soon become a part of you. They soon become a habit everyday that makes you happy and you get used to it. Then all of a sudden, they leave. And permanently, they're gone in your life. Just like that. That means no more late night phone calls, no more Skype dates, no more cute messages when you're in a bad mood (actually no texts at all) or if they text you will feel no emotion. The first few days you just want to really really really texts them the 3 words that everyone wants to hear: "I miss you" in every way. You will want to tweet them, message them on Facebook, call them and especially text them really do everything to restore what's "normal" between you two. But as much as you want to try and to restore it, things don't change.  The hardest part is to let go. You always check your phone and every time it rings or vibrates your heart hopefully wants them to text, you check their Twitter or Facebook accounts if they're talking about you on how they "miss you" or if they have someone new. This person that was once your everything is now just a memory. A painful memory that just replay and replay in your head. You spend nights reminiscing everything that you guys did. The sweet texts, the romantic morning and evening texts, the Skype dates, the shared laughs, the hugs and especially the kisses, all the good things that went on during the time when you two were together. You will spend days, weeks or even months or maybe years. Remember that this was just a fragment of time, a memory that will someday fade and I think that the only reason people hold onto memories so tight is because memories are the only things that don't change; when everybody else does. Your friends, family and God may help but the only thing that can heal a broken heart is time.

But in order to move on and get over it, you have to be able to tell yourself that they're not worth it, and you deserve better, and you'll find someone new. The best feeling comes when you realize you’re perfectly happy without the people you thought you needed the most. It's because hardly, you can't live in the past because life doesn't work that way, life is meant to be traveled forward not backward.  Yes the memories hurt but the memories makes you strong everyday. It's their fault because they missed out on true love. I hope that this is a lesson for them to realize that everyone makes mistakes but their biggest one is losing you.

Love,
El

Dear Reader,

As I write this blog I tend to think about love. Funny thing about that is I never really had a chance to fall in love. I don't really know what's wrong with me or is it just because my heart really wants a perfect girl to fill it with romance. Funny how people just tend to fall just because someone said "I love you" to them. But the truth is, love is not a word but love is an action. If you really her you do actions not just words. Do you know how love works? It is a give in a take relationship between two people. Actually three people (Count in the spiritual works of God). That is it actually. Here is an advice, never stop believing. Never stop waiting for the right person to come in your life you know why? Because when you meet that special person you will just say "All this time we're waiting for each other." Because your love for that person doesn't develop overtime. It's a serendipity that happens every single day. It flows in you like water. Filling you with inspiration and happiness. You feel it throughout your body, in your veins, in your mind, in your legs and especially in your heart. When that happens, don't fight it. Go with that flow and just be happy.


Love,
El

True Love

2 hearts, 2 souls, 1 beat. What is the definition of love? Movies, love poems, stories, and even your grand parents manifested it. But how can you see true love? How can you feel it? and how can you make it stay? Because everybody knows how to love, but only few people know how to stay in love with one person for a very long period of time.


There are 10 ways to love: listen, speak, give, pray, answer, share, enjoy, trust, forgive, promise. And if you want to love you must follow them in order for your relationship to work and for you to have a “forever and ever.”

True love for me is when I pause a Temple Run game for that girl, when every time I make a wish it involves her, when there’s a spark between me and that girl, when she makes me smile for no reason at all because nobody can make me smile for no reason, except for the one who has a special space in my heart. For short, I just want you that’s it. All your flaws, mistakes, smiles, giggles, jokes, sarcasm. Everything. Now as you can see, it’s really hard to see love in our generation because the best thing in life is finding someone who knows all of your mistakes and weaknesses and still thinks you’re completely amazing. But now in our generation, people are blinded by looks. But truly I say to you, looks can be deceiving because once you get old, looks won’t take care of you but that person’s attitude will. With attitude, that person can take care of you, can still love you, and never leave you.
How can you make love stay? When you have someone special in your life, don’t ruin it by making stupid decisions. I mean by fighting? Come on. Fighting won’t resolve the war but it will resolve into a breakup. Truly I say to you, if you truly love that person, pride won’t help you. Try to dissolve your pride and say sorry to that person. Because that person is more important than pride. As you can see, true love don’t just happen. They take time, patience, and two people who truly want to be together.
I just want to say that your true love will come because I know in fact that a man is waiting for you somewhere because boys are like stars, there are millions of them out there, but only one can make your dreams come true.
If you truly love her, you will do everything to satisfy her, be spontaneous with your efforts, be logical about your fights, be romantic in any occasions even thought it’s just a normal date, give her the stars because true love comes from more than just the heart.

What Makes A Girl Beautiful

A girl is beautiful when she is confident. Because confidence is the key to all the locks. With confidence a person can conquer anything. With confidence, you can reach truly amazing heights; without confidence, even the simplest accomplishments are beyond your grasp.

A girl is beautiful when she is smart. Beauty and brains are what beauty queens show off that makes them really attractive. With intelligence, a girl will know who to love because a smart girl knows how love but a smarter girl knows who to love. And with intelligence she can foresee her future and with that, a boy is really attracted to smart girls.

A girl is beautiful when she smiles. The sexiest curve in a girl is not her body, but her smiling lips. And boys are attracted to girls who smiles a lot because it gives a positive feedback to other people because a smile is a language of love. Always remember to be happy because you never know who’s falling in love with your smile.

A girl is beautiful when her personality shines. Boys are attracted to girls at their faces and curves but they won’t stay if their personality is ugly.

Most importantly, a girl is beautiful when she accepts herself for what she is. A girl should accept the things that fate got her and a girl should love herself before she loves another. By accepting themselves and fully being what they are.
