Change is inevitable,
But yet we fight it, just the same.
Change is essential to our evolution.
Change is going to happen.
In fact, it happens everyday.
Maybe it is too small to see,
Or perhaps we would rather not see it.
We fight change, because we fight the unknown.
We fight the unknown, because we are scared.
Scared of change, scared of the unknown.
Change is the unknown.

You ought to know by now,
Love is the look in my eye;
Lovin' the way you smile when I say,
"I wish you would stay."
You bring out all the youth in me,
I laugh and cry out all the truth in me,
Out o' love.
You should know by now.
Haven't you felt by now
Just what it's like to be loved;
Knowin' that certain touch when you're sure
Time won't give you more.
You bring out all the best in me;
I wanna hold you till you feel the need somehow
Somehow;
You should know by now
If I could just find the words,
I wouldn't be left so lonely;
I'm your one, my only.
Then I'd show you how
Ev'ry move as smooth as silk,
Say you will; say you will.
Hasn't it crossed your mind
Haven't you known all the time
Honestly tell me now,
Has it shown?
How much love is grown;
The way I tremble at the sight of you.
I want to learn to love you through and through,
This I'll beg.
You should know by now,
Hmm-mmm.
By now.
You should know by now,
Don't you think you should know by now?

We can't blame others when love dwindles away -
For we knew from the start it never promised to stay.
It's just one of those things were the stakes are high -
And sometimes it's forever, and sometimes it's good-bye.
When you love the right way, you will never lose -
No matter what path life may force you to choose.
You may end up with tears, or a broken heart -
But you knew what you signed up for from the start.
You can only give what you've got to give -
And if that's not enough, then you must continue to live.
Life will go on and broken hearts will heal -
You must continue on your quest, for that's the deal.
Throw your heart into life, and never stall -
For the greatest risk is to risk nothing at all.
You see, love is the only thing that we know -
That can be divided and divided but continue to grow.
And life isn't long enough to lock away our heart -
Just because life may have forced two people apart.
We will continue to love and continue to lose -
We will continue to pick and continue to choose.
And then one day we will just risk it all -
Take the chains off our hearts and dismantle the wall.
The last time we love will be the forever -
And never again will our hearts be forced to sever.
We'll never have doubts that it'll go away -
Because this time, it'll be here to stay.
But until then we must endure all the pain -
For we only see sunshine if we can wait through the rain.

"I shall walk eager still for what life holds.
Although it seems the hard road will not end,
One never knows the beauty round the bend."
~Anna Blake Mezquida~
With every form of adversity comes the seed of an equal or greater benefit. Look upon your future as the bright outcome of the storm you are living through during this time of your separation. Most importantly, you must believe in the positive value of this outcome, which will perhaps require a change in your perspective. If you keep in mind the idea that all things happen for a reason and a purpose, it will be easier for you to create out of your future a positive result of your painful experience.
The future will be happier. Make this your guiding principle. Meditate upon it; listen to the bright messages of things to come. Understand that if you have been capable of getting through the chaos of this separation, you are that much more prepared to be the master of what lies ahead of you. Think in these terms. Give yourself credit for the courage with which you are meeting your present circumstances and accept the fact that this very positive quality of yours is the springboard toward a positive future.
The future is the greatest source of inspiration that you have. It represents an entire world of possibilities. These possibilities are clearly within your reach only if you will develop now the proper attitude toward your own future potentials. Make an attempt to imagine and visualize this future. Set goals for yourself which are stepping stones in the direction of that bright future as you imagine it. Before you now lies the greatest opportunity of all: the chance to realize your own growth and development to its maximum. Think of the experience of your separation as the first stage in the movement toward a better future life for yourself and for those whom you will encounter as you weave the texture of things as they are to be. You are now one step higher in the understanding of human relationships. And that understanding, without a doubt, is the most significant of all in the creation of a meaningful and successful future.
The optimism which is necessary in order to make things happen in your favor lies entirely within your grasp. Your whole future depends upon the attitude with which you approach it. Make that attitude the most positive one imaginable. Remember that your future is everything and that you have the power to make it as bright as you wish.
