Lesson #1: Guard your heart

Over and over again, people failed me. 

They failed me by not being able to reciprocate the love I have for them.

Some knew how to appreciate, others were jerks. 

But never once, the results turn out differently.

Every single time, I let myself fall into such a position without thinking.

I let them hurt the true love I have for them, now, I no longer know what is the true love I used to have in mind. 

Then, I finally grew up.

I learnt that girls should be cherished, one's love is not meant to be used as jokes or a hold for someone over you. 

If that person is not treating you right, it's okay. There will be someone eventually who will know the right way to treat and love you.

Someday, each of us will be the most important person in another's eyes.

It doesn't matter if it is not happening now.

Your heart matters the most, it deserves someone who knows the same way to love your heart like how you would love his. 

I took a long time and a painful lesson to learn all of these. 

Today, it finally came to me that my friends and family are so much more important than that one person.

They are the people who see my sadness and appreciate my crazy and optimistic ways.

I'll never change my character to suit one person.

I'll guard my heart closely and I'll not let it succumb to all that pain it had gone through in the past as from now.
