Kalo versi bahasa Indonesianya kayak gini….(sumber: blog nya Silly, Jun2008)

Cinta itu seperti kupu-kupu. Tambah dikejar, tambah lari… Tapi kalau dibiarkan terbang, dia akan datang di saat kamu tidak mengharapkannya..

Cinta dapat membuat kamu bahagia tapi sering juga bikin sedih… Cinta baru berharga kalau diberikan kepada seseorang yang menghargainya…. Jadi jangan terburu-buru, dan pilihlah yang terbaik.

Cinta bukan bagaimana menjadi pasangan yang “sempurna” bagi seseorang… Tapi bagaimana menemukan seseorang yang dapat membantumu menjadi dirimu sendiri. Dan karena itu kamu adalah sempurna!!!

Jangan pernah bilang “I love you“ kalau kamu tidak perduli… Jangan pernah membicarakan perasaan yang tidak pernah ada…. Jangan pernah menyentuh hidup seseorang kalau hal itu akan menghancurkan hatinya.

Jangan pernah menatap matanya kalau semua yang kamu lakukan hanya kebohongan…. Hal paling kejam yang seseorang lakukan kepada orang lain adalah membiarkannya jatuh cinta, sementara kamu tidak berniat untuk menangkapnya…

Kesedihan dan kerinduan hanya terasa selama yang kamu inginkan dan menyayat sedalam yang kamu izinkan… Yang berat ituuu… bukan bagaimana caranya menanggulangi kesedihan dan kerinduan itu, tapi bagaimana belajar darinya

Memang sakit melihat orang yang kamu cintai sedang berbahagia dengan orang lain,… tapi lebih sakit lagi kalau orang yang kamu cintai itu tidak berbahagia bersama kamu

Cinta akan menyakitkan ketika kamu berpisah dengan seseorang, lebih menyakitkan apabila kamu dilupakan oleh kekasihmu, tapi cinta akan lebih menyakitkan lagi apabila seseorang yang kamu sayangi tidak tahu apa yang sesungguhnya kamu rasakan.

Ahhh…. When I’m thinking about LOVE, it makes me feel blush… don’t you?? J

And for me…. LOVE is…

“Ada sesuatu yang gak bisa diliat oleh mata, gak bisa didengar oleh telinga, tapi dirasakan oleh hati… itulah Cinta”

“Cinta itu pengorbanan – mengorbankan waktu, pikiran, tenaga, materi, dan hati utk orang yang kita cintai tapi perasaan puas dan ikhlas”

Hahahaha… sok Pujangga banget sih gue! :-p

Kalo ada yang mo nambahin pengertian soal Cinta menurut diri sendiri, silakan… komen yaaa…. J
