Read this quote today which I found quite meaningful. The supreme happiness of life is the conviction of being loved for yourself, or more correctly, being loved in spite of yourself. - Victor Hugo Food for thought huh? Kinda makes me thankful for the people who appreciate me more in spite of whom I am, instead of just because of who I am. What do you think of this quote? does it make sense? Can you identify with it?

YEah i think it's right and makes sense too.. haha =D There are things whereby one cant be judged upon what they see on the surface or thru actions taken.. THey must see deeper into it, and know the meaning behind each action done or words said.. KNowing the intention, rather than be judgemental?? hehe

With a very deep thought huh! I guess it states that happiness is for everybody to enjoy and in spite of failures we should be treated by what we are and not by who we are. For example your mom is the president of your country, you should love her not because she's the president but because she is your kind-hearted mother.
