Nokia Kinetic Concept Phone

The Nokia Kinetic Concept Phone was designed to be used through movement. The not inconsiderable posterior is not only there to hold the camera, but it also contains an electro-magnet. The magnet moves, shifting the weight distribution and allowing the phone to effectively 'stand up' on its own. This allows for a rather novel way to interact with the phone, to reject a call, you simply tap the phone and it will retreat back to its original position.

Love deeply and passionately

Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but it’s the only way to live life completely.

The secret to love yourself is to keep yourself away from selfishness

Love is not all about saying sorry; it is more on preventing actions that will cause you to say sorry.

I love you’ doesn’t mean you will make someone change who they are or leave them. It means that you will love them for they who are and stay with them forever.

Love isn’t when there are no fights in the relationship. Love is when once the fight ends, love is still there.

Love unites all the good virtues of a person, so how can you say
you love me if you are being rude?

Love is not saying I miss you. Love is being with you.

Love is not just trusting; it is more on being trustworthy.

The secret to make people love you is to show them that you are abundant of love.

The secret to learning love is not to find a true lover, it is to practice loving.

Happiness Will Find You

Happiness lives for those who cry, those who are hurt, those who have searched, and those who tried. For only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives.

The happiest of people don’t necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

If you pursue happiness, it will elude you. But if your focus on your family, your friends, the needs of others, your work and doing the very best you can, happiness will find you.

Let Me Know Now

If you are ever going to love me; love me now.
While I can know the sweet and tender feelings from which true affections flows.

Love me now while I am living. Do not wait until I am gone.
To have those sweet words chiseled in marble on ice-cold stone.

If you have tender thoughts of me, please let me know now.
Not when I am not there.

If life is water, then the jobs, money and position we hold in society are the cups.
They are just tools to hold and maintain our life; but the quality of life doesn't change.

If we only concentrate on the cup, we won't have time to enjoy or taste the water in it.

If you ever feel like knowing, how the people around look on you?

See reflections on the faces of the people you meet; Read your images from their eyes.

All the faces in the world are mirrors. You just have to learn how to read them.

Do not give up when you still have something to give.
Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.

Batfish eat shrimps, mollusks, small fish, crabs, and worms.

Afraid To Lose You

I’m afraid to lose you and you’re not even mine.

The way you walk, way you talk, way you say my name; it’s beautiful, wonderful, don’t you ever change.

My days get better by talking to you, saying I love you is what I like to say.

If we broke apart I wouldn’t know what to do, but being with you is a miracle that I say every day.

Don’t ask me why I love you, because I will have to explain to you why I live !
