"I think if you are in a one or two-year relationship, love is enough. But when you hit years three and four, you realize that if you're going to live with somebody, you have to be nurtured emotionally and spiritually, and you have to be intrigued. Because if that intrigue runs out, you're not going to want to go home anymore."

    My name is Joseph

    I'm 30 yrs old

    Love my family

    I am a very optimistic and caring person

    Absolutely love to have positive as well as determined people in my life

    Work hard for what I have achieved

    Do not have the time to put up with bullsh**

    So basically if you are all about your self, please do not bother

    Anything else? Just ask

    Everything happens for a reason: People change so that you can learn to let go. Things go wrong so you can appreciate them when they are right. You believe lies so you can learn to trust yourself, and good things fall apart so better things can fall together. The future always brings something better.

    Life is an opportunity, benefit from it. Life is beauty, admire it. Life is bliss, taste it. Life is a dream, realize it. Life is a challenge, meet it. Life is a duty, complete it. Life is a game, play it. Life is a promise, fulfill it. Life is sorrow, overcome it. Life is a song, sing it. Life is a struggle, accept it. Life is a tragedy, confront it. Life is an adventure, dare it. Life is luck, make it. Life is too precious, do not destroy it. Life is life, fight for it.
    Life+ end-when you stop dreaming hope ends when you you stop believing and love ends when you stop caring so dream in hope and loving me make life beautiful.
