I want to be with you, I just want to be with you. If I could hold your hand for the rest of my life, I would never be scared again. I want to hold you tight and I want to tell you every second how much you mean to me because nobody has ever meant more. I want to be able to help you and make you smile, just like you make me smile.
“You're the first person I wanna look at when I wake up in the morning and the only one I want to kiss goodnight. Because the first time that I saw these hands, I couldn't imagine not being able to hold them” -Definitely, Maybe
I love the way you said you'd always love me and I love the way you looked at me with eyes that reassured every promise you made. It's not so often that you stumble upon someone who makes you feel on top of the world and it's even less often that you find a good way to hold onto them and keep them within your reach because once they're gone, you've lost them for good.
“To believe in yourself and to follow your dreams, to have goals in life and a drive to succeed, and to surround yourself with the things and the people that make you happy- this is success!” - Sasha Azevedo
Promise yourself to be strong, that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. Look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true. Think only of the best, work only for the best, and expect only the best. Forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. Give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others. Live in the faith that the whole world is on your side as long as you are true to the best that is in you.
We spend half our life sleeping, but we spend our whole life waiting. Waiting in lines, waiting for times, waiting to be old enough, waiting for a call. We’re always waiting. We just don't always realize it. Waiting for someone to say something, waiting for them to notice you. Constantly waiting for that one person, and they have no idea you’re waiting for them
Never in a million years did I think I'd find someone so utterly and completely perfect. Someone who makes me happier than I have ever dreamed I could be. Someone that would touch my life so profoundly and just give me a whole new reason to breathe. But then I found you and realized that everything I anticipated you to be, doesn't even compare to what you are.
"Our forever could end in an hour, or a hundred years from now. You never know for sure, so you'd better make every second count."
-The Truth About Forever by Sarah Dessen
Only you yourself can give you the best advice. It sounds oh so cliche, but follow your heart.

We should all start to live before we get too old. Fear is stupid, so are regrets
people spend their whole lives trying to live up to other people's expectations and being told what to do. i say screw that; be free. do what you want, go where you want, and reach for the sky because life has no limits or boundaries. boundaries are just other people's fears, and limits are just other people's expectations. you only get one chance to do all the things that life offers you. have no enemies, no regrets. no fears, and then you'll have really lived life.
Cinderella said to Snow White
How does love get so off course
All I wanted was a white knight
With a good heart, soft touch, fast horse
Ride me off into the sunset
-this kiss faith hill
You know when you are doing a math test, and you skip those really hard problems and save them for last because they are too complicated or you just don't get it? I am one of those problems and that is exactly how people treat me.
I'm not sad, mad, upset, depressed, or frustrated. I’m disappointed that you were exactly what everyone said you were. A player, jerk, and someone who will never understand what true love really means.
Believe, that one single positive dream is more important than a thousand negative realities.
If he misses you, he’ll call just to hear your voice. If he wants you, he’ll say it. And if he cares, he’ll show it. If he has a thought about you, it will come out of his mouth. If you are on his mind non stop, he will do anything he can just to see you. If he truly likes you, he won’t let anything get in the way and fight back just to keep you in his arms. If not, he can’t be worth your time because you’re obviously not worth his.
You've got to be noisy and colorful and lively.
A dream is a wish your heart makes when you're fast asleep. In dreams you will lose your heartaches. Whatever you wish for, you keep. Have faith in your dreams, and someday, your rainbow will come smiling through. No matter how your heart is grieving, if you keep on believing, the dream that you wish will come true.
[Cinderella]
You’re original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow
Maybe you’re reason why all the doors are closed;
So you can open one that leads you to the perfect road
[Fireworks by Katy Perry]
I have this theory that if one person can go out of their way to show compassion then it will start a chain reaction of the same, people will never know how far a little kindness can go.

Sometimes things happen in our lives that tear us apart inside, but if we don’t learn to look past them and see the sun shining above the clouds, we will forever be standing in the rain.

You closed your eyes. That was the difference. Sometimes you cannot believe what you see; you have to believe what you feel. And if you are ever going to have other people trust you, you must feel that you can trust them, too – even when you’re in the dark.
Even when you’re falling.
There are moments that mark your life, moments when you realize nothing will ever be the same again, and time is divided into two parts, before this and after this, now sometimes you can feel such a moment coming, that's the test, or so I tell myself at times like these: strong people keep moving forward anyway, no matter what they’re going to find.
You will look back on the times you laughed and you will cry. You will look back on the times you cried, and you will laugh. You will always remember close friends, and you will always keep memories of them in your heart. Life is hard, it’s tough, and it’s unfair, but everyone gets over the hurt and the pain, eventually. You always end up with a smile on your face, if you give it a chance.
Happiness is the consequence of personal effort. You fight for it, strive for it, insist upon it, and sometimes even travel around the world looking for it. You have to participate relentlessly in the manifestations of your own blessings. And once you have achieved a state of happiness, you must never become lax about maintaining it. You must make a mighty effort to keep swimming upward into that happiness forever, to stay afloat on top of it.
[Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat Pray Love]
This is failure. It’s that moment when you realize that a choice you made, or something you did, has fully changed the course of your life. But what matters even more than this truth is what you do choose to do once you know it. The tendency may be to curl up in the fetal position and wait for things to improve. But if you can somehow manage to take a breath and look around you, you might just spot another path you hadn’t seen before. It may not be easy to walk, especially the beginning. But all that really matters is that it’s there.
[Sarah Dessen]
Somehow I can't believe that there are any heights that can't be scaled by a man who knows the secret of making dreams come true. This special secret, it seems to me, can be summarized in the four C's. They are curiosity, confidence, courage and constancy, and the greatest of these is confidence. When you believe in a thing, believe in it all the way, implicitly and unquestionably.
[Walt Disney]
"Life is all about change. If it were static, think about how boring it would be. You can't be afraid of it, and you can't worry that you'll mess things up. You deserve good things, and I want to be one of them." -Ellen Hopkins
Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment, and making the best of it without knowing what will happen next. Be thankful for hard times in your life. Try not to look at them as bad things, but as opportunities to grow and learn.
What you think is what you are. What you peruse becomes your reality.
In a world of comparison and conformity, make your own statement.

throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
You know that feeling? That feeling as if youre on top of the world? The feeling you get after your first date. The feeling you get after you laugh with your best friend. The feeling you get when meeting your idol. That’s how life should feel everyday
Everything that happens to us, the good and the bad, is part of us. It took me a long time to realize that it doesn't have to define who we are. We get to decide.
[CSI]
So, we'll go our own ways, and hopefully you'll remember the things I've told you. Hopefully you'll understand that everything I said was in sincerity. A broken heart is not what I wanted from this, but I guess I've learned from it. But aren't you supposed to learn from your mistakes? I don't consider this a mistake, I just wish the story didn't end this way, cause I'm still in love with the person who helped me write it.
I traced our names on a foggy window, and I watched them fade away, just like we did.
I have someone who is protective, stable, strong, loving, kind, funny, and reliable. He’s everything any girl could ever ask for, and probably more than most girls ever dream of having in their life. But I’m in love with someone else. Someone who I’m not sure is any of those things, someone who I’m not even sure feels the same way. But the only difference is that I am truly in love with him.
I guess, if anything, it's about taking chances, even when you think you're all out of chances. It's about giving forgiveness and unconditional love, even when it seems like you should only do the opposite. It's about trusting that God puts people in your life at certain moments so that you can capitalize the opportunity. It's all about the possibility. It's all about what you do with those possibilities. Life is short, but it moves so fast. Hang on and enjoy the ride. And when someone comes along with whom you enjoy spending the ride with, hold on tight.
I feel like people get lost when they think of happiness as a destination. We’re always thinking that someday we’ll be happy. You know, we’ll get that car or that job or that person in our lives that fixes everything. But happiness is a mood and a condition, it’s not a destination. It’s like being tired or hungry; it’s not permanent, it comes and goes, and that’s okay. And I feel like if people thought of it that way, they’d find happiness a lot more often.
[One Tree Hill]
Don't find love, let love find you. That's why it's called falling in love, because you don't force yourself to fall, you just fall.
Teenage passion. Childhood Sweethearts. Schoolgirl Crush. College Romance. The first person you gave a part of you too, be it your heart, or all of your emotions. Holding hands, butterflies and stolen glances. Don't forget your first love, they either make you or break you, and either way they made you strong. They set your standard of love, and possibly always will.
stars make me smile, because every time i see one i feel hope. hope that tomorrow is a new day with a new feeling. that something different, better, is out there waiting. everyone wishes on stars with the same hope.
Life changes. You get it all lined up just the way you like it and then something beyond your control comes along and bumps your off center. How nice it would be if you could get everything just the way you want it and say “okay, now.. stay!”. But nothing stays the same. You grow up, make friends, lose friends, go to college, lose track of people, meet new ones and sometimes you ask yourself why. But all I can tell you is that every single experience you go through changed you in some way. Every new person who comes into your life changes you. Every moral dilemma or emotional experience you come up against changes you. It’s your job to decide how.
Beauty comes from a life well lived. If you've lived well, your smile lines are in the right places, and your frown lines aren't too bad, what more do you need?

Amanda :) fifteen going on twenty. i love me some inspiring quotes & graphics. the ones that really touch you, or that you can relate to. or even ones that make you think. i live in the past, and i know i'm not easy to understand. i keep a lot inside, and i'm also not the easiest person to read. that's okay because even though there is a lot about me you will never know, there's surely a hell of a lot about me that you can learn to love. i hope this is enough to make the scroll box scroll. yeah, i'm pretty down to earth.
You spend a long enough time with someone and your bodies memorize each other.. the warmth of your back, the pace of your heartbeat, your tickly eyelashes and the way your fingers would curl in sequence when I used to play with your palm. Another person is like moving to a new country where you don’t know the language. It's a scary thing.
I believe in being strong,
when everything seems to be going wrong.
I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls.
I believe that tomorrow is another day, and I believe in miracles.
Audrey Hepburn
I'm learning to be brave in my beautiful mistakes.
I've felt the fire and I've been burned,
but I wouldn't trade the pain for what I've learned.
The greatest love story ever told,
is your own.
Letters to Juliet
The best love is the kind that
awakens the soul and makes us reach for more,
that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds.
And that's what you've given me.
That's what I'd hoped to give you forever.
The Notebook
I wanted a perfect ending.
Now I’ve learned, the hard way, that some poems don’t rhyme, and some stories don’t have a clear beginning, middle and end.

So sometimes it might hurt,
so you probably will cry,
but the worst pain of all,
is not giving love a try.
My boyfriend John. He may not be an actual "Super Hero", but he should be. He saved me from making so many mistakes. Whenever I need encouragement, he's there. Whenever I need anything, he's there. He brings me soup when I'm sick. He gives me flowers after I've had a long stress-filled week. He helps me with my homework, and comforts me when I'm feeling down. I'm so grateful to have someone like him in my life. He saved me from becoming majorly depressed after my mother passed away. I really feel like he came into my life at that time for a reason. I know he'll always be there for me, even if we were to breakup. That means more to me than anything in the world. I know this seems like anything a love-stricken teenage girl would write, but with John it's different. He can make me go from being cranky and moody to laughing till I cry and snort, and yes, I said snort. I just can't put it into words how much he means to me, and I hope and pray that we stay together for a long time <3.
You have a purpose. And I know you are young, but you really are meant to do something with your life. You may not realize it yet, but whatever happens now, no matter how difficult, things will be okay, and tomorrow will be better.

Lightning doesn't often strike twice. It's a once in a lifetime thing. Even if it feels like the shock is coming over and over again. Eventually the pain will go away, the shock will wear off. And you start to heal yourself. To recover from something you never saw coming. But, sometimes the odds are in your favor. If you're in just the right place at just the right time you can take a helluva hit. And still have a shot at surviving.

poem from zach?
You don't know how I'm feeling.
I have yet to vocalize
Desire deep inside me.
Can you see it in my eyes?
I tremble when I'm near you
Heat travels up my thighs
and I want you with an urgency
That I just can't describe.
Dare I reach out to touch you?
Do you think you'd realize
How much I want and need you?
Can you see it in my eyes?
I long to say, "I love you,"
But am scared of your reply.
Terrified like a child
I've become paralyzed.
The camouflaged emotions
Lead to pain and silent cries.
And yet I just can't tell you.
Don't you see it in my eyes?
Confessing through this poem
My dilemma summarized.
The feeling's quite cathartic,
But will lead to my demise.
I have yet to vocalize

life is simple…
you make choices and you don't look back.
people need to be more aware of
the need to work at learning how to
live, because life is so quick, and
sometimes, it goes away too quickly.
Don't find love, let love find you. That's why it's called falling in love, because you don't force yourself to fall, you just fall.
Teenage passion. Childhood Sweethearts. Schoolgirl Crush. College Romance. The first person you gave a part of you too, be it your heart, or all of your emotions. Holding hands, butterflies and stolen glances. Don't forget your first love, they either make you or break you, and either way they made you strong. They set your standard of love, and possibly always will.
Love makes you feel like you're four years old at Disney World again
Don’t underestimate the power of an apology, a prayer or even a smile. People are in your life for a reason so don’t ever regret something if it once made you the happiest person in the world.

I guess, if anything, it's about taking chances, even when you think you're all out of chances. It's about giving forgiveness and unconditional love, even when it seems like you should only do the opposite. It's about trusting that God puts people in your life at certain moments so that you can capitalize the opportunity. It's all about the possibility. It's all about what you do with those possibilities. Life is short, but it moves so fast. Hang on and enjoy the ride. And when someone comes along with whom you enjoy spending the ride with, hold on tight.
I feel like people get lost when they think of happiness as a destination. We’re always thinking that someday we’ll be happy. You know, we’ll get that car or that job or that person in our lives that fixes everything. But happiness is a mood and a condition, it’s not a destination. It’s like being tired or hungry; it’s not permanent, it comes and goes, and that’s okay. And I feel like if people thought of it that way, they’d find happiness a lot more often.

Chris Lambton recently told Star why he turned down The Bachelor:
"When my kids are 20 years old and looking for love, I want to say, 'This is the amazing story of how I met your mom,' not, 'Oh, yeah, she was the best of 25.'"
And if it's going to end then let it end in flames. Let it burn all the way down. And if this is ever meant to end, then I hope it ends where it began. So hot with love, we burned our hands
"If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward your always in the same place." -Nora Roberts
"If you ever doubt the power of language, listen more closely. Witness the magic the first time someone whispers "I love you." Watch a woman put on head phones, close her eyes, and have her life changed by a lyric. See a bad moment flipped upside down by a well timed joke. Words propel us, empower us, make us human and more than human. We constantly struggle to say what we mean and mean what we say; to wrestle with words and meanings. But as we whisper and shout, stutter and spin, we create order out of the chaos around us. We are built of words, and we live by them, too."
"Do not think that love in order to be genuine has to be extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired. Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies." -Mother Teresa
“It’s the possibility that keeps me going. And though you may call me a dreamer or fool or any other thing, I believe that anything is possible.”
"You couldn't have strength without weakness, you couldn't have light without dark, you couldn't have love without loss.
"Life flies by, so you have to embrace it. Forget the past, because you cannot erase it. So live the dream, and learn to chase it."
"The majority of us lead quiet, unheralded lives as we pass through this world. There will most likely be no ticker-tape parades for us, no monuments created in our honor; but that does not lessen our possible impact, for there are scores of people waiting for someone just like us to come along. People who will appreciate our compassion, our unique talents. Someone who will live a happier life merely because we took the time to share what we had to give. Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring - all of which have a potential to turn a life around. It's overwhelming to consider the continuous opportunities there are to make our love felt."
Some of the best things in life are UNSEEN:
we close our eyes when we kiss, sleep and therefore dream.
love is not seen, it's felt.
you can't see the wind, but rather feel the breeze.
The past is all memories, some of them will fade.
The future is what we create, day by passing day.
The present is a gift we too often toss away.
“For everything you have missed, you have gained something else. And for everything you gain, you lose something else. It is about your outlook towards life. You can either regret or rejoice.”
you make choices and you don't look back.
people need to be more aware of
the need to work at learning how to
live, because life is so quick, and
sometimes, it goes away too quickly.

I don't need a rose, I want a daisy you picked for my hair. I don't want a box of fancy chocolates, I want a burnt cookies you made just for me. I don't want to go to some upscale restaurant, let's just have a picnic in the park. We don't have to go to prom, we can just dance on my front porch until we fall asleep in each other's arms.
Cameron John
Cameron-
Since it's Christmas time I decided to write you a little something.
I guess I haven't tried to contact you these past six months is because I haven't had anything to say to you.
I still sorta don't,
all I have to say is that I still think about you from time to time and I think about all of the amazing times we had together,
but I really hope you are proud of who you have become, because when I see you at school, I don't even see the Cameron I used to be in love with, your like a shell of who you used to be, but it's your life to live, I'm not a part of it any longer.
I just wanted to say that all of the girls that you are talking to and then you don't talk to them at school, and you act like you don't know who they are, your breaking their hearts. It's heartbreaking for me to see, I have found 3 girls in the bathroom at school crying because you text them and facebook them and then you don't talk to them at school, or let alone acknowledge them. I've hugged them and told them that they deserve better.
I'm so disappointed with you you've become everything that you swore you would never become.
This letter is easy to write to you, because I am now over you and think of you as a chapter in my life that is now closed, never the less it was a fantastic chapter while it lasted.
Know that no matter what happens there will always be a part of my heart that belongs to you, and no one can ever have my whole heart.
And I'm sorry that I hurt you, that is my only regret in my life, I wish I could take it back because I know that things would be different between us and I'm positive that we'd still be together and happy, but everything in this life has a reason, and of that I am sure.
Thank you for teaching me everything, I know that I am a better and happier person because you were a part of my life. I know that a love like we shared doesn't come around too many times in a lifetime and consider myself an extremely lucky girl because for 3 years you were mine(:
That's all I have to say.
I hope you accomplish everything that you want to in your life,
and you get everything that you want because you truly deserve it.
I hope you wake up one day and have clarity and stop hurting so many people, because that's not who my camin was, and that's not who you are.
I'll always remember you.
Always
-Alex
As I look back on all that's happened...growing up, growing together, changing you, changing me there were times when we dreamed together, when we laughed and cried together. As I look back on those days, I realize how much I'll truly miss you and how much I truly loved you. The past may be gone forever...and what the future holds, our today’s make the memories of tomorrow. So, my lifetime friend, it is with all my heart that I send you my love, hoping that you'll always carry my smile with you, for all we have meant to each other and for what the future may hold.
