Only a chance to enjoy someone's company for a moment.<br /><br />Hate is baggage. Life's too short to be pissed off all the time.<br /><br />Wherever you go. no matter what the weather, bring your own sunshine. <br /><br />If he still sees the beauty in you and still falls more in love with you after seeing your weird facial expressions, your unusual laugh, your constant bitching, your ugly days, your pig out days, the way you toss and turn in your sleep, your stupid jokes, the way you ask questions about things you should already know the answers to but he answers them anyway, your obsessions with strange things, and your immaturity. Then you already know this is the boy. <br /><br />You can ignore me for as long as you want, but you can never change the memories I brought to your life.<br /><br />I have morals, integrity, most of all, character.

What happened to being young, living life, having fun, & not giving a fuck?<br /><br />God made the world round so that if you two people who are meant to be together should choose to take different paths in life, they would wrap around and end up right back to each other to meet again. <br /><br />If you're feeling frightened about what comes next, don't be. Embrace the uncertainty and allow it to lead you places. Be brave as it challenges you to excercise both your heart and mind as you create your own path towards happiness. Don't waste time with regret, and spin wildly into your next action. Enjoy the present, because you'll never get another one quite like it. But if you should ever look up and find yourself lost, simply take a breath and start over. Retrace your steps, and go back to the purest place in your heart- where your hope lives.<br /><br />Life is good, forget the forecast. Every day is sunny.<br /><br />"The only reason your girlfriend likes your dick is because her mom told her to enjoy the little things in life."<br /><br />"Does your ass ever get jealous of all the shit that comes out of your mouth?"<br /><br />"Hi my name is shower. If you turn me on, ill make you wet."<br /><br />"You're like a penny. Two faced, worthless, and dirty. I'm sure that's what you charge anyways."<br /><br />"My heart isn't your dick. So quit playing with it."<br /><br />"You know who's the reason for the big smile on my face? The first word in the sentence."<br /><br />"When judging how a guy will be, look at how he treats his family. That's how he will treat you."<br /><br />"That awkward moment when you yell "hey slut" and 15 girls turn around."<br /><br />"Guys only act like dicks to make up for the ones they don't have."<br /><br />"I can out eat you.. I guarantee about 90% of you read that wrong at first!"<br /><br />"who was the greatest prostitute in history? ms. pacman, for 25 cents that bitch swallowed balls until she died."Alex(:http://www.blogger.com/profile/03117018312661428504noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998733465842385792.post-39232022797804755612011-06-22T10:46:00.000-07:002011-06-22T11:39:25.297-07:00Love's a tree growing in your heart; better look out when the roots start. I'm the bloom that began such a long time ago. Now I'm waking up to the sounds of the birds whose shadows race me up her street. And though my feet may never catch a flying thing, well, I am damn sure of it.. I could catch you. I would never let you fall.<br /><br />I know it's been a tough year for a lot of people. And I know that when we get knocked down, it's the hardest thing in the world to imagine that someday things might ever seem different. And I know the bad days are really bad. Somebody broke your heart, somebody broke your dreams, or something happened that made you feel like things would never get better. But I don't think that's true. I think things get better. I think that good things come back around. I think that things change.<br /><br />People are gonna call you names everyday of your life. But you have to remember this one thing. It’s not what people call you, but what you answer to.<br /><br />if you’re going to talk, make sure you mean what you say<br /><br />We all want that guy. The one who will text us goodnight and goodmorning. The one that will call us beautiful and make us start to believe it. The one that's sweet. The one that makes you feel special, like you're not just another one. The one who can make you laugh. The one who looks in your eyes when you talk, and makes you smile. The one who you'll be comfortable around and make you forget about your insecurities. The one that tells us he loves us. The one who remembers little details and who goes out of his way to show you he cares.<br /><br />Shh..you hear that? that's the sound of nobody caring.<br /><br />Seriously slut, anyone could turn you on. You’re basically a lamp.<br /><br />I don't recall giving you a single reason to hate me, you create drama based on pure jealously.<br /><br />Dear slut, your right leg misses your left leg.<br /><br />She's just one of those people who creates drama out of her own insecurities, but nobody really gives a shit about it. So honestly I don't care if she hates me, she'll be over this hissy fit by next week.Alex(:http://www.blogger.com/profile/03117018312661428504noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998733465842385792.post-7168234059134019552011-06-13T17:06:00.000-07:002011-06-13T17:11:13.862-07:00Normal is only a setting on a washing machine.Alex(:http://www.blogger.com/profile/03117018312661428504noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998733465842385792.post-11689084884201250802011-04-06T17:22:00.000-07:002011-04-06T17:37:24.020-07:00I don’t care what people say, the rush is worth the<br />price I pay. I get so high when you’re with me, but<br />crash and crave you when you are away.<br /><br />She's anything but typical.<br />She's so unpredictable.<br />But even at her worst<br />she's not that bad.<br /><br />You know that point in your life when you realize that the house that you grew up in isn't really your home anymore? All of the sudden even though you have some place where you can put your stuff that idea of home is gone.<br /><br />Tomorrow is a blank page, just waiting to be filled with your dreams… All you have to do is be yourself and live the story of your own unique life. Be proud. Be confident. And most of all be happy.Alex(:http://www.blogger.com/profile/03117018312661428504noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998733465842385792.post-41724884366377417122011-03-19T16:46:00.000-07:002011-03-19T16:49:52.725-07:00It doesn't matter how tough we are, trauma always leaves a scar.<br />It follows us home, it changes our lives. Trauma messes everybody up, but maybe that's the point.<br />All the pain and the fear and the crap. Maybe going through all of that is what keeps us moving forward.<br />Its what pushes us. Maybe we have to get a little messed up, before we can step up♥ <br /><br />Life is always better with a smileAlex(:http://www.blogger.com/profile/03117018312661428504noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998733465842385792.post-4319563550158254302011-03-19T14:07:00.000-07:002011-03-19T16:31:10.009-07:00Faith allows things to happen. It is the power that comes from a fearless heart,<br />and when a fearless heart believes, miracles happen.<br /><br />You are every reason, every hope, and every dream<br />I've ever had, and no matter what happens to us in the future<br />every day we are together is the greatest day of my life.<br />i will always be yours. And, my darling, you will always be mine.<br />-- The Notebook<br /><br />There's a part of me that's going to be in love with you for the rest of my life.<br /><br />So good that I'm so bad. I guarantee I'd be the greatest thing that you ever had. <br /><br />At the time my life just seemed too complete, and maybe we have to break everything to make something better out of ourselves. –Fight Club<br /><br />Life is your professor, know that bitch is gonna test you.<br /><br />The best will come, eventually.<br /><br />Don’t waste your time on people who aren’t kind to you. In the long run, karma will always come into play and if you just take the high road, you’ll be fine.<br /><br />It’s time to love who you are and look forward to who you’re going to be.<br /><br />I fall hard and I fall fast. I fall into things that aren't meant to last.<br /><br />Love is rare, life is strange. Nothing lasts, people change.<br /><br />Walk with the dreamers, the believers, the courageous, the doers, the planners, the successful, people with their feet on the ground and their heads in a cloud. Let their spirits ignite a fire within you to leave this world a better place than you found it.<br /><br />Too many people miss the silver lining because they're expecting gold.<br /><br />The brave may not live forever, but the cautious do not live at all.<br /><br />Courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm. <br /><br />What makes some people important? It's not just the happiness that you feel when you see them, but it's also the pain you feel when you miss them.<br /><br />Words are bullets and they kill as good as any gun.<br /><br />I guess now I am realizing that my heart is too big for any guy out there because I get hurt all the time. I have beginning to get used to it and it fucking sucks but now I would rather be single then be treated like shit. I don't need a guy to make me happy.<br /><br />Your heart grew cold and mine grew smarter.<br /><br />No more kissing clocks or throwing coins into wishing wells to try and fix the way I fucked myself. When it’s finally here, it’s never enough. And when it’s finally gone, it’s never coming back.<br /><br />I trust the sun will set. I trust the world will end. I trust my gut. I trust death. I trust life. I trust anything that has not fallen through. I trust everything that has given me a reason.<br /><br />I've spent my entire life wanting more. Of reaching my hand out for that which I could never reach. Of never being enough. I've realized that it wasn't so much a case of never being able to reach, but of always reaching my hand out again. We always want what we don't have, and we always will. But acknowledging that fact is half of the fight. <br /><br />I'm not saying I'm the nicest. I just live life like it.<br /><br />Independent, motivated, the only thing I'm chasing is my ambitions.<br /><br />You will always be a part of my life. A happy memory, a good laugh, a tear or two. I won't forget you.<br /><br />I can take on as many classes as I want and go out every chance I get, but there's still always room for you in my mind.<br /><br />I've been watching, but the stars refuse to shine. I've been searching, but I just don't see the signs. I know that it's out there. There's gotta be something for my soul, somewhere.<br /><br />A player might take an occasional timeout, but he'll always return to the game.<br /><br />as we sit here tonight, this is not just an ending, but also a beginning, today is the last day of our high school lives and the first day of whatever we choose to do tomorrow, some of us may be attending a college or a university, while others may not yet be sure what path they want to take through their lives, either way, today is a beginning for a new phase of our life, on this day, we close the door to our past and look through the window to our future, there are some things from our high school experience that we will carry with us for the rest of our lives and some memories that we will choose to forget, but whether or not we choose to remember them, we will have no choice but to learn from them, that is what our lives are about, learning from our past and preparing for our future, so that we can succeed.Alex(:http://www.blogger.com/profile/03117018312661428504noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998733465842385792.post-20169424906146831872011-02-28T19:39:00.000-08:002011-03-19T16:30:59.873-07:00You were my lesson I had to learn.

It's been months, and everyday I remember something new.<br />It's like little pieces of wood floating to the surface, only hinting at the shipwreck beneath.<br /><br />Nothing is more memorable than a smell. One scent can be unexpected, momentary and fleeting, yet conjure up a child-hood summer beside a lake in the mountains; another, a moon-lit beach; a third, a family dinner of pot roast and sweet potatoes during a myrtle-mad august in a mid-western town. Smells denote softly in our memory like poignant land mines hidden under the weedy mass of years. They hit a tripwire of smell and memories explode all at once. A complex vision leaps out of the undergrowth.<br /><br />2. What they say, life goes on, is mostly true. The mail is delivered, and the christmas lights go up and down from the houses, and the ladders get put away, and you open yet another box of cereal. In time, the volume of my feelings would be turned down in gentle increments to near quiet, and yet the record would still spin, always spin.<br /><br />"A person can learn a lot from a dog, even a loopy one like ours. Marley taught me about living each day with unbridled exuberance and joy, about seizing the moment and following your heart. He taught me to appreciate the simple things-a walk in the woods, a fresh snowfall, a nap in a shaft of winter sunlight. And as he grew old and achy, he taught me about optimism in the face of adversity. Mostly, he taught me about friendship and selflessness and, above all else, unwavering loyalty." - Marley and Me by John Grogan<br /><br />Sometimes we don't ever move on...it's kind of like if someone was to dig a huge hole in the street, the first few times you would forget it's there and fall into it and get injured. But, as time goes on you rememer that it's there and you start reminding yourself to walk around it.<br /><br />That's why I don't do drugs or drink. I want everything I say or write to come from the heart, not a pill or a pipe.<br /><br />Maybe you can afford to wait. Maybe for you there’s a tomorrow. Maybe for you there’s one thousand tomorrows, or three thousand, or ten, so much time you can bathe in it, roll around it, let it slide like coins through you fingers. So much time you can waste it. But for some of us there’s only today. And the truth is, you never really know.<br /><br />"The only calibration that counts is how much heart people invest, how much they ignore their fears of being hurt or caught out or humiliated. And the only thing people regret is that they didn’t live boldly enough, that they didn’t invest enough heart, didn’t love enough."Alex(:http://www.blogger.com/profile/03117018312661428504noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998733465842385792.post-89658766947421333542010-12-28T08:13:00.000-08:002010-12-28T08:21:45.679-08:00In life you are the author of your own book. Writing in pen doesn't come out so easily. When you make a mistake you can't just erase it and pretend as if nothing happened. You can always try to cover it up with white out, but it's still there. Forget it, just turn the page over and have a fresh start. Remember your mistake from before, this is the time to make things right.<br /><br />You and I were different. We came from different worlds, and<br />yet you were the one who taught me the value of love.<br /><br />Be thankful for hard times in your life. Try not to look at them<br />as bad things, but as opportunities to grow and learn.<br /><br />I know you're upset about him. It's okay, be upset, cry, scream into your pillow till you think you've lost your voice. But looking back on this stupid boy who broke your heart in the future, you'll laugh at him, Laugh because he thought he was doing the right thing at the right time. Turns out he wasn't because he lost something amazing. And you'll thank him. Thank him for making you stronger, and to say to hell with him, I'm great. But most importantly you'll appreciate what he did, because without him leaving you wouldn't have found the amazing boy you're with now.Alex(:http://www.blogger.com/profile/03117018312661428504noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998733465842385792.post-10668021819862357372010-12-12T09:51:00.001-08:002010-12-12T10:33:52.748-08:00You will lose someone you can’t live without,and your heart will be badly broken, and the bad news is that you never completely get over the loss of your beloved. But this is also the good news. They live forever in your broken heart that doesn’t seal back up. And you come through. It’s like having a broken leg that never heals perfectly—that still hurts when the weather gets cold, but you learn to dance with the limp.<br /><br />When we first met, you were the sweetest boy i'd ever met. I was sure you'd treat me right. Now, i don't even know what i saw in you. Seriously, you are the biggest player at my school, but i didn't see it till now. Fuck that sparkle in your eye, you take advantage of it.<br /><br />Maybe that’s my problem. I open up to too many people, expecting them<br /> to do the same for me. And being crushed when i find out I’m just not worth it. <br /><br />Don't keep the past in your mind. Don't stress over the future. Because if you're too worried about what has already happened and what might happen, you can't focus on what's right in front of you. The present is what makes the future and what helps you move on from the pastAlex(:http://www.blogger.com/profile/03117018312661428504noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998733465842385792.post-35563735258635051492010-11-29T17:37:00.000-08:002010-11-29T17:43:57.901-08:00I 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.<br /><br />“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<br /><br /><br />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.<br /><br />“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<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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<br /><br />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.<br /><br />"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."<br />-The Truth About Forever by Sarah Dessen<br /><br />Only you yourself can give you the best advice.

Fear is stupid, so are regrets<br /><br />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.<br /><br />Cinderella said to Snow White<br />How does love get so off course<br />All I wanted was a white knight<br />With a good heart, soft touch, fast horse<br />Ride me off into the sunset<br />-this kiss faith hill<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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. <br /><br />Believe, that one single positive dream is more important than a thousand negative realities. <br /><br />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.<br /><br />You've got to be noisy and colorful and lively.<br /><br />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.<br />[Cinderella]<br /><br />You’re original, cannot be replaced<br />If you only knew what the future holds<br />After a hurricane comes a rainbow<br />Maybe you’re reason why all the doors are closed;<br />So you can open one that leads you to the perfect road<br />[Fireworks by Katy Perry]<br /><br />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.<br />[Rachel Scott]<br /><br />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.<br /><br />Beautiful,beauty,colorful,fire,good,gorgeous-a6381d716903a4b041717f653a6d93aa_h_large<br /><br />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.<br />Even when you’re falling.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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.<br />[Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat Pray Love]<br /><br />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.<br />[Sarah Dessen]<br /><br />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.<br />[Walt Disney]<br /><br />"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<br /><br />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.<br /><br />What you think is what you are. What you peruse becomes your reality.<br /><br />In a world of comparison and conformity, make your own statement.Alex(:http://www.blogger.com/profile/03117018312661428504noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998733465842385792.post-70898323721602295782010-11-20T13:47:00.000-08:002010-11-20T15:20:47.723-08:00throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.<br /><br />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<br /><br />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.<br />[CSI]<br /><br />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.<br /><br />I traced our names on a foggy window, and I watched them fade away, just like we did.<br /><br />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. <br /><br />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.<br /><br />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.<br />[One Tree Hill]<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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. <br /><br />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.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />Beauty comes from a life well lived.

Always hold it high.<br />Look the world straight in the eye.<br />Helen Keller<br /><br />So sometimes it might hurt,<br />so you probably will cry,<br />but the worst pain of all,<br />is not giving love a try.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />You have a purpose.

If you don't step forward your always in the same place." -Nora Roberts <br /><br />"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."<br /><br />"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<br /><br />“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.”<br /><br />"You couldn't have strength without weakness, you couldn't have light without dark, you couldn't have love without loss.<br /><br />"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."<br /><br />"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."<br /><br />Some of the best things in life are UNSEEN:<br />we close our eyes when we kiss, sleep and therefore dream.<br />love is not seen, it's felt.<br />you can't see the wind, but rather feel the breeze.<br /><br />The past is all memories, some of them will fade.<br />The future is what we create, day by passing day.<br />The present is a gift we too often toss away.<br /><br />“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.”Alex(:http://www.blogger.com/profile/03117018312661428504noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998733465842385792.post-86476247138791081852010-11-11T19:00:00.001-08:002010-11-11T19:00:19.230-08:00I don't need a rose, I want a daisy you picked for my hair.

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.Alex(:http://www.blogger.com/profile/03117018312661428504noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998733465842385792.post-65389216433286121292010-11-11T13:33:00.000-08:002010-11-11T13:51:00.771-08:00Cameron JohnCameron-<br />Since it's Christmas time I decided to write you a little something.<br />I guess I haven't tried to contact you these past six months is because I haven't had anything to say to you.<br />I still sorta don't, <br />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,<br />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.<br />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. <br />I'm so disappointed with you you've become everything that you swore you would never become. <br />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.<br />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.<br />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.<br />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(:<br />That's all I have to say.<br />I hope you accomplish everything that you want to in your life,<br />and you get everything that you want because you truly deserve it.<br />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.<br />I'll always remember you.<br />Always<br />-Alex<br /><br /><br />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.Alex(:http://www.blogger.com/profile/03117018312661428504noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998733465842385792.post-72148315361061718842010-10-11T19:43:00.000-07:002010-11-11T13:33:35.805-08:00Live your life from your heart.<br />-Melody Beattie<br /><br />Stop hearing<br />and start listening.<br />Stop touching<br />and start feeling.<br />Stop looking<br />and start seeing.<br />Stop existing<br />and start living.<br /><br />What makes life so wonderful<br />is that we're all given the opportunity<br />to have a wonderful life.<br /><br />Letting go of your past is easier to do when you're focusing on a brighter future.<br /><br />I'm not afraid of storms, for I am learning how to sail my ship.<br />-Helen Keller <br /><br />For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it.<br />For every truth there is an ear somewhere to hear it.<br />For every love there is a heart somewhere to receive it.<br />Ivan Pain<br /><br />You only have this day once,<br />You can make it wonderful and memorable;<br />or you can treat it just like any other ordinary day.<br />It's all up to you.Alex(:http://www.blogger.com/profile/03117018312661428504noreply@blogger.com0
