* And then I realized, I do have faith. Faith in myself. Faith that I would one day meet someone who would be sure that I was the one. - Sex in the City.
* Apologizing does not always mean that you're wrong and the other person is right. It just means that you value your relationship more than your ego.
*Be yourself and quit trying to be everyone else.
* Acknowledge that you learn just as much, if not more, from your failures as you do from your successes.
* Don't ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive and then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.
* Its not about forcing happiness, its about not letting sadness win.
* "You've got to follow your passion. You've got to figure out what it is you love - who you really are . And have the courage to do that. I believe that the only courage anybody ever needs is the courage to follow your own dreams." - Oprah Winfrey.
* Being single used to mean that nobody wanted you. Now it means you're pretty sexy and you're taking your time deciding how you want your life to be and who you want to spend it with.
* "The saddest kind of sad is the sad that tries not to be sad. You know, when Sad tries to bite its lip and not cry and smile and go, "No, I'm happy for you."? That's when its really sad." - John Mayer
* I'm a lover and a fighter. I get angry easily, but I'm working on it. I party, sleep, and think too much, but I get my shit done. I have a weakness for sweettalkers, but I'm learning and enforcing my boundaries. I don't let many people in, but once their in, they're there forever. I'm strong and independent and I've been broken , but never shattered.
* People change. Feelings change. It doesn't mean that the love once shared wasn't true and real. It simply just means that sometimes when people grow, the grow apart.
* Your life is your message to the world. Make sure it's inspiring.
*"Because there's nothing more beautiful than the way the ocean refuses to stop kissing the shoreline, no matter how many times its sent away." -Sarah Kay

* Surround yourself with people who make you happy. People who make you laugh, who help you when you're in need. People who would never take advantage of you. People who genuinely care. They are the ones worth keeping in your life. Everyone else is just passing through.
* "Once a little boy sent me a charming card with a little drawing on it. I loved it. I answer all my children's letters - sometimes very hastily - but this one I lingered over. I sent him a card and I drew a picture of a Wild Thing on it. I wrote, "Dear Jim: I loved your card." Then I got a letter back from his mother and she said, "Jim loved your card so much he ate it." That to me was one of the highest compliments I've ever received. He didn't care that it was an original Maurice Sendak drawing or anything. He saw it, he loved it, he ate it." - Maurice Sendak
* Do not settle for less than exactly what you want. Your hearts desires are there for a reason. Chase them. Pursue them relentlessly. Do not lose sight of your goals. They are your very reason for being. -Franki Durbin
* T0 love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly be broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket- safe, dark, motionless, airless- it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, inpenetrable, irredeemable. The alternative to tragedy, or at least the risk of tragedy is damnation. The only place outside heaven where you can be perfectly safe from all the dangers and perturbations of love is hell. -Clive Lewis
* Darling, open your eyes. You are not made up of those words that hurt you. Or that number on the scale. Or the expectations that you feel you will never meet. You are made up of nothing more than you. Simply, beautifully, wonderfully, uniquely you. You are a lovely and complex soul. An individually fascinating combination of thoughts, ideas, feelings, emotions. No other is as beautiful as you. Look past the mirror. Look at your soul. Only then will you see yourself as you truly are. Beautiful. So smile! And don't forget to love yourself.
* To laugh often, to win the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of fast friends, and to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch... to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded. - Emerson
* Do the things you used to talk about doing but never did. Know when to let go and when to hold on tight. Stop rushing. Don't be intimidated to say it like it is. Stop apologizing all the time. Learn to say no, so your yes has some oomph. Spend time with the friends who lift you up, and cut loose the ones who bring you down. Stop giving your power away. Be more concerned with being interested than being interesting. Be old enough to appreciate your freedom, and young enough to enjoy it. Finally know who you are. -Kristin Armstrong
* "I'll take character over reputation. Your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are." -AJ Perez

*I'm a strong girl who keeps her stuff in line. Even when I have tears going down on my face, I always manage to say those two words; I'm Fine.
*Today I want you to ask yourself this one question. "Why not you?" Why not you to do something for work that you love? Why not you to have a healthy body? Why not you to have a healthy love? Why not you to be, have, or do anything you have ever dreamed?! We are so quick to think others are deserving over ourselves. The truth is that we are all deserving so why not you?! -Jillian Michaels
*Sometimes, you have to forget what you want to remember what you deserve.
*"If you find a girl who reads, keep her close. When you find her up at 2 am clutching a book to her chest and weeping, make her a cup of tea and hold her. You may lose her for a couple of hours but she will always come back to you. She'll talk as if the characters in the book are real, because for a while, they always are. Date a girl who reads, because you deserve it. You deserve a girl who can give you the most colorful life imaginable. If you can only give her monotany, and stale hours and half baked proposals, then you are better off alone. If you want the world, and the worlds beyond it, date a girl who reads." -Robert Pattinson
*"Don't feel stupid if you don't like what everyone else pretends to love." -Emma Watson
* Dear Jesus, sometimes I'm afraid of letting you have complete control of my life. Show me how to be a "yes" kind of girl, like Mary was, and use me to bring you to others. Amen.
* "No matter what happens in life, be good to people. Being good to people is a wonderful legacy to leave behind." -Taylor Swift
* "I have to be alone very often. I'd be quite happy if I spent every Saturday night until Monday morning alone in my apartment. That's how I refuel." -Audrey Hepburn
*See that girl? Yeah, she's the one who stuck up for you, the one who stayed up until midnight just to talk to you. She's the one whose heart flutters when she gets a call or a text from you. She's the one who fought for you, the one that missed and loved you. But by the time you realize that she's the girl you want... she'll be with the guy who figured it out.
* "Later that day I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you can find someone to love the you, you love, well, that's just fabulous." -Carrie Bradshaw, Sex in the City.
* Some people come in your life as blessings, others come in as lessons.

* You are every reason, every hope, and every dream I have ever had and no matter what happens to us in the future, everyday we were together was the greatest day of my life. -The Notebook
* A truly rich man is one whose children run into his arms, even when his hands are empty.
* "I may sound old-fashioned, but I want to think all women should be treated like I want my wife, daughters, and granddaughters to be treated. I notice today that good manners- like standing up when a woman enters the room, helping a woman with her coat, letter her enter an elevator first, taking her arm to cross the street- are sometimes considered unnecessary or a throwback. These are habits I could never break, nor would I want to. I realize today a lot more women are taking care of themselves than in the past, but no woman is offended by politeness." -Frank Sinatra. LOVE THIS.
* Sometimes, you have to forget what you want to remember what you deserve.
*When you seek beauty in all people and all things you will not only find it you will become it.
* The attitude you have as a parent is what your kids will learn from more than what you tell them. They don't remember what you try to teach them, They remember what you are. -Jim Henson
* "Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently-- they are not fond of rules .. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do." -Steve Jobs

* I love that Fred dies. Even though it completely shattered my heart, it made the world realistic. People seem to have missed the point of his death, which was that there was none. It bothers me when people say a different Weasley "should" have died. It was a war. Things don't always happen for a reason, and people don't always die because they deserve to. -J.K. Rowling
*"Yes, it is rather funny, really, that next to no one realized the snake that Harry set free in Sorcerers Stone turned out to be Voldemorts final horcrux, Nagini." -J.K. Rowling
* For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul.
* They didn't agree on much, in fact, they rarely agreed on anything. They fought all the time and they challenged each other every day. But despite their differences they had one important thing in common. They were crazy about each other.
* If a guy can't handle a girl in sweatpants, he sure as hell doesn't deserve her in a wedding dress.
* "The reason we struggle with insecurity is because we compare our behind-the-scenes to everyone elses highlight reel." -Steven Furtick

* The truth is everybody is going to hurt you. You just gotta find the ones worth suffering for. -Bob Marley

*Judging a person does not define who they are. It defines who YOU are.
* Cause you know what? Tragedies happen. What are you gonna do, give up? Quit? No. I realize now that when your heart breaks, you got to fight like hell to make sure you're still alive. Because you are. And that pain you feel? That's life. -One Tree Hill

* Found this little excerpt and LOVED it...
- AWESOME teacher. Love this little lesson. And so so true.
A meterology professor stood before his Meteorology 101 class and had some items
in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly he picked up a very large and
empty mayonaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the
students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. The professor then picked
up a jar of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The
pebbles, of course, rolled into the open spaces between the golf balls. He then
asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was. The professor
picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar and of course the sand filled
up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students
responded with a unanimous yes. The professor then produced two cans of beer
from under the table and then proceeded to pour the entire contents into the
jar, effectively filling the empty space between the grains of sand. The
students laughed. "Now", said the proffessor, as the laughter subsided, "I want
you to recognize this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important
things - your family, your partner, your health, your children, your friends,
your favorite passions -- things that if everything else was lost and only they
remained, your life would still be full. 'The pebbles are the other things that
matter, like your job, your house, your car. The sand is everything else -- the
small stuff. "If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued, "there is
no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for your life. If you
spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for
the things that are important to you. Pay attention to the things that are
critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical
checkups. Take your partner out dancing. Play another 18. "There will always be
time to go to work, clean the house, give a dinner party, fix the disposal. Take
care of the golf balls first - the things that really matter. Set your
priorities. The rest is just sand." One of the students raised her hand and
inquired what the beer represented. The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked.
It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's
always room for a couple of beers."
- AWESOME teacher. Love this little lesson. And so so true.

* We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benovolent, virtuous, and doing good to all men. Indeed we say that we follow the admonition of Paul- We believe all things, we hope all things, We have endured many things and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report, or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.
* What I've learned is not to change who you are, because eventually you are going to run out of new things to become.
*If we spend our days waiting for beautiful roses, we could miss the beauty and wonder of the tiny forget-me-nots that are all around us. - Dieter F. Uchtdorf
* Do not regret growing older. It is a privilege denied to many. - Unknown.
*A successful relationship requires falling in love multiple times, but always with the same person.
*"Don't ever fucking bully anyone and just so you know karma has everybody's address and a mother fucking stamp." -Lady GaGa
* At first glance it may appear too hard. Look again. Always look again. - Mary Anne Rodmacher
* Wisdom is nothing more than healed pain.
* I think the only reason people hold on to memories so tight, for so long is because memories are the only things that don't change even when people do.
* As we grow up , we learn that the people that weren't supposed to ever let us down, probably will. You'll have your heart broken & you'll break others hearts. You'll blame a new love for things an old love did. You'll fight with your best friend, you'll cry because time is flying by & eventually you'll lose someone you love. So take many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely, & love like you've never been hurt. Because every second you spend angry or upset, is a second of happiness you can never get back!
* "But I think the first real change in women's body image came when JLo turned it butt-style. That was the first time having a large-scale situation in the back was part of mainstream American beauty. Girls wanted butts now. Men were free to admit that they had always enjoyed them. And then, what felt like moments later, boom- Beyonce brought the leg meat. A pack porch and thick muscular legs were now widely admired. And from that day forward, women embraced their diversity and realized that all shapes and sizes are beautiful. Ah ha ha. No. I'm totally messing with you. All Beyonce and JLo have done is add to the laundry list of attributes women must have to qualify as beautiful. Now every girl is expected to have Caucasian blue eyes, full Spanish lips, a classic button nose, hairless Asian skin with a California tan, a Jamaican dance hall ass, long Sweedish legs, small Japanese feet, the abs of a lesbian gym owner, the hips of a nine-year-old boy, the arms of Michelle Obama, and doll tits. The person closest to actually achieving this look is Kim Kardashian, who, as we know, was made by a Russian scientist to sabotage our athletes." - Tina Fey
* For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul.
- Good relationships don't just happen. They take time, patience, and two people who truly want to be together.

*"Don't ever fucking bully anyone and just so you know karma has everybody's address and a mother fucking stamp." -Lady GaGa
* At first glance it may appear too hard. Look again. Always look again. - Mary Anne Rodmacher
* Wisdom is nothing more than healed pain.
* I think the only reason people hold on to memories so tight, for so long is because memories are the only things that don't change even when people do.
* As we grow up , we learn that the people that weren't supposed to ever let us down, probably will. You'll have your heart broken & you'll break others hearts. You'll blame a new love for things an old love did. You'll fight with your best friend, you'll cry because time is flying by & eventually you'll lose someone you love. So take many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely, & love like you've never been hurt. Because every second you spend angry or upset, is a second of happiness you can never get back!
* "But I think the first real change in women's body image came when JLo turned it butt-style. That was the first time having a large-scale situation in the back was part of mainstream American beauty. Girls wanted butts now. Men were free to admit that they had always enjoyed them. And then, what felt like moments later, boom- Beyonce brought the leg meat. A pack porch and thick muscular legs were now widely admired. And from that day forward, women embraced their diversity and realized that all shapes and sizes are beautiful. Ah ha ha. No. I'm totally messing with you. All Beyonce and JLo have done is add to the laundry list of attributes women must have to qualify as beautiful. Now every girl is expected to have Caucasian blue eyes, full Spanish lips, a classic button nose, hairless Asian skin with a California tan, a Jamaican dance hall ass, long Sweedish legs, small Japanese feet, the abs of a lesbian gym owner, the hips of a nine-year-old boy, the arms of Michelle Obama, and doll tits. The person closest to actually achieving this look is Kim Kardashian, who, as we know, was made by a Russian scientist to sabotage our athletes." - Tina Fey
* For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul.

November 29, 2011
* One day at a time -- this is enough. Do not look back and grieve over the past for it is gone; and do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet to come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful it will be worth remembering. Happiness is a journey.
* If you fight like a married couple, talk like best friends, flirt like first loves & protect each other like siblings.. it is meant to be.
* To lose someone you love is to alter your life forever.. The pain stops, there are new people, but the gap never closes... This hole in your heart is the shape of the one you lost - no one else can fit it. - Jeanette Winterson
* Just because I'm nice to you, doesn't mean I like you. It just means I'm not rude.
* Believe nothing, no matter where you read it or who has said it, not even if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense. - Buddha
* Do not give up, the beginning is always the hardest.
* When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.
* You were born an original; Don't die a copy. - John Mason
* Be the person that makes others feel special. Be known for your kindness and sympothy.
* I fell in love with you because of a million tiny things you never knew you were doing.
* Every relationship has its problems but what makes it perfect is when you still want to be there when everything sucks.
* You are going to come across people in your life who will say all the right words at all the right times. But in the end, it's always their actions you should judge them by. It's actions, not words, that matter. - Nicholas Sparks
* Be happy not because everything's perfect nor because everything goes your way. Be happy because everything sucks, but you are doing just fine.
* Worrying does not empty tomorrow of its troubles, it empties today of it's strength. - Mary Engelbrett
* Perhaps they are not stars in the sky, but rather openings where our loved ones shine down to let us know they are happy.
* If you didn't hear it with your own ears or see it with your own eyes, don't invent it with your small mind and share it with your big mouth.
* I'm a good enough person to forgive you, but not stupid enough to trust you.
* Expect anything from anyone. The devil was once an angel. -Drake
* EXAMINE WHAT YOU TOLERATE.
* Instead of wishing you were someone else be proud of who you are. You never know who has been looking at you wishing they were you...
* "I don't want to look like EVERYONE else. I don't have perfect teeth; I'm not stick thin. I want to be the person who feels GREAT in her body and can say that she doesn't want to change ANYTHING." - Emma Watson
* Just because we don't talk doesn't mean I don't think about you. I'm just trying to distance myself because I know I can't have you. - Wiz Khalifa
* You can say sorry a million times, say I love you as much as you want, say whatever you want, whenever you want. But if you're not going to prove that the things you say are true, then don't say anything at all. Because if you can't show it, your words don't mean a thing.
* This is for the girls who don't always win. The girls who stay up all night listening to music that inspires them. The girls that laugh, smile, cry and think all on daily basis. The girls who love, learn, and regret. The girls who may never have it easy. The girls who learn the hard way to live and tell about it. The real girls.
* You can spend minutes, hours, days, weeks, or even months over-analyzing a situation; trying to put the pieces together, justifying what could've, would've happened .. or you can just leave the pieces on the floor and move the fuck on. - Tupac.
* The couples that are meant to be are the ones who go through everything that is designed to tear them apart and come out even stronger than they were before.
* The best feeling comes when you realize that you are perfectly happy without the people you thought you needed the most.
* I think everyone should take the attitude that we're working to be a champion. That we want to be a champion in everything we do. Every choice, every decision, everything we do every day. We want to be a champion. - Nick Saban
* When another person makes you suffer, it is because he suffers deeply within himself, and his suffering is spilling over. He does not need punishment, he needs help. - Thich Naht Hahn
* "He is more myself than I am. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same." - Emily Bronte
* Because believing that the dots will connect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart, even when it leads you off the well worn path. - Steve Jobs
*Never think that what you have to offer is insignificant. There will always be someone out there that needs what you have to give.
* "Here's all you have to know about men and women: women are crazy, men are stupid. And the main reason women are crazy is that men are stupid." - George Carlin
* You only live once, and the way I live, once is enough. -Frank Sinatra
* I'm not an expert at relationships. I don't know how to handle every fight we are going to have, and I will never be a perfect person. We're both still young, and we still have a lot more to learn. But I'm willing to take chances, to risk it all, and learn everything there is to know just so I can keep us together. I won't give up on you.
* Go into the world and do well. But more importantly, go into the world and do good.
* "There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth; not going all the way, and not starting." -Buddha
* "When we feel love and kindness towards others, it not only makes others feel loved and cared for, but it helps us also to develop inner happiness and peace." -Dalai Lama
* The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, answered, "Man. Because he sacrifices health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived."
* Each of us has responsibility for all humankind. It is time for us to think of other people as true brothers and sisters and to be concerned with their welfare, with lessening their suffering. - Dalai Lama
* It is hard to beat a person who never gives up. -Babe Ruth.
* People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness. Just because they're not on your road doesn't mean they've gotten lost. - Dalai Lama
* "Every day, think as you wake up, today I am fortunate to have woken up, I am alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it, I am going to use all of my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others, to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings, I am going to have kind thought towards others, I am not going to be angry, or think badly about others, I am going to benefit others as much as I can." - Dalai Lama
* The Paradox of Our Age: We have bigger houses, but smaller families; more conveniences, but less time; We have more degrees, but less sense; more knowledge, but less judgement; more experts, but more problems; more medicines, but less healthiness; We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbor. We built more computers to hold more information to produce more copies than ever, but have less communication; we have become long on quantity, but short on quality. These are times of fast foods, but slow digestion; Tall man, but short character; steep profits, but shallow relationships. It is a time when there is much in the window, but nothing in the room. - Dalai Lama
* All major religious traditions carry basically the same message, that is love, compassion and forgiveness. The important thing is they should be part of our daily lives. - Dalai Lama
* "I believe the world is as we choose to view it. Simple as that. Our happiness is, in the end, up to us, and to no one else." - Susan Fletcher
* "The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies, no excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. The gift is yours- it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins. - Bob Moawad

I found this and I thought it was beautiful..
Paul Newmans letter to his wife on their wedding day..
"Happiness in marriage is not something that just happens. A good marriage must be created. in the Art of Marriage, the little things are the big things. It is never being too old to hold hands, it is remembering to say 'I love you' at least once a day. It is never going to sleep angry. It is at no time taking the other for granted; the courtship should not end with the honeymoon; it should continue through all the years. It is having a mutual sense of values and common objectives. It is standing together facing the world. It is forming a circle of love that gathers in the whole family. It is doing things for each other, not in the attitude of duty or sacrifice, but in the spirit of joy. It is speaking words of appreciation and demonstrating gratitude in thoughtful ways. It is not expecting the husband to wear a halo or the wife to have the wings of an angel. It is not looking for perfection in each other. It is cultivating flexiblity, patience, understanding and a sense of humor. It is having the capacity to forgive and forget. It is giving each other an atmosphere which each can grow. It is finding rooms for things of the spirit. It is a common search for the good and the beautiful. It is establishing a relationship in which the independence is equal, dependence is mutual and obligation is reciprocal. It is not only marrying the right partner, it is being the right partner. "
How romantic :)

November 11
* I want a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot. Who calls you back when you hang up on him. Who will stay awake just to watch you sleep. The boy who kisses your forehead. Who wants to show you off to the world. Who thinks youre pretty without makeup on. Reminding you of how much he cares about you and he is lucky to have you.
* Never let the odds keep you from doing what you know in your heart you were meant to do.
* i think everything in life is art. what you do, how you dress. the way you love someone, and how you talk. your smile and your personality. what you believe in, and all your dreams. the way you drink your tea, how you decorate your home. or party. your grocery list, the food you make. how your writing looks, and the way you feel. life is art.
* Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone elses life. Don't be trapped by dogma- which is living as a result of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary. -Steve Jobs
* It's the rule of life that everything you have always wanted comes the very second you stop looking for it. - Sex in the City.
* Be the person your dog thinks you are.
* At the end of the day you can focus on what's tearing you apart, or what's holding you together.

Learn to say no, so your yes has some oomph. Spend time with the friends who lift you up, and cut loose the ones who bring you down. Stop giving your power away. Be more concerned with being interested than being interesting. Be old enough to appreciate your freedom, and young enough to enjoy it. Finally know who you are. -Kristin Armstrong.

* Life is too short to spend time with people who suck the happiness out of you.
* The best relationship is when you two can act like lovers and best friends. It's when you have more playful moments than serious moments. It's when you can joke around, have unexpected hugs, and random kisses. Its when you two give each other that specific stare and just smile. It's when you'll rather chill inside to watch movies, eat junk food, and cuddle than go out all the time. It's when you'll stay up all night just to settle your arguments and problems. It's when you can completely act yourself, and they can still love you for who you are.

* next time you're stressed: take a step back, inhale and laugh. remember who you are and why you're here. you're never given anything in this world that you can't handle. be strong, be flexible, love yourself, and love others. Always remember, just keep moving forward.
* "If ever there is tomorrow when we are not together... there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we're apart ... I'll always be with you."

* Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone elses life. Don't be trapped by dogma- which is living as a result of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary. -Steve Jobs
* It's the rule of life that everything you have always wanted comes the very second you stop looking for it. - Sex in the City.

So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt. Because every sixty seconds you spend upset, is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.
*Do what you feel in your heart to be right, you'll be criticized anyway. - Eleanor Roosevelt
*Throughout life people will make you mad, disrespect you and treat you bad. Let God deal with the things they do, cause hate in your heart will consume you too. - Will Smith
** The most beautiful people we know are those who have known defeat, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen. - Elizabeth Kubler Ros
* Marriage: If you want something to last forever you treat it differently. You shield it and protect it. you never abuse it. You don't expose it to the elements. You don't make it common or ordinary. If it ever becomes tarnished, you lovingly polish it until it gleams like new. It becomes special because you have made it so, and it grows more and more beautiful as time goes by.
*Don't confuse your path with your destination. Just because it's stormy now, doesn't mean you aren't headed for sunshine.
* Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking, and don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. - Steve Jobs
* Never be afraid to try something new. Remember amateurs built the ark, Professionals built the Titanic.
* Take chances. Tell the truth. Date someone totally wrong for you. Say no. Spend all your cash. Get to know someone random. Be random. Say I love you. Sing out loud. Laugh at stupid jokes. Cry. Apologize. Tell someone how much they mean to you. Tell a jerk what you think. Laugh til your stomach hurts. Live life. Regret nothing.
* We are all a little weird and life's a little weird. and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love. - Dr. Seuss
* I wish to never be parted from you from this day on. -Mr. Darcy
* Treat your girl like you would want your dad to treat your mom, and how you would want your future son in law to treat your daughter.
* Sometimes the right path, is not always the easier one. - Grandmother Willow, Pocahontas
* Hold hands every chance you get. Be the best you can be. Marry your best friend. Listen. Hug often. care more, love deeply, treasure always. Be the first to say I'm sorry. Kiss good morning, kiss and make up, kiss just because, kiss goodnight. Always be willing to compromise. Respect one another. Be a team player. Remember why you fell in love. Make a promise to each other to find time to be alone together. Don't forget to laugh. Love Each Other.
* It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all - in which case, you fail by default. - J.K. Rowling
* The greatest thing a father can do for his daughter is to love her mother. - Elaine S. Dalton
* I love you means that I have accepted you for the person that you are, and that I do not wish to change you into someone else. It means that I do not expect perfection from you - just as you do not expect it from me. It means that I will love you and stand by you even through the worst of times. It means loving you when you're in a bad mood, or too tired to do the things I want to do. It means loving you when you're down- not just when you are fun to be with. I love you means that I know your deepest secrets and do not judge you for them- asking in return only that you do not judge me for mine. It means that I care enough to fight for what we have and that I love enough not to let go. It means thinking of you, dreaming of you, wanting you and needing you constantly, and hoping that you feel the same way for me.
* Find someone who will never get tired of kissing you everyday. Who'll hug you when youre jealous. Who will understandingly keep silent when you are mad. Who'll squeeze your hand when youre not in the mood. Who'll plan and imagine the future with you in it. And when you find someone, never let them go.
* And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you, because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic, will never find it. - Roald Dahl
* If I ever push you away, I don't really mean to. When I tell you I don't want to talk about it, i do, i'm just looking for the right words. give me a minute, and if i can tell you, i will. I try to be a struggling mix of real and perfect at the same time. At the moment, I am working on the ratio. When I get really quiet sometimes, its becasue I have too much to say. I have thought of too many things to tell you all at once, and I don't know what to say first. I get immaturely jealous of anyone who gets to see you on a daily basis. I miss you really easily, but I also like that we can be apart, and we are both ok. Space is good, too. I love the way we love some of the same things, and I love how we love entirely different things. My head is a complicated pile of thoughts, and fears, and cravings, and nostalgia for the past, and somehow, for the future. I am flawed, and i am human, and i am broken, and i am trying. and i am one person, and i am two hands, and i am one heart. and i love you. I'm so glad youre here.
* Things that matter most, must never be at the mercy of things that matter least.
* This is your LIFE. Do what you love, and do it often. If you don't like something, change it. If you don't like your job, quit. If you don't have enough time, stop watching TV. If you are looking for the love of your life, stop; they will be waiting for you when you start doing things you love. Stop over analyzing. All emotions are beautiful. When you eat, appreciate every last bite. Life is simple. Open your mind, arms and heart to new things and people, we are united in our differences. Ask the next person you see what their passion is, and share your inspiring dream with them. Travel often. Getting lost will help you find yourself. Some opportunities only come once, Seize them. Life is about the people you meet, and the things you create with them. So go out and start creating. Life is short. Live your dream, and wear your passion.
* Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swaps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have never been able to reach. The world you desire, can be won. It exists.. it is real... it is possible... it's yours. -Ayn Rand
* Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you have decided to look beyond the imperfections.
* You only have one life, do whatever you want. Within 100 years nobody will remember the stupid mistakes you made. So make a fool of yourself while you still have the chance. Because if you spend all your life trying to be the coolest kid around, You will never be happy with yourself.
* Enjoy the little things in life, for one day you'll look back and realize that those were the big things.
* There is no passion to be found in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living. - Nelson Mandela
* Your journey has molded you for your greater good, and it was exactly what it needed to be. Don't think that you've lost time, it took each and every situation you have encountered, to bring you to the now. and now is right on time. -Asha Tyson
* Only an open heart allows you to float freely across the Universe.
* Respect people that find time for you in their busy schedule. But love people who never look at their schedule when you need them.
* Just because you don't see results after a day or even a week, don't give up, you may not see changes, but every smart choice you make is affecting you in ways you'd never imagine.
* Promise yourself to be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. Look at the sunny side of everything & 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. - Christian D. Larson
* He is not perfect. You aren't either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human, and making mistakes , hold on to him and give him the most you can. He isn't going to quote poetry, he is not thinking of you every moment, but he will give you a part of him he knows you can break. Don't hurt him, don't change him, and don't expect more than he can give. Don't analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he's not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don't exist, but there is always one guy that is perfect for you. - Bob Marley.
* You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, "I have lived through this horror, I can take the next thing that comes along." You must do the thing you think you cannot do. - Eleanor Roosevelt
*We must all make the choice between what is right, and what is easy. - Professor Dumbledore
*Fact: The wedding ring goes on the left ring finger because it is the only finger with a vein that connects to the heart
