Too many people get caught up in what could be 
instead of appreciating what is. Don't fall into that 
trap; appreciate what you have and who you have.
Because the future can take it all away from you

hope lies in dreams, in imagination, and in the courage of those who dare to make dreams into reality.
-jonas salk

Everything in your life is a reflection of a choice you have made. 
If you want a different result, make different choices.

I wanted everything to stay the same but feelings
fade and people change no expectations, no disappointments.

There's a story behind every person.
There’s a reason why they're the way they are. 
They aren't just like that because they want to.
Something in the past created them, 
and sometimes it's impossible to fix them.

i'm not single, && i'm not taken.
i'm simply on reserve for the one who has my heart ♥

there isn't much better in this 
life than finding a way to spend a 
few hours in conversation with people 
you respect and love. you have to 
carve this time out of your life because 
you aren't really living without it.

after a while, you grow up, and learn that 
some things are just meant to be left alone..
til' the day it all comes rushing back to you 
and you’re left with the hardest decision of your life.

Whether it was three years ago, today, or still to come. Whether it was just a moment, a whole day, or a whole summer, everyone has a time in their life when they wish everything would just stop. The world would stop turning and people would just stop changing, because to them at that time, everything was perfect. 

Sometimes you need to step outside, get some air, and remind yourself of who you are and who you want to be

Finding someone isn't about trying to change yourself into the perfect image of what you think they want; it's about being exactly who you are and finding someone who appreciates that.

When people walk away from you, let them walk. 
Don't try to talk another person into staying with you, 
loving you, calling you, & caring for you. When people
walk away from you, let them walk. Your destiny is
never tied to anyone that left.

Most of our life is a series of images, they pass us by like towns on the highway. But sometimes a moment stuns us as it happens, and we know that this instant is more than a fleeting image. We know that this moment, every part of it, will live on forever.
   - One Tree Hill

It’s not about who you’ve been with, it’s about who you end up with. Sometimes, the heart doesn’t know what it wants until it finds what it wants.
 -The Office

Sometimes we're too into the moment to look at the big picture. We fail to see things in perspective because we're too absorbed in what's taking place at that very instant. The thing is we should face reality. Find ourselves from being lost in the moment and think about everything the way that it is. Because sometimes being realistic can save us from pain and disappointment.

If everything's embarrassing, then you're never going to have any fun.

Never forget yesterday, but always live for today because you never know what tomorrow can bring or what it could take away.

Forget the risk and take the fall. If it's meant to be then it's worth it all.

The only thing that matters is just following your heart and eventuallyyou'll finally get it right.

Carpe diem, quan minimum credula postero.
"Seize the day while trusting little on what tomorrow might bring.

It's not where you came from, it's where you're going. It's not what's on you, it's what's in you. It's not what you drive, but what drives you that is important.

At the end of the day faith is a funny thing. It turns up when you don't really expect it. It's like one day you realize that the fairy tale may be slightly different than you dreamed. The castle, well it may not be a castle. And it's not so important happy ever after, just that it's happy right now. See, once in a while, once in a blue moon, people will surprise you and once in a while people may even take your breath away.

i ain't no dime and I ain’t no dollar. dimes get flipped and dollars get ripped. i'm priceless.

Goodbye drama. Hello I don't give a shit!

I've got a screw you attitude, a party hard personaility, and honestly, I don't care if I mean a damn thing to you.

you couldn't handle me even if I came with instructions

Date like a man so you don't get played like a bitch.

I always tell girls to never take it seriously. If you never take it seriously, you never get hurt and if you never get hurt you always have fun.

she a cool super duper down ass bitch, if she was a cup of liquor, i would down that bitch.

Take a broken girl, treat her like a famous princess, give her the best seats in the house. Buy her coffee & cigarettes for the coming down, books & bathrooms for the days ahead. Tell her something true when all she's known are lies. Tell her God loves her. Tell her about forgiveness, the possibility of freedom, tell her she was made to dance in white dresses. All these things are true.

Stay positive, beautiful, and blessed

Keep this in mind, one day, there's going to be a guy who's going to love you, your body, your smile, the way you walk, the way you talk, he's going to love you. And you're going to feel confident and on top of the world. One day, you won't feel insecure because you have someone who loves you for who you are. And I think that's when you know its love. When instead of feeling like you have to hide your flaws, and feel insecure and embarrassed, you feel unashamed, free, secure, safe, proud, happy, and confident. You feel loved. 

Obstacles are put in our way to see
if what we want is really worth fighting for.

Change has a considerable psychological impact on the human mind. To the fearful it is threatening because it means that things may get worse. To the hopeful it is encouraging because things may get better. To the confident it is inspiring because the challenge exists to make things better.

Letting go doesn’t mean we don’t care. Letting go doesn’t mean we shut down. Letting go means we stop trying to force outcomes and make people behave. It means we give up resistance to the way things are, for the moment. It means we stop trying to do the impossible–controlling that which we cannot–and instead, focus on what is possible

I love what you are and what you do and how you try. I've seen your kindness and your strength that carries you through. I've seen the best of you. I've seen the worst of you. And I understand with perfect clarity exactly what you are. And most importantly, I love you.

Maybe love, too, is beautiful because it has a wildness that cannot be tamed. I don't know. All I know is that passion can take you up like a house of cards in a tornado, leaving destruction in it's wake. Or it can let you alone because you have built a stone wall against it, set out the armed guards to keep it from touching you. The real trick is to let it in, but to hold on. To understand that the heart is as vast and wide as the universe, but that we come to know it best from here, this place of gravity and stability, where our feet can still touch the ground.

Surrender your habits, your lifestyle, your past, your present, and your future. This is your new surrender. The new surrender. 

I know dark clouds will gather 'round me.  I know my way will be rough and steep but beautiful fields lie just before me.

They say there are moments that open your life like a walnut cracked, that change your point of view so that you never look at things the same way again.

why the fuck do you give a shit of what a pathetic person says about you? - kid cudi.

there are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. 
when we are afraid, we pull back from life. when we 
are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with 
passion, excitement, and acceptance.

Before you talk, listen. Before you react, think. Before you criticize, wait. Before you pray, forgive. And before you quit, try.

Sometimes in life you just have to accept the way things are, when you can't change them. It's hard, but you''ll either learn to let go, or you'll get used to it altogether. At the end of the day, it's all the same heartache, but it's how you deal with it that makes all the difference.
