It’s amazing, some people, they just say these small little things, one sentence and it changes the way you feel about them in an instant. Small little words that can hurt you so much or make you fall deeply in love forever. It changes everything, nothing between you is ever really the same again, even if they don’t know it. ♥

There’s a big fucking world out there. It’s messy, and it’s chaotic, and it’s never, it’s never ever the thing you’d expect. It’s okay to be scared, but you can’t allow your fears to turn you into an asshole. Not when it comes to the people who love you, the people who need you. ♥

What I want is to be needed. What I need is to be indispensable to somebody. Who I need is somebody that will eat up all my free time, my ego, my attention. Somebody addicted to me. A mutual addiction. ♥

If you wait to do everything until you’re sure it’s right, you’ll probably never do much of anything. ♥

My love was a privilege that you abused. I have withdrawn that privilege. You are out of my heart. I wish you nothing but unending guilt. ♥

You want to know what happiness is? It’s waking up in the middle of the night for no reason, shifting under the blankets and feeling the heat of the person next to you. You turn around and see them in their most peaceful, innocent, and vulnerable state. They breathe as though the weight of the world lays on anyone’s shoulder but their own. You smile and kiss their face gently before turning back around and somehow, an involuntary grin forms on your face. Just before you drift off to sleep, you feel an arm wrap around your waist and you know it doesn’t get any better than this. ♥

I like how sleeping next to someone means more than sex sometimes, the bodies way of saying I trust you to be by my side at most vulnerable time, you have no defenses when you are asleep, you tell no lies. ♥

To me fearless is not the absence of fear. It’s not being completely unafraid. To me, fearless is having fears. Fearless is having doubts, lots of them. To me, fearless is living in spite of those things that scare you to death. Fearless is falling madly in love again even though you’ve been hurt before. Fearless is walking into your freshmen year of high school at fifteen. Fearless is getting back up and fighting for what you want over and over again even though every time you’ve tried before, you’ve lost. It’s fearless to have faith that someday things will change. Fearless is having the courage to say goodbye to someone who only hurts you even if you can’t breathe without them. I think it’s fearless to fall for your best friend even though he’s in love with someone else. And when someone apologizes to you enough times for things they’ll never stop doing … I think it’s fearless to stop believing in them. It’s fearless to say, “You’re not sorry,” and walk away. I think loving someone despite what people think is fearless. I think allowing yourself to cry on the bathroom floor is fearless. Letting go is fearless … then moving on and being alright, that’s fearless too. But no matter what love throws at you, you have to believe in it. You have to believe in love stories and prince charming’s and happily ever after. That’s why I write these songs … because I think love is fearless. ♥

I’m letting go of all my lonely yesterdays. I’ve forgiven myself for the mistakes I’ve made. Now there's just one thing, the only thing I wanna do . . I wanna love somebody, love somebody like you. ♥

When you truly care for someone, you don’t look for faults. You don’t look for answers. you don’t look for mistakes. Instead, you fight the mistakes. you accept the faults and you overlook excuses. The measure of love is when you love without measure. There are rare chances that you’ll meet the person you love and who loves you in return. So once you have it, don’t let it go. The chance may never come your way again. ♥

(Reply to this)

Let me tell you how you measure a man. When his world starts to fall see how tall he stand. It matters not how many times you fall down. What matters most is how many times you rise. Mistakes build character, and character takes you places money can't. ♥

You can spend minutes, hours, days, weeks, or months over-analyzing a situation; trying to put the pieces together, justifying what could've, would've happened... or you can leave the pieces on the floor and move the fuck on. ♥

You attract people by the qualities you display. You keep them by the qualities you possess. ♥

Sometimes we get so caught up with life we forget to thank the people that make our lives so special. Most of the time we take them for granted. And even though I've never met most of you, a special thanks is more than deserving at this point. People come in and out of our lives. Some stay longer than we want and others leave before we even have time to say goodbye. So before it's too late or before I fuck things up ... thank you. ♥

I'm the only card in the deck that's both a queen and a joker. Always classy while still being slightly inappropriate. ♥

God will never give you something somebody else is supposed to have. If it's yours own it, cherish it, embrace it. It's yours ! ♥

There's nothing more valuable than having someone in your life that reminds you of who you are. ♥

Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful. ♥

(Reply to this)

We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting what we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have. ♥

(Reply to this)

Remember that everyone you meet is afraid of something, loves something, and has lost something. ♥

There's nothing scarier than getting what you want cause that's when you really have something to lose. ♥

Lately, I've realized all I need is somebody who will listen to my bullshit, call me out on my bullshit, and love me despite my bullshit. ♥

Live life to the fullest. You never know if you or someone you love is going to wake up the next day, or out of nowhere, just die right before your eyes. Don’t take them for granted/advantage of, don’t get pissed at them for something so little, and the list goes on. You never know if you’re going to get a call that they’re not alive anymore. You may know them for a lifetime, a year or a month, but they can vanish in a second.. ♥

Do not seek the because - in love there is no because, no reason, no explanation, no solutions. ♥

(Reply to this)

The truth is I've never fooled anyone. I've let people fool themselves. They didn't bother to find out who and what I was. Instead they would invent a character for me. I wouldn't argue with them. They were obviously loving somebody I wasn't. When they found this out, they would blame me for disillusioning them -- and fooling them. ♥

(Reply to this)

Don't judge me based on what you think I said or what you think I meant. I am not perfect by any means. I make mistakes. But I know who I am at heart. ♥

(Reply to this)

At the end of the day, when it comes down to it, all we really want is to be close to somebody. So this thing, where we all keep our distance and pretend not to care about each other, is usually a load of bull. So we pick and choose who we want to remain close to, and once we’ve chosen those people, we tend to stick close by. No matter how much we hurt them, the people that are still with you at the end of the day, those are the ones worth keeping. And sure, sometimes close can be too close, but sometimes that invasion of personal space, it can be exactly what we need. ♥

(Reply to this)

Don't ever let somebody tell you... you can't do something. You got a dream... you gotta protect it. People can't do somethin' themselves, they wanna tell you you can't do it. If you want somethin', go get it. Period. ♥

When it comes to finding the right person, it all comes down to how well they know you, and how well they would be willing to get to know you. Finding a person who would understand your faults and love you for every single one of them. Someone who will cherish their time with you, and never doubt that you cherish their time with them. The person that can fight with you and hurt you, but still be there for you through thick and thin. It may not be the good guy, that makes thing easy, but it’s the right guy, the one that you love, and you know loves you back. ♥

(Reply to this)

In life you need one thing to survive. Simply the ability to realize shit happens. You step in it, you accept it, you get the fuck over it, and you keep walking. ♥

(Reply to this)

In my life i’ve come to realize that you can’t depend upon other people for what you want and you can’t be scared to go out there and get it. You have to dream hard, wish big, and chase after your goals. Because no one else is going to do it for you. And even if things don’t work out, you’ll always be able to say you tried. ♥

(Reply to this)

You may not know it yet, maybe you’ll never even think about it, but I’m special. You’re going to meet a lot of girls throughout your life, and a lot of them will be special to you. But I’m telling you right now, you’ll never find another me. ♥

Everyone wants success; yet, they often don't know when they have it. For most, success is the desire for a 'better life', or more quantities; however, success is not material wealth. It is not to be sought in the outside world, but discovered within. It is kindness shared, support given, and love sought. Success matters most when pain enters our lives. Pain hurts; yet, we must remember when tears are on the outside, healing is on the inside. Success will take us where we want to go; however, the designated driver of success lies somewhere hidden deep in the mysteries of love. ♥

To most people, the saying " to use someone " carries a negative connotation, but I don't see it that way. To " mis " " over " or " ab " use someone is negative. To use is necessary and if you can't be used . . . then you're useless. ♥

We all find ourselves in the valley of despair sometimes. It may sometimes seem that we are forever worrying, learning lessons, suffering pain, and facing challenges. But we must try to remember that the fertilizer that helps us "grow" is in those valleys, not on the mountain tops.

During the times that we feel scared and confused, we will always end up wiser and we will grow more from the experiences. We will understand more about people and life, become more sensitive, and we'll be able to enjoy life more after we go through the hard times.

We have to experience sadness so that we may better measure joy. Life has a way of balancing the sorrow with the joy, the disappointments with the hope, and the emptiness with the meaning. ♥

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. ♥

See in life things go wrong, if it don`t kill you it`s only gonna make you strong, so you must hold on. If everything was right then there`s something wrong. Ironic ain`t it, that`s just the way life is, that`s why I thank God any chance that I get for blessing me with beautiful kids. What`s victory with no loss, what`s smiling with no tears, what`s love with no hate, what`s courage with no fear? Just think about it and apply it to your life and no matter what the problem is, don`t worry baby, keep your head up it`s gonna be alright. ♥

No relationship is perfect, ever. There are always some ways you have to bend, to compromise, to give something up in order to gain something greater . . . The love we have for each other is bigger than these small differences. And that`s the key. It`s like a big pie chart, and the love in a relationship has to be the biggest piece. Love can make up for a lot. ♥

(Reply to this)

I`m not ashamed of what I am - of how I pass through this life. What I am has given me the strength to do it. At my lowest ebb I have never contemplated suicide. I value what is here too much. I have a contribution to make. I am not just taking up space in this life. I can add something to the lives I touch. I don`t like everything I know about myself, and I`ll never by satisfied, but nobody`s perfect. I`m not sure where the next years will take me - what they will hold - but I`m open to suggestions. ♥
