New Adventure

"go confidently in the direction of your dreams! live the life you've imagined." -henry david thoreau

"it feels like some kind of ride but it's turning out just to be life going absolutely perfectly." -brian andreas

"i hope you come to find that which gives life a deep meaning for you. something worth living for, maybe even worth dying for. something that energizes you, enthuses you, enables you to keep moving ahead. i can't tell you what it might be, that's for you to find, to choose, to love. i can just encourage you to start looking & support you in the search."

He's Just Not That Into You :)

"Girls are taught a lot of stuff growing up. If a guy punches you he likes you. Never try to trim your own bangs and someday you will meet a wonderful guy and get your very own happy ending. Every movie we see, Every story we're told implores us to wait for it, the third act twist, the unexpected declaration of love, the exception to the rule. But sometimes we're so focused on finding our happy ending we don't learn how to read the signs. How to tell from the ones who want us and the ones who don't, the ones who will stay and the ones who will leave. And maybe a happy ending doesn't include a guy, maybe... it's you, on your own, picking up the pieces and starting over, freeing yourself up for something better in the future. Maybe the happy ending is... just... moving on. Or maybe the happy ending is this, knowing after all the unreturned phone calls, broken-hearts, through the blunders and misread signals, through all the pain and embarrassment you never gave up hope"

Friends!

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. 
--Henri Nouwen

Hopeful!

"here we are. all of us, basically alone, separate creatures just circling each other. all searching for that slightest hint of a real connection. some look in the wrong places, some, they just give up. ... but all of us, we keep trying over & over again. why? because every once in a while, every once in a while two people meet & there’s that spark." -bones

Love.

"but there's another kind of love. one that gives you the courage to be better than you are, not less than you are. one that makes you feel that anything is possible. i want you to know that you could have that. i want you to hold out for it." -nights in rodanthe

A Medley of Being You...

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
-Bruno Mars

Pretty, pretty please, don't you ever, ever feel
Like you're less than perfect
Pretty, pretty please, if you ever, ever feel
Like you're nothing, you're perfect to me
-Pink

You just gotta ignite, the light, and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July
'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
-Katy Perry
