Always look at what you have left. Never look at what you have lost.

For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.

The world is smaller than you think, and the people in it are more beautiful than you think.
-Bertram van Munster


Adversity is the prosperity of the great.


The hard way is the right way.
-John Alves


Don't wait for someone else to make your life terrific. That's your job.




The winner says, "It may be difficult, but it`s possible."
The loser says, "It may be possible, but it`s too difficult."



Striving for excellence motivates you; striving for perfection is demoralizing.
-Harriet Braiker



With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts.
-Eleanor Roosevelt

sorry its been so long.
comment & i'll post again soon.

Have you ever been in love?
Horrible, isn't it?
It makes you so vulnerable.
It opens your chest & it opens your heart & it means that someone can get inside of you & mess you up.
You build all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor so that nothing can hurt you,
Then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person,
wanders into your stupid life...
You give them a piece of you.
They didn't ask for it.
They did something dumb one day, like smile at you, & then your life isn't your own anymore.
Love takes hostages.
It gets inside you. It eats you out.
& leaves you crying in the darkness,
so a simple phrase like
'maybe we should be just friends'
turns into a glass splinter working it's way into your heart.
It hurts.
Not just in the imagination.
Not just in the mind.
It's a real soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart-pain.
I hate love.
-- Neil Gaiman.

I will always remember...
It was late afternoon & I've seen you before.
You were always the cold one.
But I was never sure.
You were all by yourself staring at a dark gray sky.
No one would find all of your feelings deep inside
It was then that I realized that forever was in your eyes
The moment I saw you cry.

I'm not livin' without you.
I don't wanna be free.
You're the best man I've ever known
There's no way I can ever go.
Darlin', there's no way I'm livin' without you.

Yesterday,
I saw the sun shining & the leaves falling down softly.
& my cold hands need a warm, warm touch
& I was thinking of you.

nothing makes us so lonely as our secrets.
-paul tournier

We are not a common race.
With every generation we become fewer and harder.
We believe more and more in masks and makeup and static and anything to hide who we truly are.
We begin to shield ourselves and our eternally -
exposed searching souls from the bitter outside world where so little beauty remains recognized.
And thus we slowly become as the rest of the unenlightened
- sightless, stone-like, and cynical.

When you are not practicing, remember, someone somewhere is practicing,
and when you meet him he will win.

Envy is the ulcer of the soul.- Socrates

Me and Casey's one month anniversary today (=


Baby, seasons change but people don't
And I'll always be waiting in the back room
I'm boring, but overcompensate both
Headlines and flash, flash, flash photography


The road outside my house
Is paved with good intentions
Hired a construction crew
Cause it's hell on the engine
You are the dreamer
And we are the dream
I could write it better than you ever felt it


Last year's wishes
Are this year's apologies
Every last time I come home
I take my last chance
To burn a bridge or two
I only keep myself this sick in the head
Cause I know how the words get you


They say quitters never win
But we walk the plank on a sinking ship
There's a world outside of my front door
That gets off on being down


I'm a stitch away from making it
And a scar away from falling apart, apart
Blood cells pixelate
And eyes dilate
And the full moon pills got me out on the street at night


The truth hurts worse than anything I could bring myself to do to you


Do you remember the way I held your hand?
Under the lamp post and ran home
This way so many times
I could close my eyes


I wrote a goodbye note in lipstick on your arm
When you passed out
I couldn't bring myself to call
Except to call it quits


When I’m home alone I just dance by myself
And you pull my head so close volume goes with the truth
Signing off "I’m alright in bed but I’m better with a pen"
The kid was alright but it went to his head


And everyone's looking for relief
A bidding war for an old flame's grief
The cause, the kid, the course, the charm, and the curse
Not a word that could make you comprehend
Too well dressed for the witness stand
The press prays for whichever headline's worse


So hum hallelujah,
Just off the key of reason
I thought I loved you
It was just how you looked in the light.
A teenage vow in a parking lot
"Till tonight do us part"
I sing the blues and swallow them too




comments would be fantastic. (=

comment. pretty please? (=

You make me feel a way my heart has never felt before.

all my life i thought i needed
the perfect setting, the perfect
opportunity & the perfect way to
tell someone i love them but suddenly,
i realized i don`t need any of that
because i know it`ll be perfect
as long as i`m saying it to you.

and no matter what happens to us in the
future, everyday ive spent with you
is the best day of my life.

ok so i found out that my ex boyfriend most likely cheated on me.
haha and i felt bad for dumping the bastard.
anyway.. here's some quotes.


Softly we tremble tonight,
picture perfect fading smiles are all that's left in sight,
I said I'd never leave you'll never change
I'm not satisfied with where I'm at in life.

I'm sorry I've been so detached lately,
And that I can't even seem to find what to say.
I have all these thoughts inside my mind,
But I know you don't have time enough to stay.
I'll just continue thinking about this forever,
Even though you will never know...
And you will leave me one day and never come back.
But you won't know how much you meant to me.

I can't see anything;
those lights went out a long time ago.
So close your eyes,
I’ve tried so hard to forget these past years.
And I hate that I can't see your face
or find the words to say.

I am not the girl that you think I am.
I'll do my best to make myself unnoticed.
No matter how hard I try I can't change myself.
I am the girl that no one can understand,
Because no one can place themselves into my mind

Forget about perfect,
I was trying not to be worthless.



We live in an organized and graphic world.
All we really have to do is follow the dots and continue the lines.
If we do, life will be simple, and the picture will be complete.
However, it's the times we choose the wrong dots that makes life worth living.



It's always useful to know where a friend-and-relation is, whether you want him or whether you don't
- Winnie the Pooh



The difference between physical attraction and love is the
ability to see the same person at their best and at their worst,
still wanting and needing them the same as before.


Forget what you've heard, and recognize what you see


yeah,
let's fall in love
if only for tonight.


She doesnt own a dress, her hair is always a mess
If you catch her stealin, she wont confess
Shes beautiful
She smokes a pack a day, oh wait, thats me but anyway
She doesnt care a thing about that, hey,
She thinks Im beautiful
Meet virginia
She never compromises, loves babies and surprises
Wears hi-heels when she exercises
Aint that beautiful
Meet virginia
Well she wants to be the queen
Then she thinks about her scene
Pulls her hair back as she screams
I dont really wanna be the queen
Her daddy wrestles alligators, mama works on carburetors
Her brother is a fine mediator for the president
Well here she is again on the phone
Just like me hates to be alone
We just like to sit at home, and rip on the president
-Meet virginia...
