Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good or bad luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, if they be events, illnesses or relationships, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. 

If someone hurts you, betrays you , or breaks you heart, forgive them. For they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to who you open your heart to.

If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because they are teaching you to love and opening your heart and eyes to things you would have never seen or felt without them.

Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again.

Talk to people you have never talked to before, and actually listen. Hold your head up because you have every right to. Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don't believe in yourself, no one else will believe in you either.

You can make of your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it.

To every girl who gossiped about me in corners of parties, to those who were my slap in the face, to the close minded or misunderstanding, to those boys that broke my heart, and to those friends who turned out to be back stabbers. You all challenged me to become the person I wanted to be. I am stronger because of all the stupid things you put me through. No matter how much you have done to me, you have unknowingly done so much more for me. So, thanks.

On the phone a year later, he asked her if she missed him.
Her reply was "I don't miss you, i miss the guy who called me
every second he could, who sat home on Saturday nights when
we couldn't be together thinking of me..the guy who came to
my house after every fight, the guy who told me I looked like
a star, that's the guy i miss. How could I miss you? I don't
even know you."

IT'S WEIRD HOW YOU CAN GROW APART FROM YOUR FRIENDS
WHEN JUST LAST YEAR
THEY WERE THE MOST IMPORTANT PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE..

Don't ever wish for someone else's life. 
You don't know about the pain they feel,
or things they go through.
They just may hide their tears a little better

Sitting here counting the hours,
Waiting for the sun to kiss the sea
There are laws by the fragrance of the flowers,
It reminds me of you and me...

Sometimes I wish I could go back to the days
when I was six & my biggest problem was
what kind of dress to put on Barbie.

got three choices in your life
give in, give up, or give it your all..

Go up behind her and tickle her
she'll laugh & yell & tell you to stop
but secretly inside...she is loving it
you're her world to her<3

And I'm afraid. I'm afraid that I might never talk to you again. And I won't feel the same about anyone the way I feel when I'm with you. I'm afraid that you'll find someone else and feel different for some other girl. And I'll just be an old school memory.

let's go back to the beginning when our love was
something new, back when romance was important;
not just another thing to do.

\KISS L0NGER//LAUGH HARDER/
LOVE DEEPER//SMILE sweeter

I'm that girl... the one that is always lost. The one wit the fake smile & the girl who seems to be so strong, but daily continues to break down. That girl who's always there for all her friends, when not even her best friend can help her. The one who holds back tears until she's off the phone

We look for love because its the
closest thing we have to magic

You're just a boy that doesnt know whats infront of him
And I'm just a girl who doesnt want to let go

You think I'm running because I'm afraid. But really I'm walking away slowly giving you a chance to run after me. But you never do.

There's a fine line between lover and friend;
reality and pretend;
hello and goodbye
smile and cry;
what you wanted and what you got
being together and not.

 Everyone has a wildside.. I just prefer
to make mine public.

  Have you ever wondered which hurts more,
saying something
and wishing you hadn't
or saying nothing
and wishing you had?

  It's that. . Up all night. all the time. girl talk.
never fight
pinky promise. guarantee.
best friends forever.--? kinda thing

                    DANCE AT RANDOM TIMES,

          AND LAUGH FOR NO REASON

          BUT THATS WHO WE ARE..

          BEST FRIENDS. [FOREVER]

          because you never know how absolutely
          perfect something could turn out to be.

When im older and my lttle girl asks  who my first love was I dont wanna have to pull out the old photo album. I wanna be able to point across the room & say hes sitting right over there....

Take my picture tonight. I feel beautiful.

Wouldn't life be perfect if sweatpants were sexy,
Monday mornings were fun,
junk food didn't make you fat,
girls didn't cause drama,
guys weren't so confusing,
nothing was regrettable,
& goodbyes only meant until tomorrow

and most people uderestimate how much a single touch,a simple smile,a friendly wave,an honest compliment,and an act of caring...all of which have the potential to turn a life around<3

i`m a mess & my room usually is too.
i laugh at the stupidest things, and say the
wrong thing at the wrong times. i cry for
no reason. sometimes i get mad easily.
but i`m just me & thats all i can be.

&& the way you make me smile could
out-due a million beautiful sunsets

PlAY iN THE P0URiNG RAiN.
DANCE WHEN THERE'S N0 MUSiC.
WAlK BAREFO0T iN THE SAND.
lAY UNDER THE StARS.
L0VE LiKE N0 0THER.
SHARE SECRETS WiTH FRiENDS.
LAUGH UNtiL iT HURTS.
& REMEMBER EVERY MiNUtE 0F iT
BECAUSE Y0U 0NlY GET 0NE life

I dont ignore you, i just dont give a shit.
Im not a bitch, im honest. im not mean,
I just have jokes. im not insecure,
I just dont trust people

i'm done with all the late night crying
so i'm gonna tell you the truth & i aint lying
that i love you baby without denying
but theres no chance of me and& you
so whats the point of even trying..

she laughs at all the rumors
she hears about herself cause
she loves to hear those desperate
attempts to bring her down

I want someone who won't care that
I never wear shoes,
that I'm incapable of staying still,
that I can't grasp the concept of cleaning
& I refuse to be lady-like.
Someone who realizes that half the decisions I make, I'll regret and
I have the right to over-react at any given moment.
I want someone who knows I'm completely insane and they wouldn't want me any other way

She blows big bubbles with her gum
and laughs when they pop all over her pretty face.
She dances in her Victoria's Secret underwear.
She takes crazy pictures and
posts them on her Myspace.
And to her friends.. she's a star.
Because she realized that life is way too short
to be crying over the asshole that broke her heart.

Currently Listening Loose By Nelly Furtado man eater see related

she's beautiful, but she'll never admit it. technology is her life, literally. ask her for a good movie, she'll give you five. cute shirts and ripped jeans are her trademarks. she's afraid of the dark and obsessed with cherry coke. when she smiles her whole face lights up. her hearts been broken by a guy who doesn't love her. and you know what? she doesn't care.

I want to be someones last call of the night && their first thought in the morning. i want those 5 hour conversations that end in "no.. you hangup first". i want the heart racing, palm sweaty, "whats gunna happen next" moments. i want the hugs that you never want to let go of && the stolen kisses that are always the sweetest. but most importantly, i just want to know someone considers me theirs.

I'm so pissed at myself. That's right pissed at myself, not you. I'm pissed for always being nice, always apologizing for things I didn't do, for getting attached, making you my life, depending on you, wasting my time on you, thinking about you, following you, changing for you, forgiving you, wishing for you, dreaming of you, & most of all for not hating you, which I know I should, but I just can't.

you don't think that I knew you well? maybe I didn't
know the exact town you were born in, or the time
of day that you were born. maybe I didn't know the
names of all your aunts & uncles, & maybe I got some
of the names of your old friends mixed up. but don't try to
tell me that I didn't know you. I could see by the way you
looked when I passed you in the hallway what type of day
you were having. when you answered your phone. I could
tell what you were doing or how much fun you were having.
I knew when something was really wrong, cus your face
lost its brightness & I knew when you just needed a friend cus
I could tell from the sound of your voice. don't try to tell me I
didn't know you. I knew you more than everyone else.
don't say I forgot about you either. cus you know that
you pushed me away.

You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.

He is able who thinks he is able.

Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.

All that we are is the result of what we have thought.

A man should first direct himself in the way he should go. Only then should he instruct others.

Your work is to discover your work and then with all your heart to give yourself to it.

Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.

All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, We make our world.

Born out of concern for all beings.

All things appear and disappear because of the concurrence of causes and conditions. Nothing ever exists entirely alone; everything is in relation to everything else.

Love is the hardest habit to break, and the most difficult to satisfy.

When things are perfect, that's when you need to worry most.

We've got to learn there are going to be hard things in our lifetime, but it's love that gives you the strength. It's being nice to people and having a lot of fun and laughing harder than anything, hopefully every single day of your life.

Everyone is like a butterfly, they start out ugly and awkward and then morph into beautiful graceful butterflies that everyone loves.

The greatest happiness of life it the conviction that we are loved -- loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves.

Life is the flower for which love is the honey.
