people take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness. just because they're not on your road doesn't mean they've gotten lost. -dalai lama

smiles are golden. . .

when you get there,
remember where you came from ♥

the very least you can do in your life is figure out what you hope for. and the most you can do is live inside that hope. not admire it from a distance, but live right in it, under its roof. -barbara kingsolver

Anyone who says sunshine brings happiness
has never danced in the rain.

I believe that everything happens for a reason. You believe lies so you eventually learn to trust nobody but yourself. And sometimes, good things fall apart so better things can fall together.

-Marilyn Monroe

i'm too tired!!! WAH!!!

You have to take the good with the bad, smile with the sad, love what you got, remember what you had, always forgive, but never forget, learn from your mistakes, but never regret, people change, things go wrong, but just remember life goes on.

Sometimes the things you complain most about are the things you care most about. Unfortunately you don't always know that before it's too late. I wanted a perfect ending, now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what is going to happen next. -unknown author

"The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a glowing depth, beauty, and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing, it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of Divine accident." -Sir Hugh Walpoe

.a beautiful night with my lifetime friends.

congratulations to mr. and mrs. adam rubeshaw!!!

Remember tonight, for it is the beginning of always. A promise. Like a reward for persisting through life so long alone. A belief in each other and the possibility of love. A decision to ignore, simply rise above the pain of the past. A covenant, which at once binds two souls and yet severs prior ties. A celebration of the chance taken and the challenge that lies ahead. For two will always be stronger than one, like a team braced against the tempest civil world. And love will always be the guiding force in our lives. For tonight is mere formality. Only an announcement to the world of feelings long held. Promises made long ago. In the sacred spaces of our hearts. -Dante Alighieri

happiness isn't something you experience,

Every time you smile at someone,
it is an action of love,
a gift to that person,
a beautiful thing.

“I had a specific girl in mind who is both hard and soft.
A girl who discovers a new city, a new life.” adds Peter Philips.
“This is a very special kind of New York woman.
She is innocent, but she has a steely determination that fuels the city.”

so, i guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons.
and maybe we'll know most of them.
but even if we don't have the power to choose where we come from,
we can still choose where we go from there.
we can still do things. and we can try to feel okay about them.

-Charlie, The Perks of Being a Wallflower

every life comes with a story
and possibly a great adventure.

Sometimes you just have to be brave. You have to be strong. Sometimes you just can’t give in to weak thoughts. You have to beat down those devils that get inside your head and try to make you panic. You struggle along, putting one foot a little bit ahead of the other, hoping that when you go backwards it won’t be too far backwards, so that when you start going forwards again you won’t have too much to catch up.

-James Marsden
