The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams

success isn't seen by where you've gotten in life, as much as it is the obstacles you've gotten over

All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them

Guys aren’t worth tears, and the one that is, won’t make you cry

I’m forever changed because of you and what you’ve meant to me

Don’t Make Someone Your Everything, Because When They’re Gone, You’ll Have Nothing

it`s amazing how i can have the worst day ever.. and all you have to do is smile to make it better

there's a spot in my heart that will never belong to anyone but you..

You're OOH so tough but i wanna be your first weakness

it hurts knowing he wont remember every little thing that i know i will never forget

you always seem to dissappoint me its like our inside joke, except its not funny

she's wrong for you.
.. i swear

sometimes, you think you've gotten over a person, but when you see him smile and suddenly realize, you're just pretending you're over him to ease the pain of knowing he will never be yours

its funny how the only person that can erase my tears, is the one who put them there

Just crank up the volume &
we can sing like superstars
& dance like we're famous

i love how i never liked myself
until you told me, your beautiful
and you gave me that smile that makes my heart
melt. i think i love you.

even if I was drop dead gorgeous,
and could have any guy in the world
i would still pick you

it's amazing how one
day someone walks
into your life && then
you can`t remember
how you ever lived
| without them |

mostly I am scared of walking out of this
room and never feeling the rest of my whole
life, the way I feel when I'm with you

she'll fall alsleep with her headphones on
mascara runnin' down her face
listenin' a song that reminds her of him

i love you is eight letters
so is bullshit

i want to be the girl that
he gives his hoodie to wear
and cuddles up next to me when its cold
i want him to come up behind me
and wrap his arms around my waist
catch me off guard and whisper
"baby you look beautiful"


Yeah I'd lie for those girls,
cry for those girls, take a
bullet and straight up die for
those girls because they're my
best friends

Never regret anything
because at one point in
time it was exactly what you wanted

forget the risk
take the fall
if its what you want
then its worth it all

Einstein's Three Rules of Work: 1) Out of clutter find simplicity; 2) From discord find harmony; 3) In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.

All mankind is divided into three classes: Those that are immovable, those that are movable, and those that move.

Bad is never good until worse happens.

Fear less, hope more,
eat less, chew more,
whine less, breathe more,
talk less, say more,
hate less, love more,
and all good things will be yours.

If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies in yourself.

If you judge people, you have no time to love them - Mother Teresa

Before you speak, listen. Before you write, think. Before you spend, earn. Before you invest, investigate. Before you criticize, wait. Before you pray, forgive. Before you quit, try. Before you retire, save. Before you die, give - William Arthur Wards

I asked God for strength, that I might achieve, I was made weak, that I might learn humbly to obey ... I asked for health, that I might do greater things, I was given infirmity, that I might do better things ... I asked for riches, that I might be happy, I was given poverty, that I might be wise ... I asked for power, that I might have the praise of men, I was given weakness, that I might feel the need of God ... I asked for all things, that I might enjoy life, I was given life, that I might enjoy all things ... I got nothing that I asked for, but everything I had hoped for. Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered. I am among all men, most richly blessed - Anonymous
