Over the years I have developed a picture of what a human being living humanely is like. She is a person who understands, values and develops her body, finding it beautiful and useful; a person who is real and is willing to take risks, to be creative, to manifest competence, to change when the situation calls for it, and to find ways to accommodate to what is new and different, keeping that part of the old that is still useful and discarding what is not.  -Virginia Satir

             When you stop expecting people to be perfect, you can like them for who they are. -Donald Miller

No one outside ourselves can rule us inwardly. When we know this, we are truly free.  -Coral Anika Theill

We endure so much more than we think we can, all human experience testifies to that. All we need to do is learn not to be afraid of the pain. Grit your teeth and let it hurt. Don’t deny it, don’t be overwhelmed by it. it will not last forever. One day the pain will be gone and you’ll still be here. -Harold Kushner

                                                      Find you. Be you. Be happy with that.

Everything you're running away from is in your head.

"I finally figured out that the only reason to be alive, is it enjoy it."

"You are all together beautiful my darling, beautiful in every way." - Songs of Solomon 4:7

Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength.

It is impossible to live without failing, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all - in which case, you fail by default. 

If you care about what others think of you, then you will always be their slave. -James Frey

Sometimes, you need to step outside, get some air, and remind yourself of who you are and who you want to be.

                                                          You are good enough. Believe it.

The more you know who you are, and what you want, the less you let things upset you.

                                              What makes you different, makes you beautiful<3

"Be yourself. Above all, let who you are, what you are, what you believe, shine through every sentence you write, every piece you finish."

"Because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have." -Unknown

Nobody trips over mountains. It is the small pebble that causes you to stumble. Pass all the pebbles in your path and you will find you have crossed a mountain. -Unknown.

Believe that you can do it, under any circumstances. 
Because if you believe you can, then you really will. 
That belief just keeps you searching for the answers, 
then pretty soon you get it. -Wally Amos

                    I know there's a blue horizon, somewhere up ahead, just waiting for me<3

I am beautiful. I am wonderful. I am smart. I am capable. I am 

worth loving. I am worth fighting for.

                              When is it that we stopped being beautiful just as we are? 

"If you're lucky enough to be different from everybody else...don't change to be the same." -Taylor Swift

I must learn to love the fool in me- the one who feels too much, talks too much, takes too many chances, wins sometimes and loses often, lacks self-control, loves and hates, hurts and gets hurt, promises and breaks promises, laughs and cries. Theodore Isaac Rubin

"I want people to stay still for a while, and let something they have no power over wash over them, gladly, and be a little better for it." -Jeff Buckley

"If you can promise me anything, promise me that whenever you’re sad, or unsure, or you lose complete faith, that you’ll try to see yourself through my eyes."

"Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring." 

— Marilyn Monroe

     "Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending."

"Sometimes people are beautiful. Not in looks. Not in what they say. Just in what they are."

Love is when you look into someone's eyes, and see everything you need.

“How does one become a butterfly? You must want to fly so much that you are willing to give up being a caterpillar.” –Trina Paulus

When you run from something, it only stays with you longer. If you fight something, it only makes you stronger.

                          Don't miss all the beautiful colors of the rainbow looking for the pot of gold.

Tonight when you lay your head on your pillow, 

forget how far you still have to go. 

Look instead at how far you’ve already come.

You be the sun I'll be the moon, just let your light come shinning through; and when night comes, just like the moon, I'll shine the light back to you.

Wanting to be someone you are not, is wasting the person you are.

"Swans mate for life."

"I guess we're just a couple of swans then."

"Even after all this time, the sun never says to the earth, 'you owe me'. Look what happens with a love like that. It lights the whole sky." -Hafiz

Babe, close your eyes and count by twos. When you get to five, thats when I'll stop loving you :)

~Wild Horses I Want To Be Like You~

True beauty in a Woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she knows. ~Audrey Hepburn

Thanks for coloring my life...

You must love yourself before you love another. By accepting yourself and fully being what you are, your simple presence can make others happy.

Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.

"Sometimes the heart sees what is invisible to the eye."

"Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get." -Forrest Gump

“Without love, we are birds with broken wings.”

                      Some people care too much, I think it's called love.

Sometimes, when one person is missing, the whole world seems depopulated.

Never let go of anything you can't go a day without thinking about.
