When God permits suffering, He also provides comfort.

If you look close enough to the world around you, you might find someone like you.
Someone trying to find their way.
Someone trying to find their self.
Sometimes it seems like you are the only one in the world who's struggling, who's frustrated, unsatisfied, barely getting by.
But if you just hold on, just find the courage to face it all for another day, someone or something will find you and mak
e it all okay because we all need a little help sometimes.
We need someone to remind us that it won't always be this way.
That someone is out there,
And that someone will find you
.
The best relationship is when you two can act like lovers and best friends.
It's when you have more playful moments than serious ones.
It's when you can joke around, have unexpected hugs and random kisses.
It's when you two give each other that specific stare and just smile.
It's when you'd rather chill inside to watch movies, eat junk food and cuddle than go out all the time.
It's when you'll stay up all night to just to settle your arguments and problems.
It's when you can completely act yourself and they can still love you for who you are.
There are times that you two don't even have to talk. Just being able to smell the sweet scent is enough communication.
It's when you both love to take pictures to capture every special moment together.
It's when you finish each other's sentences, make pancakes for breakfast and have coffee in the middle of the night just for the heck of it.

Every day might not be good, but there is always something good in every day when you spend it with the one you LOVE. For HAPPINESS IS ALWAYS REAL WHEN SHARED.


As we grow up, we learn that even the only person that wasn't supposed to ever let us down, probably will. You'll have your heart broken and you'll break other's hearts. You'll fight with your best friend or maybe even fall in love with them. You'll cry because time is flying by, so take many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely and love like you've never been hurt.


Life comes with no guarantees, no time outs, no second chances.You just have to live life to the fullest and tell your loved ones how they mean to you. Speak out, dance in the pouring rain, hold someone's hand, comfort a friend, watch the sun come up, stay up late and smile until your face hurts.Don't be afraid to take chances, or fall in love and most of all, live in the moment because every second you spend angry or upset is a second of happiness you can never get back.

LOVE rewards the Brave

If you are going to fall in love with me, It's only fair that you know what you are falling in love with. 

You are falling in love with my insecurities and my obsession with trying to figure out what everyone thinks of me. You are falling in love with my immaturity, my constant need to feel loved and appreciated, and my overactive tearducts. You fall in love with my troubled past, and my hopes and dreams, and how I'm a hopeless at heart. If you fall in love with me, you fall in love with my self-hate and all my imperfections and my perception that nobody could ever love me.

But you are also falling in love with the way my eyes smile when I'm with you... The way I'll text you in the mornings just telling you I hope you have a great day. You're falling in love with the occasionally humorous and thought-provoking things I say, and the way I blush when people ask me about you.

But to me, the most important thing will be that you are falling in love with me, despite me thinking that it is impossible.


We try to live responsible, logical lives, but we can't tell our hearts how to feel. Sometimes our hearts lead us to places we never thought we wanted to go, and sometimes our hearts can make us feel miserable, angry, excited and confused all at once. But at least my heart is open.


It seems to me the only thing that matters, the only thing that's even real, is the here and now. And some stuff are more important and some stuff aren't; and I guess time is the only thing that can sort out which is which. That just means, the more we live in the present, the more we hold on to people, places and things. I have come to realize that things can change without a warning. So no matter how much you love something, or no matter how much you take it for granted, nothing lasts forever. So for now, all we can do is hang on and wait... and see and hope... for the future.

Things I've Found To Be True

1. It is easier to find satisfaction and happiness in helping others and to mean something to someone else, than it is to help yourself.

2. Everyone is just as scared and self- conscious as you are.

3. If you really want something and you put your heart and mind; then you can get it if you work hard enough. 

4. You can never make someone love you through effort and changes. 

5. Treat people the way you would like to be treated. It doesn't matter how people treated you in the past. There are no excuses in being kind.

6. Be honest. Everyone is telling the same lies because they are scared. Lying will never get you anywhere that good.

7. Show empathy and compassion...  We are all fighting for a good life. Everyone is just trying to do their best, everyone makes mistakes, and everyone is a bad person sometimes.

8. It is okay to love people without any reasons at all. Your heart chooses who it wants; it is out of your control.

9. Embrace your desire to be close to someone;  to share yourself with them... to make them happy... How is that a bad thing? Being in a relationship with someone doesn't have to mean that you own them. It doesn't have to be a world in which you can only want, desire and touch that one person. A relationship is a commitment with mutual support so why would you want someone you love to not find other things and people that make them happy? If you trust them, then believe them when they say "You're the one I want to spend my days with".

10. Not everyone has the same opinion about everything. So even if there are some people who wouldn't like you, there are always people who do.

11. If you love what you are doing, you'll never get bored. Same with if you love someone, then you'll never get tired.

12. The art of being happy lies in the power of extracting happiness from common things.

13. Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal.

14. Life is not that bad at all. If you stop exaggerating.

15. Not all those who wander are lost. Even the weariest river winds somewhere safe to sea.

16. Mistakes are easier to live with when we know we're not alone.

17. To live is the rarest thing in the world, most people exist, that is all.

18. Twenty years from now you will be more dissapointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.



One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure its worth watching. :)

Give Up... Give in... or Give It Your All

In life, we have three choices. Given a choice too hard to overcome, or we simply don’t want to put the effort, we give up. Usually, there will be an event in which we don’t necessarily give up, but we collapse, we give in to the event, not staying strong. Then, there are those miracles in which we not only overcome that event or issue, but we gain it’s strength. This is when we give it our all. 

Everyday is a choice. We can die, or we can survive, we make that choice. We look at the positive, and the negative. We then decide if we’d rather fight for the positive, or loom over the negative. We fight for ourselves, for others, or us with someone. It’s hard looking at the positive, telling yourself everything will be ok, that nothing will go wrong, it’s difficult. It’s easy telling yourself nothing will be right, everything will be ruined, that way, you don’t fall down from your own hope. This is the problem. People focus too much on what they could lose, rather than what they keep. They would rather see everything go wrong, that way, they could be right. Instead of seeing everything go right, and possibly being wrong. This isn’t the way we’re suppose to think. It’s your life. You choose what you want. You know what you want and why you want it, no one else.

Why bring yourself down for a reason that doesn’t exist yet? Why hurt yourself by depriving yourself of hope and love? We all can do it. You just have to believe in yourself. At the beginning, I didn’t have much hope. I thought that if I didn't hope enough, I wouldn't get hurt. I told myself that if I kept my feelings from fully developing, I would be ok. In the end, all I regretted was not taking that chance. It’s easy making a mistake and fixing it. You did something wrong, you regret about it, and you try fixing what you did. But it isn’t that easy all the time. How about the things you can’t fix? How can you fix something that never happened? What if you’re the one who regrets not making it happen? What then? You can’t go back and fix it, because nothing is there. You didn’t want to get hurt, so you ignored what could happen. You let it pass you by as if you would never look back upon it again. Now, here you are, wishing you made that difference. And it’s too late, you’ll feel that regret for a very long time, if not forever. 

Don’t give in, and don’t give up. You want that relationship to last, then make it last. Because what happens once you end it, and you found out all you had to do was one thing, say one thing, and it would still exist? Go back? You can, but it will be hard rebuilding that trust and faith. Don’t make that mistake, in any case at all. 

Keep dreaming. Dream all day, everyday. Hope as long as you want. Wish on anything and anyone. No one can take that away from you, only you can. 

Feel happy. Feel confident. If you can’t feel confident in yourself, take shelter in another person you love and care for. 

This is what us dreamers have to remember. The dream only ends when we wake up, and it only appears when we want to dream. 

Look at what you have. Just take some time and think about what you have. Think how you got there, and think how long it took. Remember all the sacrifices you had to make, all the fears you had to shut off, all the tears you killed by making it appear. You got to where you are, and you have what you have, because you got yourself there. You made the time to get there. You felt all those emotions. You smiled, and you cried. 

You have something special, something no one else will ever have as you. It’s one, and only one. You can’t duplicate what you have. Think about this, all of it. How happy it makes you feel. Be careful though, because you could lose it all. One word could ruin it. One simple action could tear what you built from your heart. All of it, gone to waste. What once made you smile, what once made you wake up smiling, what once made you dream, is now all but a memory. You only tore it apart because you torn yourself apart with it. Without you, it’s nothing. And without it, you’re nothing. It can be something special, or someone special. Either way, you had that special connection, a connection no one else will ever share with you or them, or it. A connection you broke because you didn’t think it through, a broken chain because you didn’t want to hold on anymore, and you let it break. What takes forever to build, may only take one second to destroy. Please, don’t make that mistake. Realize what you have, how you got a hold of it, and most importantly, why you’re still holding on.

The reason why you hold on now should never disappear. Remember, whatever, or whoever is holding on the other end doesn’t want to let go just like you.

Don’t let go.
