“breathe for love tomorrow, cause there’s no hope for today.” - Paramore
“Life, he realized, was much like a song. In the beginning there is mystery, in the end there is confirmation, but it’s the middle where all the emotion resides to make the whole thing worth while.” - from The Last Song

underneath God’s sky and
know me

Take away
this mask of flesh and bone and
see me
for my soul
alone”

If you can see the obstacles, you’ve taken your eyes off the goal.
you don’t fall “in” or “out” of LOVE…you grow in love. — Unknown
“These violet delights have violent ends
And in their triumph die, like fire and powder.
Which, as they kiss, consume”
- Shakespeare, in Romeo and Juliet
“but darling you are the only exception” - Paramore
“The one who loves least controls the relationship.”
“I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they’re right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.”
— Marilyn Monroe
And I love you more than I did before
And if today I don’t see your face
Nothing’s changed, no one can take your place
It gets harder everyday
Say you love me more than you did before
And I’m sorry it’s this way
But I’m coming home, I’ll be coming home
And if you ask me I will stay, I will stay
~ Stay, Miley Cyrus
“well behaved women seldom make history”
“Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.”
— Marilyn Monroe
Love never gives up.
Love cares more for others than for self.
Love doesn’t want what it doesn’t have.
Love doesn’t strut,
Doesn’t have a swelled head,
Doesn’t force itself on others,
Isn’t always “me first,”
Doesn’t fly off the handle,
Doesn’t keep score of the sins of others,
Doesn’t revel when others grovel,
Takes pleasure in the flowering of truth,
Puts up with anything,
Trusts God always,
Always looks for the best,
Never looks back,
But keeps going to the end.
Love never dies. ~ 1 Corinthians 13: 4-8a (The Message)
“Time passes, even when it seems impossible. Even when each tick of the second hand aches like the pulse of blood behind a bruise. It passes unevenly, in strange lurches and dragging lulls, but pass it does, even for me.” New Moon
“If you’re gonna be two-faced at least make one of them pretty.”
— Marilyn Monroe
“The hottest love has the coldest end.”
Socrates
“to live would be an awfully big adventure.”-peter pan
Psalm 34:17-18 (New International Version)
The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears them;
he delivers them from all their troubles.
The LORD is close to the brokenhearted
and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
“If you love something, let it go. If it comes back to you, its yours forever. If it doesn’t, then it was never meant to be.”
“This life is what you make it. Not matter what, you’re going to mess up sometimes, it’s a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you’re going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends - they’ll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they’re your true best friends. Don’t let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they’ll come and go too. And babe, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can’t give up becuase if you give up, you’ll never find your soul mate. You’ll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn’t mean you’re gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don’t, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life’s a beautiful thing and there’s so much to smile about.”
— Marilyn Monroe
“I would find a way without you.
That mistake was gold, I know without you
Is something that I could never do.” - Saosin
Be who you are and say what you feel, because those that matter don’t mind and those who mind don’t matter
“We were given: Two hands to hold. Two legs to walk. Two eyes to see. Two ears to listen. But why only one heart? Because the other was given to someone else. For us to find.”
having the love of your life break up with you and say “we can still be friends” is like having your dog die and your mom saying “you can keep it”
Cause when you’re fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
You’re gonna believe them
When you’re fifteen and your first kiss
Makes your head spin ‘round
But in your life you’ll do things greater than
Dating the boy on the football team
But I didn’t know it at fifteen
~ Fifteen, Taylor Swift
