my favorite quotes and sayings, just allot of things that have meant allot to me.
I know that this page seems long..but I really hope that people actually take time to read it...because it really makes allot of sense!
So many people have given me advise over the past year..and even though they meant well, unless you've been through the crap I've been through..then you just don't know. I appreciate it anyway..and to all of you who have been there and listened to me ... Thank You! Maybe this page will let you know how much it meant!
Don't wait to live life, because it won't wait for you!
It took hearing that to make me realize...no it wasn't easy and yes it hurt, but you have to make yourself happy..nobody can do it for you! And you can't very well expect to make someone else happy if your miserable.
I've lived in this place and I know all the faces;
I'm moving on, at last I can see
I sold what I could, and packed what I couldn't,
Thank you Eddie!
"Always leave something to wish for; otherwise you will be miserable from your very happiness"
"My creed is that:
"The moments of happiness we enjoy takes us by surprise. It is not that we seize them, but that they seize us."
"When one door of happiness closes, another one opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us."
"A wise man makes his own decisions, an ignorant man follows the public opinion."
"The past is a ghost, the future a dream, and all we ever have is now."
"How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and the strong. Because someday in life you will have been all of these."
"It's only when we truly know and understand that we have limited time on earth-and that we have no way of knowing when our time is up-that we will begin to live each day to the fullest, as if it was the only one we had."
"Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life."
It's nice to come and read it whenever I'm down, it makes me realize yet again, that it's time to pick myself up, dust myself off, and walk on.
"Real isn't how you are made," said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real."
"Does it hurt?" asked the Rabbit.
"Sometimes," said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. "When you are Real you don't mind being hurt."
"Does it happen all at once, like being wound up," he asked, "or bit by bit?"
"It doesn't happen all at once," said the Skin Horse. "You become. It takes a really long time. That's why it doesn't often happen to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand ... but once you are Real you can't become unreal again. It lasts for always."

A year ago...when my whole roller coaster ride started..I felt like it was just easier to be somewhere and be unhappy, than to hurt somebody else. I look back now and wish that I had not wasted so much time. Life is too short to live for anybody else. Words of Wisdom...
Sometimes when your hurt the pain seems overwhelming, and it is very hard to deal with..you wonder why and what if, but the truth is that if it were meant for us to know..then we would know. And life would then be a very boring place..yes you could miss all the pain, but I still think that it is better to have lost at love than never to have loved at all.
I want to take a minute to talk about Eddie...
I first want to say thanks for being my friend, we have been the topic of many conversations and the subject of many rumors..but that never stopped you from being there..and the advice you gave me, meant the world to me. You made me see allot of things .. the way things really are, and when it hurt to see the truth you listened to me cry.
And even if some people think your a dawg... *smiling*, I know the sensitive you, and you are one of my best friends. I will be here for you and I will love you forever and always!
Finally content with a past I regret.
I've found you find strength in your moments of weakness -
For once I'm at peace with myself.
I've been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long.
I'm moving on.
Each one is different, but they're always the same.
They mean me no harm but it's time that I faced it:
They'll never allow me to change.
But I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong.
I'm moving on.
That life has been patiently waiting for me.
And I know there's no guarantee
But I'm not alone.
There comes a time in everyone's life
When all you can see are the years passing by,
And I have made up my mind that those days are gone.
Stopped to fill up on my way out of town.
I've loved like I should, but lived like I shouldn't.
I had to lose everything to find out.
Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road.
I'm moving on.
I'm moving on.
I'm moving on.

The place to be happy is here.
The time to be happy is now.
The way to be happy is to make others so."
