  • Today is beautiful

    Everyone believes very easily whatever they fear or desire. 


    Sometimes you have to test someone, not because you don’t trust them, but to see how much they’ll sacrifice for you.

    You shouldn’t have to sacrifice who you are just because somebody else has a problem with it.

    There are going to be days when you won’t have the energy or drive to get out of bed. There are going to be days when you’re going to want to give up – give up on love, life, or school. The thing is, you’re not allowed to give up. You were given a life and you’re supposed to live it. The truth is the seventy or eighty years that you’re given isn’t long enough to do the things you’re supposed to do. Sure, you’re gonna hit a few bumps along the way, but you’ve got to pick yourself up and move on. Life is unpredictable and things might not always work out the way you want them to, but that’s no reason to give up. You’re here for a reason and someday when you’re not expecting it, you’re going to discover your reason for being here. And when that does happen, your life will never be the same again.


    When it comes down to it I let them think what they want. If they just care enough to bother with what I do then, I’m already better than them anyway. 


    There are certain people who come into your life and leave a mark… the ones who are as much a part of you as your own soul. Their place in your heart is tender; a bruise of longing, a pulse of unfinished business. Just hearing their names pushes and pulls at you in a hundred ways, and when you try to define those hundred ways, describe them even to yourself, words are useless. If you had a lifetime to talk, there would still be things left unsaid.


    Trust is a fragile thing. Once earned, it affords us tremendous freedom. But once trust is lost, it can be impossible to recover. Of course the truth is, we never know who we can trust. Those we’re closest to can betray us. And total strangers can come to our rescue. In the end, most people decide to trust only themselves. It really is the simplest way to keep from getting burned.

    Stop competing with others, start competing with yourself.


    Don’t rely on someone else for your happiness and self worth. Only you can be responsible for that. If you can’t love and respect yourself – no one else will be able to make that happen. Accept who you are – completely; the good and the bad – and make changes as you see fit – not because you think someone else wants you to be different.

    The best feeling in the world is knowing you took the right step in the right direction, a step towards the future where everything you never thought was possible, is possible.

    I make mistakes. I have regrets. I hate being alone. I’m always late. I hate school. I never call anyone back. I don’t like being wrong. I’m a huge procrastinator. I act like I’m a lot tougher than I am. I hate being ignored. I cry. I’m shy. I get annoyed with people too easily. I have enemies. I can’t sing. I have horrible balance. I laugh really obnoxiously. I can’t trust anyone with my life. Many things just seem to get to me. I’m not perfect, but the beauty of it all is that I don’t care.

    Take a step back. Look at yourself. You are human, you are beautiful and you can be anything. You can be everything. Do not hate everyone because someone broke your heart, or because your parents split up, or your best friend betrayed you, or the kid down the street called you fat, ugly, stupid, worthless. Do not concern yourself with things you cannot control. Cry when you need to and let go when it’s time. Don’t hang onto painful memories just because you’re afraid to forget. Stop taking things for granted, stop taking life granted. Live for something, live for yourself. Fall in love. Fall out of love. Fall in love. Fall out of love. Do this over and over until you know what real love truly is. Question things. Tell people how you really feel. Sleep under the stars. Create. Imagine. Inspire. Share something wonderful. Meet new people. Make someone’s day. Follow your dreams. Live your life to its full potential. Just live damn it. Let go of all the horrible things in your life and just drop everything and live.

     There is no real definition for love. It could be that endless feeling of happiness you get from  being around that person or the butterflies you feel fluttering around inside of you when he smiles, but one thing I’m sure of is that we all fall in love sometime in our life, and when we do, then and only then, can we give our definition of love.

    Never be afraid to try something new because life gets boring when you stay within the limits of what you already know.
