Deciduous...: The god always has a better plan.

“You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She's not perfect - you aren't either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break - her heart. So don't hurt her, don't change her, don't analyze and don't expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she's not there.”

― Bob Marley

Never fear shadows.

They simply mean there's a light shining somewhere nearby.

(Ruth E. Renkel)

“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

“I just broke up with someone and the last thing he said to me was "You'll never find anyone like me again!" I'm thinking, "I should hope not! If I don't want you, why would I want someone like you."

Before marriage, a man will go home and lie awake all night thinking about something you said; after marriage, he'll go to sleep before you finish saying it...(Helen Rowland)

We don’t see things the way they are. We see them the way WE are - Talmud.

The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past better than it was, the present worse than it is, and the future less resolved than it will be – Marcel Pagnol.

Happiness is like a butterfly.

The more you chase it, the more it eludes you.

But if you turn your attention to other things,

I think everyone should be told they’re beautiful until they believe it - Unknown

People were created to be loved. Things were created to be used. The reason the world is in chaos, is because things are being loved, and people are being used.

Dear Heart, fall in love only when you’re ready, not when you’re lonely – Anony-mouse.

”It’s impossible” said pride. “It’s risky” said experience. “It’s pointless” said reason. “Give it a try” whispered the heart - Anonymous

Being happy doesn’t mean that everything is perfect. It means that you’ve decided to look beyond the imperfections.

Find the guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will lie under the stars and listen to your heartbeat, or stay awake just to watch you sleep. The one who turns to his friends and says, “thats her” – Anony-mouse.

Be helpful. When you see a person without a smile, give them yours – Zig Ziglar.

Feelings come and feelings go. There is no need to fear them and no need to crave them. Let them come, and then let them go. No feeling is your permanent reality, no matter how intense it is.

When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us – Alexander Graham Bell.

People will hate you, rate you, shake you, and break you. But how strong you stand is what makes you – Unknown.
