“The world is not respectable; it is mortal, tormented, confused, deluded forever; but it is shot through with beauty, with love, with glints of courage and laughter; and in these, the spirit blooms timidly, and struggles to the light amid the thorns.”
― George Santayana “You educate a man; you educate a man. You educate a woman; you educate a generation.” ― Brigham Young “Never close your lips to those whom you have already opened your heart.” ― Charles Dickens |
"It's never too late - in fiction or in life - to revise." ~ Nancy Thayer

Some wounds never heal, they just stop bleeding.- Jacqueline Delisle
By the structure of the world we often want, at the sudden occurrence of a grave tempest, to change the helmsman - to replace the pilot of the calm by the pilot of the storm.- Walter Bagehot Who knoweth the mysteries of the will - for it can triumph even against the angels.- DH Lawrence - Lady Chatterley's Lover |
Love is what we were born with. Fear is what we learned here.
If I have been of service, if I have glimpsed more of the nature and essence of ultimate good, if I am inspired to reach wider horizons of thought and action, if I am at peace with myself, it has been a successful day~Alex Nobel What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly~Richard Bach (f) |
A TRUE FRIEND
A true friend never walks away A true will always stay A true friend looks out for you A true friend will guard your secrets Like a precious gift A true friend is there for you To give you a helpful lift A true friend tries to make you smile Tries to replace that frown They may not always succeed But they rarely let you down These arms for you are open This heart for you does care And when I think you need me I'll try to always be there I'll listen to your fears I promise not to laugh Comfort your falling tears I'll make this friendship last I'll keep you near to my heart I'll always hold you dear Even when we're miles apart Even when you're here I hope I am to you Everything you are to me For the friendship we have Is a special one indeed. |
Carousel (1945)
When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high And don't be afraid of the dark At the end of the storm Is a golden sky And the sweet silver song of the lark Walk on through the wind Walk on through the rain Though your dreams be tossed and blown Walk on walk on with hope in your heart And you'll never walk alone You'll never walk alone -Rogers & Hammerstein, II- |
"She walks in Beauty, like the night Of cloudness climes and starry skies, And all that's best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes..." Lord Byron |
Love is a passion that can't be exact. Its hard to know exactly what it is. We all love but once its burned away, it's gone. There's a difference between passionate liking and love. You have to determine by yourself. Lucas Roy.
"Crying is the only way your eyes speak when your mouth can't explain how things made your heart broken." |
"The mind is like a parachute. It doesn't work unless it's open."

I don't mind
:blueheels:
“I don't mind being burdened with being glamorous and sexual. Beauty and femininity are ageless and can't be contrived, and glamour, although the manufacturers won't like this, cannot be manufactured. Not real glamour; it's based on femininity.” ― Marilyn Monroe |
It is every easy to forgive others their mistakes; it takes more grit and gumption to forgive them for having witnessed your own.- Jessamyn West
A stout heart never went with a thin skin. Anyone who has the courage to act must find the courage to face his critics.- Burton Hills To spend before earning is to rest before working, to teach before learning, to speak before thinking, and to build before planning.- Dr. William A Ward |
Love Because of you, in gardens of blossoming Flowers I ache from the perfumes of spring. I have forgotten your face, I no longer Remember your hands; how did your lips Feel on mine? Because of you, I love the white statues Drowsing in the parks, the white statues that Have neither voice nor sight. I have forgotten your voice, your happy voice; I have forgotten your eyes. Like a flower to its perfume, I am bound to My vague memory of you. I live with pain That is like a wound; if you touch me, you will Make to me an irreparable harm. Your caresses enfold me, like climbing Vines on melancholy walls. I have forgotten your love, yet I seem to Glimpse you in every window. Because of you, the heady perfumes of Summer pain me; because of you, I again Seek out the signs that precipitate desires: Shooting stars, falling objects.” ― Pablo Neruda |
“Oh the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are...chaff and grain together...certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with the breath of kindness, blow the rest away.”
― Dinah Maria Mulock Craik “We are like sculptors, constantly carving out of others the image we long for, need, love or desire, often against reality, against their benefit, and always, in the end, a disappointment, because it does not fit them.” ― Anaïs Nin “Man may have discovered fire, but women discovered how to play with it.” ― Candace Bushnell |
I cannot express it: but surely you and everybody have a notion that there is, or should be, an existence of yours beyond you.
Emily Bronte |
The trick is in what one emphasizes. We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves happy. The amount of work is the same.
- Carlos Castaneda |
Listen to the Exhortation of the Dawn!
Look to this Day! For it is Life, the very Life of Life. In its brief course lie all the Verities and Realities of your Existence. The Bliss of Growth, The Glory of Action, The Splendor of Beauty; For Yesterday is but a Dream, And To-morrow is only a Vision; But To-day well lived makes Every Yesterday a Dream of Happiness, And every Tomorrow a Vision of Hope. Look well therefore to this Day! Such is the Salutation of the Dawn! -Kalidasa |
Happiness is like a butterfly; the more you chase it, the more it will elude you, but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder ...
Henry David Thoreau |
"If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place." ~ Nora Roberts

“Everything that happens in my life perfectly prepares me to fulfill my purpose!’

“Most dreams are also part reality (otherwise we wouldn't believe them), and reality happens to be a condition that gives you plenty of chances through your life to rise to—no, soar through—the occasion.”
— Leigh Newman |
