Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are. It will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody

The world was made round so that if two people who are meant to be together should choose to take

different paths in life, they would wrap around and end up right back to each other to meet again.

I'm not wishing for an instant happily ever after. I'm just hoping for real and sincere love

that will make me believe that somehow, after everything, forever still exists.

I thought that it mattered what i said or where i said it. Then i realized the only thing that matters is that you make me happier than I ever thought i could be and if you let me I will spend the rest of my life trying to make you feel the same way.

One of the best feelings in life is discovering that you are still appreciated by someone, regardless on how somebody else have made you feel unworthy.

I've never had this many feelings for one person. don't get me wrong, I've fallen for people before. but it's different this time. this time, i feel so much.

I know in the back of my mind that life would be so much easier if I never talked to you again. If I shut you out of my life and moved on, I could finally get over you. But you're the only thing that makes me happy, whether it's right or wrong and I don't have the strength to give up on that.

Don’t get mad. Don’t get even. Get stronger, faster, and more powerful. Fill yourself with knowledge and empathy and an indomitable spirit because no one else can do that for you. In the end, it’s your life, you choice, and your world. Give 110%, always.

Have you ever thought that if one thing hadn't happened, a whole set of things never would have either? Like dominoes in time, a single event kicked off an unstoppable series of changes that gained momentum and spun out of control, and nothing was ever the same again. Don't ever doubt that a mere second can change your life forever.

It's funny when your close friends become strangers,
lollipops turn into cigarettes,
the innocent ones turn into sluts.
homework goes in the trash,
soda becomes vodka,
kisses turn into sex.
do you remember when getting high meant swinging on the playground?
when protection meant wearing a helmet?
when daddys shoulders were the highest place on earth
and your mom was your hero?
do you remember when your worst enemies were your siblings,
race issues were about who ran the fastest
& the only drug you knew was cough medicine.
or the only thing that hurt you was paper cuts and,
when goodbyes were only meant until tomorrow.
yeah and we couldn't wait to grow up.
