Life's crazy when you think about how it goes by so fast....

-Be mindful of what you toss away,
be careful what you push away, and
think hard before walking away.

-Some of the most interesting friendships are between people who are attracted to each other, but can't act on it.

-There were times when he caught me, but more times when he let me fall. And it finally came time for me to learn that I could pick myself up off the ground and walk away.Her best days will be some of my worst, she finally met a man that's gonna put her first.While I'm wide awake, she's no trouble sleeping, 'Cause when a heart breaks, no it don't break even, even no. What am I supposed to do when the best part of me was always you? What am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up and you're ok? I'm falling to pieces.

-Before, my fear was being vulnerable. The ability of another human being to possibly tear apart your insides at any moment was enough to keep my running. He, however, made my insides come alive, my smile become permanent, laughter more frequent. He took away my fear and gave me hope. But more importantly, for the first time in my life, instead of wanting to run, he gave me a reason to stay.

I guess what makes me different from most girls is that I'm not the type to squeal all over you and I don't ask for your attention at all times. I know what I want and I know howto get it, but I don't hurt people along the way. I can be a bitch, but I'm also a weird obnoxious loser. But hey, that's the truth in me. I guess you can say I'm complicated, but I would rather be difficult than easy any day. I can be hard to figure out at times, but if you know me, I'm not that much of a confusing person. So why don't you actually openup your heart instead of just your eyes and take a look at me, then tell me that you love me.

Love is passion, obsession, someone
you can't live without. If you don't start
with that, what are you going to end up
with? Fall head over heels. I say find someone
you can love like crazy and who'll love you the
same way back. And how do you find him? Forget
your head and listen to your heart. I'm not
hearing any heart. Run the risk, if you get hurt,
you'll come back. Because, the truth is there is
no sense living your life without this? To make the
journey and not fall deeply in love well, you
haven't lived a life at all. You have to try. Because
if you haven't tried, you haven't lived.

Between laughing for no reason.
stupid arguments, long talks,
and making fun of each other...
I fell in love

Just knowing that he's there for me,
Makes me feel like I have everything
That I need in my life.

Look for someone who is a best friend more than someone you're in love with, because when
you're old, greying, wrinkled & all; it's the friendship that endures more than the passion & being loved.

Love is a word that is often overused. When someone says "I love those shoes" they don't literally mean they "love" the shoes. They just likethem. Our generation has told too many people "I love you". People say it like it's nothing. Just something that you are "supposed" to say. It begins to lose its true meaning. No one understands what love really means until they meet that one person that you want to be with every second of every day. The one person that could make you fall apart. The person that cancontrol your mood. The person that, if they died, you wouldn't know how you were going to go on. The person that can make you smile when you want to cry. The person that no matter how much they have hurt you, you still want them, & couldn't imagine being without them. The person that when just imagining who they have been with & what they have done with them could just bring tears to your eyes. Some people mistake that if you love someone, everything has to be perfect with them. That you will never fight, never argue. No. That just appears to be love, & what we want to believe is love. When you love someone, you are with them through thick & thin, thegood & the bad. So when using the word "love", think about it. Don't just say it because you think it's the right moment to say it, or because you think you are supposed to say it.

Bottom line: couples who are truly right for each other wade through the same crap as everybody else, but the big difference is, they don't let it take them down

sweetheart, he's just a lesson you needed to learn.

I wonder when I pass by, does his stomach do a flip? Does he get nervous? Does he ignore his friends, just to look at me? Does he wait to see me smile? Does he get sweaty palms? Does he think to himself, "Oh gosh, here she comes?"

im laying here and im thinking...wow im 21...and its been a year since i looked at you smiled and said yes :)

I'm a girl:
I have my good days and my bad days, & sometimes I take it out on others.
When my iPod is blasting, the rest of the world gets tuned out.
There's a boy that I can't seem to stop thinking about.
[he's the reason I look forward to school everyday]
I can't go a day without saying or doing something silly.
I truly don't know what I'd do without my friends-
[they know how to make me happy and are always there for me]
I can be stubborn, bitchy, and a little clueless at times,
& sometimes, in one day, dozens of things go wrong..
But when I step back and look at things clearly,
I realize how much I truly appreciate life, with every imperfection,
I know that I'm still young, I know I have a lot to learn,
and I don't want to grow up too fast.

I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day, and I believe in miracles.

Laying under a blanket, cuddling close to you, feeling your breath on my skin, taking every sense that you have within. Your lips touch my shoulder, kissing me so sweet, making my heart skip every other beat. Don't give up, it's beginning. Nice guys always end up winning.

You forgot that kisses mean something
and second glances come
more often than second chances
and forgiveness is far from surfacing here
cause love is not a game we play

I only want to go back to the days where "Daddy" could solve everything, it didn't matter whether you were a boy or girl while playing catch with friends. Curfew was at eight so you wouldn't be late for your bath, and the only heartbreak you had is when your puppy ran away. I only want to be a kid again. [i dont want to go back..i just like remembering]

you've got a choice;
you can either make a wish or make it happen.

Everyone has a certain part in their lives where they truly wish they could just freeze time.
Whether it was three years ago, today, or still to come.
Whether it was just a moment, a whole day, or a whole summer.
Everyone has a time in their life when they wish everything would just stop.
The world would stop turning and people would stop changing because to them,
at that time, everything was perfect.

i guess if you don't jump, you'll never know if you'll be able to fly...

you, with all your little flaws
and all your little quirks, somehow,
keep drawing me back in.

have you ever found your old journal and looked though it all thinking "wow, was i dumb..."

I'm having another "seemed like a good idea at the time" moment

She was a girl who knew how to act happy ... even when she was sad. And that's important.

Staring at my shoes, thinking of something to say.
Nothing's better than what silence is saying.
Every time I turn around, he's always looking
away, it's just the nature of the game that
we're playing.

there is not word for our kind of friendship.
two people who don't see each other a lot,
but can make each other effortlessly happy.

you say i'm too hard on myself.

but i have lived with myself for too many years.
i know exactly how hard i am.

If you're calling about my heart - it's still yours.
I should've listened to it a little more.
Then it wouldn't have taken me so long to find where I belong.
