To those who can dream there is no such place as faraway

To avoid criticism do nothing, say nothing, be nothing

A happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances, but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes.

You’ve changed so much. I guess that’s what happens. I wish you knew how much you changed me. I wonder if I changed you, if your life is different because of me. Because mine’s different. My God, you taught me so much, and now we don’t even talk to each other. I guess that’s what happens.

We can cure physical diseases with medicine, but the only cure for loneliness, despair, and hopelessness is love. There are many in the world who are dying for a piece of bread, but there are many more dying for a little love.

I am at home wherever I am

Better to be a free bird than a captive king.

People often say that 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder.'
The most liberating thing about beauty
is realizing that you are the beholder.
This empowers us to find beauty in places
where others have not dared to look,
including inside ourselves.

People are like stained-glass windows.
They sparkle and shine when the sun is out,
but when the darkness sets in
their true beauty is revealed
only if there is a light from within.

I think perfectionism is based on the obsessive belief
that if you run carefully enough, hitting each stepping-stone just right,
you won't have to die.
The truth is you will die anyway
and that a lot of people who aren't even looking at their feet
are going to do a whole lot better than you,
and have a lot more fun while they're doing it.

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams.
Live the life you have imagined.

Our truest life is when we are in our dreams awake.

Pain, you just have to ride it out,
hope it goes away on its own, hope the wound that caused it heals.
There are no solutions, no easy answers,
you just breathe deep and wait for it to subside.
Most of the time pain can be managed
but sometimes the pain gets you where you least expect it.
Hits way below the belt and doesn’t let up.
Pain, you just have to fight through,
because the truth is you can’t outrun it
and life always makes more.

Sometimes doing something is worse than doing nothing.
- Meredith Grey

Do you know when to walk away? Do you know when not to take less than you deserve?

For a kiss to be really good, you want it to mean something. You want it to be with someone you can’t get out of your head, so that when your lips finally touch you feel it everywhere. A kiss so hot and so deep you never want to come up for air. You can’t cheat your first kiss. Trust me, you don’t want to. Cause when you find that right person for a first kiss, it’s everything.

Better in Time // Leona Lewis

It’s been the longest winter without you,
I didn’t know where to turn to.
See, somehow I can’t forget you,
After all that we’ve been through.

Going, coming, thought I heard a knock
Who’s there? No one
Thinking that I deserve it
Now I realize that I really didn’t

Thought I couldn’t live without you
It’s gonna hurt when it heals too,
(It’ll all get better in time)
And even though I really love you,
I’m gonna smile cause I deserve to
It’ll all get better in time

Since there’s no more you and me
It’s time I let you go so I can be free
And live my life how it should be.
No matter how hard it is,
I’ll be fine without you
