I like my eyes. I'm insecure about everything else. My hands, my voice, and, most importantly, my mind are my greatest tools. They do more good than anything else I own. I have an indescribable family and a handful of lifelong friends. I don't talk to them or see them as much as I would like but I feel their presence and I am whole. I have built walls around my soul that I wish I could permanently break down. What purpose do they serve? They don't hinder our ability to feel pain, they cage us in and keep others from seeing the damage at an unreachable distance. The damage, the flaws, the mistakes that lead us to a place of higher learning are beautiful. Welcome such an opportunity. I believe there is good in everyone. Watch for it. I am in love with music. I adore The Beatles. They are my soundtrack. I value loyalty and good conversation above all else. Try not to be careless with the people who hold YOU above all else. Once you stop caring about what others think and start to live for yourself you are free.
What you feel only matters to you.
It's what you do to the people you love.
That's what matters.
That's the only thing that counts.
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we're liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." - Marianne Williamson
"Later that day I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you can find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous." - Carrie, Sex and the City
All you need is... The Beatles
