Mom <3 Everyone needs to be valued. Everyone has the potential to give something back. - Princess Diana--- Intense love does not measure, it just gives. Mother Teresa --- I don't want expensive gifts; I don't want to be bought. I have everything I want. I just want someone to be there for me, to make me feel safe and secure. - Princess Diana - Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier. - Mother Teresa-I believe in a long, prolonged, derangement of the senses in order to obtain the unknown. Jim Morrison-Pay no mind to those who talk behind your back, it simply means that you are two steps ahead. Saying the things you are thankful for out loud can change your life. "-Lisa-Develop an interest in life as you see it; the people, things, literature, music-the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. -The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask. Jim Morrison-"we will not find peace in forcing others to submit to our plans for them or to allow ourselves to be enslaved by anyone else's desires for us in the name of avoiding confrontation. sometimes the best thing you can do for someone is part ways or simply to say no when it is in our hearts to say no."-Dan Thomas -Try not to become a man of success, but rather become a man of value.- Albert Einstein -If you are out to describe the truth, leave elegance to the tailor- Albert Einstein-“The best we can do is size up the chances, calculate the risks involved, estimate our ability to deal with them, and then make our plans with confidence.†-“Men and women are limited not by the place of their birth, not by the color of their skin, but by the size of their hope.†-What I like about cities is that everything is king size, the beauty and the ugliness.†-“Life is like music; it must be composed by ear, feeling, and instinct, not by rule.†- “Music exists for the purpose of growing an admirable heart.â€----------
...the older I get, the pickier I get with who I picture myself with, who I surround myself with and who I want nothing to do with...-MY TRUE THOUGHTS-It doesn't interest me what you do for a living, I want to know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing. It doesn't interest me how old you are, I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dreams, for the adventure of being alive. It doesn't interest me what planets are squaring your moon. I want to know if you have touched the center of your sorrow, if you have been open by life’s betrayals or have become shriveled and closed from fear of further pain. I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own, without moving to hide it or fade it or fix it. I want to know if you can be with joy, mine or your own; if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without causing us to be careful, be realistic, or to remember the limitations of being human. It doesn't interest me if the story you are telling me is true, I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself, if you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul. I want to know if you can be faithful and therefore trustworthy. I want to know if you can see beauty, even when it’s not pretty everyday, and if you can source your life from God's presence. I want to know if you can live with failure, mine or your own, and still stand on the edge of a lake and shout to the silver of the full moon, "yes!" It doesn't interest me to know where you live or how much money you have. I want to know if you can get up after the night of despair and grief, weary and bruised to the bone, and do what needs to be done. It doesn't interest me who you are, how you came to be here. I want to know if you will stand in the center of fire with me and not shrink back. It doesn't interest me when or what or with whom you have studied. I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else fails away. I want to know if you can be alone with yourself, and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments.
"And even when you've paid enough, been pulled apart or been held up With every single memory of the good or bad faces of luck don't lose any sleep tonight I'm sure everything will end up alrightYou may win or loseBut to be yourself is all that you can do"-AudioSlave -“I’ll never forget the feelings of excitement, enthusiasm, fear, thrill and exhilaration before the show. It was something that won’t ever be replaceable. The fact that my band members left everything for the sake of music was really admirable, I mean there was time that we even forgot to eat because music was the corner stone of our purpose in life.†- David Michaeli

Everybody prays whether [you think] of it as praying or not. The odd silence you fall into when something very beautiful is happening or something very good or very bad. The ah-h-h-h! that sometimes floats up out of you as out of a Fourth of July crowd when the sky-rocket bursts over the water. The stammer of pain at somebody elses pain. The stammer of joy at somebody else's joy. Whatever words or sounds you use for sighing with over your own life. These are all prayers in their way. These are all spoken not just to yourself but to something even more familiar than yourself and even more strange than the world. -Frederick Buechner
to be honest, don't even have a television in my apartment, I think that it sucks me in, and prevents me from getting stuff done. I prob would say... over the course of a week I watch about 4 hours of television.I read more hours than I watch TV.- I think that's respectable- I'm not under a rock hahah I still know what's going on out there.

"I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be." -Douglas Adams I'd like to say that I'm my own hero because at the end of the day I choose what to make of myself and how to look at my life, and I take the steps indicative to be where I am. But to keep this as the answer to who my hero is or are I would be surely mistaken. We are always contributing our time and love and caring to make eachothers lives a little better, we care enough to call, or write. We do wonderful things that make us heros out of the kindness of our hearts unconsiously. There are things about life that play heroic parts as well-Solely to name one thing about heroic actions based on people or instances would be unjust to all those that make a difference in our lives. Just be sure to know that no good deed goes unre
