Quotes About Life & Love

True love does not come by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.

You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.

We all die. The goal isn't to live forever. The goal is to create something that will.

To let go isn't to forget, not to think about, or ignore. It doesn't leave feelings of anger, jealousy, or regret. Letting go isn't about winning or losing. It's not about pride, it's not about how you appear, and it's not obsessing or dwelling on the past. Letting go isn't blocking memories or thinking sad thoughts, and doesn't leave emptiness, hurt, or sadness. It's not about giving in or giving up. Letting go isn't about loss and it's not about defeat. To let go is to cherish the memories, to overcome and move on. It is having an open mind in confidence for the future. Letting go is learning, experiencing and growing. To let go is to be thankful for the experiences that made you laugh, made you cry, and made you grow. It's about all that you have, all that you had, and all that you will soon gain. Letting go is having the courage to accept change, and the strength to keep moving. Letting go is growing up. It is realizing that the heart can sometimes be the most potent remedy. To let go is to open a door, to clear a path and set yourself free.

Never regret the past, because at one point in your life, it was exactly what you wanted.

When you love someone, it's something. When someone loves you, it's another thing. When you love the person who loves you back, it's absolutely everything.

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.

Time stays long enough for anyone who will use it.

Never make anyone your everything, because when they're gone, you'll have nothing.

People will forget what you did and what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel.

Don't cry because it's over, be happy that it happened.

We do things afraid they won't come out right. We doubt whether we can fulfill our desires. We have anxiety in the moment because we are disconnected from the final result. But the second we create certainty, we are already there. What does certainty mean? It means tomorrow is already here and what I want to happen has already happened. I found my soulmate, I published my book, I wrote my song, my wounds have healed. It means knowing that as long as I am doing what I need to do, whether it happens tomorrow or in ten years, I know it will happen. The space between now and then is illusionary. Remove the space. Be certain in everything you do.

"Wasted time" is all the moments we spend in our minds thinking about the "what ifs." It's a waste because wallowing in shoulda, coulda, woulda mode takes us out of the here and now. When you find yourself obsessing about something done or to be done, practice bringing your awareness back to the people and situations in front of you. This is where you can make a difference. Right now.

Never leave the one you love for the one you like, because the one you like will leave you for the one they love.

No boy is worth your tears, and the one who is won't make you cry.

Dance in the rain just to get soaked, call a friend just because you care, smile just because you can, and laugh just to make people stare.

Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don't, and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, then let it. Nobody said it'd be easy, they just promised that it'd be worth it.

To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.

Distance is not for the fearful. It is for the bold. It is for those who are willing to spend a lot of time alone in exchange for a little time with the one they love. It is for those who know a good thing when they see it, even if they don't see it nearly enough.

Obstacles are put in your way to see if what you want is really worth fighting for.

You can't change the past. You can't predict the future. All you can do is live for today.
