Inhale happiness.
Exhale the madness.
Bend like a cow on the farm.
Stretch like blue stretching around the earth.
Move like a horse running in the warm wind.

"A woman is like a tea bag. You never know how strong she is until she gets into hot water."
-- Eleanor Roosevelt
Love is blind, but friendship is clairvoyant.
Really cool liberal minded people! Artists! Nice happy smiley people! Cat lovers! People who'll share their cookies. Someone who gets my dry sense of humor and thinks I have the coolest sneeze ever. Sticker collectors. Fireworks watchers. Wishers, dreamers and hopers. If you happen to be a single male who likes to hold hands and is willing to go antiquing with me, then that's just an added bonus.
I have a few MySpace pet peeves. Hard to believe, I know. First one is people who can't take the time to write with proper grammar. It really gets on my nerves. Second one is about men who want to be my friend, men who only have scantily clad women as their friends. I am not an object to be added to your collection, take the time to write me and get to know me. Mind-fuckery is strictly prohibited. Think on these things before you ask to be my friend.

“Love is tricky. It is never mundane or daily. You can never get used to it. You have to walk with it, then let it walk with you. You can never balk. It moves you like the tide. It takes you out to sea, then lays you on the beach again. Today’s struggling pain is the foundation for a certain stride through the heavens. You can run from it but you can never say no. It includes everyone.â€

All the strong women out there who don't conform to society and live their lives proudly.
Your friends are the family that you create.
"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
And above all, watch with glittering eyes the world around you. Because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who do not believe in magic will never find it.
-Roald Dahl
