I had the sudden urge to revisit my blog and post up these quotes I've almost forgotten about. I miss writing. I don't even write on my moleskine anymore. I guess I've been busy, or been uninteresting, or just don't want to remember what's been going on. Anyways, I might write again, here or in my moleskine, we'll see.

Quotes to live by:

"In life, people tend to wait for good things to come to them. And by waiting, they miss out. Usually, what you wish for doesn't fall in your lap; it falls somewhere nearby, and you have to recognize it, stand up, and put in the time and work it takes to get to it. This isn't because the universe is cruel. It's because the universe is smart. It knows we don't appreciate things that fall into our laps. "

"After a while you learn a subtle difference between holding a hand and changing a soul;And you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning and company doesn’t mean security;And you begin to learn that kisses aren’t contracts and presents aren’t promises;And you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes open with the grace of an adult, not the grief of a child;And you learn to build your roads on today because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans.After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much;So plant your own garden and decorate your soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers;And learn that you really can endure, That you really are strong, and you really do have worth!"

"Sometimes, in our relentless efforts to find the person we love, we fail to recognize and appreciate the people who love us. We miss out on so many beautiful things and simply because we allow ourselves to be enslaved by our own selfish concerns. Go for the woman of deeds and not for the woman of words for you will find rewarding happiness not with the woman you love but the woman who loves you more. The best lovers are those capable of loving from a distance far enough to allow the person to grow, but never too far to feel the love deep within your being.You don't have to forget someone you love. What you need to learn is how to accept the verdict of reality without being bitter or sorry for yourself. Believe me, you would be better off giving that dedication and love to someone more deserving. Don't let your heart run your life, be sensible and let your mind speak for itself. Listen not only to your feelings but to reason as well. Always remember that if you lose someone today, it means that someone better is coming tomorrow. If you lose love, that doesn't mean that you failed in love. Cry if you have to, but make sure that the tears wash away the hurt and the bitterness that the past has left you. Let go of yesterday and love will find its way back to you. And when it does, pray that it may be the love that will stay and last a lifetime. There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is though everything is a miracle."

I most likely posted these before, but I don't care. It's my blog. Goodnight =]
