One of Jessica's favorite quotes is:""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."
“Minds are like parachutes - they only function when open.”
“God allows us to experience the low points of life in order to teach us lessons we could not learn in any other way. The way we learn those lessons is not to deny the feelings but to find the meanings underlying them.”
“The difference between school and life? In school, you're taught a lesson and then given a test. In life, you're given a test that teaches you a lesson.”
“A woman has got to love a bad man once or twice in her life, to be thankful for a good one”
“If life keeps asking you the same questions....You are NOT learning the lessons...”
“Fear freezes ones will to grow, the flame of truth is the only thing that will revive this frozen state of being.”
Leif Ericsson Leo Veness
“I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.”
Marilyn Monroe
“To be happy with a man you must understand him a lot and love him a little. To be happy with a woman you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.”
Helen Rowland
“You never lose by loving. You always lose by holding back.”
“Remember that everyone you meet is afraid of something, loves something, and has lost something”
"Feeling healthy and feeling good about yourself is not a luxury - it's an absolute necessity."
"Have the courage to act on your dreams - leave behind you the internal forces that hold you back."
"When the sun comes up each day, be up and out with it."
If you really love something set it free. If it comes back it’s yours, if not it wasn’t meant to be.”

Any way you look at it, they are all OK, just choose consciously to follow your path and you will always end up where you need to be.
When you SCREAM at her, there's a man wishing he could whisper softly to her. When you HUMILIATE, OFFEND and INSULT her, there's a man flirting with her and reminding her how beautiful she...Expand for more
is. When you HURT her, there's a man wishing he could take her pain away...When you make her CRY, there's a man stealing her smiles. Post this on your wall to remind of Domestic Violence
--Wait for the guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will lie under the stars listening to your heart beat or will stay awake just to watch you sleep...wait for the boy who kisses you on the forehead, who wants to show you off to the world in your sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends, who thinks you're just as pretty with no make-up on, the boy who is constantly reminding you how much he cares and how lucky he is to be with YOU...the one who turns to his friends and says, "that's the girl."
Dare to dream big, because you have a big God!!
No one is in charge of your happiness except you."

-Eleanor Roosevelt
“Why do people persist in a dissatisfying relationship, unwilling either to work toward solutions or end it and move on? It's because they know changing will lead to the unknown, and most people believe that the unknown will be much more painful than what they're already experiencing.”
“Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections.”
Obstacles are things a person sees when he takes his eyes off his goal.”
Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
- Albert Einstein
“Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength.”
"You can never cross the ocean unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore"

"Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about."
"When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer."
"Make peace with your past so it want screw up your present."
