"I woke up this morning thinking of you
And i wondered if you were thinking of me to...
I sat up and thought about our last goodbye
and all i could do was sit there and cry
It's hard to let you go when i know what we could be
I just have to wait until the day that you will finally see
Maybe someday you'll realize how much i care for you
and maybe you'll realize that you care for me too
But until we meet what could be fate,
I'll just sit here thinking of you and wait."
"imperfection is beauty, madness is genius. but its better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring."
There are 5 things in life you cannot recover: A stoneâ¦after it's thrown. A wordâ¦after it is said. An occasionâ¦after it's missed. The timeâ¦after it's gone. A personâ¦after they die. Life is short. Break the rules. Forgive quickly. Kiss slowly. Love truly. Laugh uncontrollably. And never regret anything that made you happy inside!

I found myself lost in my own life.
I trusted few, feared most.
Moving offered escape and peace.
I didnt know if leaving would cure or kill this thing I created.
I didn't know if it was a act of strength or cowardness.
I didn't know, so I stayed.
I stayed because in the end, the only way I could hold this up, was to suffer under the weight of it.
"If we examine every stage of our lives, we find that from our first breath to our last we are under the constraint of circumstances. And yet we still possess the greatest of all freedoms, the power of developing our innermost selves in harmony with the moral order of the Universe, and so winning peace at heart with whatever obstacles we meet."
-Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
"Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow. It empties today of its strength."

When you find yourself regarding to your past relationships as nothing more than a ledger of ups and downs,
you start to realize the painfully obvious truth.
You are the unescapable result of your own actions.
And when all that is left is a long list of plus's and minus's,
you will realize that you are truely alone.
"The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man."
