for you

independence? self actualization? what are we doing?
think you can survive this alone?
think again
no one can
seek
find someone
who reaches out to you, who touches your heart, whom you know you can depend on
if you fail
then
it means your search is not over
so
get up and start again
reach out
let them in
if you cant then
change, learn
let go
as long as you are still breathing, there is still hope. there is still life, life ahead of you. life to be lived, not wasted
dont wallow in the sorrows of your past
move on,
forget






How do I change? If I feel depressed I will sing. If I feel sad I will laugh. If I feel ill I will double my labour. If I feel fear I will plunge ahead. If I feel inferior I will wear new garments. If I feel uncertain I will raise my voice. If I feel poverty I will think of wealth to come. If I feel incompetent I will think of past success. If I feel insignificant I will remember my goals.
Today I will be the master of my emotions.
-Og Mandino, “The Greatest Salesman in the World”



When you come to the end of all the light you know, and it's time to step into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing that one of two things shall happen: Either you will be given something solid to stand on or you will be taught to fly.
-Edward Teller



"The real test of friendship is: can you literally do nothing with the other person? Can you enjoy those moments of life that are utterly simple?"
-Eugene Kennedy





When you make a mistake, don't look back at it long. Take the reason of the thing into your mind and then look forward. Mistakes are lessons of wisdom. The past cannot be changed. The future is yet in your power.
-Hugh White



You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, "I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along." . . . You must do the thing you think you cannot do.
-Eleanor Roosevelt



The world is not respectable; it is mortal, tormented, confused, deluded forever; but it is shot through with beauty, with love, with glints of courage and laughter; and in these, the spirit blooms timidly, and struggles to the light amid the thorns.
-George Santayana



"Ae fond kiss, and then we sever!


A farewell, and then forever!


Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee,


Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee.


Who shall say that Fortune grieves him,


While the star of hope she leaves him?


Me, nae cheerful twinkle lights me,


Dark despair around benights me."
-Robert Burns, Ae Fond Kiss


it feels good. when you've found people you can depend on and trust and love. it feels fuzzy and warm and comfortable =D you've got something to fall back onto
