trust in the timing

never doubt your instinct 

may your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. i hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you're wonderful. and don't forget to make some art. and i hope, somewhere in the next year, you surprise yourself. 

compassion is so often the solution 

my heart is at ease knowing that, what is meant for me will never miss me, and what what misses me was never meant for me

your mind is a powerful thing. when you fill it with positive thoughts, your life will start to change

and so the adventure begins

oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person; having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but to pour them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, knowing that a faithful hand will take and shift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then, with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away.

- George Eliot 

so, i close my eyes to old ends and open my heart to new beginnings 

- Nick Frederickson

what you allow is what will continue

remember, when you forgive, you heal. and when you let go, you grow

we must be willing to let go of the life we planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us

go live

you get in life what you have the courage to ask for 

 i opened my mouth, almost said something

almost 

the rest of my life might have turned out differently if i had, but i did't

i wear the universe backwards. i imagine putting stars in my coffee, and sugar in the sky. i imagine going fishing in clouds, and watching the sun hide behind lakes. i'm too busy dancing with my imagination to even tip toe with reality for a second.

they say i'm going mad

they're right 

do not compare yourself to others

sometimes you need to step outside, get some air, and remind yourself of who you are and who you want to be

do not feel lonely, the entire universe is inside of you

he loved her of course, but better than that, her chose her, day after day. choice: that was the thing

the most desired gift of love is not diamonds or roses or chocolate. it is focused attention

listen

you can't control someone else's loyalty. no matter how good you are to them, doesn't mean they'll treat you the same. no matter how much they mean to you, doesn't mean they'll value you the same. sometimes the people you love the most, turn out to be the people you can trust the least.

i am trying to remember you and let you go at the same time

a lot can happen in a year

always believe that something wonderful is about to happen 

choose being kind over being right and you'll be right every time 

you need a little bit of insanity to do great things

trust the timings of your life 

you are going to want to give up. don't

surround yourself with people that get it 

it's all in your mind: 

whatever you hold in your mind will tend to occur in your life. if you continue to believe as you have always believed, you will continue to act as you have always acted. if you continue to act as you have always acted, you will continue to get what you have always gotten. if you want different results in your life or your work, all you have to do is change your mind

believe in yourself

let them miss you. sometimes when you're always available, they take you for granted because they think you'll always stay 

i closed my eyes softly and fell in love with the way i remembered your body, soul and all 

decisions sometimes prove to be the hardest to make, especially when it's a choice between where you should be and where you really wanted to be 

why should a relationship mean settling down? wait for someone who won't let life escape you, who'll challenge you and drive you toward your dreams. someone spontaneous you can get lost in the world with. a relationship, with the right person, is a release, not a restriction 

when you least expect it, something great will come along, something better than you ever planned for. be patient, be smart, stay focused 

our anxiety does not come from thinking about the future, but from wanting to control it

have faith in yourself

reach as high as you can, and then reach a little higher. there you will find magic and possibility. and maybe even cookies

every positive change in your life begins with a clear, unequivocal decision that you are going to either do something or stop doing something

things change

incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over instead of craving control of what you don't 

 - Steve Maraboli

don't call it a dream, call it a plan

don't make it more complicated than it needs to be

find peace and everything will fall into place 

select your thoughts 

i've spend hours contemplating the words to say to you but no combination of twenty six different letters could every accurately capture even a sliver of what this feeling is

love early mornings, when it feels like the rest of the world is still asleep and everything feels like it isn't real and you cab forget about your problems because it's just you 

when you focus on your problems, you'll have more problems. when you focus on possibilities, you'll have more opportunities 

'no' might make them angry but it will make you free 

there is a difference between giving up and knowing when you have had enough

time decides who you meet in life, your heart decides who you want in your life, and your behaviour decides who stays in your life

eventually, everything connects

it all begins and ends in your mind. what you give power to, has power over you, if you allow it

those who don't jump will never fly

dare to begin

arrogance is used by the weak, while kindness is used by the strong

never get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life

everything carries me to you. as if everything that exists, aromas, lights, metals, were little boats that sail toward those isles of yours that wait for me

time doesn't stop when you close your eyes

'if you limit your choices only to what seems possible or reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want, and all that is left is compromise' - anais nin
