For my best girl.

I love you, now read these quotes (Bc I know youre the only one that reads my blog).

"Enjoy life, there's plenty of time to enjoy being dead."

"Every time you wake up and ask yourself, "What good things am I going to do today?", remember that when the sun goes down at sunset, it will take a part of your life with it."
^WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO FOR YOU TODAY?

To live with the conscious knowledge of the shadow of uncertainty, with the knowledge that disaster or tragedy could strike at any time; to be afraid and to know and acknowledge your fear, and still to live creatively and with unstinting love: that is to live with grace.
^MAYBE YOURE GOING THROUGH ALL OF THIS TO TEACH YOU HOW TO BE THE KIND OF WOMAN PEOPLE WILL WRITE ABOUT IN 100 YEARS.

"Life consists not in holding good cards but in playing those you hold well."
^YOU'VE GOT A LOT GOING FOR YOU, SO JUST EMBRACE IT!

It is by going down into the abyss that we recover the treasures of life. Where you stumble, there lies your treasure.
^I REALLY HAVE NO PHILOSOPHICAL COMMENT FOR THIS, BUT HEY, TREASURE CAN NEVER BE A BAD THING. UNLESS I SUPPOSE YOU'RE LIKE A DEAD BODY HUNTER OR SOMETHING AND ROTTING CORPSES ARE YOUR TREASURE, ANYWAYS...

About all you can do in life is be who you are. Some people will love you for you. Most will love you for what you can do for them, and some won't like you at all.
^^THIS ONE IS THE STORY OF OUR LIVES^^

In the final analysis, the questions of why bad things happen to good people transmutes itself into some very different questions, no longer asking why something happened, but asking how we will respond, what we intend to do now that it happened.
^I THINK YOU CAN FIGURE THAT ONE OUT OF YOUR OWN HA!

Everything starts with yourself -- with you making up your mind about what you're going to do with your life. I tell kids that it's a cruel world, and that the world will bend them either left or right, and it's up to them to decide which way to bend.
^I KNOW YOU GOT KICKED IN THE ASS, BUT ARE YOU GOING TO KICK BACK OR JUST TAKE LIKE A LITTLE BITCH BENT OVER THE COUCH? (FOR SOME REASON I PICTURED STEVE SIMS WHEN I TYPED THAT.... MUST HAVE BEEN A DRUNKEN STORY TELL TIME)







And if none of these tickle your fancy, well then here you go...

“Life goes on even when we're ready to quit. There is only one person I am living for, and if I can't have him, I want to be a Nun, and I am not even Catholic.”

Continually fighting...

As we all walk through life, we're consistently fighting. It may not always seems hard, which is what people usually classify as the main characteristic of fighting, but really we are. If we're not fighting each other, were fighting to learn and grow and become wealthier (aahh that right there is something beautiful to be fighting for... anyways). The reality of it all is that we need to know ourselves well enough to decide when something is worth fighting for. I get extremely disappointed when I hear someone say "I know you, and this is what you want/need/would do". That's total bullshit. No one else is in my brain (thank goodness!) and no one else can really, thoroughly and completely understand me. The hard part is getting to know yourself. Sometimes the best remedy is spending time alone (a good bubble bath is always a plus), but you can't learn everything about yourself until you look at how other people make you feel, how you act around other people and essentially how others make you react. I truly suggest finding one (more, if you can) person that is constantly challenging your mind and your personality. Someone that always makes you think outside of the normal realm thought. Someone that helps you learn more about yourself. Because once you've delved deep enough into yourself, you can decide if what you're fighting for is worth it. It's doesn't always have to be something you want, either. Fighting for things can be absolutely worth it if it's what's right, or what's meant to be. If you love someone so much you want whatever is best for them and what's best for them isn't necessarily what is best for you, then fight for it. Do it because it's the right thing to do. Do it because eventually someone is going to love you that much, and if you have the right frame of mind, you can let them help you get whatever you want. It is human nature to be kind. And if being kind hurts you, then so be it, because if doing something nice for someone else is what's right, just fucking suck it up and fight for it. I am a true believer that we are all products of our environments. We do as we know. But if you challenge what you know, then you're more likely to fight what situation your environment has put you in. Don't get me wrong, if your situation is making you happy and you feel that your life is worth living, then just fight to keep it that way. You don't always have to be changing to be learning. But for God's sake, always try to be learning. Not just from books or learning what people tell you to learn, but try to learn to better yourself. You can always make yourself better, always. And if you fight for the right things, then you're probably going to benefit from it in the end.

And someday, when you have learned exactly what it is that you want to fight for, I hope that you find someone that wants to be there right by your side while you're dong it, because that is exactly what love is.
