~Love Again~

                                            When you're capable

                                                  of loving until it hurts,

                                                          You're doing it right.

The Notebook

“You are the answer to 

every prayer I've offered. 

You are a song, 

a dream, 

a whisper,

and I don't know 

how I could have lived without you 

for as long as I have.” 

-Nicholas Sparks

Life, the Truth

“At the end of the day,

let there be no excuses, 

no explanations, 

no regrets.” 

Steve Maraboli

Socrates

“Wealth does not bring goodness, 

but goodness brings wealth and every other blessing"

The Phantom Tollbooth

“So many things are possible just as long as you don't know they're impossible.” 

― Norton Juster

Hope

"Hope" is the thing with feathers—

That perches in the soul—

And sings the tune without the words—

And never stops—at all—

And sweetest—in the Gale—is heard—

And sore must be the storm—

That could abash the little Bird

That kept so many warm—

I've heard it in the chillest land—

And on the strangest Sea—

Yet, never, in Extremity,

It asked a crumb—of Me. 

Emily Dickinson

Happy Lady

"Lady, lady, never start
Conversation toward your heart;
Keep your pretty words serene;
Never murmur what you mean.
Show yourself, by word and look,
Swift and shallow as a brook.
Be as cool and quick to go
As a drop of April snow;
Be as delicate and gay
As a cherry flower in May.
Lady, lady, never speak
Of the tears that burn your cheek-
She will never win him, whose
Words had shown she feared to lose.
Be you wise and never sad,
You will get your lovely lad.
Never serious be, nor true,
And your wish will come to you-
And if that makes you happy, kid,
You'll be the first it ever did." 

— Dorothy Parker
