Mark Twain:

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Oliver Wendell Holmes:

Many people die with their music still in them. Why is this so? Too often it is because they are always getting ready to live. Before they know it, time runs out.

Oscar Wilde:

To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.

Roy H. Williams:

Lives, like money, are spent. What are you buying with yours?

Marie Curie:

Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.

Albert Einstein:

Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile.

Helen Keller:

Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.

i had a special request from a special girl to write in my livejournal more often so im going to try... this is for you lovely!

And all of these moments
just might find their way into my dreams tonight,
But I know that they’ll be gone
when the morning light sings
and brings new things
for tomorrow night you see
that they’ll be gone too,
too many things I have to do
But if all of these dreams might find their way
into my day to day scene
I'd be under the impression
i was somewhere in between
With only two,
Just me and you,
Not so many things we got to do
or places we got to be
We'll sit beneath the mango tree now,

Yeah It's always better when we're together
Mmmm, we're somewhere in between together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together

ok to those of you who have been trying to tell me what to do with my life like in my relationships and other areas. please stop i really hate when you do this, i could care less what you think cause you really arent trying to help, and when you tell me whom i should like and not like it makes me even more angry, i could care less about your opinion so just shut up and worry about your screwed up life, im not assuming, i know youve got your own problems, you are just looking at mine to get away from yours. so unless ive asked for your help, (thank you guys for helping me!!!!!) shut it thank you

You're the echoes of my everything,
You're the emptiness the whole world sings at night.
You're the laziness of afternoon,
You're the reason why I burst and why I bloom
How will I break the news to you?
How will I break the news to you?

so yea today was a freaking blast, rachel, anna, liz, and i punked chad at albion, i called and lied to him and said my friend wanted to know what dorm he was in to meet him and we ended up showing up at his door and playing with his mind... we also hada blast walking around being dumb and just being dumb here are some pics...

yes that was awesome!

call me crazy cause i am but i dont think im being crazy i think that i might really have a point here, but i know up till now i use to wonder why i came but now im sure of what is to come of me. that is what God has planned. and who knows what will happen next? do you? i dont, am i making any sense to you? i use to ask myself where did i go wrong but now i see i didnt its all part of life... everything is for a reason regardless what it is... many times i hear people say im not strong enough to make a diffrence in this world or brave enough to... but its not your ability to make a diffrence, its your avalability, if you make yourself avaliable, you will do great things... just think to yourself how can i make myself avalible to God... i know im thinking that

hmm so ive been thinking this wed. night service was one of the most joyous times i have ever had in a church period i loved seeing all the missionaries there it was tight! than a fire at chelsca and clay's topped it off... this has been a very queer week for me indeed lots of mixed emotions, happy, sad, its been crazy... ive been thrown so many curve balls this past week and past year, its been tough at times, i wish i could just have all the answers, but than i guess we will learn some of them in due time. i just pray that i am doing what is right and not what i think i should be doing. that has hurt me before.... i just wonder........... the current quote that sums up what most people think of me is by the fray, "And everyone knows I'm in Over my head Over my head," i have never been told by so many people that i am crazy for doing what i feel is what God wants... haha but whatever... im crazy and i wouldnt do it any other way... do people who sit at home and neve make contact with others have good life stories? i dont believe so....
