WE ALL HAVE STORIES TO TELL

April 7, 2011

I collected some quotes and pictures off the internet- that resonated me… to better understand life and things *that keeps me sane for an hour:

 

 

 

I think that’s what I find most strange about this world-

 

nobody ever says how they feel.

 

They hurt, but they don’t cry out.

They’re happy, but they don’t dance or jump around.

 And they’re angry but they hardly ever scream.

 

Because they feel ashamed.

Nothing’s worse than that.

 

So we all walk around with our heads looking down and never look up

to see how beautiful the sky is.

~ Uptown Girls

Everybody hurts, everybody bleeds.

Everyone laughs and smiles and loves.

And that’s all that it is.

There is no meaning of life, it’s nothing that can be defined.

It’s a matter of writing your own definition.

 

Today isn’t about missing yesterday or dreaming about tomorrow. It’s  about living in the moment, enjoying the minutes. It’s about spending  time with those who make you laugh. The ones that cause you to laugh  to hard and smile to wide. 

Don’t worry about what others think. All  that matters is today and this moment right now, right here. Enhance  
this moment and let it sink in, for it will never exsist again. And  now it’s gone, it’s over with, just like that.

 

 

Life will pass you by  in a heartbeat and so will the people around you, so hold on.

 

 

Hold  onto those precious souls who treat you like you deserve to be treated  and let go of those who don’t.

 

Don’t dwell on the past, for it will  never return.

 

Miss those who have passed to a much better world than  that of here on earth. Those who have gone to heaven and danced with angels.

Miss them but don’t forget them. Don’t forget them for they  are not gone, not gone forever. Their spirit dances around you and  brings hope and strength to the moments of weakness;

 

Moments in which  you do miss the yesterdays but dread the tomorrows. Because along with  the tomorrows comes a day further from their exsistence on earth. So  what is today? It’s it. It’s everything.

 

 

EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON *at least - i like to think things that way.

 

The greatest misktakes we make are the risks we don’t take if you  
think something will make you happy go for it so you won’t live your  
life asking “what if?” & telling yourself “if only.”

 

 

Sometimes when you’re young, you think nothing can hurt you. It’s like being invincible. Your whole life is ahead of you & you have big plans. Big plans. To find your perfect match. The one that completes you.

 

But as you get older, you realize it’s not always that easy. It’s not until the end of your life that you realize how the plans you made were simply plans.

 

At the end, when you’re looking back instead of forward, you want to believe that you made the most of what life gave you. You want to believe that you’re leaving something good behind. You want it all to have mattered.

 

 

Time. Time changes everything.

That’s what people say, it’s not true.

Doing things changes things.

Not doing things leave things exactly as they were. ~ House

 

 

Impatience makes one lose sight of his surroundings and invites failure.

 

Three passions, simple but overwhelming,

have governed my life: the longing for love,

the search for knowledge,

and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind.

~Bertrand Russell, Autobiography, 1967

 

 

I don’t ordinarily do regrets.

 

 

 

 Truth is, everybody is going to hurt you, you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for.
- Bob Marley

 

Shit doesn’t happen - life happens. Things go wrong, people change,

& sometimes it feels like you can’t go on.

But, in the end, you have to stop blaming everyone else

& put it on yourself to be happy,

because it’s your life & you have to make it through the hard times to get stronger.

 

 

 

 

I love Google, it’s the brain I never had

 

 

 

Once upon a time I wanted to know what love was. Love is there when you want it to be, you just have to see that it’s wrapped in beauty & hidden away between the seconds of your life. If you don’t stop for a minute, you might miss it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

No matter how many times i get hurt because of you, i won’t leave you. because 
even if i have a hundred reasons to leave you, i’ll look for that one reason to 
fight for you.

 Stop talking about love. Every asshole in the world says he loves somebody. It means nothing. It still doesn’t mean anything. What you feel only matters to you. It’s what you do to the people you say you love, that’s what matters. It’s the only thing that counts.
- The Last Kiss

 

 

the things you do… the things you did… for affection. HAH!

 

 

 

we trace the sun across the sky
and we laugh till we cry
always so hard to say goodbye..

and we all sit round here in our home town
it’s so good like this, these are times we’ll miss
the memories, i hope will never fade
glowing embers fly across the sky

 

 

 

 

At this moment there are 6,470,818,671 people in the world.

Some are running scared.

Some are coming home.

Some tell lies to make it through the day.

Others are just now facing the truth.

Some are evil men, at war with good.

And some are good, struggling with evil.

 

Six billion people in the world. Six billion souls.

And sometimes — all you need is one.

 

 Childhood: the period of human life intermediate between the idiocy of infancy and the folly of youth - two removes from the sin of manhood and three from the remorse of age. ~Ambrose Bierce, The Devil’s Dictionary, 1911

 

 

 

THE BEST THING ABOUT MEMORIES IS THAT YOU CAN CREATE THEM

 

 

 

 

i like running around taking pictures. people would brand me as the ‘crazy-bitch-who-takes-pictures’.  but i dont kerr…

 

 

 

 

 Did you ever notice that there is always that particular line in that certain song that always stands out in a certain way and reminds you of that one person you can’t forget?

 

You know what music is?
God’s little reminder that there’s something else
besides us in this universe; harmonic connection
between all living beings, everywhere, even the stars.
- August Rush

 

“Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.”
    -Dr Seuss

Some people are so afraid to die that they never begin to live.

 

 

There’s no fear when you’re having fun.

 

 

 

 

 

 

You may be the only one who understands YOU. Don’t make it a deal. You MAY be wrong.

 

 

Carry laughter with you wherever you go.

 

 

You know what? Tragedies happen. What are
you going to do? Give up? Quit? No, I realize
now that when your heart breaks you got to fight like
hell to make sure you’re still alive. Cause you are
and that pain you feel, it’s life. The confusion and
fear, that’s there to remind you that somewhere
out there is something better, and that
something is worth fighting for.

 

 

If I could go back I’m my life, I wouldn’t change anything. Why?

Because I wouldn’t be as strong as I am today.

 There comes a point when you have got to stop relying on other people to make you feel okay. You’ve got to stop saying, “I need you.” You’ve got to stop feeling like you can’t live without someone, because guess what? You can. There is no one in this world that knows how to pick you up better then yourself. Sometimes there won’t be someone who can fix you when you’re breaking. Sometimes you’re just alone, and you know what? That’s good. Because if you don’t know how to fix yourself when you’re broken, you won’t get anywhere. It’ll seem like the worst thing in the world at first, but I promise you if you don’t run to anybody, if you just give yourself a chance, you’d be surprised what you can accomplish. 

 

 

Depression is like a heavy dark rain cloud that follows you no matter where you go.

Sometimes you just let it… cause you may love the feeling.but what the hell girl?!

who loves to sulk all the time? its tiring!

 

There is always gonna be that one person, the one who fucked you up, the one who RUINED your life, the one you swore you would never forgive. That person, who becomes not even a person at some point, but becomes this overwhelming being, this sense of loss that you carry with you. They are not worth it. Seriously, stop crying right now. Maybe you cannot see it right now, maybe all the other stuff that gets tossed in the pile of human relationships make it very hard to see, but people who treat you badly, are bad.

 

 

The Great Depression

I would say that we are on the age of The Great Depression: with all the infinite

lists of things that we NEEDED and WANTED to have, or wanted to experience

(thanks to shoptv and the rich neighbors) we got frustrated,

depressed, and insecure -day-by-day… just dreaming about- such and such… and just to realize–

nah-ah! its not gonna happen.

*with fist in the air: HOW UNFAIRR!

I say this is the real Age of Depression. With new things invented

everyday, You can just imagine how depressed you beocme

things you miss on the list of your wants and needs…

the neighbors upgraded their tv to LED flat screens.

everybodys travelling somwhere.

or she always have the right dress. damn!

it feels like youre fading on the face of this earth. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For all you people out there who think no one cares, someone does. For all you people out there who think you aren’t beautiful, you are, believe me.

For all you people out there who cry yourself to sleep, get up outta bed & do something that makes you happy; no one deserves to go to sleep upset.

For all you people out there who harm yourself in any way, someone would be devastated if they knew you did; no one deserves to hurt inside and out, no matter what.

For all you people out there who starve and purge, you don’t need to live up to anyone else’s expectations of perfect; you’re beautiful and amazing the way you are.

For all you people out there who are judged and bullied, don’t listen to what others say; they don’t know your story, and odds are, they’re looking for a pathetic way to feel better about themselves.

For all you people out there drink or do drugs, I know times are hard and it’s an easy escape, but you don’t know how much your actions affect other people until it’s too late.

For all you people out there who have had broken hearts, that one person may not love you, but there are others who would risk everything for you, you just have to find them.

For all of you out there who have been abused either emotionally or physically, don’t blame yourself for any of it, it’s not your fault; some people are just bad human beings who can’t get their life together and take their pain out on you.

For all you people out there who daydream about taking off and leaving everything, do whatever makes you happy; life’s too short to waste it unhappy.

For all you people out there who want to skip school or work, there’s someone who would go absolutely insane without you there.

For all you people who want to kill yourself, don’t; you could miss out on an amazing life later on, death is not the answer.

For all you people out there who don’t have real smiles or real friends or a real family, you’re strong, you’re beautiful, and you WILL survive because I know you can make it through this; don’t ever let life get you down.

For all you people facing any kind of struggle, you’re not alone in this battle; don’t ever forget that. Don’t ever forget that someone does care about you. Don’t ever let life’s hard times and uncertainties get you down. And for all you people out there reading this and thinking how true it is but thinking how it doesn’t apply to you and that you don’t deserve happiness, you do. You’re worth way more than you think, and honestly, you are beautiful. Every single one of you out there is one of a kind and irreplaceable.

just don’t give up, okay ? because someone out there feels the same exact way you do right now. because this is life. and it’s not supposed to be easy, or perfect. because even if it was, we’d all still have something to complain about. so just hang in there. whatever’s going wrong, will eventually go right. whether it’s friends, family, or boys. nothing will ever be damaged forever. like they say. in the end you’re happy. and if you’re not happy…well then it’s not the end now is it ?
