Favorite saying

• ""Life is like an hour glass...eventually, everything hits the bottom.All you have to do is wait it out until someone comes along, and turns it around." "You can't start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading the last one." "Sometimes bad things happen, and there's nothing you can do about it, so why worry?" "You're just a daydream away." "I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we'll never know most of them. But even if we don't have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there." "Somedays you'll feel sad and not even know why. Like you lost something very precious but you forgot what it was, or like you miss someone you've never met." "Just because you can't understand something, it doesn't mean it's wrong." "Take a breath and let the rest come easy." "Live without pretending. Love without depending. Listen without defending. Speak without offending." "In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on." “Don’t attach yourself to anyone who shows you the least bit of attention because you’re lonely. Loneliness is the human condition. No one is ever going to fill that space. The best you can do is know yourself… know what you want.” "I have a bad habit of idealizing people. When I first meet someone I tend to find them perfect, faultless. I try to see the best in everyone, but there are so many people that will walk all over you. And with those expectations faced with that reality, I can't help but be disappointed." "Never ignore a person who loves and cares for you becasue one day you may realize you lost the moon while counting the stars." "But what's right? There are no 'right' decisons in life. There are just decisions. And people make them. Then they deal with the consequences." "The important people in our lives leave imprints. They may stay or go in the physical realm, but they are always there in your heart, because they helped form your heart. There's no getting over that." "What's done is done. All that really matters is where you go from there." "While I breathe, I hope." "I guess you have to forgive when you could, move on when you couldn't, and love your family and friends for who they were instead of punishing them for who they weren't." "I feel as though I have as many questions as there are stars." "Everything until now has been a test, and I have crashed and I have burned and I am weak, but I will come out stronger.""
