"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be?" (Marianne Williamson)0

"Not all pain is gain" - Which is why, at the gym, I start with something simple. Usually a cappuccino or maybe some French onion soup.
I actually said "not all pain is gain" for the first time after a guy at my gym got kicked full on in the whatsits. He said afterwards (in a strange high pitch voice) that he wasn't wearing a protective cup.
"Not all pain is gain". *sips cappuccino*0 -
This is still my favorite after all these years:
"Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly, because you tread on my dreams."
--William Butler Yeats0 -

A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous.
One day at a time - this is enough. Do not look back and grieve over the past for it is gone; and do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet come, live in the present and make it so beautiful it will be worth remembering.
She seems so invincible but just touch her and she'll wince. She has secrets and trusts no one. She's the perfect example of betrayal because anyone she's ever trusted broke her.
Stop beating yourself up. You are a work in progress; which means you get there a little at a time, not all at once.
No matter how many mistakes you make, or how slow you progress, you are still way ahead of everyone who isn’t trying.
Don’t worry about others doing better than you. Concentrate on beating your own records every day. Success is a battle between YOU and YOURSELF only.
A sobering thought: what if, at this very moment, I am living up to my full potential?
You can't have the rainbow without a little rain.
I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.
No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.
Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.
Fall in love or fall in hate. Get inspired or be depressed. Ace a test or flunk a class. Make babies or make art. Speak the truth or lie and cheat. Dance on tables or sit in the corner. Life is divine chaos. Embrace it. Forgive yourself, breathe & enjoy the ride.
I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.
Sanity may be madness but the maddest of all is to see life as it is and not as it should be.
When it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm already better than them.
I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did but people will never forget how you made them feel.

"We should all start to live before we get too old. Fear is stupid, so are regrets."

Don't stumble over something behind you. You're not going that way.
Success if failing nine times and getting up ten.
If you change nothing, nothing will change.0
