Life.
Life has the ability to throw anything at you, but it’s how you deal with the situation that determines the overall outcome. Taking a positive approach to everything makes life so much more worth it.
Don’t dwell on the negatives, soak in the joys and live for the moment. It doesn’t matter how your life is panning out, it’s more important how you decide to deal with it. Don’t spend your time feeling sorry for yourself, be thankful and appreciate what you have.
Because after all it’s not your condition, it’s your decision.
Happiness.
Don’t let your happiness be held hostage. It is always yours to choose, to live, to experience. You don’t need anyone else’s permission to be happy. Your life is magnificent not because someone says it is, but because you choose to see it as such. If you’re unhappy, that’s not someone else’s fault. Take full responsibility for your own unhappiness, and you instantly gain the ability to create your own happiness. Every day, you fulfill your most sincere expectations. Expect to be happy, and just like that, you are. Stop seeking in vain to arrange circumstances that will make you happy. Simply choose to be happy, and your circumstances start to line up around that happiness.
Your happiness is your choice. Choose it any time you wish.

Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They invent. They imagine. They heal. They explore. They create. They inspire. They push the human race forward.
Maybe they have to be crazy.
How else can you stare at an empty canvas and see a work of art? Or sit in silence and hear a song that’s never been written? Or gaze at a red planet and see a laboratory on wheels?
We make tools for these kinds of people.
While some see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

Amour
Love is a temporary madness, it erupts like volcanoes and then subsides. And when it subsides, you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion, it is not the desire to mate every second minute of the day, it is not lying awake at night imagining that he is kissing every cranny of your body. No, don’t blush, I am telling you some truths. That is just being “in love”, which any fool can do. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident.” - Louis de Bernières
The Beauty of a Woman
For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed; never throw out anyone. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you’ll find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others. The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives the passion that she shows. The beauty of a woman grows with the passing years.
Audrey Hepburn (May 4, 1929 – January 20, 1993)

“If the solar system was brought about by an accidental collision, then the appearance of organic life on this planet was also an accident, and the whole evolution of Man was an accident too. If so, then all our present thoughts are mere accidents—the accidental by-product of the movement of atoms. And this holds for the thoughts of the materialists and astronomers as well as for anyone else’s. But if their thoughts—i.e. of materialism and astronomy—are merely accidental by-products, why should we believe them to be true? I see no reason for believing that one accident should be able to give me a correct account of all the other accidents. It’s like expecting that the accidental shape taken by the splash when you upset a milk jug should give you a correct account of how the jug was made and why it was upset.”
— C.S. Lewis
To; you.
This is my wish for you:
Comfort on difficult days,
smiles when sadness intrudes,
rainbows to follow the clouds,
laughter to kiss your lips,
sunsets to warm your heart,
hugs when spirits fade,
beauty for your eyes to see,
friendships to brighten your being,
faith so that you can believe,
confidence for when you doubt,
courage to know yourself,
patience to accept the truth.
& love to complete your life.

Out there, Somewhere.
You know I believe somewhere, out there, there is someone who will change your life in a way you couldn’t believe.We don’t know who they are, or where they are,but that one person is going to make you see everything in a new light and you will feel like it is a new life for you, a better life.They might not even ever enter your life,but no matter what, there will always be a place for them in your heart.
You could be worlds apart, or so close you don’t even realise it.
You could have passed them time and time again in the street and not realise what an impact they would make on your life one day.
But just stay strong, just keep going,
Because one day,
That one day that will change your life forever,
You will find them.
