Love Is What Happens During All The Moments You Blink
Someone holds you for the first time in a long time and you are bound to think it is true love.
The thing that it takes years to learn is that isn’t anything close to love.
Love happens when they aren’t holding you.
It happens when they are washing dishes while whistling pop songs, or chewing on the end of a pen doing the crossword, or falling asleep in a chair reading a book.
It is stories told in the dark, at 3 AM with your eyes closed.
It is hating the way they say your name when you are fighting, how they tell you everything can be fixed when you are convinced it can’t.
Love is what happens when you aren’t touching but your heart still swells for them like a wave in a storm.

Never Lower Your Standards
One of the biggest misunderstandings that people have when it comes reaching new levels in their lives is the feeling that they must wait for the people around them to raise the bar.
Never feel bad for saying no.
Not everyone will have your best interests in mind when they try to apply the pressure on you to do things that you know deep-down, are not you.
Refuse to lower your standards to accommodate those who refuse to raise theirs.
Give Thanks for Where You Are Going
They say at the end of our lifetime, we won't regret the mistakes we made, but rather things we didn't do when we had the chance to.
Your biggest fear in life shouldn't be fearing losing your life, but it should instead be fear that you didn't live all that you could while you could.
Are you taking advantage of all of the opportunities that you know in your heart you should be taking advantage of?
Are you looking through open doors, and trying your hardest to live as every moment passes.
Do you want to go to bed happy each night?
The only way is to do what is in your spirit.
Let God's wisdom be your guide, and your heart be your transportation, it is time for take off.
It is time to take your focus off of the things in life that you know aren't important.
Today: Instead of regretting where you've BEEN...give thanks for where you're GOING.
Let yourself live!

Change Choice Principles
There are three constants in life...change, choice and principles.

True Best Friends
This life is what you make it.
No matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth.
But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up.

But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up.
People will be your friends - they'll act like it anyway.
But just remember, some come, some go.
The ones that stay with you through everything –
they're your true best friends.
Don't let go of them....

Change Your Mind Change Your Life
Did you know that there are results that come from the decisions we make in our everyday lives?
Many of us realise this fact, but we still cant allow ourselves to not let our lives be determined by the circumstances around us.
The path that you took before does not limit you on the path to where you are going.
It only takes a minute for us to literally change our minds, but it may take us a while to even see the need for a change in our ideas or thought processes.
When we can't change the things that are going around us, many of us get so discouraged that we decide to stop functioning.
We have to constantly want to learn and drive, and seek solutions because even the worst of circumstances can change if we just look hard for the answers to make them.

Make a Decision to be Happy Despite it All
Being happy is a choice that you have to decide to make each day.
Every day is a day that we have to choose to rise with grace, and class, on a mission with focus, and a resolve that can't be broken or disturbed.
Make it a point to renew yourself everyday and to make each day different, but productive in the same sense.
Make you days stretch as much as possible, for they should be as full as you can possibly make them, whether it be full of rest every once in a while, full of hard work, full of networking, exploring the world, or exploring the depths of your deepest relationships.
Decide to take the initiative to be where you want to be.
Remember that no matter what, people will always talk and tell you not to continue to pursue your dreams.
Be happy anyway, and make your life yours.
