IT'S ALWAYS WORTH
IT IN THE END.

you can't control when you lose your heart.
the only thing you can do is trust; trust that the
person who has your heart realizes its value.

don't say we aren't right for each other,
the way i see it is...we aren't right for anyone else.

i hate the way you can push me to the limits with the
things you do and then you know just the right time
to say something sweet to make me fall for you all
over again.

i just want to stare at your beautiful eyes and fall asleep
in your arms, because i know that i'm always going to be
happy with you(:

sometimes the most real things in life
are the things that can't be seen.

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.

and after a while you learn that you don't need anyone else in order
to survuve. no one is ever going to always be there, no matter what
they say or what they promise you. you just gotta suck it up, accept
it and keep on keepin' on.

corey: but why didn't you call her?
shawn: because i don't know what to say to her.
cory: how about hello?
shawn: but it would come out: hey, i want to have your babies.

the sad thing is, i knew he wasn't gonna call last night,
but i still woke up with my phone in my hand this morning.

it was odd - his brown eyes met my green and we didn't
look away. for a moment canught in this awkward staring
glance like thing and then he did the most amazing thing
when he looked away, he smiled.

jamie: you don't know the first thing about being someone's friend.
landon: i don't want to just be your friend.
jamie: you don't know what you want.
landon: neither do you. maybe you're just too scared that someone
might actually want to be with you.
jamie: and why would that scare me?
landon: because then you wouldn't be able to hide behind your books,
or your frickin telescope, or your faith. no, no, no, you know the real
reason why you're scared? it's cause you wanna be with me too.

i still miss you sometimes,
and that's okay.

of course she's going to say she's happy for you, and flash that smile you
love. but look into those eyes; and baby, you broke her.

no one means as much as you do.
no one ever will.

she's getting to you. you're slowly realizing
that you don't like being without her. you're
feeling exactly how she did.

the truth is:
i wish you were still here.

and as you look back on all the memories,
it makes you start to cry. you realize you
may never see these people again.

IT BREAKS MY HEART TO SEE
HOW MUCH YOU'VE CHANGED.

underneath that confidence,
fear is eating her inside out.

the smile on her face
explained how he made her feel.

no one said that this would be easy,
they just promised it would be worth it.

"but it's no use going back to yesterday,
because i was a different person then."

you don't realize how strong a person really is
until you see them at their weakest point.

it's life, and as much as it completely sucks sometimes,
you have to know that in the end, it will be worth it.

passion is knowing what you want
and never stopping until you have it.

no girl should ever forget that she doesn't
need anyone who doesn't need her.

"so now, alone or not, you've gotta walk ahead.
the thing to remember is if we're all alone, then
we're all in that together, too."

"dear gerry, you said you wanted me to fall in love again, and maybe one day i will. but there
are all kinds of love out there. this is my one and only life, and it's a great and terrible and
short and endless thing, and none of us come out of it alive. i don't have a plan except,
it's time my mom laughed again. she has never seen the world, she has never seen
ireland. so, i'm taking her back where we started. maybe now she'll understand. i
don't know how you did it, but you brought me back from the dead. i'll write to
you again soon. P.S. guess what?"

"they give their hearts to each other, unconditionally. and that's what true love really is.
it's not this fairy-tale life that never knows pain. but it's two souls facing it together, and
diminsihing it, with unconditional love."

YOU'RE CONTAGIOUS.

therefore do not worry about tomorrow,
for tomorrow will worry about itself.
each day has enough trouble of it's own.
matthew 6:34

of course i don't like you. in fact, i hate you.
that's why i stare at you all day.

after the funeral, my grandfather hugged me. and i'll never forget what he said. he told me
that he just lost the love of his life, the most important thing in the world to him, and that it
hurt like hell. he said he probably wouldn't ever be the same. but then he looked me straight
in the eyes; he said the this time with her was something he would NEVER trade, that it was
the only thing worth living for. he told me to find that. he told me that once i had that,
nothing else would be as important. and he said once i found it, to cherish it and
never let go.

oh when he smile, my heart melts;
and when he laughs, i can't stop.

WE CAN'T GIVE UP.
WE'RE FAMILY.

what made her day was when he confessed to her that he
thought she looked cute that day. it's the simple things in
life that make her smile(:

she wasn't bitter, but she was sad.
but it was the hopeful kind of sad,
the kind of sad that just takes time.

i was mid-laugh when you called. just reading your name from
my phone stunned me so fiercely that for two seconds, i truly
couldn't breathe. and from my sudden silence, all of my friends
could tell that it was you.

"it's always scary for people to fall in love, but it's a healthy fear. i think that nothing is healthier.
people are fragile. people can be hurt. sometimes it's good to take steps toward letting yourself
into something, but it's not healthy to just throw your emotions around and be available to every-
one; because people can walk all over you."

"if you don't dream big,
what's the point in dreaming?"

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.

things will happen in your life that you can't stop.
but that's no reason to shut out the world.

you can run from dissapointments you're trying to forget. but it's only when you embrace the past
that you truly move forward. maybe thomas wolfe never got to go home again, but i found my way
there. and i'm glad i did.

be optimistic, don't be so grumpy, when the road gets bumpy;
just smile, smile, smile, be optimistic.

i don't need a 5 page long paper to explain the way i feel about you, and i don't need a huge quote.
here it is; i love you, you're amazing, you've made me happier than i've ever been, and if i ever get
the chance to make you feel the same way, i'd do it in a heartbeat.<3

you've brought out the best in me.
no one's ever got me smiling like you do.

"i don't know if you've noticed, but i'm trying not to show that i'm scared.
that one day i might wake up and realize that you are not there."

"sweet dreams and sleep tight. i've been trying so hard, can't get you out of my mind and if this is how
it has to be, just promise you won't forget me; and i'll leave you with this lullaby tonight."

"i will carry you in my heart. you'll always be my shooting star.
autumn days will fade away, but memories will stay the same.
i'm hoping you will never change, don't ever change.

they say talk is cheap;
but i bought every single word.

so she'll sit up another night without sleeping, because he's still online.
and she doesn't want to miss the chance of him talking to her.

when you stop fighting, you stop living. we all need the thing that's worth fighting for. maybe it's a certain
someone or a special place, or maybe it's just an idea. so find your fight, and fight like hell until your battle
is won.

all those nights we stayed up on the phone until we couldn't keep our eyes open,
thanks for never hanging up.

they say that we're too young to understand what love is. but i say that we're capable
of loving each other as much as we know how.

i guess i'm just not the girl for you. you need a girl who's happy and perky all the time. maybe a girl who has
had part of her brain removed and thinks she is a bunny. and you can go off and be bunnies together, asshole.

"so now i know what i have to do. i have to keep breathing. and tomorrow the sun will
rise, and who knows what the tide will bring in."

we both took some wrong turns. and hurt each other a little too much. our stubborness was what kept us apart,
neither of us wanted to give in...to forgive the other first. but in the end, we both lost. i don't care about how
many lips you kissed or how many hands you held. i don't care about being your first...i just care about being your
last.

"i'm just a small girl in a big world trying to find somebody to love."

"and the things that i remember best - those are the things i wasn't supposed to do and i did them anyway.
the thing is, life is too damn short to following these rules."

"even if i said i didn't care a million times over again,
you'd know that i still do."

"people need love,
even if they don't deserve it."

goodbye is the hardest thing to say. because you walk away with only memories.
and memories, well, memories seem to fade.

"over the course of the average lifetime, you meet a lot of people. some of them will stick with you through thick and thin. some wave their way through your life and then disappear forever. but once in a while, someone comes along who earns a permanent place in your heart."
