"These are the pieces of my youth, The small secrets and not-so-great expectations that defined my coming of age. But through this craft, through my love for writing, I discovered a world outside of the small windowless one I had built for myself. A world of soft-spoken beauty." daniel armand lee

I take everything day by day, I go with the flow; I let God take care of me. I'm blessed, and I'm happy.

“I am so beautiful, sometimes people weep when they see me. And it has nothing to do with what I look like really, it is just that I gave myself the power to say that I am beautiful, and if I could do that, maybe there is hope for them too. And the great divide between the beautiful and the ugly will cease to be. Because we are all what we choose.” ― Margaret Cho I’ve spent the last ten years of my life trying to find love. I spent a good amount of my teenagehood trying to fill that void in my heart. But somehow and somewhere I got lost. My world became dark and I lost myself to its darkness.  I never felt fulfilled because I lacked self-love.  Loving yourself is the best gift you can give oneself. Remember that in order to love another, you must love yourself. You must know that you are beautiful. You must know that you have a choice on how you want to be. Happy or Sad. If you ask me, I rather be happy. Cause sadness is just an awful feeling.  Be happy. Smile. And Love.

The flame in our lives.

Life is a burning flame. It burns with compassion, strength and destruction.  It is lit for those passerbyers, a flamed for the dreamers and burns for the lost ones.

However, to survive the fire is determined by the way we walk through this life. A flame can burn with passion, or it can destruct with pain. Whatever it may be, the choice is ours. 

To walk well through the flame is to live life with passion, strength and modesty. It is to have the ability to live life to the fullest and use the burning flame to achieve our dreams and to overcome the obstacles ahead.

Where there is a desire there’s a flame. Where there’s a flame, someone’s bound to get burned, but just because it burns doesn’t mean you’re gonna die. Get up and try. (Pink - ‘Try’)

Let the flame burn, burn a fiery passon within our hearts. A passion that will let us burn brighter, grow stronger and pave a clear road for ourselves ahead.

“There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves at a crossroad, afraid, confused, without a road map. The choices we make in those moments can define the rest of our days. Of course when faced with the unknown, most of us prefer to turn around and go back.”

Life happens in moments. Moments that take our breath away, instances that define our nature, people that shape who we are.

That’s life. Simple but yet not-so-simple. 

In life, there will be intersections to choose, roads to be crossed and streets to walk upon. But each step, every movement will lead us to our undetermined future.

The choices we make will determine our days. The people we befriend will build our future friendships. And the road we choose will be a future that’ll define us. 

Whatever the road, remember this:

This life we have is constantly in motion. Our surroundings are always transforming. But the life that will be is determined by our own actions, our own choices and our vision. Life can take a lot of things from you. But choice - now that will stay with you forever. 

Follow your heart. This life only happens once.

You can be the most beautiful person in the world and everybody sees light and rainbows when they look at you, but if you yourself don’t know it, all of that doesn’t even matter. Every second that you spend on doubting your worth, every moment that you use to criticize yourself; is a second of your life wasted, is a moment of your life thrown away. It’s not like you have forever, so don’t waste any of your seconds, don’t throw even one of your moments away. By C. JoyBell C.

To me, there are three things we all should do every day. We should do this every day of our lives. Number one is laugh. You should laugh every day. Number two is think. You should spend some time in thought. And number three is, you should have your emotions moved to tears, could be happiness or joy. But think about it. If you laugh, you think, and you cry, that’s a full day. That’s a heck of a day. You do that seven days a week, you’re going to have something special. By Jim Valvano

“Happiness is not a matter of good fortune or worldly possessions. It’s a mental attitude. It comes from appreciating what we have, instead of being miserable about what we don’t have. It’s so simple, yet so hard for the human mind to comprehend.” - Bits and Pieces
