Quotes and Stuff

I was sorting through some quotes I have and found some that I thought I'd post for some of my friends who are going through a tough time:

Life is about who you love and who you hurt. It’s about how you feel about yourself. It’s about trust, happiness, and compassion. It’s about sticking up for your friends and replacing inner hate with love. Life is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance, and building confidence. It’s about what you say and what you mean. It’s about seeing people for who they are and not what they have. It is about choosing to use your life to touch someone else’s in a way that never could have been achieved otherwise.

Don't waste your time on someone who isn't willing to waste their time on you.

Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful.

You’ll never leave where you are until you decide where you’d rather be.

It’s not about being who everyone else wants you to be, it’s about being yourself and finding someone who loves every part of it.

Some say holding on is what makes you strong. But sometimes it takes much more strength just to let go and move on.

"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those that matter don't mind.”-Dr. Seuss

“I try so hard but I always fall short. So I’ve faced the truth of my weakness. There’s nothing good that I can bring forth, but I stand in the strength of Your presence. I’ve wasted time always trying to face things alone, but I wait here now and I lay it all down.”

“In times of brokenness You always show the depth of love that You bring me. I'm kneeling down in Your presence I know. Your source of life I'm receiving. I place myself in Your arms that will always lead me. And I won't let go cause there's nowhere else to go.”

“This rock is tied around my ankle. This thorn is buried in my skin. I wonder why I have to struggle. But then again…if I wasn't drowning I wouldn't need you to save me and if I wasn't broken I wouldn't need you to heal me.”
