When life gives u lemons, make lemonade. Then, throw it in the face of the person who should've gotten you the oranges you orginally asked for.
What we do is determined by what we are. What we are is determined by what we think. What we think is determined by what we experience. What we experience is determined by what we are exposed to and what we do with that exposure.
(MIKE VANCE and DIANE DEACON)
Life is like a book with many different chapters. Some tell of tragedy, others of triumph. Some chapters are dull and ordinary, others intense and exciting. The key to being a success in life is to never stop on a difficult page, to never quit on a tough chapter. Champions have the courage to keep turning the pages because they know a better chapter lies ahead.
(RICH RUFFALO)
Because you're able to do it and because you have the right to do it, doesn't mean it's right to do it.

We are born with our eyes closed and our mouths open, and we spend our whole lives trying to reverse that mistake of nature.
(DALE E.TURNER)
You can have anything you want if you want it desperately enough. You must want it with an inner exuberance that erupts through the skin and joins the energy that created the world.
(SHEILAH GRAHAM)
We all have the ability. The difference is how we use it.
(STEVIE WONDER)
Everything is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Every great mistake has a halfway moment, a split second when it can be recalled and perhaps remedied.
One person can make a difference and every person should try.
The one thing worse than being alone is not being alone and wishing you were.
Real difficulties can be overcome, it is only the imaginary ones that are unconquerable.

The goal in marriage is not to think alike, but to think together.

Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not, but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.

When you look in the mirror, you are looking at the problem, but remember, you are also looking at the solution.
Live your life, so you don't have to hide your diary.
Dream what you dare to dream. Go where you want to go. Be what you want to be.

The first thing of importance is to have confidence in yourself, in your abilities.
(KATHARINE GIBBS)
Become a 'possibilitarian'. No matter how dark things seem to be or actually are, raise your sights and see the possibilities-always see them, for they are always there.
(NORMAN VINCENT PEALE)
DAVID COPPERFIELD just might be the greatest magician and illusionist of all time. He is definitely a legend in his own time. Here are some of his most inspiring quotes...
'The easiest thing in the world is to come up with an excuse not to do something. I found that the most important thing in life is to stop saying,'I wish,' and to start saying,'I will.'
'Before there can be wonders, there must be wonder.'
'Whenever I pursued my dreams, I discovered something astonishing-I discovered myself. My secret has been to consider nothing impossible. Then to treat possibilities as probabilities.'
'Passion is everything.'
'I learned that there were two ways I could live my life: following my dreams or doing something else. Dreams aren't a matter of chance, but a matter of choice. When I dream, I believe I am rehearsing my future.'
Miracles do not happen in contradiction to nature, but only in contradiction to that which is known to us of nature.
(SAINT AUGUSTINE)
The world is composed of givers and takers... the takers may eat better, but the givers sleep better.
Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired.
(ROBERT FROST)
Love is a fruit in season at all times and within reach of every hand.

My boyfriend and i have been going out for almost 4 months now. We both care about each other alot. His previous girlfriend and him broke up cuz she was moving to a different state. The three of us are all friends and we get along great. Well our town's home coming dance will be here soon and my bf called me and asked if he could go with her. Now at first i didn't mind. i know that they are going just as friends, and i don't really like dances anyway. But then i was thinking that how do i know if i don't like dances if i haven't actually experienced one. I didn't go as a freshman cuz i didn't have a date, but now that i am going out w/ him i would have a date. See i went to the middle school dances and they were boring, but i hear high school ones are different. So i guess i don't know what i should do. Neither of us have gotten to see bekah in a long time (the ex, my best friend, his ex) so should i tell him that i want to go with him even though they have been planing this for about a year, or should i just let them go?

Hey,
I read your problem and I totally understand what your going through and how confused you are and you don't know what to do.
But for starters, i have to tell you that your boyfreind really does love you and care about you,but he has other friends and people who he likes to hang out with , and even if she's his ex. Its not a big deal. Your already handling the situation perfectly from the beginning and you didn't mind. What changed your mind?
Look, i know that you should be the one going there with him, but maybe because he knows that you don't like parties and stuff ,and because you trust him and you know that he is just going with her as freinds ,then its okay and you wouldnt' mind .And he was right, because you didn't really mind at the beginning, and don't change your opinion about it, because your doing the right thing.
On the other hand, if your not satisfied with my avice or if this is what you didn't want to hear, then i have another suggestion, why don't the three of you go to the party together. You could hang out and have loads of fun ,besides, you say that the three of you get along great.
And if you have any other friends, guys or girls (which ofcourse you do have, no offense caused), then maybe someone could tag along with you to keep you company or something.
Just act natural and cool and let things fall down to place alone.
Have a nice day, and if you need any more advice or help, then please be free to contact me.
