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.
(Dr.LAURA SCHLESSINGER)

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.
(THEODORE N.VAIL)

The goal in marriage is not to think alike, but to think together.
(ROBERT C. DODDS)

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.
(EPICURUS)

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.
(CALVIN COOLIDGE)

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.
(MOTHER TERESA)

My big toe is broken. Plain and simple, it is definitely broken, please trust me. I haven't told my parents about this, because I am afraid to go to the doctor. It's been broken for about two weeks now. It feels like it hurts more and more everyday. Which might make sense, because since no one knows it's broken.. I am always the one having to go up and down the stairs for everyone and driving everyone everywhere. I never get to rest it. And it's disgustingly swollen. I just hide it like nothing is wrong, and no one would ever know. I just can't do it anymore. It hurts. So my question is, can anyone tell me what might happen if I go to the doctors? X-Ray? Height/weight? Think I might get a cast? Crutches? I am seriously very frightened. For the past two weeks I've felt like I'd rather live with this pain rather than face the music at the doctors. And another thing, is there any possibility the doctors might tell me it's best to leave it alone and stay off of it as much as possible? Could it "heal" on it's own? If I keep my mouth shut about it, will the pain eventually fade on it's own? What would be my consequences by not taking care of it in a proper medical fashion? Finally, I am over 18 years, and we don't have any sort of health insurance. How much would it presumably cost to take care of? Anything you can give me is more than I already have, so thank you so very much!! (link)
Hey whats up? My freind got her nose broken once, just like your toe.And when its broken, then no it can't be healed on its own, becuase broken means that the bone is not in its correct position, its misplaced to rephrase this.
Therefore, you should immediately tell your parents before it actually gets worse or totaly swollen and ruined. So save your self, besides doctors are so helpful and always know how scared you are and know how you feel , so they make an effort to calm you down and explain things to you to show you that there is no pain or discomfort involved. And don't you worry, because a broken toe is not anywhere near the line of pain. Its really simple and won't hurt at all, and you will see that once you tell your parents and go to a doctor. Think of what i said , and you'd be thinking straight. Take care of yourself, and if there is any other help or advice you need, please be free to contact me with a private message or email me and i will give you my prompt reply.
