everything happens for a reason,
soemtimes things fall apart

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 not 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.
- one tree hill.
hope it helps <3

This is my fave quote of all time!!
I am nothing special; just a common man with common thoughts, and I've led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten. But in one respect I have succeeded as gloriously as anyone who's ever lived: I've loved another with all my heart and soul; and to me, this has always been enough.
Noah from 'The Notebook'

Life is going to throw you curve balls, it's how you deal with them that matters. Yoy can take a chance and swing, or figure out which ones to let pass you by so you don't strike out.
I said that. I had to write a story for my creative writing class and it just came to me. Hopefully that's how it was. I don't think I heard it anywhere and just remembered.

laugh for absolutely no reason at all;
have stupid fights that are over in ten minutes;
attempt to dance and sing like they do in the music videos;
have a billion"you-had-to-be-there" times;
gang up in the bitch that has a problem with one of us;
make fun of eachother when we walk into stuff;
act like we're all on crack;
and no matter what happens we're always there for eachother through good times and bad.
