Some people will try to condemn you to the prison of their bullshit. They tell you they want a soulmate, but they're actually creating a cellmate.

If you want to be with someone, be with them! Don't make excuses, cause drama, or make them fight for a spot in your life. Express your love and commitment with words and actions. And if you don't feel inspired to show your love this way, be kind enough to let them go... so they can find someone who will.

Being in a relationship doesn__ entitle you to anything. You don__ get what you expect, you get what you create.

When you say "I" and "my" too much, you lose the capacity to understand the "we" and "our".

Let__ agree to be honest from the start. I would rather feel the disappointment that comes with the realization that we are incompatible than to feel the pain and betrayal that comes with finding out that you're full of crap.

Relax. Refresh. Renew. Play. Sing. Laugh. Enjoy. Forgive. Dance. Love. Hug. Share. Kiss. Create. Explore. Hope. Listen. Dare. Trust. Dream. Learn. TODAY!

As jealousy entered, trust left... and their dream of a relationship began to wither into a nightmare... a nightmare in which love just wasn't enough.

Some people seem like a bright light during your darkest moment... a beautiful refuge... but it's a trap... there is only more pain there. Now that I think about it... I imagine that's what bugs feel like when they fly into the zapper.

It is only with true love and compassion that we can begin to mend what is broken in the world. It is these two blessed things that can begin to heal all broken hearts.

We__e all ridiculous_ all of us. It__ as though we use a lit torch to search for light. You are enough. Know this and proceed through life accordingly.

Remember when your curiosity inspired your investigative mind to explore and learn_ you weren__ bogged down with resentment, cynicism, and emotional baggage_ just think about how great it would be to return to that mindset of unencumbered learning and adventurous living_ you are just one choice away from that life_ choose to let go of the infertile past_ go live your adventure!

Life is a balanced system of learning, adjusting, and evolving. Whether pleasure or pain; every situation in your life serves a purpose. It is up to us to recognize what that purpose could be.

Each day carries in the blessings of God and you have unlimited access to all it offers.

In moments of prayer, people tend to pose as a critic and point out perceived flaws in God's art.

When I look back, I realize I was praying for something God had already given me.

Sometimes not getting what you want is God's greatest blessing.

Pray. Not just with your words, but with your actions.

Words reveal your beliefs and intentions. Actions reveal your character. When they are in alignment, they reveal your greatest life.
