The six rules of maybe 1. respect the power of hope and possibilites. Begin with beleif. Hold onto it. 2. If you known where you want to go, you're already half way there. Know what you desire but, more imporantly, why you desire it. Then go. 3. hopes and dreams and heart's desires require a clear path-get out of your own way 4. Place hope carefully in your own hands and in the hands of others 5. Persist, if necessary 6. That said, most importantly-know when you've reached an end, Quit, give up, do it with courage. Giving up is not failing-it's the chance to begin again.

I guess forgiveness, like happiness, isn’t a final destination. You don’t one day get there and get to stay.

So I put up with bad behavior in the name of loving the way I thought you were supposed to love.

No one is ever quite as strong or as weak as you'd think.
