“Nothing
in the world
can take
the place
of Persistence.
Talent will not; nothing is
more
common than
unsuccessful
men with
talent. Genius
will not;
unrewarded
genius is
almost
a proverb. Education
will not;
the world
is
full of educated
derelicts.
Persistence
and determination
alone are
omnipotent.
The slogan
'Press On' has
solved and
always will
solve the
problems
of the human
race.”
―Calvin Coolidge

Life
is what
happens
when
you
are
looking
sadly
at the
past
and
looking
too
far
into
the
future
It’
Amazing
How
Someone
So Important
In Your
Life
Can
Just
Walk
Away.

Sometimes, the only reason why you won't let go of what's making
you sad is because it was the only thing that made you happy
I want you to fall apart like I did.
Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes
you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up
your heart and it means that someone can get inside
you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses,
you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing
can hurt you, then one stupid person, wanders into your
stupid life.. You give them a piece of you. They didn't
ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like
kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your
own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you.
It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness,
so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just
friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way
into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination.
Not just in the mind. It's a sould-hurt, a real get-inside-
you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love.

Happy? Oh yes, and I’m sure you
will be— -because you will make your own
happiness. You’ll tend it with all the care
of someone holding a last candle in the
dark. You’ll learn to make do with second best;
a great many men and women do, you know. Just a few know
what real happiness is— to love someone so much that
nothing else matters any more, only the two of you
and the life you share.
All
my life
I thought
air
was
free...
Until I bought a bag of chips.
