Make a radical change in your lifestyle and begin to boldly do





Make a radical change
in your lifestyle and begin to boldly do things which you may previously never have thought of doing, or been too hesitant to attempt. So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservation, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun. If you want to get more out of life, you must lose your inclination for monotonous security and adopt a helter-skelter style of life that will at first appear to you to be crazy. But once you become accustomed to such a life you will see its full meaning and its incredible beauty.

don't tell yourself that it will end badly. you don't know that. you're a sweet and adorable girl, this guy would totally be missing out if he rejects you. :)

The reason i said it would end badly is because he already rejected me. The note just asks why. Well, technically he said he " wasn't ready " but I know that's a load of crap. And he gets nervous when I ask him to his face , so that's why I'm writing the note. :)

Good to know that this quote gave you the gentle push you needed. I hope things work out in your favor. (If you have confidence in yourself, they just might!)

hi, its me again. things haven't worked out, sadly, because he friend zoned me and is now hooked up with my 2nd closest friend who said that she wouldn't date him because I really liked him. so im in a bad position, and am very sad. to make things worse I am failing in school, and most of the teachers are getting sick of my bad attitude. I wish that I could change, and I found a new guy, but since the last one my hopes aren't set very high. I am just wondering when this pain will pass, and what will come after it. :)

I'm sorry to hear that. If you want my advice, it would be to focus on school and bringing your grades up. An education is worth your time; petty boy drama isn't. You have your entire life to find someone special, so don't rush it, and make what's more important your priority right now.
