Quotes that relate to me, Pictures that interest me, and my crazy thoughts

Don’t settle. Know what you want and reach for it. And if you don’t know what you want, be patient. The answers will come to you in time, and you may find that your heart’s desire has been right under your nose all the while.

—Julia Quinn, To Sir Phillip, With Love (via simply-quotes)

Yesterday marked the 7th anniversary that my town lost a great asset to our community. The day of Mikes funeral, our principal Mr. Mac put it best….

“The message that is often hard to hear but ultimately true that life must go on. But for us to go on, a part of Mike must remain with us. Part of him will stay alive. If there is one way to prepare for immortality, then Michael did it the right way: by loving like and living it as bravely, loyally and cheerfully as he did. If indeed the size of one’s heaven is measured by the dimensions of one’s soul, then worry not about Michael Monteleone. He is still hitting and catching drives down the third base line. Our lives are better today because Michael touched all of us. Thanks for playing on our team, Mike, thanks for coming through our neighborhood.”

RIP Mike. Never Forgotten. 

Ahhhhhhhhhh!

Believe me, I’m no romantic, and while I’ve heard all about love at first sight, I’ve never believed in it, and I still don’t. But even so, there was something there, something recognizably real, and I couldn’t look away.

—Nicholas Sparks, Dear John (via simply-quotes)

I don’t want to feel this way around him. I want things to be normal. I want to be his friend, not another stupid girl holding out for something that will never happen.

—Stephanie Perkins, Anna and the French Kiss (via simply-quotes)
