I was looking for myself

"All my life I had been looking for something, and everywhere I

 turned someone tried to tell me what it was. I accepted their answers

 too, though they were often in contradiction and even

 self-contradictory. I was naïve. I was looking for myself and asking

 everyone except myself questions which I, and only I, could answer.

 It took me a long time and much painful boomeranging of my

 expectations to achieve a realization everyone else appears to have

 been born with: that I am nobody but myself." ~ Ralph Ellison,

Who i am

"I was once afraid of people saying 'Who does she think she is?' Now I have the courage to stand and say... 'THIS IS WHO I AM' Thank you!"

Someone will

"Someone will always be prettier.
                   Someone will always be smarter. 
                             Someone will always be younger.


         But they will never be me."

Wonder or wander?

"Sometimes 

           we spend life wondering

                      when,

                                 really we should be wandering. 

                       Explore life 

                                         and 

                                all of it's great mysteries."

Dear Independent woman

"Dear Independent woman, My goal was never to be your world, I just wanted to be the best thing in it." ~ AuthorJLFord

Be (U)nique

"Be yourself, Everyone else is already taken.

 Live your life, everyone else living theirs.

 Focus on you,

 because no one else WITH A LIFE OF THEIR OWN to live will. 

Be (U)nique." LifeDictionary

I miss you

"For it was not into my ear you whispered, 
but into my heart. 
It was not my lips you kissed, 
but my soul. 
                                I miss you!"

Miracles around me

"Miracles happen, 
                            this I have seen.
        It happens all around me and in between,
                             from the blade of this grass to you and me.
        If you stop to think what it takes for
                            a tiny little seed to become all this around
        I'd think you'd agree.
                            Science can alter and describe the profound,
        but cannot create it, 
                                                                         not on their own.


                      Seems pretty miraculous to me,
                                                                             I believe!" - icon

Behind my smile..

"Behind my smile is a hurting heart.
          Behind my laughs, Im falling apart.
                  Look at me closely and you will see
                           the person I appear to be,
                                                            just isn't me."

People, the mysterious

"People are such great mysteries. 

Just when we think we have understood them, 

a wonderful new aspect 

shows in them."

Expectations from others

"Sometimes 
         we expect more from others
                             just because 
      we would be


willing to do that much for them."

I dont live there anymore

"Don't look so hard at my past,
                          I don't live there anymore.
It may have helped get where I am,
                  But I am only keeping the best
                                    from there. So this is me,
            so either like what you see
                         or leave."

Why Complian

"I had no shoes and complained,
                 until I met a man who had no feet."
- Indian Proverb

I Promise

"I can't promise to solve all your problems, 

but I can promise you that

you won't have to face them alone."

About Me

"Strangers think I'm quiet, 


                     my friends think I'm outgoing


                                      & my best friends think I'm insane!"
