One Shot

Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted in one moment
Would you capture it? Or just let it slip?

~Lose Yourself by Eminem~

I have one shot alright. One shot to get through college. One shot to get my teaching degree. One shot to get as far from what I know and do what I want to do. Sometimes my dreams seem so crazy. I mean who would have ever thought that a poor girl from Orland would get into college. Who would have thought that she would be succeeding? Who would have thought she would be about to go into her student teaching? I am so close to having my dreams unfold that I can taste them. And sometimes I want it so bad that it hurts. I have been given this great opportunity to learn everything I need to in order to be a great teacher, to be better than any one would have ever imagined me to be. I can be something great. I can be a teacher and a writer. I can travel the world. I can be anything I want to be. I can feel myself getting closer and closer everyday. But every step is difficult. I have to remind myself every day that failure just isn't an option. Its succeed or do what my parents did. Work a job I hate so that I can eat.

Soul Mates

"A true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that's holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life."

~From Eat, Pray, Love

Since You Been Gone By Kelly Clarkson

Here's the thing
We started out friends
It was cool, but it was all pretend
Yeah, yeah, since you been gone
You're dedicated, you took the time
Wasn't long 'til I called you mine
Yeah, yeah, since you been gone
And all you'd ever hear me say
Is how I picture me with you
That's all you'd ever hear me say

But since you been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on, yeah yeah
Thanks to you, now I get what I want
Since you been gone

How can I put it, you put me on
I even fell for that stupid love song
Yeah, yeah, since you been gone
How come I'd never hear you say
I just wanna be with you
Guess you never felt that way

But since you been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on, yeah, yeah
Thanks to you, now I get, I get what I want
Since you been gone

You had your chance, you blew it
Out of sight, out of mind
Shut your mouth, I just can't take it
Again and again and again and again

Since you been gone (since you been gone)
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on, yeah yeah
Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now I get, I get what I want
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on, yeah yeah
Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now I get (I get)
You should know (you should know) that I get
I get what I want

Since you been gone
Since you been gone
Since you been gone

Letting Go

“If you love somebody, let them go. If they return, they were always yours. If they don't, they never were.”

Where Bullies Come From

‎"Dear America, when you tell gay Americans that they can't serve their country openly or marry the person that they love, you're telling that to kids too. So don't be shocked and wonder where all these bullies are coming from that are torturing young kids and driving them to kill themselves because they're different. They learned it ...from watching you."

~Sarah Silverman~

Hope

“Hope will never be silent.”

~Harvey Milk~

Failure

“It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live
so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all – in which
case, you fail by default.”

~J. K. Rowling~
Harvard Commencement Address, 2008

Love and Judging

"If you judge people, you have no time to love them."

~Mother Teresa~

Emerson's Religion

"The stationariness of religion; the assumption that the age of inspiration is past, that the Bible is closed; the fear of degrading the character of Jesus by representing him as a man; indicate with sufficient clearness the falsehood of our theology. It is the office of a true teacher to show us that God is, not was; that He speaketh, not spake. The true Christianity--a faith like Christ's in the infinitude of men--is lost. None believeth in the soul of man, but in some man or person old and departed."

~An Address by Ralph Waldo Emerson~

Religion

My true religion, my simple faith is in love and compassion. There is no need for complicated philosophy, doctrine, or dogma. Our own heart, our own mind, is the temple. The doctrine is compassion. Love for others.

~Dalai Lama~

In Love

“You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.”

~Dr. Seuss.~

Made Me Smile

Tough girls come from Georgia, Sweet girls come from Alabama. But We Maine girls have fire & ice in our blood. We can ride four wheelers, be a princess, throw left hooks and drink with the boys..and if we have an opinion, you know you're gonna hear it!! Repost if you are a true Maine girl!

Passion

From, "Daphne with Her Thighs in Bark"

the opposite of passion
is not virtue
but routine.


~Eavan Boland~

Change

God please grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the weaponry to make the difference!!!

-Stolen from Wendy's Facebook Status

Friendship

Friendship is a single soul dwelling in two bodies.

--Aristotle
