When your own words don't seem adequate... borrow some.

"It takes a long time to grow an old friend." - John Leonard

BFF is a very short abbreviation for a very long meaning. It takes years to find a best friend, and even longer to grow that 'one of a kind' connection. Once it is made, you could never regret it. A best friend is something we all hope of having one day if you don't already. It can be beautiful and wonderful at the same time as challenging and troublesome. Just like any other relationship it's not a walk in the park. it takes dedication and commitment to make it perfect, and every now and then you still may run into a bump in the road you need to work on. In the end it will be worth everything you put into it.

"It is far easier to make war than peace." -Georges Clemenceau

It takes less effort to be mean than nice. It takes less effort to be a bystander then be a contributor. It takes less effort to frown than smile. so what not go through life being a frowning, mean, bystander? because just because something is easier, doesn't mean its better. If you simply but a little more effort into all your actions in life, the outcome may be something much more enjoyable. Its sort of similar to talking to your family about what birthday present you want. If you man up and tell them exactly what would make you happy, you will be happy. If you say the easiest answer "i don't know", you'll end up with a bunch of socks and a gift card.

“If you're gonna be two-faced at least make one of them pretty.” ― Marilyn Monroe

girls have a reputation of being two faced bitches, and a lot of the time that reputation isn't too far from the truth. we are a gender of gossiping, lying, backstabbing, and self-centered people. granted, there are a few good girlies out there, but who stops to notice them when you can have a genuine Barbie doll with attitude. These girls aren't dumb though, they are smart. they know how to manipulate the people around them so that they can rule the hallways they walk through. there is no need to be nice to others when you have a band of loyal followers to serve you grapes from a silver platter... and a line of replacements at the door just incase one of them screws up. Whats beautiful about these girls is that once they step outside their classrooms into the real world their power suddenly is equal to the dust in the wind.

"If I get married, I want to be very married." -Audrey Hepburn

I wish the idea of marriage had remained the same over the years. I miss the times where your grandparents got married once, and they remained together until they needed hearing aids and had to live on creamed peas. Something in that just seems so beautiful to me. When i get married, i want to be married forever. I want to spend my life with one person "until death do us part". One wedding, one dress, one groom, one set of vows for life. I hope my marriage will be beautiful, with no worries of economics, divorce, or people standing in the way. When a ring is put on my finger it will remain there forever... and to be sure of that i will find the right man. He won't be perfect, but he will be right for me. If it takes a little longer than most, oh well. It will come eventually.
