Hey Everyone... This is my goodbye entry. I have had soo much fun with all of you. I'm in a different stage of my life though, and icon posting is not part of it. I've put up everything I have left on my computer, and I hope that you will enjoy getting whatever you can out of it!
QUOTES
1. The magic is as wide as a smile and as narrow as a wink,
loud as laughter and quiet as a tear,
tall as a tale and deep as emotion.
So strong, it can lift the spirit.
So gentle, it can touch the heart.
It is the magic that begins the happily ever after.
2. Dream as if you’ll live forever
live as if you’ll die today.
-James Dean
3. Miss Minchin: Don't tell me you still fancy yourself a princess? Child, look around you! Or better yet, look in the mirror.
Sara: I am a princess. All girls are. Even if they live in tiny old attics. Even if they dress in rags, even if they aren't pretty, or smart, or young. They're still princesses. All of us.
--The Little Princess
4. "If I can't sit down and invest my life into someone, and learn to appreciate them as another person, then what right or basis do I have to tell them that what I believe is more legitimate than what they do? People believe in what is made 'real' to them. Don't tell someone Jesus loves them if you aren't willing to love them first." - Matthew Langston (Eleventyseven)
5. "Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so." - Douglas Adams
6. "A flyleaf is the blank page at the front of a book, it's the dedication page, the place you write a message to someone you're giving a book to. And, that's kind of what our songs are — personal messages that provide a few moments of clarity before the story begins." - Lacey Mosely (Flyleaf)

11. Someone is waiting, someone who understands
exactly how you feel. someone is dreaming;
someone is hoping just that this will be the day
that you take your eyes off the ground,
out of the blue, and see that someone is
looking right back at you.
12. Men hate to cry, they rarely ever do. But, when a man cries over you, you know he loves you. Because men only cry when they lost something or are afraid of losing something that they love as much or more than themselves
13. "I can forgive but I cannot forget"
is only another way of saying
"I will not forgive."
Forgiveness ought to be like a cancelled note;
torn in two and burned up so that it never can be shown against one
14. & dont we all hope for a boy, who,
as we smooth our hair &
tug at our clothes, will grab our hands,
smile, & ask us, "now what the heck

15. Beauty is judged by the size of your heart,
not the size of your jeans

& your hands are so soft to hold. the way your
arms hold me so perfectly & your body protects me

30. santa claus - the tooth fairy - prince charming.
they were so close you could taste them but, eventually you grow up, one day you open your eyes and the fairy tale disappears. most people turn to the things and people they can trust & the thing is it's hard to let go of
that fairy tale entirely, because almost everyone has that smallest bit of hope of faith that one day they will open their eyes and it will come true <3 (expressions_x3)

39. We live the life of an unfinished novel, still waiting to be written. Depending on how long we live, the longer the chapters. Depending on how interesting we are, the more we appeal to others. We're often judged by our covers. Sometimes, some people decide to just quit reading us. We're just forgotten until someone finds us. Our characters can develop throughout the novel, but our chapters can never be edited.

the worst thing in life is to lose a friend.
a friend that means the world to you - a
friend that you put all your trust and faith

start - a friend that took the center of your

that you wanted to cherish for a lifetime'-
a friend, a good friend, a best friend
48. We're the kind of girls who eat an entire box of oreos for fun. Who will walk 4 miles to the store
for a slushie but won't walk upstairs to get clean socks. We'll start laughing hysterically over a single word & you'll have no idea why. We'll run across town
under the streetlights laughing the entire way just because we can. We're there for each other when no one else is. The girls that stay up until 2 am
IMing nothing. We're the best friends that can't live without each other. We're best friends. we have marker fights, chasing each other around the room.
You never want to give us paint for an actual project,
because it will all end up on us. We can never concentrate on anything when we're together,
and it's probably a bad idea to give us something complicated to do. We laugh about absolutely nothing,
and get in trouble all the time, but all of this makes us best friends.
49. Yeah, we're annoying. We sing for long amounts of time, going off-key on purpose. We poke each other for no reason, burst out laughing in dead silence,
make stupid faces, call each other names, tell jokes that aren't funny, trip over our own feet, & know you won't ever get the things we find hilarious. But that's what makes us best friends.

53. Run through the rain, jump in the puddles,
and yell your heads off. Enjoy the times most people
are disappointed about.
54. But most of all, I love being free. Free to be.
Free to move through life and to feel the utter openness of surrendering to things unknown. Surrendering to the kaleidoscope of emotions but still feeling the center of your core. The willingness to move forward through the fear with faith and patience.

64. She was idealistic and naive. The people who met her for the first time couldn't believe how innocent she was. She knew things -- she intuitively knew things --
but she was untainted and really pure. Her naivety was like a breath of fresh air. People didn't understand her at times, and they would make fun. But there was something about her that made people feel free to live.
– rain_quotes
65. There is an inner beauty about a woman who believes in herself, who knows she is capable of anything she puts her mind to. There is a beauty in the strength and determination of a woman who follows her own path, who isn't thrown off by obstacles along the way. There is a beauty about a woman whose confidence comes from experiences, who knows she can fall, pick herself up, and go on.

For kissing, lady, not for such contempt.
