Here are some of the quotes that you all shared with me and with the rest of us on the board.. I thought they were all great and offered alot of hope and peace showing that if you believe hard enough and strong enough in love peace and hope that dreams will come true and that good things will happen.

I love you all and I wish you all a very happy safe and healthy holiday season and I hope that the new year only brings good things your way and that you all find the happiness we all deserve.

"The best thing about the future is that it comes only one day at a time"

"Sometimes you make the right decision and sometimes you make the decision right"

"reputation is what other people know about you. Honor is what you know about yourself."

"It's alright letting yourself go as long as you can let yourself back"

"Do what you can with what you have where you are"

"Learn from the mistakes of other: you can't live long enough to make them all yourself"

"In the depths of winter, I finally realize that within me ther lay an invincible summer"

"Love is blind-it sees more, not less. But because it sees more, it is willing to see less"

"Dreams permits each of us to be quietly and safley insane each and every night of our lives"

"No man (or woman) is worht your tears, and the one who is wont make you cry"

"you don't love a woman becuase she is beautiful, but she is beautiful because you love her"

"all men who have achieved great things have been great dreamers"

"learn from yesterday, live for today, and hope for tomorrow"

"Enjoy life, there is plenty of time to be dead"

"Happiness is a choice that requires effort at times"

"Most people would rather be certain they are miserable than risk being happy"

"When a door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us"

"The furute belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams"


I plan on adding more to this but I thought that it would be a nice idea to share with each other the words that make us feel so good at the times when we feel so bad, what I did was printed up this sheet that way I can carry it with me and whenever I feel a trigger comming on I can just pull it out and read it.

In the past doing something like this has helped me alot and trust me I have about a million triggers each day that I encounter and it takes my entire being to control myself.

we are all on a long tough road with alot of raod blocks and things of that nature but we all will be okay and we will fight and over come alot of these road blocks and I have to believe that I will not be like this forever that one day I will find my happiness and I will get my butterflies back (I get them when I fall in love which has only been once but hoping that it will happen again soon)

My life has not been easy but it has not been horrible I have learned alot from what I have experianced and I hope I keep learning more as each day passes and I have grown stronger from what life has dealt me I have no resentment towards my past if I did that then I would have no energy left to live my life.

I believe that things happen for a reason that each of us have this battle because we can handel it because we are fighters and surviviors we are wonderful women stong women beautiful women.

My wish for everyone is peace we could all use a little peace in our lives..Yeasterday I went out to lunch with a friend of mine who is a marine he is visiting for 2 weeks I have not seen him in about 5 years I have known him for 14 years love him to death be is so cute and sweet, in the marines he is a seargent he teaches the new recruits how to kill(nice job huh) and we were talking and he kept saying that life is too short that we should enjoy each day that we get and he is right and I am guilty of not doing that of not enjoying each day each second and I am going to try so hard to start to do that migt as well you are never garunteed a tomorrow.

I love you all
