"A relationship is about two people, who can be completely different, completely independent, putting forth efforts to make the same thing work, coming together to depend on the other to come through."
-Me (:"if he’s dumb enough to walk away, be smart enough to let him go."
"Of course we all have our limits, but how can you possibly find your boundaries unless you explore as far and as wide as you possibly can. I would rather fail in an attempt at something new and uncharted than safely succeed in a repeat of something I have done."
-A. E. Hotchner"When I woke up this morning, I went back to sleep.. went back to being as close as I can to you.. in my dreams."
-Lisa Nguyen (Me)"I’m a modern woman in the sense of I take care of myself, I’m fiercely independent, and I’m really ambitious. Yet I have these old-school thoughts in my mind. I do like to belong to a man. I love having a man in my life, and being his woman at the end of the day. I know it’s a dichotomy."
-Eva Mendes, July 2010 Issue of W Magazine
Be grateful is what I’m trying to say. No matter how down your life seems to be going, always always sit back.. and realize that you’re lucky to be alive. I definitely needed this to ground me. I won’t let what happens to me get to me. I dictate how my life will be and I will remember I’m blessed. With all the bad decisions I have made, it’s not like I can change the past, so I will stop pretending a genie will come and make that come true. I’m alive. I’m grateful. I just can’t get caught up in the minor details anymore. As long as I am who I am.. as long as I’m a good person.. and do the best I can without hurting anyone, I have the right to be happy.
