“Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong”

“I’m not saying it will be perfect, it seldom ever is, BUT what’s wrong with giving love another chance? I want to make new memories with you, Chase. I want you to show up at my house for a date. A real date. I want to stress over what to wear. I want to miss you when you’re not with me. I want to get all giggly whenever you call saying you need to hear my voice one last time before you can go to sleep. I want get jealous because some girl realizes what I’ve got and tries to convince you … you can do better. I want to smile when you tell her that she doesn’t have a chance….” -Chasing Memories”

“You can be anything in this life no matter what anyone says - all you have to do is believe, just believe in yourself.”

“For better, worse or different, sometimes when things go back to normal, normal simply isn't normal anymore.”

“Why is it that adults are always telling kids to go watch television as though we have nothing better to do?”

“Will looked back at me, startled, and I kept my heart muscle strong, feeling something inside me shiver like a pale green flower shoot just waking up for spring. But whatever that thing was, it was still too new to feel ready to bloom; it wanted time to set down roots. Someday soon I was going to bloom like crazy and then I'd have what I needed to keep me standing tall.”

“It can take a lot of strength to show up and be yourself...don't you think?”
