The greatest challenge in life is finding someone who knows all your flaws, differences, mistakes and still loves you with everything they have.

I don’t pretend to know what love is for everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me. Love is knowing all about someone and still wanting to be with them more than any other person. Love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including the things you might be ashamed of. Love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone but still getting weak knees when they walk into a room and smile at you.

Sometimes it’s easier to say that you don’t care than to explain all the reasons why you do.

Certain people enter our lives at the most random times but it’s usually for the most beautiful reasons.

Never let go of hope. One day you will see that it all has finally come together. What you have always wished for has finally come to be. You will look back and laugh at what has passed and you will ask yourself, “How did I get through all of that?”

Always aim high. Work hard and care deeply about what you believe in. When you stumble, keep faith. And when you’re knocked down, get right back up. And never listen to anyone who says you can’t or shouldn’t go on.

— Hilary Clinton

Change is a funny thing. We are never quite sure what we are becoming, or why. Then one day we look at ourselves and wonder who we are and how we got there.

The choice is either black or white, not shade of gray. Because in love, there is no such thing as half-way.

You change for two reasons: either you learn enough that you want to or you’ve been hurt enough that you have to.
