“The moment you left, you took the beating right out of my heart with your last beat.”

The one thing that sits true among everything else – Love.

Animals don’t care what you look like. They care how you love.

The gift is right next to the wound.

I was running adrift then you came an anchor to my soul to my ship.

Time is just one moment of timelessness.

A starless sky in your eyes, I’ve already died a thousand stars over again.

I can’t get enough of you baby, give me one more breath.

Everything in due time for its own reason. – How things happen.

Its taken me my life time to relearn what I knew as a child, to love myself.

At some point you’re gonna have to take a chance on something.

Love is not always worth sacrificing yourself for.

And the stars and the sky and the moon agree, that I should be with you and you should be with me.

For the rest of my life you’ll visit my dreams, the only place we exist.

Its simple. Its love.

You were built to love.

Walk slowly with purpose.

I wrote in my first book that I was broken, and now it just makes me mad every time. This is why writing words in books is so precarious. This is why Jesus only wrote in the sand, right? I just – I hate that I wrote that.

Family is supposed to be our safe haven. Very often, it’s the place where we find the deepest heartache.

So I’m putting my defenses up, cause I don’t wanna fall in love. If I ever did that. I think I’d have a heart attack.

Hearts can break and never make a sound.

I have been given eyes to see and a mind to think, and now I know a great secret of life, for I perceive, at last, that all my problems, discouragements , and heartaches are, in truth, great opportunities in disguise.

For my part, I prefer my heart to be broken. It is so lovely, dawn-kaleidoscopic within the crack.

In broken states hearts sure do tell their best tales.

What’s lost, can be found. What’s broken, may be fixed. But what lives in denial of either of these will remain as it is.
