“Figure out what makes you laugh, and do more of it. Figure out what makes you cry, and do less of it.”

Be a bit of a challenge; not because you’re playing games but because you realize you’re worth the extra effort.

There is never a moment when God is not in control. Relax! He’s got you covered.

You don’t have to knock anyone off their game to win yours. It doesn’t build you up to tear others down.

There is no model, no actress, no Miss America contender that can outshine a happy, confident, secure woman.

A busy, vibrant, goal-oriented woman is so much more attractive than a woman who waits around for a man to validate her existence.

A season of loneliness and isolation is when the caterpillar gets its wings. Remember that next time you feel alone.

No matter how much you stress or obsess about the past or future, you can’t change either one. In the present is where your power lies.

Sometimes it takes a wrong turn to get you to the right place.

When life brings you full circle, pay attention. There’s a lesson there.

She has to have four arms, four legs, four eyes, two hearts, and double the love. There is nothing “single” about a single mom.

It’s OKAY to be scared. Being scared means you’re about to do something really, really brave.

Be careful, her hell is lovely, dark, and deep until she weeps.

What if my ink runs dry or I have no words to sum up the tears I cry how do I write about nothing?

With all your words of glass, I felt the wedding dress rip If I don’t want to give you the satisfaction of seeing me cry why should I want to give you the rest of my life?

Humans need breaks. Humans need to cry. Humans need to feel mad, sad, happy, and all the emotions in between. And humans need to have boundaries. 

Even the sky wept when you left.

Santa sobs recalling December’s decor, navigating joys volcano, overcoming dawns of insomnia, waking the snowflakes to find, yearlong sleep, which delightfulness sneaks!

I cry because I don’t know how to help you, but I can’t even help myself.
