“I find the best way to love someone is not to change them, but instead, help them reveal the greatest version of themselves.”

When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive—to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love—then make that day count!

We can’t undo a single thing we have ever done, but we can make decisions today that propel us to the life we want and towards the healing we need.

Cry. Forgive. Learn. Move on. Let your tears water the seeds of your future happiness.

She is delightfully chaotic; a beautiful mess. Loving her is a splendid adventure.

If you’re not comfortable enough with yourself or with your own truth when entering a relationship, then you’re not ready for that relationship.

Plant seeds of happiness, hope, success, and love; it will all come back to you in abundance. This is the law of nature.

Become the leader of your life. Lead yourself to where you want to be. Breathe life back into your ambitions, your desires, your goals, your relationships.

Look around you. Everything changes. Everything on this earth is in a continuous state of evolving, refining, improving, adapting, enhancing…changing. You were not put on this earth to remain stagnant.

Smile at strangers and you just might change a life.

If a man really loves a woman, of course he wouldn’t marry her for the world if he were not quite sure that he was the best person she could possibly marry.

My objectives are very limited. I want to do the best I can with the talent God gave me. I hope to goodness that every novel I do gets better and better, not worse and worse.

Grow old with me. The best is yet to be. The last of life for which the first was made.

Absence was always your best side.

Best way to live in California is to be from somewheres else.

The night is my best friend. It calms the storm in my soul and it lets the guiding stars rise.

Where the heart is the mind works best.
