Favorite Quotes/Sayings?

[Kirstie]

Another idea. I love finding new quotes and sayings...it's something I'll do when I need to feel a bit better.
I found this on a friend's Facebook, and I posted it on my Instagram also.

"I have given my heart to people who only wanted my body. I have given my love to people who are still only capable of "like". I have treated boys like they were my man. I have called jokers my king. I have put people first who I am always second to. I have given the world to people who don't even deserve a city. I have thought the world of people who only think the world of themselves. I have held people close to my chest who ran over my heart. I would love to blame "people" for doing all of these things to me, but I have to realize that every hurtful thing that I've written starts with "I".
-Jessica Jarrell

This really got to me...because it's so true. It's hard for me to do but I have to realize I don't need some baby guy to make me happy, because all they've done is succeed in making me more depressed. I need to focus on myself more. One day at a time, I guess.

We can even make this into a quote of the day type thing, who knows. xD

Excellent post, Kitty. That's what we've been trying to tell you. YOU are in charge of your life. An old saying is to "grab the bull by the horns" (no, dear, not by the onions.) YOU get to decide what you want and YOU get to go get that.

The first step is realizing that. You're on your way, girl!!!

Thank you, Walt! x3 It'll take some time but I'm getting more comfortable with it!

Song lyric, from one of my fave singers, Christina Aguilera.
"When there's no one else, look inside yourself. Like your oldest friend, just trust the voice within." x3 People are iffy on Christina's stuff. They either love her or hate her but it's a great song. Called "The Voice Within". XD
