Dear D,

It seems like just yesterday that we were little girls in church, giddy and whispering. Now we're high school seniors, ready to graduate, ready to move into the real world that we've been preparing so long for. I haven't seen you since freshman year when you moved across the state. We talk occassionally on facebook, but I wonder what you're up to. Hows your family? School? Boyfriend? Track and cross country? I kind of wish we could have gone through high school together. But it's okay; I had you thrugh elementary school and middle school. Do you remember those classes that we would sit through with Mrs. K, Mrs. W, and Mrs. B? Ohh man, those were some good times. What an odd little group we were. I hope you are doing well. Hopefully we'll bump into one another soon.

<3 K

For once I want to be that girl that makes the player fall. I want to be the girl that makes him change and give his all. For once I want to be the girl that got him to quit his game, retire his jersey, and draw hearts around my name

Life is all about balance. Too much and too little
can kill. The best way to balance life is by
setting your boundaries in learning to say enough.
z190631000
Someday we'll forget the hurt, the reason we cried,
and who brought us the pain. We will finally realize that the
secret of being free is not revenge, but letting things unfold
in their own ways and own time. After all, what matters most
is not the first, but the last chapter of our lives which shows how well we ran the race. So smile, laugh, forgive, believe and
love over and over again.
z214115392
 
It's not that we aren't meant to be together,
it's just we aren't ready for forever.
z215435631
 
i'll understand your silence.
because sometimes,
you'll have to understand mine.
z218210207
I promise to sing to you after all the music dies.
Marry Me, Train
z219792205
you're the reason i check my phone every five minutes
just to see if i have a new message, even when i don't.
z220022761
I miss those midnight conversations. I miss how you would make me laugh out of my own frustration. But you just come to know that you get so used to being loved, and in one second it can all come crashing down. Now I know to not let anything get that far ever again, because I didn't know how I could wake up one morning and have it all hit me. I didn't know I could miss you this much.
z219991115
I'll screw up. i'll push you away if we're getting too close. i won't trust you until you've proven yourself. i get hurt easily and take a lot of things personally. but i'll love you with everything i have, and if that isn't enough, then i'm not enough.
 
 
do you want to know the truth? i'm scared, okay? i'm terrified to get too close to you because i don't want to get my heart broken. i'm afraid that if we take this further, i'm just going to get hurt and to be honest, i don't think i could take that.

Dear J,
Wow, I miss you. I know we throw that phrase around often - much too often, but it's true. We were best friends freshman/sophomore year, and when you moved, everything changed. You were (and still are) so genuine and trustworthy. You have been such a loyal, caring friend to me. When you moved, I immediately thought, wow, that is one friendship I never want to lose. And of course, our friendship has changed over these past two years. But I am still so glad that we can talk, text, and facebook each other without it being strained and weird. You've moved again since then, to go to college. I wish we could go through this stage of life together without being sepearated by so many states. You have been such a dear, precious friend, and I never want to lose the sweet friendship we share, no matter how far away we are from each other.
I love you,
Katie

A lot of laughs, lots of tears
Spilling drama & the fears.
Talking 24 hours on the phone
Where each other's houses
Are like our second homes.
Something so strong, it could never bend
Yeah, that's what you call best friends.

b217270948

The key to life--
be weird. Take random
pictures do something
no one else would expect
you to do. Talk to someone
you never would. Be someone
people think you aren’t. Show
who you really are. Don’t
hide under your smile

tumblr_l9ish8fcpR1qbogfso1_500

The truth is, I don't really like to think about college. Cause that means high school's over. 
After graduation, everyone will probably go play basketball. Or sing or start record labels, -and I'll have to start all over. Alone. I'm sure I'll be fine. But like I said, I don't like to think about it. 
-Brooke Davies, One Tree Hill

The simple truth is thus: just trust God, for He will provide.
He will bring a happy ending to the drama we all live. Believe,
and it shall be. Trust, and it will be yours. He might tell
us to wait, but He rarely tells us no. If you have patience and
are strong of heart, nothing can stand in your way. There is so
much more to life than listing all of the horrible things that
get thrown our way

tumblrl8gd4t1jp81qzabkf

 

 

It happens to everyone as they grow up.
You find out who you are and what you want.
And then you realize that the people you've
known forever don't see things the way you do.
And so you keep the wonderful memories, 
but you find yourself moving on.

Dear J, A, M, and H,
I miss you precious four. Your sweet smiles and giggles brighten my heart. I wish you all weren't so far away. Maybe next year I'll be closer to you. Your sweet phone calls cheer my day. As do your silly pictures and stories. Sometimes I miss you so much it hurts. Because I just want to hang out with you. And do something fun, or do nothing at all. And maybe have a sleepover. And watch a movie. And feed you all enough candy to make your parents hate me. But that's what aunties are for :) As you get older, never think that distance makes it so you can't tell me something. I love you all so much. Trust in Jesus always. Never be afraid of who He created you to be.

it's those days where
we sit around & do nothing
it's the moments where
we laughed so hard, we cried
it's the way we can look at each other 
& know what's going through the other's head
it's those stupid pictures & the jokes
those are the reasons why
we're best friends..

 

I believe in sleeping in. I believe in giving 100%
when you only have 80. I believe in love, arguing
& jamming out by yourself in the car. I believe in
kisses on the forehead. I believe in long kisses,
smiling till your cheeks hurt & laughing until you cry.
I believe in being silly & crazy with your friends.
I believe in taking chances & making mistakes.
I believe in having someone tell you you're beautiful.
I believe in swinging on swings & running in the rain.
I believe in miracles & random acts of kindness.
I believe in saying hello to anyone & everyone.
I believe in 2nd chances & that everyone deserves one

 

I'll call nobodies and make them somebodies; 
I'll call the unloved and make them beloved. 
In the place where they yelled out, "You're nobody!" 
they're calling you "God's living children." 
Romans 9:26

 

People don't play sports because its fun. 
Ask any athlete, most of them hate it, 
but they couldn't imagine their life without it. 
It's part of them, the love/hate relationship. 
It's what they live for. 
They live for the practices, parties, cheers, laughs, 
long bus rides, performances, 
countless pairs of different types of shoes, water, 
Gatorade, & coaches you hate but appreciate. 
They live for the way it 
feels when they beat the other team, 
and knowing those two extra sprints 
they ran in practice were worth it. 
They live for the way they become a 
family with their team, they live for the 
countless songs they sing in their 
head while practicing all those hours. 
They live for the competition, they live 
for the friends, the practices, the memories, 
the pain, it's who they are. It's who I am. 
I am an Athlete.

& maybe someday we'll figure all this out, put an end to all our doubts & try to find a way to make things better now. – rob Thomas

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense. --Ralph Waldo Emerson

I’ll help you up when life gets you down. Remember to smile and never frown. Live life crazy with no regrets. Never look back but never forget.

You just have to live your life
Don't care and shake off the drama
Prove that you are better

Right now it’s just choosing to worship all the time; that’s what it is for me. Because I don’t – I don’t always feel like it. And I don’t feel like singing to God. But I know that my circumstance in this season doesn’t change that God is still God. It doesn’t change what God calls me to be or what He’s called me to do. And He’s still on the throne in heaven, and He still rules, and He’s still bigger than everything I’m facing. 
- Jill McCloghry

Even when you’re singing things that you know are true, but you might not necessarily fully understand it, I think that just being able to look at God and say things that are true of Him and declare the word of God and declare the promises of God, which is that when I’m in the fire and when I’m being refined and when I’m in a battle and when the triumph isn’t here yet, but its coming, I think that you look at God and say this is who you are & he does get bigger in your life. And he takes over the things in you that feel so shattered and it makes him the focus and he begins to put the things back together.

Dear L,
Oh my goodness, so much has changed since we've been friends. Of course, it's not like we're not friends now. But we don't really talk. And we don't really see each other. I'm pretty sure at least one of those things is necessary for a friendship. But freshman year you switched schools, and although our parents are best friends, we didn't see each other much after that. What happened? We always talk about hanging out. But we never do. You just moved to Montanna, and I know you'll have a great experience. You have a beautiful heart. You have a beautiful smile. You are a beautiful girl. Go embrace what God has for you; love others that you come into contact with. You always do. Go be His hands and feet to a world that doesn't know Him. And even though we don't talk very much, I love you.

Don’t ever let life put you down; just know that 
you’ll be you. At some point you will change, but 
life’s not going to do that for you. You’re going to 
have to seek & find how that works, but just don’t 
let anyone stop you from doing what you need to do.

z213518038

Sometimes there is nothing to be said.
Sometimes nothing should be said.
Sometimes you just need a safe place,
to find someone who won't run away.
Someone to look you in the eyes
and tell you it's okay that things
don't always go right.
That this is how life works,
and how it will always work.
That it's not going to be easy, today,
tomorrow, or the next day,
but it will somehow get better.
And that’s what you deserve.
Don’t settle for any less than that.

z210570533

Choose to love rather than to hate.
Choose to laugh rather than to cry.
Choose to create rather than to destroy.
Choose to persevere rather than to quit.
Choose to praise rather than to gossip.
Choose to heal rather than to wound.
Choose to give rather than to steal.
Choose to act rather than to procrastinate.
Choose to grow rather than to rot.
Choose to pray rather than to curse.
Choose to live rather than to die

z210039058

Not everyone is meant to make a difference. But for me, the choice to lead an ordinary life is no longer an option.
( Spiderman )

z194713081

No matter how many plans we make or steps we follow, we never know how our day is going to end up. We'd prefer to know, of course, what curve balls will be thrown our way. It's the accidents that always turn out to be the most interesting parts of our day, the people we never expected to show up, a turn of events we never would have chose for ourselves. All of a sudden you find yourself somewhere you never expected to be and it's nice, or it takes some getting used to. Still, maybe you’ll find yourself appreciating it somewhere down the line. So you go to sleep each night thinking about tomorrow, going over your plans, preparing for them, and hoping that whatever accidents come your way will be happy ones.
