&ldquo;Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will lie under the stars and listen to your heartbeat, or will stay awake just to watch you sleep... wait for the boy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends, who thinks you&#039;re just as pretty without makeup on. One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares and how lucky his is to have you.... The one who turns to his friends and says, &#039;that&#039;s her.&#039;&rdquo;

We live in illusion and the appearance of things. There is a reality. We are that reality. When you understand this, you see that you are nothing, and being nothing, you are everything. That is all.

All good is hard. All evil is easy. Dying, losing, cheating, and mediocrity is easy. Stay away from easy. <br /> Scott Alexander <br /> <br /> A word is dead when it is said, some say. I say it just begins to live that day. <br /> Emily Dickinson <br /> <br /> Not knowing when the dawn will come I open every door. <br /> Emily Dickinson
