&ldquo;Be very careful if you make a woman cry, because God counts her tears. The woman came out of a man&rsquo;s rib: Not from his feet to be walked on. Not from his head to be superior, but from the side to be equal. Under the arm to be protected, and next to the heart to be loved.&rdquo;<br /> <br /> live laught love<br /> <br /> hope is love and forgivness<br /> <br /> live life as if you die tomorrow<br /> <br /> fake it till you make it<br /> <br /> face up to the music an grab the bull by the horns<br /> <br /> you never lose by loving you lose by holding back<br /> <br /> its alright letting yourself go as long as you can get yourself back up<br /> <br /> she never gave up on my mom is my hero<br /> <br /> my mom had a great deal of trouble with me but i think she enjoyed it<br /> <br /> i dont judge you for what you belief in so why judge mine.

I&#039;ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. <br /> - Maya Angelou <br /> When i was little/I used to point a chubby finger toward the dark sky/And ask my father/why some stars moved and others didn&rsquo;t/He would laugh and explain that some were airplanes/I still wish on them today ~ Laugh-It-Out<br /> The feathers of a crow are black/The ink of my pen is blacker/The pain of my heart is blackest~ Mckay<br /> If love produced a blossom/I&rsquo;d take it in my palm/What a blessing, the bright color!/How soothing, such a balm!/I&rsquo;d keep a petal for my own/The rest, drop from my hands/For such a flower would multiply/And populate the lands~ thesilentraven<br /> And I began to rival legends/Long entombed before my birth./But for all my much envied fame/The lust for more would not abate./The plaques and prizes with my name/Will, like all things, disintegrate. ~ TheEpic95 now known as Helena_Noel
