His love is passionate And indescribable The smile he gives me Changes my mood His touch defeats me If defeats my love of cued. I dream to dream of him When the sun leaves...

&quot;The only true love I ever knew<br /> Was behind those downcast eyes<br /> The only comfort I ever felt<br /> Was during those long hours of loneliness<br /> When I felt for you<br /> I do believe<br /> Only innocence can save the world...&quot; -Ocean Soul

&quot;I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they&#039;re right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe

&quot;You are your own person. Nobody can change that. If they do change you, You are no longer yourself. They cannot make you better or smarter or better looking. They can only make you worse.&quot;-Natalie (myself)

&quot;Hope. It is the only thing greater than fear. A little hope is effective. A lot of hope is dangerous. A spark is okay, as long as it&#039;s contained.&quot;

“The apple doesn't fall far from the tree." I guess that means we're just products of whoever made us and we don't have much control. The thing is, when people use that phrase, they ignore the most critical part: the falling. Within the logic of that saying, the apple falls every single time. Not falling isn't an option. So, if the apple has to fall, the most important question in my mind is what happens to it upon hitting the ground? Does it touch down with barely a scratch? Or does it smash on impact? Two vastly different fates. When you think about it, who cares about its proximity to the tree or what type of tree spawned it? What really makes all the difference, then, is how we land.”<br /> ― Val Emmich, Dear Evan Hansen
