V1: Red hair, Tears running Down your pretty face. They tell you that you’re different, Nothing to love…just to hate. V2: Walking, talking, Hiding the truth behind your eye...

Favorite Quote:
&quot;The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.&quot;<br /> -Elizabeth Kubler Ross

&quot;Someday soon we&#039;re gonna catch that dream we&#039;ve been chasing&quot;<br /> &quot;Seven days without a horse makes one weak.&quot;<br /> &quot;The worst part of riding is when you dismount.&quot;<br /> <br /> Insult my clothes, I say, &ldquo;Okay, thanks for the compliment.&rdquo;<br /> Insult the way I look, I say, &ldquo;Thanks for notifying me.&rdquo;<br /> Mock me and say riding isn&rsquo;t a sport, and I&rsquo;ll say,&rdquo;You say that &rsquo;cause you can&rsquo;t ride.&rdquo; But before you make fun of my horse, make sure you have &ldquo;911&Prime; on your speed dial.

When life gives you lemons,<br /> Eat them.<br /> They do not taste that bad.<br /> <br /> Life is like autumn.<br /> Stop to crunch the pesky leaves.<br /> <br /> Love is... let me think...<br /> <br /> Don&#039;t judge a book by its cover.<br /> <br /> Poetry is a way to put words to things that are unexplainable.
