She has lost her way, in this endless maze we call life. She tried and tried to keep up with the crowds, and lost all her light. Now she is shrouded in darkness, and has no way...

Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take... but by the moments that take your breath away.

&quot;If you can&#039;t fly then run, if you can&#039;t run then walk, if you can&#039;t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.&quot; <br /> -MLK

&quot;My life has been one big joke, a dance that&#039;s walked, a song that&#039;s spoke, I laugh so hard I almost choke when I think about myself&quot; Maya Angelou

&quot;God grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change, Courage to change the things i can, and Wisdom to know the difference. &quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Crying doesn&#039;t indicate that you&#039;re weak; Since birth it has been a sign that you are alive.&quot;

Favorite Quote:
Beautiful things come out of horrible situations. I know for a fact. Out of sadness you get a new found wisdom on how the world can look with a haze of gray clouds, how people can be senseless, how you can see the whole universe in a whole new way. And that may be hard to handle, hard to cope, hard to accept, but it is so damn beautiful if you really take the chance to realize. Out of anger, you can feel your heart beat race, with every beat it is shaking your whole being and not only the heavy steps you take. It is when you, your whole self and some power is telling you that you are alive. And that is amazing in every angle. Out of anything there is something in there that makes it incredible. Something that makes it shine. Whatever you feel is potent and it is such a blessing to be able to feel what you feel. You just have to think about it.
