The vastest things are those we may not learn.<br /> We are not taught to die, nor to be born,<br /> Nor how to burn<br /> With love.<br /> How pitiful is our enforced return<br /> To those small things we are the masters of.<br /> --Mervyn Peake

Love is Greater, than the Pressure to be Perfect. <br /> What People Say ; Doesn&#039;t Define Who I Am.<br /> I I&#039;m A Boomerang, Doesn&#039;t Matter How You Throw Me, Turn Around And I&#039;m Back In The Game, Even Better Then The Old Me

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 heart beat, or will stay awake to watch you sleep, wait for the boy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show ou off to the world when you&#039;re just in sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends. Who thinks that you&#039;re just as pretty without make-up on, one who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares and how lucky he is to have you...The one who turns to his friends with a smile and says, &quot;She&#039;s the one!&quot;
