Random Quotes--Because I can.

I'm a lover of quotes, Funny quotes. Serious quotes. Silly quotes. I found a bunch of ones that made me laugh and sigh. Some are just random. Others are so ridiculously true. So I decided I want to share them:

We're fools whether we dance or not so we might as well dance.

I want to sleep but my brain won't stop talking to itself.

Then my soul saw you and it kind of went "Oh, there you are. I've been looking for you."

The first thing I'm going to write in my new journal is "Do you know anything about the Chamber of Secrets?"

If you want to know where your heart is look to where your mind goes when it wanders.

Do what you feel in your heart to be right--for you'll be criticized anyway. (I LOVE this one--I've learned this the hard way. I think that different things work for different people and I'm learning to be accepting of that. Slowly.)

If you think you're too small to have an impact try going to bed with a mosquito in the room.

ADMIT IT: At some point you've pretended that the floor was hot burning lava and jumping on the couch was the only way to survive.

Judging a person does not define who they are it defines who you are.

I love how in scary movies the person yells out "Hello?" as if the killer is going to be like "Yeah, I'm in the kitchen, want a sandwich?"

Why do we close our eyes when we pray? when we cry? when we dream? or when we kiss? Because we know that the most beautiful things in life are not seen but are felt by the heart.

I have this habit of sorting people I know into Hogwarts houses.

"Did you just fall?" "No I attacked the floor." "Backwards?" "I'm that freaking talented!"

1 Universe. 9 Planets. 204 Countries. 809 Islands. 7 Seas. And I still found you.

Feed your faith and your fears will starve to death.

Ice Bank Mice Elf (Read it out loud.)

No soliciting: We found Jesus, we love our vacuum, we gave at the office, and my kids are most likely selling the same stuff.

Everyone says that love hurts, but that's not true. Loneliness hurts. Rejection hurts. Losing someone hurts. Everyone confuses these things with love, but in reality, LOVE is the only thing in this world that covers up the pain and makes us feel wonderful all over again.

Be a Fruitloop in a world full of Cheerios.

I like people who smile when its raining.

If I could choose again I'd still choose you.

Let's eat Grandpa. Let's eat, Grandpa. Correct punctuation can save a person's life.

When you think that you're screwed remember that we're all on a big wet ball floating in the dark.

Liking your own Facebook status is like highfiving yourself in public.

Always wear your invisible cronw.

If you tickle me I am not responsible for your injuries.

Note to self: I am enough.

You're pretty much my most favorite of all time in the history of ever.

That moment when you miss one step on the stairs and think you're going to die...

It is impossible to live without failing at something unless you live so cautiously you might as well not have lived at all--in which case you fail by default. -J.K. Rowling

30 Day Challenge--Day Twenty-four

Day 24 
A picture of something you wish you could change
I've worked as a Victim's Advocate in the past--I would probably talk about how big this is anyway BUT the past 3 weeks I have had 3 women in my life who are in abusive relationships. Two of them haven't even been married a year. The other isn't even married. And it breaks my heart.
These are amazing, beautiful, strong women. Women who have a lot to offer a man. The man who receives a woman's heart has received a gift. It's the same with women and men. In fact, period the end: If someone offers their heart to another, they are offering a gift that is beyond comparison. Priceless. And yet some take it for granted. Others destroy.
The destruction needs to stop. I have absolutely no respect for someone who can call their spouse names, who can isolate them, control them or cause them physical harm. If there's one class that should have been mandatory in school it should have been "Dating and Relationships" and there should have been a long section on abuse. And how those who abuse are weak, lack self control. And are basically scum of the earth.
There are many efforts to stop Domestic Violence but it comes down to the choices of the abuser. If I could change anything--it would be those choices.
