It takes nothing to join the crowd.
It takes everything to stand alone.

Memories are the architecture of our identity..

Spreading my wings alone I'd fly
That empty sky of blue..

Life is a great big canvas..and you should throw all the paint on it you can.

The Earth laughs in flowers..

I may not be there yet, but I'm closer than I was yesterday..

Have no fear, you will find your way. It's in your bones.. It's in your soul..

You act like it's you against the world, but it's really just you against yourself..

The moment one gives close attention to anything, even a blade of grass, it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself.

Life should be immeasurable, like the sky..

~ Did You Ever Think ~

Did you ever think
Of the blue sky
As your shield..?
A medium to guide you,
To protect you..
Through all the sorrow
And unseen pain..
Of your soul who never
Seems to let go
Of the ties,
Without an anchor
In this world
One is lost.. 

Some things just fill your heart without even trying..

The day will be what you make it..so rise, like the sun, and burn.

A wise man once said nothing..

"What if I fall?" Oh, but my darling - what if you fly?

I can feel you sweet song of summer..

But still, the other voice, the intuitive, returns, like grass forcing its way through concrete..

If I could live here...

Some days it's okay if all you did was breathe...

I thought, as the sun lifted once more from the sea, of how truly heartbreaking it is that we all feel so heavy, and somehow, so empty...

What would you do if you weren't afraid.. ?

Life is like the seashore; the waves come crashing, rocks erode away and the current pulls you out, yet... you still go with the flow.

I'd rather wear flowers in my hair, than diamonds around my neck.

The 4th...

Never forget who was there for you when no one else was..

I am the shore and the ocean, awaiting myself on both sides..

Solitude is a kind of freedom...

Courage, dear heart...

If you could sit down on this bench and chat with only one person, past or present, who would that be?

A ship is safe in harbor... but that's not what ships are for.

...make a wish...

I've learned that fear limits you and your vision. It serves as blinders to what may be just a few steps down the road for you. The journey is valuable, but believing in your talents, your abilities, and your self-worth can empower you to walk down an even brighter path. Transforming fear into freedom - how great is that?

Those with the softest hearts build the hardest shells...

It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see.

Climb the mountain not to plant your flag, but to embrace the challenge, enjoy the air and behold the view. Climb it so you can see the world, not so the world can see you.

Meet me where the sky touches the sea..

There are no rules of architecture for a castle in the clouds..

Art is the concrete representation of our most subtle feelings..

Dream higher than the sky and deeper than the ocean...

What are you staring at?

The ocean stirs the heart, inspires the imagination & brings joy to the soul..

A contented heart is a calm sea in the midst of all storms..

When you forgive, you do not erase the memory. You simply choose to forgive to free yourself from the bitterness. The memory stays, not to be forgotten but to be remembered as a valuable lesson.

We lose ourselves in the things we love; we find ourselves there, too..
