“Because the truth is, if you want that big, passionate, all-consuming love, you’re going to have to go after it. You’re going to have to fight for it. You’re going to have to be willing to put yourself out there in a way that could potentially humiliate or break you. 

And at the end of the day, it might. 

But if you’re not willing to stick your neck out for love, than you’re never going to meet anyone else who is willing to, either. 

And frankly, if you’re not willing to give out the big, scary kind of love you’re searching for – then maybe you don’t deserve to find it at all.”

who will see the universe
that was knitted into your bones,

“To be rejected by someone doesn’t mean you should also reject yourself or that you should think of yourself as a lesser person. It doesn’t mean that nobody will ever love you anymore. Remember that only ONE person has rejected you at the moment, and it only hurt so much because to you, that person’s opinion symbolized the opinion of the whole world, of God.”

“Love. You're going to wish you did more of it. You're going to wish you risked having your heart broken more often. You're going to wish you could continue feeling as amazing, as horrible and as sad as love managed to make you feel.

Because those days — the ones that made you feel alive — are gone. I'd rather have my heart broken then to never love at all. Because I know for a fact that I will never regret falling in love. ”

“I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow
And each road leads you where you want to go
And if you’re faced with the choice and you have to choose
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you
And if one door opens to another door closed
I hope you keep on walkin’ ‘til you find the window
If it’s cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile.”
— Rascal Flatts, 'My Wish'
