..Quotes and such...

I'm such a dork that I love these little quotes and things that you see on myspace and now facebook... :) I like them because sometimes I will just read through all of them and find something that I can identify with. And sometimes I feel like I can't post them on myspace because of whoever might see and start running their mouths again. Anyways. These are some of my favorites. I know that pain is a part of life, that hurt comes with taking chances. I know that some people won't remember me at all, and that others, I'll be someone they can never forget. In high school I was forgetable, except for the few who were my friends. I was satisfied with that. And in college too, but I don't want to be come just a memory for some people. And I don't want to be easily forgotten either. I am, however, irreplaceable. There isn't anyone in the world quite like me. That's not concieted or self-absorbed; it's just simply the truth. And this quote's very true -- everyone WILL hurt you, but who is worth the pain? It's up to you to decide because only you can decide who is worth it all, who holds that power over you. I think alot about being different, being "weird". As I grow older, I become increasingly aware that being weird is not such a bad thing. And I'm reminded of a quote from the film, Practical Magic ("my darling girl, when are you going to learn that being normal isn't a virtue, it rather denotes a lack of character"). I'm not normal -- I've never claimed to be as such and truthfully when most everyone else my age was going through the "I just want to be like everybody else" stage... I didn't really get into all of that. I was and am comfortable in my own skin. I am the kind of girl who's perfectly happy with a quiet night alone at home. My dad says that I walk to the beat of my own drummer... I hear a different strain of music in my head. I don't have any desire to be "typical." And I'm a.ok. with not being like everybody else.
And I love this one. it's one of my favorites too ever since it circulated via email a few years ago. I think that too many people settle for something less than what they deserve and that we forget sometimes to be patient and that it takes time before our "one" comes along. The best ones are at the top of the tree. I'm hanging out at the top of the tree. I hope that you can read this one. It's one of my favorites because it's very true, at least in most respects for what I want put in a very simplistic way. Anyways. I had fun creating this blog entry. It was neat to try and find different image-quotes that I like. These were taken from http://www.freecodesource.com/.
