"People aren't just good or bad - people are everything."

"Why do guys play games like this? Seriously. Isn't supposed to be the girls who are so confusing? I'd like to think I don't do this kinda stuff. It's just too annoying, causes hurt feelings and pisses people off. I try and be as straight up about things as I can. Justin L once told me 'Why can't all girls be like you?' lol" - May 7th 2002
"What I feel with Geoff feels right. Why should I let this moment slip away? Why should I let my past keep me held tight in chains, and deny me my chance to be happy? Geoff is in love with me. I know I'm not in love yet.. I'm in strong like, but I know very well I could be love with him given a little time. He treats me with respect and takes care of me. He loves me. He cherishes me. When Shawn treated me like shit, who was always there? Who told me that life was worth living, and to never give up? Who tried to keep me from cutting? Who called to make sure I was okay? Who stayed up all night because he was worried about me? Thats right. It was Geoff. He's proven he cares and will stand by me. Even when I'm at my worst. How can I turn my back away? How can I honestly say he doesn't mean something to me? He does.. he means a lot. I've come to realize I look forward to seeing him. I love spending time with him. When I'm in his arms I feel safe. It's something I've never felt with another guy. Totally safe. Protected. He feels like almost another part of me, a piece I was missing. He says I mean the world to him. I know that's not just a line either. He truely does care. I love the fact he can tell me what he feels... I've always wanted a guy who treated me right. Someone who gave a damn about me. And now I've found him. I can't let him go. I refuse too. He's everything I've ever wanted and more. I can't imagine him ever treating me like Shawn did, and it's a horrible insult to even compare him to Shawn. Shawn was a sick, cocky, bastard. I don't know how I ever put up with him as long as I did. *I vow to never stay in a relationship that bad ever again.* I despise him so much for what he did to me, what he put me through. Geoff would never do that. Ever. He has more class and way more heart then Shawn. He puts me first, before anything else. Has anyone done that for me lately? Put me ahead of their own wants and needs? He is incredibly sweet... I also said before I didn't want to ruin what we have. I honestly think it can only get better. I know that nobody can predict what can happen in a relationship but Geoff and I share common goals and values. We want a future together. We both know how to make sacrifices. If we choose not to take things to the next level, things will still be hard and I know they won't be the same. I think it's worth a shot. I also was afraid since I'm a flirt, I might piss Geoff off and stuff... well I have to break that habit anyway. I'll have to get serious about somebody at some point in my life." - May 10th 2002
"My head has been telling me to run away, to avoid pain. But it's time I listened to my heart. Now that I've come to peace with what happened, I now understand that the experience taught me something. Shawn showed me what I need from a relationship, and taught me to recognize my boundaries. Whatever happened with Shawn is now behind me, in the past where it should be. As much as I sometimes wish I could erase what happened, I know I never would. It brought me to the people, the life, and the person I am today. I feel wiser and stronger then before. The experience only made me a more defined, and unique person. I can dwell on the bad things that happened, or I can build on the good things. It's up to me to choose which path to follow. I can bury myself in the twisted dark turns of life, or I can use the bright times to shine the way. Why not go with the feelings that bring a smile to my face, and a warmness in my heart? Strong feelings like this cannot go ignored. I refuse to let my past experiences rob me of the happiness of the future. "- May 11th 2002
"I find it kinda funny that in life, one single moment, one single memory, can have the power to change everything that comes after it. Imagine if we didn't remember things... I wonder how many times we would make the same mistakes over? One moment with Geoff... and I can't forget him. Moments are kinda... dangerous. I dunno. Something's, no matter how hard I want them to erase, I can't. Like Shawn hurting me, thats pretty much gone now. I can talk to him now like normal, even though I still don't approve of what he did to me. But certain moments I'll never forget. Like holding Naveed that one night when his mom threw a fit and he held me while we cried..." - May 13th 2002
"I guess it made me think about how important you are
to me and how I needed to tell you that... I mean if I died yesterday, you'd have never known.. I keep noticing how fragile life is. I mean, my dad was in a car accident on thursday, my old neighbour died may 17th and my grandma has officailly taken a turn for the worst.. but I have to keep living and being positive and letting people know how much I care.. because I'll never know what tomorrow brings and I might never have another day..." - May 22nd 2002 (To Naveed over msn)
"I’ve learned not to regret things, that everything you experience becomes part of who you are, and if you change something in your past your not you anymore, your someone else." - June 1st 2002
"Kyle Sanders and I are officially friends now. It’s so weird. I think he just grew tired of pissing me off or something. It’s odd not fighting with him every other day. I actually trust him a lot now. I knew somewhere deep down a long time ago that if we weren’t constantly at each other’s throats we’d probably be good friends and now we are." - June 4th 2002
"I’m the straight up kind of girl. I say what I feel when I feel it, if the moment is right, and the feeling is right. Like maybe 2 weeks ago when I told Naveed I still loved him. I just came out and said what I felt. I was with Geoff at the time but we won’t get into that… I guess that’s not straight up with Geoff but I think anyone who knows me and Naveed can tell we’ll always have special ties to each other." - June 5th 2002
I know this isn't a quote, but I don't know... it just sort of fit in here somehow....
"Start time: 9:41 pm June 14th 2002
I want to die. I’m shaking… I can barely breathe. Tears are streaming down my face. I feel empty inside.
Why can’t I just let go? Of everything. Nothing matters. No one cares. There is nothing left to live for. I can’t even see straight anymore… tears are everywhere and my nose is so plugged up the pressure is hurting me. Pressure is being applied everywhere. I can’t handle it. God I wish I had an escape from this.
I tried to cut myself again. I had the knife there in my hands. If I had of had 5 more minutes I would have done it. It would have been over. 2 months down the drain. Would you believe Kyle called right at the moment I was gonna cut myself? I lost it and just cried and cried and cried. I was hysterical.
I want to die. I don’t want to live this life anymore. Where are the people who are supposed to care? My own mother walked in when I was crying on the phone with Kyle about 10 mins ago and demanded me to get off the phone. Couldn’t she tell I was crying, in pain? Nobody notices. Kyle and Ryan do since I’ve told them… I must be a good actress. People don’t notice I’m at the end of my rope.
I was forced into going to Moore’s with my mom and Scott tonight. Naveed walked in. My heart stopped. Then I remembered our mothers were both there and it was another clear reminder of what I couldn’t have. God it hurt so much. I miss him so much. I wish I hadn’t of given up. I’m a failure. I just wanted to do what was best for him. God I’m breaking down right now. I only wanted him to be okay. I wanted him to be happy. This hurts me so much though. Every time I see him. It doesn’t ever stop. I can’t take it. I want out. I want to go to another school next year. I want to move away. I want out of here. Out of this life. I want to be alone forever. I never wanna see day light again. I want to just stay here in my dark room and never come out… I want to just sit here and cry and watch blood pour everywhere. I want to slash and tear apart everything that is me.
I hate myself. I hate everything that I am.
End time: 10:01 pm June 14th 2002"
"I feel empty. On the outside I appear fine, unchanged, happy. I’m hollow on the inside. I feel like crying a lot lately. The depression is coming back, and full force. I feel like I don’t have anything to hold onto. I’m slowly sinking and other then Kyle, nobody is quite there to catch me." - June 18th 2002
"For some reason today I had this terrible feeling in the back of my mind that Geoff was gonna leave me. I can’t explain it but it’s probably nothing. I think this happens just about every time I get serious about someone. I go through this phase where I’m afraid to let myself go or I’ll be hurt. I usually don’t stay like this for long. I realize that life is all about getting hurt." - June 21st 2002
"I can’t really imagine right now getting married. Giving your life to someone else. Only one other person. That’s such an amazing thing. I guess while I figure I know a lot about relationships, I really don’t. Maybe that’s what I’m lacking with Geoff. Not being serious with him and focusing on him and only him. That just seems like such a dangerous way to live your life. But I guess life’s best rewards come when you do something in the spirit of love." - June 22nd 2002
"Strangely I wanted to be with Naveed forever. I really do love him. No matter what I know nothing can change that. I don’t ever see myself with Shawn again. He ruined whatever feelings I had for him forever. I classify these guys as my 'real' boyfriends.
I guess since Naveed, I haven’t really been 100% into any of my relationships. I don’t give them the same respect, attention or dedication as I once did. I’m not sure why that trend is. I don’t put in as much... I don’t know why boyfriends take a backseat in my life to everything else since Naveed. I guess it’s just because I gave so much in that relationship I loved him so much, and it turned out all for nothing. If my boyfriends don’t occupy my thoughts, dreams, or heart I cannot be crushed.
With Naveed I thought about him constantly. I wanted to be with him, I wanted to hold him, I wanted the best out of life for him and I wanted to share every bit of happiness with him. I never wanted to see him sad or unhappy and I wanted to protect him from all evil. I still want all those things, even now.
Why isn’t it like that with Geoff? Why isn’t it like that with anyone? I’ve never felt that way again about anyone else. Sure I’ve had good moments with others, but it’s never been the same feeling. Even at my lowest points Naveed always had the power to lift me up again. He could make the sun shine through the darkest weather and one thing I notice looking back on things is I was never sad with him. Until the very, very end when I couldn’t stand for him to be in pain he always made me feel great. We had some amazing times together which I will never forget.
Why did I have to give up? Why didn’t I fight for him more? I can’t believe I just gave up like that. Aren’t you supposed to fight for the one you love? I just didn’t want us to live in pain. Naveed was and arguably still is, the person I care/d about most in my life. I couldn’t let him live like that, not with his mother’s hatred, not with considering giving up his religion.
This always eats away at my heart. It never goes away. I’ll never get over it. I can’t. I can’t forget him. He is a part of me. I’d die for him.
Love hurts. Wasn’t it supposed to conquer over all?" - June ? 2002
"If you need to make a chart to remind you about the reasons your with your guy, your relationship is in trouble. " - June 27th 2002
"Well I decided later that maybe we do need hate. The only reason I believe this is because we need to feel hate in order to appreciate the beauty of love. If we never had someone to hurt us, we would never understand how precious it is to be cared for by another."- June 29th 2002
"They all fight because they are different. Why can’t they just learn about the other and realize our differences are what make us special." July 1st 2002
"I want to make a positive difference in the world. I want to leave it better then it was when I entered. Even if it’s only something small. I want people to cry at my funeral. I don’t want someone to stand up there and have nothing to say about me. I want them to be able to say I was a good daughter, a loving sister, a caring person, that I was someone you could always count on, a person who made people happy and a person who did something good in their life." - July 1st 2002
"It just goes to show you that most of today’s teenage idols aren’t really what teens idolize. They don’t seem to have much substance or love for people and life." - July 2nd 2002
"I think the reason we hate each other is because the things we hate in the other person are also the things we don’t like about ourselves." - July 3rd 2002
"I’ve been thinking a lot about fixing things with Shawn. I think I’ve decided against it. Broken relationships are like broken glass. Sometimes it’s better to just leave the pieces broken then to risk hurting yourself picking up the pieces." - July 3rd 2002
"Okay the plan is study like a worm the next 2 days." - July 3rd 2002 (WTF study like a worm? O.o)
"I feel calm right now. Even happy. I feel like I can take on almost any challenge. I feel strong even. I can do anything… Is it the love that Geoff and I have growing that makes me feel like this? Isn’t it funny… love can burn so deeply and yet heal and bring happiness? Maybe it isn’t love that burns… love shouldn’t hurt. Maybe it’s just hurt feelings… Maybe when love starts to hurt, maybe that’s when you’ve given up on it. Think about it. You feel hurt by the one you love, you figure things will never get better and you give up on them, thinking it’s over. Your feelings of love for the person feel crushed and your broken hearted. So maybe love only hurts when you lose hope. 'Love takes no pleasure in other people’s sins but delights in the truth; it is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes.'
So love is supposed to hope and if you give up then your not enduring whatever comes. So if you’re not letting love do what it’s supposed to do maybe then that is when it will hurt you. I think I’ve developed an interesting theory. Incase you haven’t already noticed the concept of love clearly boggles my mind. Even though I believe I had love with Naveed, it still is confusing for me to understand. Maybe your just not supposed to and that’s what’s so amazing. Truly in theory it makes no sense. Why give yourself to anyone? But as humans we need each other to live. So I guess it becomes mandatory for us to give at least part of ourselves to someone during our lifetime. But the concept of giving yourself to someone forever is just mind blowing. How could you possibly let all your secret fears go and just trust someone with yourself forever? I think that’s why we don’t understand love. It’s rare, hard to do, and most of us would just never feel comfortable letting another have power to our emotions like that. It’s human nature to protect ourselves, so why give another person one of our most valuable organs, our heart? Not to mention the time, the effort, the control over our emotions… I think love is a lot like raindrops. I often wonder what it would be like to fall freely from the sky, not caring where your land, because you know that the earth will always catch you. I guess were all just a bunch of raindrops, waiting in the clouds until the right moment comes to fall freely from the clouds down towards the earth.
I heard this saying once, something like you need to know and love yourself before another person can love you, and then you will be able to love them back. I feel like I’m learning a lot about who I am lately. I don’t love everything about me but I’m learning that I am who I am, and I should be thankful every day that I am alive. I’m not living day to day anymore. I’m actually looking ahead now to the future with hope and anticipation. I think I’m happy with who I have become. There was a reason I was sent to HOBY. Somebody thinks I’m special or I wouldn’t have gone. I’m happy with who I am and now that I love myself I can do anything." - July 4th 2002
"Man do I ever wish sometimes I could just fly away. I wish I could sit at the edge of some peaceful mountain rock surrounded by flowers and just look out over the sea as the sky is setting. The beauty of that scene… everything else just falls away. People, pain, problems, fears… it all just fades in the absolute beauty of the earth itself." - July 5th 2002
"It's like I've sudden realized life isn't some fairy tale and things don't always work out for the better... just because everything’s supposed to end in 'happily ever after', doesn't mean it actually does." - December 1st to Justin Leroux

Strange is our situation here upon earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to a divine purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: That we are here for the sake of others...for the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by a bond of sympathy. Many times a day, I realize how much my outer and inner life is built upon the labors of people, both living and dead, and how earnestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received. ~ Albert Einstein

It’s the emotion of tears, of laughter, and of us. It’s the emotion of knowing that someone is always there for you. Love is a struggle, a war trying to rip us apart, but bringing us closer.

"The course of true love never did run smooth." - William Shakespeare
“'You'll get over it.' It's the clichés that cause the trouble. To lose someone you love is to alter your life forever. You don't 'get over it' because 'it' is the person you loved. The pain stops, there are new people, but the gap never closes. How could it? The memory of someone who mattered enough to grieve over is not stopped by anything but death. The hole in my heart is in the shape of you, and no one else can fit it. Why would I want them to?” - Unknown

“Forever isn't long enough when I'm with you.” - Unknown

"Love is like an earthquake – unpredictable and a little scary, but when the hard part is over, you realize how lucky you are" - Unknown
“I wish I could stop time and live in this moment forever so that I would never lose sight of your face, the comfort of your touch, or the taste of your kiss. The time goes by so fast when I'm with you; hours seem like seconds…I just want to freeze time and be with you.” - Unknown
“You look at the things you love, and once you realize that you’re going to loose them, you sit and think of all of those memories you had...the times you played and just sat there...hoping that those very moment will last forever. But then you finally see that things will never be, so you wait and try not to realize the one thing that you can't dare to dream...loosing that special thing that meant so much...leaving you with tears that form a stream down your lonely cheek...but the one thing you can have with you forever are those sweet memories you shared together.” - Unknown
“To let go is not to deny, but to accept. To let go is not to regret the past, but to grow and to live for the future. To let go is to fear less and to love more.” - Unknown
“As long as we have memories, yesterday remains. As long as we have hope, tomorrow awaits. And as long as we have love, today is beautiful.” - Unknown
“The answers to life’s questions lie inside of you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust.” - Unknown
"In spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart." ~ Anne Frank
"Spread love everywhere you go: First of all in your own house... let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness; kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile, kindness in your warm greeting." ~ Mother Theresa
“One of the hardest things in life is having words in your heart that you can't speak.” - Unknown
“The spaces between our fingers were made so another person’s fingers could fill them.” - Unknown
“Trying to forget someone you loved is like trying to remember someone you never knew.” - Unknown
I live in a country that is full of optimism. I wake up each morning eager to start a new day and see what will happen. When I think of those hijackers, I think of people who had it so bad that they wanted to kill themselves, that death was a better option than any life they were living. I can't imagine feeling that way. - Marcellas (Big Brother 2)
“You were always there when I needed you, and you never left my side. You were always there to lean on, and to dry the tears I cried. I could always talk to you; you never seemed to mind. Your words were so honest and always seemed so kind. I thought I'd never meet someone as special as you…you’re the best kind of friend in the whole wide world. You’re my shooting star.” - Unknown
“When I see him…his smile, his frown, those eyes…just everything about him…I end up liking him just as much as I did before I stopped. I guess once you love someone and admit it, there's no turning back. It’s a line that will forever stay embedded deep within your heart because once you have loved that someone, it doesn't go away…you're forced to care.” - Unknown
“How do I say goodbye to someone I never had? Why do tears fall for someone who was never mine? Why is it that I miss someone I was never with?” - Unknown
“I'll have another chance, I'll find another guy, I'll see another day, and I'll build another world. I'll find another life just like you told me to. I'll find another love, but there will never be another you.” - Unknown
"The magic of a first love is the ignorance that it can never end." - Unknown
"When we lose one we love, our bitterest tears are called forth by the memory of hours when we loved not enough.” - Unknown
“A best friend is the other half of your soul.” - Unknown
“Unfortunately, sometimes life takes twists and turns and things that you hope will remain the same forever do not. Lives that somehow cross paths are not necessarily meant to run parallel for eternity; things change, people change, times change. I used to view change as a threat to my very existence...something to lament, something that would cause me to forever look longingly back over my shoulder to the way things used to be. Not anymore; change is necessary for growth and expansion of the heart and mind.” - Unknown
“To be honest with you, I don’t have the words to make you feel better, but I do have the arms to hug you, the ears to listen to whatever you want to talk about, and a heart that is aching to see you smile again.” - Unknown
"Every time I look back, our friendship has been one of the best parts of my yesterdays, and every time I look ahead, I see our friendship as the one thing I can always count on to get me through tomorrow." - Unknown
“Even though I've stopped ‘liking you,' every time someone mentions your name, my head turns right toward them. It’s like every time I hear it, I think of all that we could have had and all that could have happened that didn't.” - Unknown
“I love you because I know you're always there...there to catch me when I fall, there to listen when I need you, there when I feel alone. I love you because you understand me...you know how I feel even when I can't say it, you know I'm not as strong as I say and still you never let me know that I'm not fooling you. I love you because you make me believe, believe that I am not worthless...believe that I can be loved, am loved, and can love others. I love you because you know, you know I feel this way but can't say it, and still you wait, letting me take my time to come to terms with the fact that I love you...would give my life up to be with you...and above all, never hurt you...lie to you...or leave you. Now I hope you understand.” - Unknown
“The turning point in the process of growing up is when you discover the core strength within you that survives all hurt.” - Unknown
"Life wasn't meant to be easy; love hurts, things change, we win, we lose, we’re happy, and we’re sad, but life DOES go on." - Unknown
“Tears are words the heart can’t say.” - Unknown
“Everything changes eventually - that's just the way life is and you have no control over it. Like how suddenly people who you think are always going to be there disappear...” - Unknown
“Isn't it funny how time seems to slip away so fast. One minute you’re happy, the next you’re sad. But if you give me one more chance to show that my love for you is true, I'll stand by your side your whole life through. If life is so short, why won't you let me love you before we run out of time? If love is so strong, why won't you take a chance before our time has gone?” - Unknown
“Sometimes new love comes between old friends. Sometimes the best love was the one that was always there.” – Unknown
“Don’t be afraid of showing your feelings…be afraid of regretting the times you didn't.” – Unknown
“No matter what was in the past and what was left behind, I will always keep you in my heart, forever in my mind. Though I may not tell you, I still wish you were mine.” – Unknown
"The tough thing about following your heart is that people forget to mention that sometimes the heart takes you to places you shouldn't be - places that are as scary as they are exciting and as dangerous as they are alluring. Sometimes your heart cannot take you to places that lead to happy endings. That's not even the difficult part; the difficult part is that when you follow your heart, you leave normal; you go into the unknown and once you do you can never go back." – From the TV show Roswell
“If you love someone, tell them, because hearts are often broken by words left unspoken...” - Unknown
“My wish is not to mean everything to everyone, but to mean something to someone...” - Unknown
“The best way to love is like a child; pure, innocent, and without hesitation.” - Unknown
“Friends are like rainbows; they brighten your life when you've been through a storm.” - Unknown
“Y’know,you remind me of a poem I can’t remember, and a song that may never have existed, and a place I’m not sure I’ve ever been to.” - Grandpa Simpson

For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him who is alone when
he falls and has not another to lift him up. Again, if two lie together,
they are warm; but how can one be warm alone? And though a man
might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered,
It keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects always trusts, always hopes, always preserves.
