Every now and then it is nice to stop and come to terms with our lives. However busy they might be, it's always good to stop and recollect on the good things that have come your way. One way of doing this, is to inspire ourselves, so we can have a bright outlook on life. Now here's another list of motivational quotes to get you through the day.

1. “Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.” - Dr. Seuss

Never let anyone control what you think or say.

2. "Don't mistake my silence for ignorance, my calmness for acceptance, or my kindness for weakness." - Unknown Author

Just because someone is passive, doesn't give you the right to treat them as such.

3. "Life's too mysterious to take too serious." -Mary Engelbreit

Everyday is an adventure! With new doors to be opened, that will take up to unknown possibilities.

4. "It's OK to not be OK, as long as you don't stay that way." -Anonymous

Being OK is OK.

5. "Nothing in life is to be feared; it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more so that we may fear less." -Marie Curie

Knowledge is our greatest weapon. And it is only when we use this power, will our lives be improved.

6. “You don’t just give up. You don’t just let things happen. You make a stand! You say no! You have the guts to do what’s right, even when everyone else just runs away." - Rose Tyler (Doctor Who)

NEVER GIVE UP!!!

7. "If I am the main character of my own story, you're going to have some chapters that are rough weather and that’s great because it makes for a great story, you just have to know that your going to come out better on the other side of that storm… Whatever it may be, and your gonna come out of it wiser than when you started." - Thomas Sanders

Many of us face challenges in our everyday lives that we contemplate if it's really worth the effort. School, relationships, articles.... are some of those decisions we must make. But no matter what happens, just remember that whatever the outcome, life will move on and you will become stronger.

8. T: "What do you all do to relax after a rough day?" P: "Eat a cookie. And if I'm feeling dangerous... eat a second cookie." -Patton (Sander Sides)

With all the work and effort you have put in this last week, don't forget to reward yourself with a sweet treat! (Or maybe two cookies?)

9. "The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart." - Helen Keller

Empathy goes a long way.

10. "What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside of you." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

It's whats on the inside that counts.

11. It does not matter how many times you get knocked down, but how many times you get up. -Vince Lombardi

If you don't succeed, then try until your legs gets tired. And then try some more after a nice break.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
