Helpful Quotes Which Has Made My Life A Little More Easier

When I am feeling down sometimes I don’t always go to friends or family. I go to my computer and look up quotes that make me feel better. These quotes have gotten me through some rough times in my life. I have saved these for days when I am not myself:

1. Just because you don't look like somebody who you think is attractive doesn't mean you aren't attractive. Flowers are pretty but so are Christmas lights and they look nothing alike."-Unknown

I had/have so many insecurities growing up. Being Latina I never looked like any of my friends. I have dark hair and dark skin, while all of my friends are either blonde or brunet with pretty skin. Growing up all the guys would go for my friends and I thought it was because I looked different from the others. Then I read this quote one day and I realized I am beautiful because I am me.

2. “One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood.”- Seneca

In any relationship you have to communicate with one another.

3. “You can never cross the ocean until you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.” -Christopher Columbus

I have always had trouble with stepping outside of my comfort zone. In order to be the best that you can be you have to make memories and go on crazy adventures.

4. “Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.” – Carl Bard

Sh*t happens and you have to deal with it. You cannot start over. You have to deal with what you did and move forward from the mistakes. In order to do this you have to be the better you.

5. “No one is going to hand me success. I must go out & get it myself. That’s why I’m here. To dominate. To conquer. Both the world, and myself.” – Unknown

You have to go out and do what you want to do.

6. "All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them." --Walt Disney

I always tell myself try something new but I get scared of the future. You have to step up and tell yourself that it is worth the outcome. You have to work hard for what you want to do.

7. “Art and love are the same thing: It’s the process of seeing yourself in things that are not you.” Chuck Klosterman

I have always loved making art. It is the way that I have always expressed myself in ways that I can’t describe to people. Art and love can make you vulnerable.

8. “Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.” Oscar Wilde

You is the best you. Do not try to be someone or something that you are not! Remember you are beautiful and people love you.

9. “Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.” Oscar Wilde

Even though it is hard to love your haters, you gave to forgive them or at least try. As Selena Gomez says “Kill ‘em With Kindness”. Being kind to one another is the best medicine for any relationship.

All of these quotes have a deeper meaning than what they appear. I love reading other people’s thoughts on life. Quotes express peoples inner self.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
