15 Shonda Rhimes Quotes To Start 2019 Like A Girl Boss
Guilty as charged.

I am probably one the the world's most obsessive quote lover. But hey, at least I own up to it! I mean, after all, they are pretty great. Through breakups, pre-midlife crisis and everything in between, there will always be a quote that makes the situation a little better. These quotes are no different. They encourage me to take action and believe in my power. They make me want to become the girl boss I have always dreamed of being.

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.
