“At this moment, there are six billion, 470 million, 818 thousand, 671 people in the world.
Some, are running scared, some are coming home. Some tell lies, just to make it through the day, others are now just facing the truth. Some are evil men, at war with good. And some are good, struggling with evil. Six billion people in the world. Six billion souls. And sometimes, all you need, is one.”
“There comes a time where every life goes off course. In this desperate moment, you must choose your directioning. Will you fight to stay on the path while others tell you who you are? Or will you label yourself? Will you be honoured by your choice? Or will you embrace your new path? Each morning, you choose to move forward or to simply give up.”
Lucas Scott on Brooke Davis:
“She was fiercely independent. Brilliant and beautiful, and brave. In two years, she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. She is going to change the world someday. I’m not sure she even knows it.”
What matters the most? Is it about the things we create? The things we achieve? The awards we win? Is it about who we are when we fail? What’s more important – what we become, or how we become it?
E.E. Cummings once wrote:
“Be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best night and day to make you somebody else. It means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight and never stop fighting.”
Happiness comes in many forms – in the company of good friends, in the feeling you get when you make someone else’s dream come true, or in the promise of hope renewed.
Sometimes, you have to step outside of the person you’ve been. And remember the person you were meant to be. The person you wanted to be. The person you are.
Stepping up. It’s a simple concept. It basically means to rise above yourself, to do a little more, to show you something special. Sometimes, when you’re young, you think nothing can hurt you. It’s like being invincible. Your whole life is ahead of you, and you have big plans. To find your perfect match. The one that completes you.
Mistakes are painful when they happen, but years later, a collection of mistakes called experience, leads us to SUCCESS.
