There is no place in the world but contains some trace of God.
Maybe we all just wanted someone to believe in. That's all each of us wanted, and it should be so simple, but it never was simple.
When what you want is a relationship, and not a person, get a dog.
It's good to let God pick a man for you. We don't do so well when we pick them ourselves. They end up lipsticks in a drawer, all those wrong colors you thought looked so good in the package.
I guess forgiveness, like happiness, isn’t a final destination. You don’t one day get there and get to stay.
You can hold a secret, hold it so far in that it drives nearly every thought and every move you make- your very heartbeat, almost.
Just because it turned out bad, doesn’t mean it wasn’t meant.
I learned that you can't truly own anything, that true ownership comes only in the moment of giving.
