Title: Someone once told me
Post by: KrisRenee on January 17, 2011, 12:24:44 AM
Someone once told me that traveling back and forth over a weak bridge will make it collapse.  It's like being one way with your friends and another with your family.  It's like being a girl for your family and your church family, but being a boy to actually be happy.  Sometimes i feel more and more like adam from Degrassi.  but lately i'd just settle for a chance to be myself.

this was more of a blog than anything.  But, to share, let us all post our favorite inspirational quote or analogy.
Ready, go.

Super cliche, but "Don't dream it, be it."

... Alright, fine. There's one that I made, too - "It's hard to be what you aren't. It's harder to be what you are."
The implication being that it isn't easy to be brave, to stand out, but that it's ultimately worthwhile.

i'll upgrade that a little. "be yourself, an original is always worth more than a copy."

It's kind of funny, when i think of the quote that i have.

"If things don't work the way it's supposed to, re-engineer it into something that you desire it to be like."

Logic only gives man what he needs. Magic gives him what he wants.

That seems fitting somehow to understanding life.
