beautiful self-esteem world
for once, you believed in yourself. you believed you were beautiful and so did the rest of the world.
believe eye waiting
I don't believe in failure, because simply by saying you've failed, you've admitted you attempted. And anyone who attempts is not a failure. Those who truly fail in my eyes are the ones who never try at all. The ones who sit on the couch and whine and moan and wait for the world to change for them.
book thinking benefits
I think as a writer one of the benefits is that you can put things that you're interested in into your books. I always have put a lot of food and restaurants because I was a waitress and I love to eat.
grief anchors bereavement
Grief can be a burden, but also an anchor. You get used to the weight, how it holds you in place.
girl baby warrior
The truth was I knew, after all those flat January days, that I deserved better. I deserved I love yous and kiwi fruits and warriors coming to my door, besotted with love. I deserved pictures of my face in a thousand expressions, and the warmth of a baby's kick beneath my hand. I deserved to grow, and to change, to become all the girls I could be over the course of my life, each one better than the last.
inspirational motivational heart
The best gifts come from the heart, not the store.
daughter school proud
I was actually kind of a hot mess in high school. I did a lot of things in high school I'm not proud of. I wasn't a good student and I wasn't particularly a good daughter. I wasn't very engaged.
waiting over-you saving
This is the problem with dealing with someone who is actually a good listener. They don’t jump in on your sentences, saving you from actually finishing them, or talk over you, allowing what you do manage to get out to be lost or altered in transit. Instead, they wait, so you have to keep going.
people weak accepting
It's okay to accept things from people. It doesn't make you weak or helpless.
world one-word whole-world
one word could change the whole world
thinking pages enjoy
I think whenever a writer is really enjoying themselves and liking what they are doing, that shows on the page.
relationship mom children
But in the real world, you couldnt really just split a family down the middle, mom on one side, dad the other, with the child equally divided between. It was like when you ripped a piece of paper into two: no matter how you tried, the seams never fit exactly right again. It was what you couldn't see, those tiniest of pieces, that were lost in the severing, and their absence kept everything from being complete.
forever promise true-friendship
True friendship is a promise you keep forever.
leaving easy hard
Leaving was easy. It was everything else that was so damned hard.
