Girl, I know the hall looks dark
& the storm it seems so scary
Your face lit up on beats of lightning
you start, you start running
& your eyes are like screaming
& since there is no end and no beginning
You will run
You will run
You will run

Girl, I know the woods look dark
& the trees they seem so deadly
The girls around you are so frightened
& you start, you start to panic
& the courage starts to vanish
& the world, it really is on fire
& it burns
& it burns
& it burns
& it burns

vivian, your life is told through 19 thousand pages
in a world too unreal to behold
Your innocence has faded
Faded all your blues to gray
Your skin has bruised through moving days
Glue is peeling back away
Curling, cracking, painted

Girl youve been rolled up in colorful carpets
Your blood is rushing, look around you
you're froze, you're frozen quiet
& your eyes, they are widened
Room unfurnished, no light for nightfall
just rugs for rolling you up
you know you can't get up
when you do, you swear you will run
You will run
You will run
You will run

No one will ever save you
If no one can ever find you
No one will ever save you
If no one can ever find you
Lost girls

Listen


You can do anything,
but you can't do everything.

-David Allen
L'amour ne dure pas toujours


Pourquoi t'inquiète mon silence
Crois-moi tu n'as plus de recours
Que prendre ton mal en patience
L'amour ne dure pas toujours

Tu te jouais de moi je pense
Quand je croyais t'aimer d'amour
Aujourd'hui change la balance
L'amour ne dure pas toujours

Tu as été mon espérance
Je t'ai appelé au secours
Tu vins bien tard mais pour ma chance
L'amour ne dure pas toujours

Tu fus aussi ma délivrance
Tout s'est passé en quelques jours
Avant après c'est la souffrance
L'amour ne dure pas toujours

Tu ne fus donc qu'une expérience
On s'est trompé chacun son tour
Mon cœur fatigué prend vacances
L'amour ne dure pas toujours

My dearest friend, if you don't mind
I'd like to join you by your side
Where we can gaze into the stars

JACK AND SALLY
And sit together, now and forever
For it is plain as anyone can see
We're simply meant to be

Don’t go for looks; they can deceive. Don’t go for wealth; even that fades way. Go for someone who makes you smile because it only takes a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile.

"What you sincerely in your heart think of
Christ will determine what you are and will
largely determine what your acts will be."

-David O. McKay

"I promise you that the time you spend in the mission field, if those years are spent in dedicated service, will yield a greater return on investment than any other two years of your lives. You will come to know what dedication and consecration mean. You will develop a spirit of teamwork. The cankering evil of selfishness will be supplanted by a sense of service to others. You will draw nearer to the Lord than you likely will in any other set of circumstances. You will come to know that without His help you are indeed weak and simple, but with His help, you can accomplish miracles.

You will estabish habits of industry. You will develop a talent for the establishment of goals of will effort. You will learn to work with singleness of purpose. What a tremendous foundation all of this will become for you in your later educational effort and your life's work."

-Gordon B. Hinckley.

An Uncomfortable Polka-Dot Dress
























Jason: I knew I had you the day I met you.

Milly: How could you know something like that?

Jason: Because you were so nervous you laughed like a hyena, in that beautiful polka-dot dress of yours.

Milly: Really? I'll tell you one thing though. You did not have me the moment that we met because I'm not even sure I liked the fact that your staff talked about you behind your back at the dessert table. And excuse me, but truth be told, I didn't like anything that you ordered for me on our first date except the calamari. And ok fine, yes, it was nice to not have to think for a change. But who wants someone that doesn't think? Look! And sometimes you laugh when I cry, and you say "huh?" when I make perfect sense. And never ever in my life have I burnt a chocolate suffle until now, and that in and of itself. . . Should have told me I don't feel like myself around you. And I would have decided that. A long time ago if it weren't for my mother. Because who wants someone who laughs like a hyena in a polka dot dress that my mother made me buy.

Jason: I love that dress.

Milly: Take her out.


From Because I Said So.
(My new favorite movie)

Kindness

Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.

Be the living expression of God's kindness:



Kindness in your face,

Kindness in your eyes,

Kindness in your smile.


-Mother Teresa

When you lose someone, you don't lose them all at once.
You lose them in pieces at a time.

-Simon Birch

You're not a helicopter

Quit Hovering.

The Leaving Song

And everytime I think of you
I'll remember all the goodtimes that we've had
And everytime I sing this tune
I will laugh, I will cry, I will close my eyes
Cause I know that it won't be long

Until we sing, we will write
We will laugh away the night
And the good times will never end
When we meet again

And I'm gonna be somewhat lonely
cause you know no one could ever fill your shoes
As iron sharpens iron you have taught me how to be a stronger man
And I look forward to the day I learn again

We will sing, we will write
We will laugh away the night
And I know that it won't be long
Until we meet again

Though I wish that I were with you now
I know there's a reason for a space
I can dream of memories you're writing down
And I look forward to that day
And the smile on your face



We will sing, we will write
We might cry and we might fight
And the good times will never end
We will laugh, we'll relax, we'll reflect on the years we've past
And I know that it won't be long, until we meet again

And everytime I think of you

-Stephen Speaks

Still in Love


Lots of Umbrellas.


All the umbrellas in London,
Couldn't hide my love for you.

Oh! What a world!
Who would have thought
that a good little girl like
you could have melted
my wickedness!

If It Kills Me


Hello, tell me you know
Yeah, you figured me out
Something gave it away
And it would be such a beautiful moment
To see the look on your face
To know that I know that you know now

And baby that's a case of my wishful thinking
You know nothing
Cause you and I
Why, we go carrying on for hours, on and
We get along much better
Than you and your boyfriend

Well all I really wanna do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still can't say it after all we've been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me

Well how long, can I go on like this,
Wishing to kiss you,
Before I rightly explode?
This double life I lead isn't healthy for me
In fact it makes me nervous
If I get caught I could be risking it all

Baby there's a lot that I miss
In case I'm wrong

Well all I really wanna do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still can't say it after all we've been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me

If I should be so bold
I'd ask you to hold my heart in your hand
Tell you from the start how I've longed to be your man
But I never said a word
I guess I'm gonna miss my chance again

All I really wanna do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still can't say it after all we've been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me
If it kills me
I think it might kill me

And all I really want from you is to feel me
It's a feeling inside that keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me
If it kills me
It might kill me

Beyond Repair



Open me up and you will see



I'm a gallery of broken hearts



I'm beyond repair,



Let me be.

Let Me


Let me be a little kinder
Let me be a little blinder
To the faults about me
Let me praise a little more.

Let me be when I am weary
Just a little bit more cheery
Let me serve a little
Those that I am striving for

Let me be a little braver
When temptation bids me waver
Let me strive a little harder
To be all that I should be.

To be a little meeker
To a brother that is weaker
Let me think more of my neighbor
And a little less of me.
