'Some bring happiness wherever they go. Others, whenever they go.'

Behold, there went out a sower to sow: And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up. And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth: But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away. And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit. And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some a hundred. And he said unto them, He that has ears to hear, let him hear.

And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable. And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables: That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them. And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables? The sower soweth the word. And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts. And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness; And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended. And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word, and the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful. And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.

- Jesus Christ

Mark 4: 1-20

Here's a quote that I made for a short story I wrote:

“Every puzzle piece has a side that hides away its beauty. When that happens, it ruins the picture because there’s no way to fit back in. But if every other puzzle piece were to turn to its back as well, then the picture is complete again.” - Reggi

My favorite quotes are probably..

When there's something you really want, fight for it. Don't give up, no matter how hopeless it seems. & when you've lost hope, ask yourself if 10 years from now, you're going to wish you gave it one more shot because the best things in life, they don't come easy. - Dawson's Creek

I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you can appreciate them when they're right. You believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself. & sometimes, good things fall apart so that better things can fall together. - Marilyn Monroe

- Memoirs of a Geisha

'And it seemed so hard to believe that these people who were close to me couldn't see how desperate I was, or if they did they didn't care enough to do anything about it, or if they cared enough to do anything about it they didn't believe there was anything they could do, not knowing- or not wanting to know- that their belief could have been the thing that made all the difference.'
- Elizabeth Wurtzel, Prozac Nation

'So this is my life. And I want you to know that I am both happy and sad and I'm still trying to figure out how that could be.'
