carpe diem always pray to have eyes that see the best in people, a heart that forgives the worst, a mind that forgives the bad, and a soul that never loses faith in God. "Do not think that love in order to be genuine has to be extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired. Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies." - Mother Teresa

I need love that I do not deserve, grace that I have not earned, and forgiveness that I have not sought. I need it and I need it and I need it till the end.

If you love deeply, you’re going to get hurt badly. But it’s still worth it.

She had a way of seeing the beauty in others, even, and perhaps most especially, when that person couldn’t see it in themselves.

What people don’t understand is that people who have depression or who are suicidal aren’t being selfish. It’s just that when you’re feeling that down, it’s like you have tunnel vision and it makes it hard to see that people love you and that there’s a way out.

Being alive is a victory to me. Every breath is like giving birth to a miracle. If we knew that, like we really treated each other as if we’re so excited we made it, we might celebrate a little more. “You’re here. I’m so glad you’re here.” Every day a birthday.

You can’t wait until the “ideal” circumstance or time. Sometimes, you have to go for it. Stop waiting. It’s unlikely the perfect conditions you want will ever came. You have to go after what is put in your heart to do. You have this life now to live. You can accomplish a lot -regardless of what isn’t the way you’d wish- you are able and depending on things outside your control won’t get you anywhere. You take steps. You move forward. You, go and get after life. Seize the day. Today.

I love you and I want to hear you and I believe the best about you. I want to start there and end there, rooting for you the whole way.

On days like today, when I doubt God and doubt myself, I have to remember there were many days like this before and I got through them. He was there.

the caption I wanted to put was “you + me 👊🏼” and while that is perfectly valid and true, it seems very surface level for the circumstances. life has been pretty hard lately, and we’ve had some really difficult but gooood conversations. And admitting that this season is hard and is going to continue being difficult and exhausting and heavy, has seemed to help. It is only a season. These rings mean more now than they ever have. These days, they mean “I’ve got your back” and “we’re in this together, no matter how crappy the situation” and “I will stay up late fighting and talking and working through this with you if that’s what we need to do”. and I am thankful for that today. #ogwayfam

Love is not an affectionate feeling, but a steady wish for the loved person’s ultimate good as far as it can be obtained.

No relationship is perfect, ever. There are always some ways you have to bend, to compromise, to give something up in order to gain something greater…The love we have for each other is bigger than these small differences. And that’s the key. It’s like a big pie chart, and the love in a relationship has to be the biggest piece. Love can make up for a lot.
