Sweet Silver Lining

This song is from an episode of One Tree Hill and I listened to it today, and really loved the lyrics, and I feel like this puts into words how I am feeling, better than I can right now.

I'm going home
Downhearted and hoping
I'm close to some new beginning
I know
There's a reason for everything
That comes and goes

But so many people are looking to me
To be strong and to fight
But I'm just surviving
I may be weak but Im never defeated
And I'll keep believing
In clouds with that sweet silver lining

Most days
I try my best to put on a brave face
But inside
My bones are cold and my heart breaks
But all the while
Somethings keeping me safe
And alive

But so many people are looking to me
To be strong and to fight
But I'm just surviving
I may be weak but Im never defeated
And I'll keep believing
In clouds with that sweet silver lining

I wont give up like this
I will be given strength
And now that I've found it
Nothing can take that away

Smiling through the tears

These are just a few quotes that I have stumbled upon the last few weeks or so. Alot of them them apply or have applied to my life in one way or another.

"Promises mean everything, but once they are broken, sorry means nothing."
"I may seem tough on the outside, but I'm broken on the inside."
"I'm falling for you and I'm so scared that I am going to get my heart broken again."
"I'm stronger now....I'm no longer the girl who laid her heart(broken & bleeding) at your feet. And there are more-many more-important things in my life now than a man."
"It's easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend."
"It's amazing how one group of people can change your life forever."
"I want to be remembered as the girl who always smiles even when her heart is broken. And that could brighten your day even if she couldn't brighten her own."
"Smiles and tears. Giggles and laughs. Late night calls and photographs. I'll be there for you until the day of my death. Best friends forever until my very last breath."
"Our true friends are those who are with us when the good things happen. They cheer us on and are pleased by our triumphs. False friends only appear at difficult times, with their sad, supportive faces, when, in fact, our suffering is serving to console them from their miserable lives."
"I'm a lover, not a fighter. But I will fight for what I love."
"I've learned that good-byes will always hurt. Pictures will never replace having been there. Memories, good or bad, will bring tears. And words can never replace those feelings."
"Choice, not chance, determines destiny."
"I would much rather have regrets about not doing what people said, than regretting not doing what my heart led me to and wandering what life had been like if I had just been myself."
"Laugh your heart out. Dance in the rain, cherish the moment, ignore the pain. Live, laugh, love. Forgive & forget. Life's too short to be living with regrets."
"Do what makes you happy. Be with who makes you smile. Laugh as much as you breathe. Love as long as you live."
"The hardest thing in life is to know which bridge to cross and which to burn."
"Stand for what you believe in....even if it means you're standing alone."
"Life is short....forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably, and never regret anything that made you smile."
"God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."
"If looking back hurts you and looking forward scares you, then look beside you and I will always be here for you."
"Never say goodbye. Because goodbye means going away, and going away means forgetting."
"A good friend helps you up when you fall. A best friend laughs at you and trips you again."
"One of the toughest parts of life is deciding when to give up and when to try harder."
"Stop looking back with regrets. Stop looking forward with fear. And just live for today, cause it just might be your last."
"The truth is....everyone is going to hurt you. You just have to decide....who's worth the pain?"
"Sometimes you can only forgive someone because you can't stand not having them in your life."
"Embrace those who love you, and who you love, and rid yourself of those who will only bring you down."
"Don't let the sadness of your past & the fear of your future ruin the happiness of your present."
"I always knew that looking back on the tears would make me laugh, but I never knew looking back at the laughs would make me cry."
"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 learn to appreciate things when they are right and sometimes good things in life fall apart so better things can fall together."

Hope these find meaning to someone, about something in their life!
