"Dreams are built around the word hello, but in the end fate only knows the word goodbye."

Dreams

"A true love story has always been about the journey, not the ending."

Love

"The only man worth having in your life is one that would never let you walk away."

Love

"There are no guarantees with finally being honest and coming clean with people. Sometimes you don't win love back. Sometimes you lose the love you had. Sometimes you crush people that cared. Sometimes you break apart families. Sometimes you lose your career. Sometimes you lose your way of life. Sometimes you end up worse off than you were before. However, you walk away with a heart free from lies, regret and you have closure. Within time, you find yourself in a life that is far from the prison you once lived in. This type of freedom is the scariest road you will ever travel. However, it is the road God will never let you travel alone."

Honesty

"There are always a million words behind the silence."

Life

"Fearlessness is not what you do to win, but what you don't do. When you love yourself as much as your God, you won't see other people as the source of your pain. Rather, you will see who you have become because you honestly believed that your chains would be broken through hatred, instead of kindness."

Self

"When religious people take the stance that they don't owe anyone that is hurting closure or answers then God is not winning. Conflict continues because of lack of communication, fear and indifference."
