Angelique Bouchard: I’m going to make an offer to you, Barnabas. My last. You can join me by my side and we can run Collinsport together as partners, and lovers… or I’ll put you back in the box.
Barnabas Collins: I have already prepared my counter-proposal. It reads thusly: You may strategically place your wonderful lips upon my posterior and kiss it repeatedly!

I do my thing and you do your thing. I am not in this world to live up to your expectations, and you are not in this world to live up to mine. You are you, and I am I, and if by chance we find each other, it’s beautiful. If not, it can’t be helped
We all change, and that’s okay. – Our needs change with time. When someone says, “You’ve changed,” it’s not always a bad thing. Sometimes itjust means you stopped living your life their way. Don’t apologize for it. Instead, be open and sincere, explain how you feel, and keep doing what you know in your heart is right. <3
Don’t berate others for not being perfect. Admire them for not being fake. Even though you probably sometimes get confused, you don’t really want your friends and lovers to be perfect. What you do want is people you can trust, who treat you right – people you can act silly with, who love being around you as much as you love being around them.
just got a haircut… bummer! i wanted curled locks but #Clerkship won’t allow me that vanity. Oh well. ><
”There’s not a second that goes by when I’m not thinking of you in some way. I want to see your face. Feel your hands in mine. Feel you against me. But I know that will never be. You left me, and I can’t get you back… I move like I imagine the damned do, cursed. I feel like it’s only a matter of time… I don’t know why I’m writing this, I don’t know what can come of it. I know I can’t get you back. I don’t know why this has happened to us. I feel like it’s me. Bad luck. Poison. I’ve stopped doing this world any real good.” - Ottway’s Suicide Letter, The Grey.
When one is surrounded by love, the feeling of excitement fades away, and one tends to ignore the true love that lies in between the peace and dullness.
Love shows up in all forms, even very small and cheeky forms, it has never been a model, it could be the most dull and boring form……flowers, and romantic moments are only used and appear on the surface of the relationship.
Under all this, the pillar of true love stands……and that’s our life. Love, not words win arguments…
Sometimes we expect far too much of the people around us, and because no one can ever live up to those expectations, we are almost always disappointed.
Wouldn’t it be better if we just let go, and let people be who they are? Then we’d be able to see them as they are — with all their beauty and goodness in which we take joy, and with all their faults which we can also see in ourselves.
When we have put someone up on a pedestal, sculpturing them to fit our needs and desires by smoothing out the rough edges and creating new curves here and there, we cannot see the real person underneath our work. All we see is the illusion we have created. That is denying the person’s real identity and is disrespectful.
It’s much better for our friends and for ourselves if we drop our expectations and illusions, and accept them all just the way they are.
Whether we realize it or not, everyone we know is very special to us.
The most important thing to remember is… Always appreciate the friends that you have.
A fight may come and go very easily, but a friendship could last forever.
The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They are the ones that care.
“I just do not hang around anybody that I don’t want to be with. Period. For me, that’s been a blessing, and I can stay positive. I hang around people who are happy, who are growing, who want to learn, who don’t mind saying sorry or thank you… and (are) having a fun time.” - John Assaraf

I just got the best news this year so far. My Clerkship is official! I am immensely humbled and in total awe of how God’s grace is immeasurable. I have never chase a dream in my life other than being a doctor, and now i’m closer than ever.
Thank you Father, your trust in me and your provision, guidance and your exceeding love for me. I have trespasses and have disappointed you in many ways but You have always worked with me and on my behalf every day for the last 3 years of Med School, Thank You God.
This too shall pass. <3
