This will be played at my wedding. No doubt about it.
Oh, I´ve loved you from the start
In every single way
And more each passing day
You are brighter than the stars
Believe me when I say
Its not about your scars
Its all about your heart

Secrets
While I was laying in bed yesterday, I remembered the secret to happiness -- gratitude!
How could I forget? I was so focused on things that I didn't have or was lacking that I completely overlook all the amazing things that make my life comfortable and worthy. I just thought about all the things I was thankful for and realized how petty my problems seemed in comparison.
I know it sounds so cheesy. But if you actually stop to think about it, it all starts making sense. :)

RIP Steve Jobs
“Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
I always admired Steve Jobs and everything that he stood for and created. He was one of the rare people in business and innovation who answered the question why, not what. Why do we wake up in the morning and do what we do? Why should people buy my product? It made me really sad that he passed away but made me think about the way I've been living and how I still need to change many things within it.
No longer should I be afraid of taking risks and following my heart. It's funny because I was taught to listen to my heart and feelings as a child, -- to listen to my instincts because they're usually right anyways. But as we grow older, I come to realize that it's so difficult because it's scary. No one wants to be vulnerable, everyone wants to know exactly what the end result will turn out to be. Jobs reminded me that life is about risks...and going out there to take them for things you're passionate about.
I still remember when my dad told me, "you will never win if you're afraid of losing." So I'm going to stop sitting on the side line and really go out there...get my knees scratched and mind boggled by the possibilities.
