Love in its essence is unconditional. When conditions, exceptions, and ultimatums are cast into the mix, its purity changes. It is no longer love and should be referred to by a less-desirable name.

Sometimes the craziest laugh in the world is the only one that will save your sanity.
If we were to behave half as well as we believe others ought to behave, we might prove ourselves as grand in character as excuses and justifications prevent us from being.
I can be tolerant of traffic jams and disorganization, faulty technology, miserable weather, and bland foods. People, however, require more than the cold, grudging favor of being tolerated. They require love.
There are tomorrows on their way worth the struggles of today. Never give up.
Snowflakes fall from high.Flurries lift and twirl below.The world has turned white.
The Christmas spirit will elude you'til a selfless love consumes youand the joy of giving moves you.
I am more and more convinced that some people are put in our lives solely to try our patience and tamper with our tolerance levels.
My stomach rumbles.Plates of cookies, cake, and fudge.Christmastime is here.
Gingerbread houseswith gumdrops and peppermintand marshmallow snow.
Mary and Josephhuddle snugly together.They cradle God's son.
Wise men come to seea child of greater wisdomand honor divine.
Glittering tinsel,lights, glass balls, and candy canesdangle from pine trees.
New light in the skyannounces a sacred birth.Shine brightly young star.
Hallelujah songcarries on a gentle wind,heralding a king.
Sheep and goats and cowsgather 'round a manger bedto awe at a babe.
Born on straw at nightunder low stable rafters,Baby Jesus cried.
Rare and precious gifts,gold and myrrh and frankincense,to offer a king.
A new star shines bright.Angels herald the good news.The Christ child is born.
Shepherds lift their heads,not to gaze at a new lightbut to hear angels.
Dress the part! Invent and pretend to your heart’s content! Act, sing, and dance while everyone’s watching! The world’s a stage, remember?

We change when circumstances necessitate it, we adapt because we have to. The real challenge is to change when circumstances don’t demand it at all.
The richest people are those who have an abundance of what we take with us into the next life.
It is my belief that almost anyone can be had with breadcrumbs. For if you leave a trail of the right variety, your prey will come straight to you.
My life is a fairytale stuck at the climax.
There are two kinds of people in this world: those who follow the popular majority, and those who possess good sense. In other words, you can either let the crowd steer you right over a cliff, or you can stop to peer beyond the brink and see how a fall will likely end in tragedy.
The greater self-confidence an individual possesses, the less inclined he is to put down others. This says a lot about those who constantly belittle.
I wish upon a glimmering star,My hopes as distant and as far. So if this wish does not come true,I’m thankful for the few that do.
Don't ignore me. I only get more annoying.
I’ve had the kind of bad day no quote can fix.
