Writing on Her Journal

Journal

"I'm not afraid to die, but to think I haven't lived. That terrifies me." 

  -(li-ttle-lies) Tumblr 

"You are under no obligation to be the same person you were five minutes ago." -Anonymous 

"What a comfort is this journal I tell myself to myself and throw the burden on my book and feel relieved."

-Anne Lister

"If you were ninety nine years old and you looked back at this moment, what would you do differently."

    - Anonymous

"The resolved mind hath no cares." -George Herbert

"Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is your than you." - Dr. Seuss

"Every morning you have two choices. Continue to sleep with your dreams, or wake up and chase them."

    -Anonymous

"How you love yourself is how you teach others to love you.   -Rupi Kaur

"There are two kinds of loneliness one you feel when your alone, and the other you feel in a crowded room, when you realize you're the only person who knows what it's like to be you." -Atticus

"I took a deep breath and listened to the old brag of my heart:

                I am, I am, I am."

 -Sylvia Plath("The Bell Jar")

" remember

   you were a writer

   before

   you ever

   put

   word to paper.

   just because you          were not

   writing 

   externally.

   does not mean you      were not

   writing 

   internally."

      -Nayyirah Waheed

"The only thing I have done religiously in my life is keep a journal, I have hundreds of them, filled with feathers, flowers, photographs, and words-without locks, open on my shelves."
-Terry Tempest Williams

 I want to be the best possible version of myself. This is the entire reason that I write this Journal, so that I can ultimately improve as a human being. I write inspirational ways to better myself and reflect on moments of the past to change my outlook on life. I concentrate these ideas into one place so that I may look back on them and remember who it is I strive to be.  

- Alexis Halloran

"It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities."

structure you need."

"The aim in life is self-development. To realize one's nature perfectly -that is what each of us is here for. People are afraid of themselves, nowadays. They have forgotten the highest of all duties, the duty that one owes to oneself." -Oscar Wilde

"Do one thing everyday that scares you."

    -Eleanor Roosvelt

"That which does not kill us makes us stronger."

    -Friedrich Nietzsche

    but

    It will make you free."

    -If no one has told           you, your freedom is       more important than       their anger.

        -Nayyirah Waheed
