A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.
It's really interesting how music can knock down a wall and be an open connection between you and someone else where something else can't. When music comes along, it just opens your heart a little more.
The fact that I can plant a seed and it becomes a flower, share a bit of knowledge and it becomes another's, smile at someone and receive a smile in return, are to me continual spiritual exercises.
In my own relationships, I know that I should break up with someone who doesn't encourage me to be strong and make my own choices and do what's best in my life, so if you're dating someone who doesn't want you to be the best person you can be, you shouldn't be dating them.
There is no better exercise for your heart than reaching down and helping to lift someone up.
The true measure of a man is how he treats someone who can do him absolutely no good.
An important part of dating is communicating. We communicate by sharing our thoughts, ideas, and feelings. We enjoy being with someone when we have an easy time communicating or when we have a lot to talk about.
Every single thing that you learn really just gives you more comfort. It's something I counsel kids all the time: if someone is willing to teach you something for free, take them up on it. Do it. Every single time. All it does is make you more likely to be able to succeed. And it's kind of a nice way to go through life.
I just want to be there for my husband. I don't ever want him to think that he's not getting everything at home — love, attention, encouragement, a meal. I just want him to feel the best he feels at home. I think that's what a good wife is. Someone who is very attentive to her husband.
A garden requires patient labor and attention. Plants do not grow merely to satisfy ambitions or to fulfill good intentions. They thrive because someone expended effort on them.
You hear about people your whole life, 'So-and-so has cancer', and you're like, 'Wow, that's too bad', and then most people tend to go about their day. But when someone tells you that it's your father or it's your family, that doesn't tend to go away.
Being cool is being your own self, not doing something that someone else is telling you to do.
If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much.
Christmas is doing a little something extra for someone.
Jealousy can even be good for love. One partner may feel secretly flattered when the other is mildly jealous. And catching someone flirting with your beloved can spark the kind of lust and romance that reignites a relationship.
It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words, like 'What about lunch?'
I think, for other people who have lost someone and have loved again, it's a beautiful thing. But it's just not really on my horizon.
If you don't know how great this country is, I know someone who does; Russia.
God never gives someone a gift they are not capable of receiving. If he gives us the gift of Christmas, it is because we all have the ability to understand and receive it.
Don't let someone else's opinion of you become your reality.
