Breathing just a little and calling it a life?




If you're having one of those days, when you just want to tuck in and stay home, this is for you. If you feel like you're dreams are just too far away. If you you're not sure you passed your semester exams. If you have a hangover. If you're lonely. If you don't know what to do with your life. This is for you.

This kid just passed away on May 20th. That was yesterday.

What he has left behind is something so beautiful and important my words can't do it justice.

His family has requested that anyone interested in helping change the future for those like Zach donate to the research fund set up on his behalf. Click here to donate or get more information about Children's Cancer Research.

“Do I love you because you're beautiful, or are you beautiful because I love you?”

Roald Dahl, The Twits

“For Attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair, let a child run their fingers through it once a day.
For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. 
People, more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms.
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself and the other for helping others.”
