I've been trying to write this letter for awhile now, the kind you said you've never recieved, the kind I've been working on my whole life. And I remember being thirteen years old, sitting in my room at night, listening to the same song over and over..I thought that if I could write something beautiful, something honest, maybe I could make someone love me. I've taken alot for granted, I never tried to hard, I've always avoided resposibility, I came here cause I was running away, I wanted to be alone; instead I met you, and you werent taking anything for granted. I hope you get all the moments you deserve, I hope you go back to new york and sit in the met, in the room with the paintings of the Hudson River...and I hope when you do, you take Lucy with you, cause I know she would love it. I'm sorry if I made your life more complicated, Im sorry for alot of things, but most of all, Im sorry I never got the chance to tell you, no matter what happens next, I'll never be anything but grateful for every moment I spent with you. And even tho I keep fumbling for the right words, all I really wanted to say was 'Thank you' -Carter Webb, In the land of women
These day's i'm just not quite sure what to write in here. Everything's been really insane lately, my life is like a constant roller coaster. Good days followed by bad days, followed by worse ones. Watching movies like In the land of women, or The Holiday, don't make things any better, but instead, it just reminds me that life can't be the fairy tale I wish it was. No matter what happens, love hurts. Friendship hurts. And that realization is kind of getting annoying. Things like this, days like this, make me think we're all on a subtle self distruct mode. Are we all secretly sado-masichistic, thriving on the pain we inflict, and feel ourselves?

'Maybe the past is like an anchor holding us back. Maybe, you have to let go of who you were to become who you will be.' Carrie
'If I weren't perpetually 10 minutes late, would my life be totally different?' Carrie
'It's very strange when the life you never had flashes before your eyes.' Carrie
'Let's be honest. Sometimes there is nothing harder in life than being happy for somebody else. Like lottery winners. Or extremely successful people who are 27. And then there's that hell on earth that only your closest friends can inflict on you -- the baby shower' Carrie
'Your relationship is my greatest fear realized.' Samantha
"So what makes anger different from the six other deadly sins? It's pretty simple really, you give into a sin like envy or pride and you only hurt yourself. Try lust or coveting and you'll only hurt yourself and one or two others. But anger...anger is the worst...the mother of all sins. Not only can anger drive you over the edge, when it does you take an awful lot of people with you."

My Happy Place
Human beings need a lot of things to feel alive. Family...Love...Sex. But we only need one thing...To actually be alive. We need a beating heart. When our heart is threatened... we respond in one of two ways. We either run or we attack. There's a scientific term for this: Fight...or flight. It's instinct...We can't control it. Or can we? -
