“I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.” I continue to pray that I would always walk in the courage and confidence to take the narrow path, that I would always believe that sometimes the hard path will lead us to a beautiful harvest. 

I like the whole poem just as much as the last part that always gets quoted. The whole thing is just beautiful.

  • Act friendly: "She lead me on! Bitch!"
  • Don't act friendly: "She didn't give me a chance! Bitch!"
  • Let them down nicely: "Well she said 'not right now', so I'll keep trying 'til she changes her mind."
  • Flat-out say no: "What?! But I'm so nice! What a bitch! I'll keep trying 'til she changes her mind because she OWES me now."
  • Date someone else: "Ugh, women only date jerks!"
  • Don't date someone else: "Hello?! You clearly are single and so am I, why aren't we naked yet?"
  • Marry someone else, have baby, die tragically fighting Voldemort: "Now I will torture her emotionally and physically abused son because I loved her so much and she married that jackass Potter instead!"

"I’m never gonna wait that extra twenty minutes to text you back,
and I’m never gonna play hard to get
when I know your life has been hard enough already. When we all know everyone’s life has been hard enough already, it’s hard to watch the game we make of love, like everyone’s playing checkers with their scars, saying checkmate whenever they get out without a broken heart."
Andrea Gibson (via just-breezy)
"Everything interests me, but nothing holds me."
Fernando Pessoa (via lonur)
