In case you failed to notice,
in case you failed to see,
this is my heart,
bleeding before you,
this is me down on my knees.

Maybe you should have loved me more.

Maybe everything breaks sometime.

Gather yourself by the sea shore and I will love you there.
Assemble yourself with wild things,
with songs of the sparrow and sea-foam.
Let mad beauty collect itself in your eyes
and it will shine - Calling me.
For I long for a man with nests of wild things in his hair.
A man who will Kiss the Flame.
- Jewel

I'm having a bad day. I am not size six.
My legs are not skinny as sticks,

and that my happiness depends on someone else.
I feel weak, so you're gonna take the fall.
You're so shallow.
- Jewel

So your world becomes what you feel and what you think.

If I could tell the world just one thing
it would be we're all okay,

and useless in times like these.
I won't be made useless.
I won't be idle with despair,
I will gather myself around my faith.
Light does the darkness most fear.

have fun, take chances. There are no bounds.

They say they're better than you, and you agree.

I get bored very easily, ...
I have a voracious appetite and I do not feel alive
if I'm repeating something I'm good at.
So I'm always looking for new challenges.

it just moves you and it will let you cry.
It's worth it doing a show
and when you touch a crowd
and move yourself at the same
- Jewel

You have to realize: OK, I don't know how
to solve a political problem,
I don't know how to solve the pollution problem...
all I know is in my own life,
I need to figure out some sense of purpose,
I need to figure out how to be happy...
and I'm willing.

If a friend of mine gave a feast, and did not invite me to it,
I should not mind a bit.
but if a friend of mine had a sorrow
and refused to allow me to share it,
I should feel it most bitterly.
If he shut the doors of the house of mourning against me,
I would move back again and again and beg to be admitted
so that I might share in what I was entitled to share.
If he thought me unworthy, unfit to weep with him,
I should feel it as the most poignant humiliation.

Consider being more acceptive of your partner's behaviors.
It is unlikely that they are intentionally aggravating you.

Your relationship will become stronger and happier if you do.

but we cannot accept and love ourselves.

thoroughly used up, totally worn out,
and loudly proclaiming, "Wow! What a Ride!"
- Hunter S. Thompson

No partner in a love relationship...
should feel that he has to give up
an essential part of himself to make it viable.

While you can and should keep your composure and happiness
regardless of circumstances - regardless of your friends,
family and co-workers - regardless of gossip, sarcasm, and negativity.

in the company of enthusiastic positive people -
not necessarily those who agree with you,
but those who respect your right to your point of view.
