Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The trouble-makers. The round heads in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status-quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify, or vilify them. But the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do. "~ Jack Kerouac
"Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will."~ Dr. Robert Anthony

"Seek the wisdom of the ages, but look at the world through the eyes of a child."~ Ron Wild
These are some of my favorite Inspirational quotes.
Be well with love,Candi xoxo
And I ask how was your Sunday ???????
Song for the night; Alicia Keys; Un-thinkable
( here is my favorite part of the song, This is a great song,Love it)
U give me a feeling that I never felt before
And I deserve it, I know I deserve it
Its become something that's impossible to ignore
Its what we make it
I was wondering maybe
Could I make you my baby
If we do the unthinkable will it make us look crazy
Or would it be so beautiful either way I'm sayin
If you ask me I'm ready
If you ask me I'm ready

Why give up before we try
Feel the lows before the highs
Clip our wings before we fly away
I can't say I can't compare
I'm suspended it the air
Won't u come be in the sky with me

I was wondering maybe
Could I make you my baby
If we do the unthinkable will it make us look crazy
Or would it be so beautiful either way I'm sayin
If you ask me I'm ready
If you ask me I'm ready

I need a break so I will be offline until Monday....

1-800-SUICIDE   1-800-273-TALK 1-800-784-2433   1-800-273-8255 Some Facts About Suicide

• Suicide is the third leading cause of death among young people, age 14-24, in the United States – behind only accidents and homicides.
• 4 out of 5 people tell a friend or someone else before they attempt suicide.
• In the United States, a young person commits suicide every 90 seconds.
• Suicide is a permanent solution to what are usually temporary problems.
• People who attempt suicide do not necessarily want to die. They are looking for an end to their pain and they don’t see any other solution.
• The number one trigger for a young person to attempt suicide is the breakup of a significant relationship.
• Talking about suicide does not make someone more likely to attempt suicide.

Warning Signs of Suicide Most people who are suicidal give clues before they attempt to end their lives.  Often, these clues go unnoticed or are ignored.  Some of these clues might include:

• Talking about death – any mention of dying, disappearing, people being “better off” without them, or plans for hurting themselves
• Changes in personality – sad, withdrawn, irritable, anxious, tired, apathetic
• Changes in behavior – trouble concentrating on school, work, or routine tasks; abusing drugs or alcohol; acting impulsively
• Isolation – stop hanging out with friends, drop out of school activities
• Changes in sleep patterns – insomnia, oversleeping, nightmares
• Changes in eating habits – loss of appetite; significant weight gain or loss
• Diminished sexual interest – impotence, lack of desire
• Low self-esteem – feeling worthless, shame, guilt, or self-hatred
• Feelings of hopelessness – believing that things will never get better or that nothing will change
• A sudden lift of depression – someone who’s been feeling depressed who suddenly seems very calm and happy.  This calm, happy feeling could be because they’ve made up their mind that they’re going to kill themselves and, thus, know the pain is going to end.

  What to Do if You Suspect Someone May Be Suicidal

• Always take suicidal comments very seriously.
• Try not to act shocked.
• Validate your friend’s feeling by being non-judgmental and non-confrontational.
• Listen to your friend and be as understanding as possible.  Help them see that there are other options besides suicide.
• Allow your friend to express emotions in any way he/she wants (crying, yelling, cursing, etc). However, do not allow your friend to become violent or hurt himself or herself.
• Do not be afraid to talk to someone about suicide. Talking about suicide will not encourage someone to kill himself or herself. However, it is best to focus on what the person is feeling rather than trying to talk them out of it.
• Do not try to handle the situation by yourself. A suicidal person needs assistance from qualified mental health professionals. encourage your friend to speak with a parent, teacher, or counselor.
• If your friend has a plan to commit suicide, you must immediately tell someone who can intervene. In some cases you may need to call 911.
• If someone tells you that you need to keep his or her suicidal intentions a secret, you must never keep that “secret.”  Although you may feel like you are violating your friend’s trust, you may very well be saving their life by getting them help.  You always have the chance to repair that friendship.  If they kill themselves, you will never have that chance.
• Because suicidal feelings may come and go, you should follow up with your friend on a regular basis to make sure he or she is doing okay. If your friend becomes suicidal again, take immediate action to help him or her get help.

  Depression Some Facts About Depression

• Clinical depression is a serious illness that affects a person’s family, friends, work or school life, sleeping and eating habits, and general health.
• Depression affects approximately 18.8 million American adults, or about 9.5% of the U.S. population age 18 and older, in a given year.
• Two-thirds of people suffering depression do not seek treatment.
• Without treatment, a major depressive episode lasts an average of 6 months.
• 90% of people with depression will experience multiple depressive episodes in their life.
• Approximately 3% of depressed people will commit suicide.
• Depression can be successfully treated with talk-therapy, anti-depressants, and certain life-style changes.
• Treatment can reduce the chance of having another depressive episode by up to 70%.

Causes of Depression

Unfortunately, it is not fully known what causes depression. A number of theories turn to genetic and biological factors, environmental influences, and childhood or developmental events.  Depression is most often caused by the influence of more than just one or two factors.  The causes of depression are likely to be different for different people. Whatever the causes, depression can be effectively treated.  

Symptoms of Depression Only a licensed mental health professional can make a diagnosis for someone who is depressed. However, some of the symptoms people with depression experience include:

• Sad, lonely, empty, and detached mood
• Feeling meaningless and unreal (not really being there)
• Loss of interest of pleasure in nearly all activities
• Feelings of worthlessness or guilt
• Difficulty thinking, concentrating, or making decisions
• Decreased energy, fatigue, and feeling “slowed down”
• Changes in appetite and/or weight
• Changes in sleeping (oversleeping and/or insomnia)
• Changes in sexual behavior (loss of interest or hypersexuality)
• Physical aches and pains (e.g. headaches, flu-like symptoms)
• Thoughts of death and/or suicide

What to Do if You Suspect Someone May Be Depressed

• Learn as much as you can about depression.
• Ask your friend about what they are going though in a non-confrontational way.
• Let your friend know that depression is an illness that can be treated.
• Do not try to become their therapist – instead, listen, support, encourage, and “be there” for them.
• When talking with your friend, keep the focus on how they are feeling. Do not try to make them feel better by downplaying what is upsetting them.
• Encourage your friend to speak to a parent, teacher, or school counselor.
• If your friend has a plan to commit suicide, you must tell someone and try to get them help

"Remember we can't save the world" no matter how hard we try we can't make people be what we want them to be....all we can do is pray that God is holding out his arm!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Be well with love, Candi xoxo
And I ask how was your day????
update: learning this Iphone is pretty cool, ok have a great night
Song for the night: Akon Smack that (LOL) that ones for you Jess :)
EVERYTHING

I have to say this is another great song from her Rated R album.......
Sitting here listening to the rain, Just loving it.... ( I love the rain)
Have a great day.
Be well with love, Candi
And I ask how was your rainy day!!!!!!!
 My new iphone is here, God I hope I have better luck with it then the blackberry.... K  now to figure it all out lol,  Having a new number sucks!!! I will just be sending a mass email out when I figure out how the hell to do that... I have to say today was a better day :) I little piece of happness...
Maybe that's all we need...... have a great night xoxo

Wow what a great song!!!!!   This has to be my song for the night ...... Never will I let them see me cry, I don't think I have any tears left, after a decade, My tears just will not come out anymore. Sometimes I think my heart has just become stone. Like a big rock just sitting inside of my chest.... Sometimes I feel as the whole world is on my shoulders, and it is hard to breath, hard to let go.
 Like these four walls are closing in on me and their is no way out.......
God will and always does fix it all.. I just have to find him again. Believe in what he wants from me....
Be well with love Candi :(
And I ask how was your day?????

Don't you wish you could stop time.. Like a remote you just hit rewind and start over. Or delete and you could just skip things you don't like.... Wow the many things I would change, The path I am on right now is crazy and I haven't figured out why God has me here. But I know he knows what he is doing. So I must leave it up to him. Some times people's paths cross for a reason. It might because they needed you at that time in their life and God new that, I don't talk much about faith and God on there, Some times people are still very angry at him of placing them on a path they don't want to be on. But I believe everything happens for a reason, Some times we want to hold on to things we can't have. And the longer we try the harder is it to let go.......and the more it hurts.......I don't yet have the answers I am looking for and maybe I am not supposed to...Maybe their are no answers.
Maybe this is just who I am and all I will ever be....
Be well with love,Candi
Song for the night: Lady Gaga: speechless( this is a great song find and listen to it) 

As we know their is never enough time in one day to do everything we want to do. Today seemed to fly by for me:)
Everyday I try to make time for the ones I love and who count on me to be there for them. Making sure the people I care about know they can count on me, is very important to me. I know sometimes it is hard to help everyone at once and be everything they need me too be. But I can say this I honestly give it my all. Everyday, I try to reach their goals and exceptions. Some days are better than others but I never stop trying, I just hope that one day when the ones I care about look back they will say WOW. She was really their for me, That I never let them down.... I make sure I tell them everyday I love and care about them or miss them.....You never know what tomorrow brings and yes we all plan for tomorrow and have dreams and goals But we are never granted tomorrow, SO always live for today!!!! Make time to tell the people in your life how you feel about them, So if your  tomorrow
doesn't come  they will know..... <3

A few quotes I found and thought were cute! and want to share them with you all. I would love to hear some of your favorite quotes..
Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will lie under the stars and listen to your heartbeat, or will stay awake just to watch you sleep... wait for the boy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends, who thinks you' re just as pretty without makeup on. One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares and how lucky he is to have YOU... The one who turns to his friends and says, thats her.....

Only when we are no longer afraid do we begin to live. "So when am I gonna stop being so afraid and really just start to live."

 
Life is what you make of it. Always has been, always will be
