I can pour my heart out on tumblr posts or various websites. But when it comes to important assignments:
”To quote Skinner is aah,The author umm said that he is umm. He didn’t mean..I don’t know what I’m talking about!”.
the way I type on tumblr: assntitties lololol rkejwhlkjdhlwkjerhwer I can't even with all these feels
the way I write for class: Under this assumption, it is safe to dictate in a clear and particularly concise way that the author not only felt the need to illustrate the background surrounding the mortifying, yet tragic, action that pushes forward the engaging plot, but also the background of the reader's very own heart.

Pointing out sin is easy.
Forgiving it takes guts and an unconquerable affection. Saving the faithful and righteous is easy.
Redeeming the broken and lost takes relentlessness and daring. Condemning evil people is easy.
Forgiving them and guiding them to the righteousness that was theirs all…

I always thought the “Love keeps no record of wrongs” statement was about forgiving someone’s physical mistakes or ‘wrong’ actions, but it totally applies to destructive mindsets, too. Love doesn’t hold any misconceptions a person might believe against them. It hopes, endures, and believes all…
A wise man talks because he has something to say..
Just because you use a bunch of big words, have been to a good university, input random facts and are capable of persuasively bringing a point across, doesn’t mean you have an argument or that your point is valid. Being able to articulate a point is about relating to your audience and reaching to their level in a way that is kind and charismatic. That gets people listening.

How can one person just make me smile so much?
I’m beginning to understand why women go crazy over men, literally pouring their lives out for them and losing any form of logic. I’m not sure if it’s worth it in the end. But in the moment, it’s a little less short of magical.
Everyone: Are you okay
Everyone: You look tired
Everyone: You look upset
Everyone: You look confused
Everyone: Are you mad at me
Everyone: What are you mad at
Me: IT'S MY FACE

What are your top beauty tips?
Start out perfect and don’t change a thing. Always accentuate your best features by pointing at them. And conceal your flaws by sucker punching anyone who has the audacity to mention them.
”B.F Skinner did an experiment with animals and detailed that animals who were rewarded for good behaviour learnt much more rapidly, than animals who were punished. By criticising we do not make lasting changes and often incur resentment”- Dale Carnegie.
11. Stop being idle.
– Don’t think too much or you’ll create a problem that wasn’t even there in the first place. Evaluate situations and take decisive action. You cannot change what you refuse to confront. Making progress involves risk. Period! You can’t make it to second base with your foot on first.

It’s nothing really.
When a close friend invites you to go out, but they’re bringing someone who you struggle to get along with.
Jesus, be a fence.

I’m beginning to realize and understand why people seem to lose sight of their relationship with God. Why amidst an endless list of things to do, responsibilities to shoulder, people to meet with and tend to, that some end up feeling like they’ve put God as a second priority. But you know what,…

I think that creativity controls us. Wait—allow me to be more honest: It’s creativity that controls me. It’s the waiting. The waiting and waiting and seemingly endless waiting. I wait for the perfect glimmer of undivided inspiration. Sometimes it happens in a day, months or (in one case) leaves me…

This is what I realized when I was still in high school: If I can influence one person, there’s no telling how they will influence another person because of what I have done… and that person they influence, I have no idea how many they will influence. A few people down the line, who knows? I…

“What actually took place is this: I tried keeping rules and working my head off to please God, and it didn’t work. So I quit being a “law man” so that I could be God’s man. Christ’s life showed me how, and enabled me to do it. *I identified myself completely with him*. Indeed, I have been…

Religion often propagates the same fear that Jesus set us free from. We’re so stuck between what’s right and what’s wrong, that in the midst of it all we fail to see that’s no longer the real issue… it’s about right and best.
