:-: wisdom from Marilyn Monroe....yep, you read that right....Marilyn Monroe:-:

Yep....Marilyn Monroe. For some reason there is something so personal for me about these quotes. Something resonates with me.

"I believe everything happens for a reason! People change so you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you can appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so that you will eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes, good things fall apart, so better things can fall together.""...If you can make a girl laugh - you can make her do anything..." -"I want to grow old without facelifts... I want to have the courage to be loyal to the face I've made. Sometimes I think it would be easier to avoid old age, to die young, but then you'd never complete your life, would you? You'd never wholly know you" -I am not interested in money. I just want to be wonderful.
"I've never dropped anyone I believed in.""Everybody is always tugging at you. They'd all like a sort of chunk out of you. I don' think they realize it, but it's like 'grrr do this, grr do that...' But you do want to stay intact and on two feet." "A career is wonderful, but you can't curl up with it on a cold night."dear marilyn.....you pretty much hit me right on the nose.....all my worries, frustrations and fears. love....me.

I LOVE the one:
"I am not interested in money I just want to be wonderful"

and:
"If you can make a girl laugh you can make her do anything"

those are awesome quotes. Marilyn Monroe was a smart woman :-)

Marilyn and I said the same idea: Learn the lesson in order to let go and sometimes being strong means not holding on, but learning to let go :) I love you so dearly. We have seen each other through so much and for that I am grateful. Life keeps us as kindred spirits and allows us to keep blessing each other. All my love always :)
