Quotes & Taking Chances

Dear Prince Charming,

As you probably know by now, I adore quotes :) I found these today, and thought they were VERY true, and decided this blog was a good home for them :) They really are true - I am, so to speak, like the apple on the top of the tree, waiting. I am also going to take a huge chance on you. I am both excited and terrified to take that chance. Please don't ever hurt me or let me down... And I can only imagine that kissing you will feel the way they described :) I don't know, though, because I have never been kissed yet...


"The girl you marry will take a terrible chance on you. She will give her all to the young man she marries. He will largely determine the remainder of her life. She will even surrender her name to his name.... The girl who marries you will wish to be married to someone who loves her, who trusts her, who walks beside her, who is her very best friend and companion. She will wish to be married to someone who encourages her in her Church activity and in community activities which will help her to develop her talents and make a greater contribution to society. She will want to be married to someone who has a sense of service to others, who is disposed to contribute to the Church and to other good causes. She will wish to be married to someone who loves the Lord and seeks to do His will."
- President Gordon B. Hinckley

"That thing, that moment, when you kiss someone and everything around becomes hazy and the only thing in focus is you and this person and you realize that that person is the only person that you're supposed to kiss for the rest of your life, and for one moment you get this amazing gift and you want to laugh and you want to cry because you feel so lucky that you found it and so scared that that it will go away all at the same time.”

Women are like apples on trees, the best ones are on the top of the tree. The men don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and don't want to get hurt. Instead, they just get the rotten apples from the ground that aren't so good but easy. So, the apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in reality they are amazing. They just have to wait for the right man to come along, the one who's brave enough to climb all the way to the top because they value quality.
