the girl really worth having




-why don't you tell me that 
'if the girl had been worth having, she'd have waited for you'? 

-no, sir, the girl really worth having won't wait for anybody.

{ f. scott fitzgerald }


here's to choosing instead of waiting to be chosen
and
being the girl who doesn't wait. 

thanks meg for being there when i need you with the right quote and cup of tea

Natalie, I love your blog... not only because you are amazing (opinion based on what I read here!), but also because you are such a strong woman and I really like the way you think about life and love! :)

Cheers to "choosing instead of waiting to be chosen and being the girl who doesn't wait"!

This is such a great quote! Wished I had read it back when I was single and upset over a young man not choosing me... at the time. He came back later... and I was no longer available. Your time will come! (Hopefully sooner than later.... if that is your desire!)

girrrrrl,

thank you so much for these words. what an encouragement! i stand beside them (and you) and raise a figurative glass of Courage to this quote. it couldn't have come at a more perfect time, and it couldn't have been written any better than that.

*i also love your blog (esp your bachelor stream of consciousness). you've got friends all over this large map sending you giant high-fives!
