"Life is waiting for you to happen"
~ Marianne Williamson |
Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts.
Mark Twain |

It doesn’t matter what they will make of you
or your days: they will be wrong, they will miss the wrong woman, miss the wrong man, all the stories they tell will be tales of their own invention. Your story was this: you were happy, then you were sad, you slept, you awakened. Sometimes you ate roasted chestnuts, sometimes persimmons. --Jane Hirshfield |
...perhaps all the dragons of our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us once beautiful and brave.
Perhaps everything terrible is in its deepest being something helpless that wants help from us. Rainer Maria Rilke |
For the pessimist....how boring.....
I guess I just prefer to see the dark side of things. The glass is always half empty. And cracked. And I just cut my lip on it. And chipped a tooth.
~Janeane Garofalo |
Love is when the happiness of another person is essential to your own.
|
Just don't give up trying to do what you really want to do. When there is love and inspiration, I don't think you can go wrong. - Ella Fitzgerald - |
I quote others only in order the better to express myself.
Michel de Montaigne |
Seen on a bumper sticker: I believe in good men, flying dragons, and other fairytale creatures.

Living life in terms of your vision and working toward your goals must be done in the context of today's activities. Do not focus too heavily on the results of your efforts. Do not live for the future attainment of your goal. Live your life through the lens of your vision and what can be done in the present moment. Living your vision is not about reaching your goals. It is about living and working toward them. It is not about producing results but about living your life in a more meaningful and personally rewarding way.
Ari Kiev |
I wish there were a book I could read each day to tell me exactly what to do to live consciously from my heart and soul. But part of the mystery and magic, part of the reason I'm here, is to try to stumble through and hear what the soul has to say about what it needs at each moment--whether it is to work through an emotional block, discover what the next lesson is, meet the next soul mate (my children are soul mates; my best friends are soul mates), or finish my business with the one I'm with now. Ultimately, for most of us, the journey comes down to the same issue: learning to love freely. First ourselves, then other people.
Melody Beattie |
A successful life for a man or for a woman seems to me to lie in the knowledge that one has developed to the limit the capacities with which one was endowed; that one has contributed something constructive to family and friends and to a home community; that one has brought happiness wherever it was possible; that one has earned one's way in the world, has kept some friends, and need not be ashamed to face oneself honestly.
Eleanor Roosevelt |
Smile. Have you ever noticed how easily puppies make human friends? Yet all they do is wag their tails and fall over.
~Walter Anderson, The Confidence Course, 1997 |
