"Seeing beyond our filters—our accumulated knowledge and beliefs—does not always come naturally. We have spent years growing attached to them in various degrees, and they feel safe. Whatever we become attached to can begin to shape our future experiences and limit our perception of what exists outside our vocabulary. Like blinders on a horse, our attached beliefs limit our vision, and this in turn limits our perceived direction in life. The stronger our level of attachment, the less we can see." -don Miguel Ruiz Jr,

Living in dreams of yesterday, we find ourselves still dreaming of impossible future conquests.--Charles Lindbergh

Dad was a man who, due to his underprivileged background perhaps, never hesitated when it came to
the verbs to get or to take. He was always getting something off the ground, his act together, his hands dirty, the show on the road, someone’s goat, the message, out more, on with things, lost, laid, away with murder. He was also always taking charge, the bull by the horns, back the night, something in stride, someone to the cleaners, a rain check, an ax to something, Manhattan. And when it came to looking at things, Dad was something of a Compound Microscope, one who viewed life through an adjustable eyepiece lens and thus expected all things to be in focus. He had no tolerance for The Murky, The Blurry, The Hazy or The Soiled. –Special Topics in Calamity Physics, Marisha Pessl |

"In the picture of my life, there are pieces found and lost, under the bed, stuck in the box, stuck to my shoe, under you. The picture is not lost, it is there; My vision is clear, the details sketchy from age yet the picture remains to view, to enjoy, to form, to shape, create, distract, retract, make anew..."-ME (just now):glasses::rubberducky::tea:

― Jack Kerouac, On the Road
“The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.”

There is no telling how many miles you will have to run while chasing a dream. ~Author Unknown Perseverance... keeps honor bright: to have done, is to hang quite out of fashion, like a rusty nail in monumental mockery. ~William Shakespeare |
