Life 13...
all people know the
same truth, our lives consist of how we choose to distort it -awakenings
one meets his destiny often on the road he takes to avoid it -french
proverb
don't look where you fall, but where you slipped
never let your success
go to your head and never let your failures go to your heart
efforts and courage
are not enough without purpose and direction -john f. kennedy
to those of you who have pushed me, thank you- without you i wouldnt have
fallen. to those of you who laughed at me, thank you- without you i wouldn't
have cried. to those of you who just couldnt love me, thank you- without
you i wouldnt have known real love. to those of you who hurt my feelings,
thank you- without you i wouldnt have felt them. to those of you who left
me lonely, thank you- without you i wouldnt have discovered myself, but
it is to those of you who thought i couldnt do it-- it is to you i thank
the most because, without you i wouldn't have tried
for everything you have missed, you have gained something else -ralph
waldo emerson
when things are bad,
we take comfort in the thought that they could always be worse, and when
they are, we find hope in the thought that things are so bad they have
to get better -malcolm s. forbes
what i must do is all that concerns me, not what people think, it is hard
because you will always find those people who think they know what is
your duty better then you know it. it is easy in the world to live after
the worlds opinion, it is easy in solitude to live after our own, but
the great man is who he is in the midst of a crowd, keeps with perfect
sweetness the independance of solitude -ralph waldo emerson
Isn't this the moment where one of us is supposed to say, 'This is ridiculous.
We love each other, all couples go through this. Let's give it another
try?'- The Story of Us
There are things about your childhood you hold onto, because they were
so much a part of you: the places you went, the people you know. -
The Wonder Years
God can’t hand you something new until you let go of what you’re
holding
As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed
to ever let us down, probably will. You'll have your heart broken and
you'll break others hearts. You'll blame a new love for things an old
love did. You'll fight with your best friend, you'll cry because time
is flying by, and you'll eventually lose somebody you love. So take too
many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely and love like you've never
been hurt… Cause every second you spend angry or upset is a second
of happiness you can never get back
Anger makes you smaller,
while forgiveness forces you to grow beyond what you were -Cherie
Carter-Scott
Music washes away
from the soul the dust of everyday life. -Berthold Auerbach
Everyday is amazing. Even if it's awful. Because everything is for a reason.
Because I know that this horrible thing that happens today will bring
me something amazing tomorrow –Sandra Bullock
Dreams aren't meant to be understood any more than tragedies can be avoided.
Life happens to us... the only certainty in all of it is that it just
keeps happening -everwood
Change has a considerable
psychological impact on the human mind. To the fearful it is threatening
because it means that things may get worse. To the hopeful it is encouraging
because things may get better. To the confident it is inspiring because
the challenge exists to make things better -King Whitney
Jr
Darkness cannot drive
out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only
love can do that. -Martin Luther King Jr
I have come to believe
over and over again, that what is most important to me must be spoken,
made verbal and shared, even at the risk of having it bruised and misunderstood,
For it is not the difference which immobilizes us most, but silence
I'm convinced that
tragedy wants to harden us and that our mission is to never let it. -Felicity
When you come to
the edge of all the light you know, and are about to step off into the
darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing one of two things will happen:
There will be something solid to stand on, or you will be taught how to
fly
