Quotes

You've got a lot of choices.  If getting out of bed in the morning is a chore and you're not smiling on a regular basis, try another choice.  ~Steven D. Woodhull (U.S. geologist, 1976-)


Anyone can carry his burden, however hard, until nightfall.  Anyone can do his work, however hard, for one day.  Anyone can live sweetly, patiently, lovingly, purely, till the sun goes down.  And this is all life really means.  ~Robert Louis Stevenson



 
Tough and funny and a little bit kind:  that is as near to perfection as a human being can be.  ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Second Neurotic's Notebook, 1966

It seems as though life can through you off track as it wishes. Nothing is ever quite like what you plan. Does this mean we can not plan our life? Or that some plans are beyond our control? What happened to be all you can be because you can be anything you want! I feel as though the pull of gravity is pulling in the opposite direction from where I want it to take me. When I change direction it seems to change its flow as I do.  I have plenty in my life to make me happy, but what happiness I have is dampened by the unhappiness that surrounds me. To turn this darkness into light I must shine with all my might. So I do, but still this darkness surrounds me. What is in the distance will always be dark, its the amount of light at your feet you need to guide your way. So I say this, but I don't feel this way inside. Life scares me. With every step I take a chance at falling. If I just stand and be real still I will stay standing; but would good would that do me? To just stand still....
