I know that life is a doorway to eternity, and yet my heart so often gets lost in petty anxieties. It forgets the great way home that lies before it. Unprepared, given over to childish trivialities, it could be taken by surprise when the great hour comes and find that, for the sake of piffling pleasures, the one great joy has been missed. I am aware of this, but my heart is not. It seems unteach-able; it continues its dreaming
always wavering between joy and depression. (Sophie Scholl) "The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function. One should, for example, be able to see that things are hopeless and yet be determined to make them otherwise." (F. Scott Fitzgerald) "Its not who you are that holds you back, its who you think you're not." --Unknown
You are not here to fix anything, because nothing is broken, but everything is continually changing and expanding. Release your struggle, and seek joy and fun, and in doing so, you will align with the fantastic expanding rhythm of this Universe. -Abraham-Hicks You cannot perform in a manner inconsistent with the way you see yourself. (Zig Ziglar) "Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the future." {Paul Boese} My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return. [Maya Angelou] "If we are ever to enjoy life, now is the time, not tomorrow or next year... Today should always be our most wonderful day." <Thomas Dreier> "One day, a new ideal will arise, and there will be an end to all wars. I die convinced of this. It will need much hard work, but it will be achieved... The important thing, until that happens, is to hold one's banner high and to struggle....Without struggle, there is no life." <Kaethe Kollwitz> Destiny is no matter of chance. It is a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.
-William Jennings Bryan "Pressure is a word that is misused in our vocabulary. When you start thinking of pressure, it's because you've started to think of failure." <Tommy Lasorda> |
