It Goes On

"In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life. It goes on." - Robert Frost

- Jeff Buckley

Choices

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

It ain't over till its over

Everything will be okay in the end, if its not okay then its not the end.

Words

If you ever doubt the power of language, listen more closely.
Witness the magic the first time someone whispers "i love you."
Watch a woman put on head phones, close her eyes, and have her life changed by a lyric.
See a bad moment flipped upside down by a well timed joke.
Words propel us, empower us, make us human and more than human.
We constantly struggle to say what we mean and mean what we say. To "wrestle with words and meanings." that's what t.s. eliot calls it.
But as we whisper and shout, stutter and spin, we create order out of the chaos around us.
We are built of words, and we live by them, too.

One Day...

“You know, one day you look at a person

and see something more than you did the day before,

like a switch has been flickered somewhere,

and the person who was just your friend

is suddenly the only person

you can ever imagine yourself" with.”

Love

“There is only one page left to write on. I will fill it with words of only one syllable.

 I love. I have loved. I will love.”

- Audrey Niffenger

Experience

"Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes." - Oscar Wilde

Create

Where are you going?

Big Stick

"Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far."
--Theodore Roosevelt

The little prince

It is only with the heart that one can see clearly, for the most essential things are invisible to the eye.
 

-Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Journey

At times the world may seem an unfriendly and sinister place, but believe that there is much more good in it than bad. All you have to do is look hard enough. And what might seem to be a series of unfortunate events may in fact be the first steps of a journey. - Lemony Snicket

Triumph over all

Buy Here

"I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge. That myth is more potent than history. That dreams are more powerful than facts. That hope always triumphs over experience. That laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than death." 

— Robert Fulghum 

The World

“The world is a dangerous place. Not because of those who do evil, 

but because of those who look on and do nothing.”

- Albert Einstein

Be You

- Dr. Seuss

Moments

There are moments of such pure, sublime, unparalleled perfection that they will force you to close your eyes and hold on to them as best you can. Life is a series of these moments. Everything else is just waiting for them.
-Iain Thomas

Other Half

"According to Greek mythology, humans were originally created with four arms, four legs and a head with two faces. Fearing their power, Zeus split them into two separate parts, condemning them to spend their lives in search of their other halves."

- Plato, The Symposium
