A Beautiful Place

"Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let the pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal away your sweetness. Take pride that even though the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place."
~Kurt Vonnegut

Remember to Really Live

The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, answered: 

“Man. Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies, having never really lived.”

Don't Forget to Live

First I was dying to finish high school and start college.

And then I was dying to finish college and start working.

And then I was dying to marry and have children.

And then I was dying for my kids to grow old enough so I could get back to my career.

And then I was dying to retire... 

and suddenly I realize, I forgot to live.

Love your Beautiful Life

Dear God,

Thanks for this beautiful life, and forgive me if I don't love it enough.

... we're probably all guilty of this sometimes, but there is always beauty in our life if we look past the obstacles to see it:)

Viewing Your Past and Present

The reason some people find it so hard to be happy is that they see the past better than it was, and the present worse than it is.

'As a man thinketh, so is he', so see the good, because your present is awesome!

Living Life

‎"I'll look back on this and smile, because it life and I decided to live it."

Headed for Sunshine

"Don’t confuse your path with your destination.

Just because it’s stormy now doesn’t mean you aren’t headed for sunshine."

~Unknown~

How to Use your Past

‎"Don't let your past dictate who you are, but let it be a part of who you will become."

The Next Chapter

‎"You can't start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading the last one"

Everything Happens for a Reason

‎"Someday everything will make perfect sense. So, for now, laugh at the confusion, smile through the tears and keep reminding yourself that everything happens for a reason."

Your Dance

"If you Stumble, Make it a Part of your Dance"

Wow, What a Ride!

From Sister Hinckley:

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving in a well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, 

"Wow, what a ride!"
