In The Depth Of Winter I Found Within Me An Invincible Summer.

Let It Be.

"Don't tell me the sky is the limit when there are footprints on the moon."

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It’s not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”- a re-work from Marianne Williamson's quote.

One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching :) Hope it's usefull ;)

"The meaning of life is to give your life meaning." - In 2007 this little tidbit came to me and I did an internet search, but didn't find it anywhere, so I resolved to make it a common saying.

I don't claim authorship of the phrase, but I never heard anyone say it before I said it to myself, and I looked for someone else to quote. Now you can find a few sites with this phrase posted and readily available for quotation. Please spread it around and post it for many people to see, for the meaning of life IS to give your life meaning.

EDIT: I just checked, and it still hasn't made it onto the wikipedia page for "The Meaning of Life". Maybe someday. :)

Everybody , one day will die and be forgotten .Act and behave in a way that will make life interesting and fun , fuck a mundane predectible life working monday to friday with something you derive no pleasure from , just living life out till you grow old and wither away .Find a passion from relationships , don't be afraid to go out there , fuck what everyone else think , it's a lot fun that way . Don't ever pay people out or put people down , instead put yourself up and let the haters do their thing , i'd rather be a person that's hated on than be a person that does the hating . A wise man once said "Haters gonna hate!"

"In the name of the best within you, do not sacrifice this world to those who are its worst. In the name of the values that keep you alive, do not let your vision of man be distorted by the ugly, the cowardly, the mindless...Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle. The world you desire can be won, it exists, it is real, it is possible, it's yours."

“What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead.”― Nelson Mandela

I just bought Demi Lovato's book of quotes, and I must say I enjoy it! The first quote was "You are beautifully and wonderfully made," which I like especially for those who have a difficult time accepting themselves. Personally, my mantra is "Time moves on," because it helps remind me that I'm never stuck in the moment and that bad times will inevitably pass, bringing better times with it. :)
