Some people have a photographic memory. I've got the film.
"Your present circumstances don't determine where you can go; they merely determine where you start."
"The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen."
"Ambition is a dream with a V8 engine."
~~ Elvis Presley
"Look at a day when you are supremely satisfied at the end. It's not a day when you lounge around doing nothing, it's when you've had everything to do and you've done it." -- Margaret Thatcher
"Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future." ~ John F. Kennedy
"Take care to distinguish between things you can control and things you can't, so that you will no longer worry about the things you can't control and will instead focus your attention on the things you can control."
"If you want happiness for an hour -- take a nap. If you want happiness for a day -- go fishing. If you want happiness for a year -- inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime -- help someone else."
-- Chinese Proverb
Life can change so fast, so unexpectadly. Love when you can, while you can, as much as you can.
Life is not a contest of who is better than who, when you drop the ego, you will see that we are all on the same side.
"Consult not your fears but your hopes and your dreams. Think not about your frustrations, but about your unfulfilled potential. Concern yourself not with what you tried and failed in, but with what it is still possible for you to do."
~~ Pope John XXIII
