"LIFE QUOTES TO INSPIRE YOU"



"Patience child, patience. Remember, life is a journey. If you got everything you wanted all at once there would be no point of living. Enjoy the ride, and in the end you'll see these 'set backs' as giant leaps forward, only you couldn't see the bigger picture in the moment. Remain calm, all is within reach; all you have to do is show up everyday, stay true to your path and you will surely find the treasure you seek."

"Being different doesn't make you a bad person. It makes you unique and true to yourself. So don't look at what others think. You are special."
Written in 2013 by Donald D. Dolan Jr. --- Florida
I created it because I was always different and I want other people to feel motivated at being different. Many people call people who are different... "weird' among other much worse names. This is what people consider outside the norm, but being different doesn't mean that you are a bad person or weird. It means you do what you wanna do to be different and people look down at that. I know because I am one of those people.



"Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves."

"The greatest legacy anyone can leave behind is to positively impact the lives of others. Whenever you add value to other people's lives, you are unknowingly leaving footprints on the sands of time that live on, even after your demise."

That's worth thinking about isn't it?






"When I think about "The Life of Pi", I contemplate on how his struggle has defined him. This only shows that in the darkest moment of our life, we will find our purpose, we will know who we are. It does not matter if we have become successful or not; what matters is that we know in our hearts that we have done the best out of the situation. When you have just been in a storm, be proud; you survived stronger and wiser. If you're going through a storm, then know that you will eventually get past it. Go "through" the storm; do not stay in it."

Reflections
Today I reflected on what could have been and what is to be
Today I reflected on the woman in the mirror
It was more than a picture, a dream, a painting
It was real; it was lived by me.

Today I reflected upon the journey
Today I reflected on that path which I traveled
It was challenging, it was sweet, and it was not a dream
It was real; it was life lived by me.

Today I reflected on living the life of that woman in the mirror
Today I stood up boldly and whispered deeply
Today is the day I will paint the picture, stand tall to the challenge,
And reap the sweets.
Today is the day I will conquer it all.

The best gift you can give to a friend is honesty/trust.
To your offender: forgiveness/second chance.
To your boss: loyalty/selfless service.
To your job/career: passion/hard work/commitment.
To your child: education/affection/care.
To your spouse/partner: true love/fidelity.
To all and sundry/the world at large: true love/equal rights and justice.
But most importantly, to your creator i.e. God almighty: your life/time.

All of the above is just my own ideology/philosophy.
