"The best kind of rain, of course, is a cozy rain. This is the kind the anonymous medieval poet makes me remember, the rain that falls on a day when you'd just as soon stay in bed a little longer, write letters or read a good book by the fire, take early tea with hot scones and jam and look out the streaked window with complacency." ~Susan Allen Toth

"People say that what we’re all seeking is a meaning for life. I don’t think that’s what we’re really seeking. I think that what we’re seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonances without own innermost being and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive." — Joseph Campbell

Looking back, I have this to regret, that too often when I loved, I did not say so. ~David Grayson

Miss Scarlett 04-13-2011 04:40 AM

From my friend:

I Stay Focused.

Today I stay centered in and with Universal Goodness.

I know that the goodness that I experience in life is Infinite.

I know that I am an expression of this Infinite Goodness.

I sit back, relax and inhale the majestical Energy that is.

No matter what may be going on "outside" of me, today my focus is "within".

I try my best not to allow outer distractions stray me from my main focus.

When this happens I quickly get back on the beam.

The more I embrace this idea the richer my life becomes.

I love how this Stuff works!

I resonate with this idea right now.

And so it is.

Flatter me, and I may not believe you. Criticize me, and I may not like you. Ignore me, and I may not forgive you. Encourage me, and I will not forget you. Love me and I may be forced to love you. ~ William Arthur Ward

"Life is like a blanket too short. You pull it up and your toes rebel, you yank it down and shivers meander about your shoulder; but cheerful folks manage to draw their knees up and pass a very comfortable night." ~Marion Howard

Don't make the same mistake twice seems to indicate three mistakes, doesn't it? First you make the mistake. Then you make the same mistake twice? If you simply say, "Don't make the same mistake." you'll avoid the first mistake.

Here's some fun: Stand in line at a bank for a really long time. Then when you finally get up to the window, just ask for change of a nickel. It's fun. They actually call other tellers over to look at you.

Unique needs no modifer. very inique, quite unique, more unique, real unique, fairly unique and extremely unique are wrong, and they mark you as dumb. Although certainly not unique.

Tell me, what will you do with your one wild and precious life?

~Mary Oliver

"As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let us down, probably will. You'll have your heart broken and you'll break others' hearts. You'll fight with your best friend or maybe even fall in love with them, and you'll cry because time is flying by. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely, and love like you've never been hurt. Life comes with no guarantees, no time outs, no second chances. you just have to live life to the fullest, tell someone what they mean to you and tell someone off, speak out, dance in the pouring rain, hold someone's hand, comfort a friend, fall asleep watching the sun come up, stay up late, be a flirt, and smile until your face hurts. Don't be afraid to take chances or fall in love and most of all, live in the moment because every second you spend angry or upset is a second of happiness you can never get back." - Unknown
