“in a world
full of
temporary things

you are
a perpetual
feeling.”

― Sanober Khan

“But even in his dissatisfaction he could not quiet the feeling that time was like a flash flood, so full, so brimming with things that must be done at once, but running out all the same, leaving an emptiness, a dry ditch in its wake.” ― Bess Tefft

“You can change your life or not change it.
It really doesn’t matter in the end.
Life as humans live it is too fleeting,
too incidental, too miniscule
for the universe to keep forever.
So just do good to others; be good, all
because it makes you happy,
happy beyond fame, power, and
eternity.”

― Psyche Roxas-Mendoza

“And so with the sunshine and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees, just as things grow in fast movies, I had that familiar conviction that life was beginning over again with the summer.” ~ F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

“So he tasted the deep pain that is reserved only for the strong, just as he had tasted for a little while the deep happiness.” ― F. Scott Fitzgerald

“My scars remind me that I did indeed survive my deepest wounds. That in itself is an accomplishment. And they bring to mind something else, too. They remind me that the damage life has inflicted on me has, in many places, left me stronger and more resilient. What hurt me in the past has actually made me better equipped to face the present.” ― Steve Goodier

“But we are strong, each in our purpose, and we are all more strong together.” ― Bram Stoker

Peace begins with a smile.--Mother Teresa

“The life you have left is a gift. Cherish it. Enjoy it now, to the fullest. Do what matters, now.” ― Leo Babauta

“There are so many more important things to worry about than how you're perceived by strangers.” ― Dennis Lehane

“I do not particularly like the word 'work.' Human beings are the only animals who have to work, and I think that is the most ridiculous thing in the world. Other animals make their livings by living, but people work like crazy, thinking that they have to in order to stay alive. The bigger the job, the greater the challenge, the more wonderful they think it is. It would be good to give up that way of thinking and live an easy, comfortable life with plenty of free time. I think that the way animals live in the tropics, stepping outside in the morning and evening to see if there is something to eat, and taking a long nap in the afternoon, must be a wonderful life. For human beings, a life of such simplicity would be possible if one worked to produce directly his daily necessities. In such a life, work is not work as people generally think of it, but simply doing what needs to be done.” ― Masanobu Fukuoka

“Watch carefully, the magic that occurs, when you give a person,
just enough comfort, to be themselves.”
-atticus

“Every time we choose safety, we reinforce fear.” ~ Cheri Huber

“The music of hope is everywhere, but to hear it, you need to ignore the muddy jangle of life's hassles.” - Christine Knight

The most beautiful thing in the world is, of course, the world itself.--Wallace Stevens
