life is hard, but it could be harder<br /> Suicide is for people who are too weak for the real world.<br /> Those who dance are thought to be crazy by those who don&rsquo;t hear the music.<br /> People change, things go wrong. Just remember, life goes on.<br /> What you feed your mind is what it gives back to you!<br /> Be conscious of your subconscious mind. It&rsquo;s the storage area for all the things you don&rsquo;t pay attention to. It will eventually yield and even take over your conscious mind.<br /> Life is all about challenges. To become an over comer, you don&rsquo;t have to allow obstacles to become an impediment, but rather a stepping stone to your goals.<br /> I have failed over and over in my life and that is why I succeed.<br /> Imitation is Limitation.<br /> Life is like a novel with the end ripped out.<br /> Life is like a game of baseball<br /> You&rsquo;ll never know if you make the home run<br /> UNLESS YOU SWING<br /> Life is about creating yourself, not finding yourself!<br /> There could be many options in your life, but before this life you had no option. So live with it<br /> Life is like a dream. There&rsquo;s good times and there&rsquo;s nightmares. Life will only last so long, but your dreams will go on forever.<br /> &ldquo;Life isn&rsquo;t about waiting for the storm to pass. It&rsquo;s about dancing in the rain..!&rdquo;<br /> &ldquo;Enjoy what you can, endure what you must&rdquo;<br /> Love never ends, but life does.<br /> Things turn out best for people who make the best out of the way things turn out<br /> Love is like a rainbow: the more you see it, the more you realize what a miracle it really is.<br /> Life is about falling &ndash; Living is about getting backup.<br /> never have regrets, because at one point everything you did in life was exactly what you wanted<br /> &ldquo;And in the end, it&rsquo;s not the years in your life that count. It&rsquo;s the life in your years.&rdquo; <br /> Dreams are like stars&hellip;one blows up and another one gets brighter<br /> Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s called the present.<br /> You only live once, but if you work it right, once is enough.<br /> God, if I can&rsquo;t have what I want, let me want what I have.<br /> Life is like an onion: You peel it off one layer at a time, and sometimes you weep.

Favorite Quote:
&quot;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.&quot;<br /> -Elizabeth Kubler Ross
