&ldquo;I believe in everything until it&#039;s disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it&#039;s in your mind. Who&#039;s to say that dreams and nightmares aren&#039;t as real as the here and now?&rdquo; <br /> ― John Lennon

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.

&quot;If you can&#039;t understand my silence, then you don&#039;t deserve my words.&quot;<br /> &quot;Love is like the wind, you can&#039;t always see it, but you can feel it.&quot;<br /> &quot;Sometimes all you need is ten seconds of insane courage.&quot;
