I love quotes, these are my favorites: I am not a 'has been'. I am a 'will be'. ~ Ordinary riches can be stolen, real riches cannot. In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you.~ May the love hidden deep inside your heart find the love waiting in your dreams. May the laughter that you find in your tomorrow wipe away the pain you find in your yesterdays.~ Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.~ You can give your whole heart away and still have enough left over to be a wonderful human being.~ When a friend is in trouble, don't annoy him by asking if there is anything you can do. Think up something appropriate and do it.~ When you see someone without a smile, give them yours. ~ Friendship is the comfort that comes from knowing that even when you feel all alone, you aren't.~ Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.~ In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.~ ..perhaps all the dragons of our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us once beautiful and brave. Perhaps everything terrible is in its deepest being something helpless that wants help from us.~ When sadness comes, just sit by the side and look at it and say 'I am the watcher, I am not sadness' and see the difference. Immediately you have cut the very root of sadness. It is no more nourished. It will die of starvation. We feed these emotions by being identified with them.~ If someone you love hurts you - cry a river, build a bridge and get over it.~ No smile is as beautiful as the one that struggles through the tears.~ Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see.~ Follow your heart, but be quiet for a while first. Ask questions, then feel the answer. Learn to trust your heart.~ When it is dark enough, you can see the stars. (Never give up hope..)~ Fairy Tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.~ When the world says 'Give up' hope whispers 'Try it just one more time..' ~ Patience is waiting. Not passively waiting. That is laziness. But to keep going when the going is hard and slow - that is patience.~ Take chances, make mistakes. That's how you grow.~ Remember that everyone you meet is afraid of something, loves something, and has lost something. Everyone.~ The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in.~ I laugh, I love, I hope, I try, I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry. And I know you do the same things too. So we're really not that different, me and you.~ Love one another and you will be happy. And wherever you go, go with all your heart. It's as simple and as difficult as that. ~ Even if happiness forgets you a little bit, never completely forget about it. ~ Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.~ There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are messengers of overwhelming grief... and unspeakable love.~ As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend, you'll blame your new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take TOO MANY pictures, laugh TOO MUCH and love like you've never been hurt.. because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.
