"I will not die an unlived life. I will not live in fear of falling or
catching fire. I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my living to open me, to make me less afraid, more accessible, to loosen my heart until it becomes a wing, a torch, a promise. I choose to risk my significance; to live so that which comes to me as seed goes to the next as blossom and that which comes to me as blossom, goes on as fruit."
" Sometimes we only strive to ever get better in our lives. The important thing is not that we reach the ultimate goal but that we keep traveling the journey, one that is now so different from when we began it."
" We mustn't run away when things get hard. We should believe in ourselves and always fight it out. Only then will we achieve our dreams, as success belongs to those who believe."
Happiness is a state of mind, therefore the real source of happiness lies in the mind, not in external circumstances.
If our mind is pure and peaceful we shall be happy, regardless of our external conditions, but if it is impure and unpeaceful we shall never find happiness, no matter how much we try to change our external circumstances.
Gotta say,I absolutely LoooVE Replies #'s22 & 23!!!!! How True!!!!This was in my 'Daily bread'book 4 yesterday. IT IS BETTER TO BITE YOUR TONGUE,THAN TO LET IT BITE SOMEONE ELSE! I think many people in this world,would definitely benefit if they took that advice!!!! LOL,LOL!!
Happiness is not in our circumstances but in ourselves. It is not something we see, like a rainbow, or feel, like the heat of a fire. Happiness is something we are.

" Each day celebrate life! Let memories be the driving force for your will to succeed. Never look back on your yesterdays as a desire to want what was, but rather accept what is now as it is now. The best days of your life are lying ahead of you. Live every day with great joy, celebrating now, while all along pressing forward with a smile knowing it only gets better by each blessing moment. Lay down your worries, fears, doubts and despair. Enjoy the gift of life while you're still here. It only gets better."

That's reason enough right there. Ha!
