Looking through my 2008 diary, I come across quotes I picked up during the year.
The ones that spoke to me enough for me to write it down in my little black book.
They are reminders and summaries of lessons I learned through all my encounters throughout the year.
It tells of the books I have read, the places I have been, the people I have met and my theories for life.
I would like to share some of my favorites with you.
"Life, if you keep chasing it so hard, will drive you to death.
Time - when pursued like a bandit - will behave like one;
Always remaining one country or one room ahead of you, changing its' name and hair color to elude.
At some point, you have to stop because it won't. You have to admit that you can't catch it.
At some point, you got to let it go and sit still and allow contentment to come to you." - Eat, Pray, Love by Liz Gilbert.
"The Doctor of the future will not prescribe drugs; but will empower
the patient with knowledge of nutrition and diet. Thereby prescribing
self-healing..." Life Cafe, HK
"A Mother is the truest friend we have, when trails heavy and sudden,
fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when
friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble
thickens around us, still she will cling to the clouds of darkness, and
cause peace to return to our hearts."
- Washington Irving.
"Don't think, don't ask, just DAnce!
Move through Life like a drop of water.
Falling, flowing, rising, drifting. Free your boundaries.
Fly, Plunge, Run, Stop!
But always mirror the Light." - The Mirror Cards.
"The premise of objective journalism is to record and relay the truth
of things, as if truth were out there, hanging around, waiting for the
reporter to show up."
"Happiness comes more from loving than being loved; and often when our affection seems wounded it is only our vanity bleeding.
To Love, and to be hurt often, and to love again - this is the Brave and Happy Life.
- J. Buchrose
"People don't care how much you know, until they know how much you care.
- Anonymous
Here's wishing you the very best in 2009.
Namaste.
