A great pleasure in life is doing what
people say you cannot do.

Accept the challenges of life
so that you may feel the exhilaration of victory.

you could be the only Bible
some people ever read.

Count your age by friends, not years.

Dance like there's nobody watching,
love like you'll never get hurt,
sing like there's nobody listening,
live like there's heaven on earth.
~~~
Don't dream your life,
live your dreams.

Don't look...you might see.
Don't think...you might learn.
Don't walk...you might stumble.
Don't run...you might fall.
Don't live....you might die.
~~~
Don't measure life by the amount of breathless moments
but by the moments that take your breath away.
~~~
Don't subject your life on other peoples pleasures.

Don't take life serious. It's not permanent.
Don't take life too seriously....no one comes out of it alive !
~~~
Don't try too hard,
the best things come
when you least expect them.
~~~
Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die today.
Embrace the mystery of all you can be.
~~~
Encouragement is like premium gas.
It helps take the knocks out of living.
~~~
Enjoy life, there is plenty of time to be dead.
~~~
Enjoy the little things in life,
for one day you may look back
and find they were the big things.

Everyday from this day on is a gift -- use it well.
Every person's life is a fairy tale written by God's fingers.

the mere sense of living is joy enough.

For long life, inhale each time you exhale.

Having choices in life is a privilege,
making the right choices is an responsibility.

How you live and how you fly,
the smiles you give and tears you'll cry,
All you touch and all you see,
is all your life will ever be.
~~~
I hope life isn't a big joke....
because I don't get it !!

I live for today..... I'm just a day behind !!
I may not be perfect, but I'll always be me.
I plan on living forever. So far...so good !!
~~~
I take life one step at a time....
unless the dog's been in the yard !
~~~
I used to have a handle on life; then it broke !
IF - is the biggest part of the word LIFE.
If contentment is the theme...life's melody is sweet.
If life deals you a lemon, make lemonade.
~~~
If life gives you lemons, make lemonade,
but if life gives you pickles,
you might as well give up
because pickleade is disgusting !
~~~
If life not a game why are there so many players?
If life were easy, then it would be boring.
~~~
If one attempts to walk the straight and narrow path of life,
it may be advisable to remain thin and sober.

~~~
If you come to a wall in your life,
that is so high you cannot get over it
and so low you cannot get under it....
just go around.

If you die before you "fulfilled" your life,
it doesn't matter anyway....RIGHT ?

In three words I can sum up everything
I've learned about life:
It goes on.
(Robert Frost)
~~~
Isn't today the last day of your life, so far?
~~~
It doesn't matter where you go in life,
it's who you have beside you
that makes it worthwhile.
~~~
It is not the length of life, but depth of life.
~~~
It's a hard life but somebody has to live it.
~~~
Learn the difference between holding a hand
and chaining a soul.
Learn that love isn't learning but lending support.
Begin to accept your defeats with the grace of an adult,
not the grief of a child.
Decide to build your roads on today
for tomorrow's ground is too uncertain.
Help someone plant a garden
instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
Learn that YOU have the strength to endure and
that you really do have self worth.
This is life's lessons.
~~~
Let your life lightly dance on the edges of time,
like dew on the tip of a leaf.
~~~
Life ain't fair, if it was they'd sell tickets.
Life being at birth, the rest is up to the imagination.
(infoism)
Life can make you bitter or better...choose BETTER !
