life doesn't come with instructions....
we should do what is right, not what is easiest....

if you fully trust someone without any doubt, you will get one of two
                                                 results: a friend for life or a lesson for life....
if the only thing making us unhappy is our own thoughts, we change
                                                          ­                                                      them....
pa­tience is not the ability to wait, but the ability to keep a good attitude
                                                        ­                                         while waiting....
it is never too late to get your **** together..

AS WE GROW OKDER we learn that. . .
happiness is found when we stop comparing our life to others....
sometimes the wrong choices bring us to the right places....
if we change the way we look at things, the things we look at change.....

others should make no mistake between my personality and my attitude -
  my personality being who I am, my attitude depending on who they
                                                            ­                                                        are....
t­he body heals with time and the mind heals with laughter and the
                                                                ­                       spirit heals with joy....

AS WE GROW OLDER we learn that. . .
to be old and wise, we must first be young and stupid...
just because we you're breathing doesn't mean you're alive....

inside every older person is a younger person wondering what the hell
                                                            ­                                             happened....
youth is a gift of nature and age is a work of art....
rudeness is a weak persons imitation of strength....
time shows us what really matters....

happiness is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do but
                                                                ­            doesn't get you anywhere....
the meaning of life is to find our gift and the purpose of life is to
                                                              ­                                      give it away....
