List: Favorite sayings, Favorite quotes and Words of wisdom

FAVORITE SAYING:

"It's better to regret something you did, rather than something you didn't do"

                         
(This just adds to my favorite saying)....

"If you are 19 years old & lie in bed for one full year & don't do
one productive thing, you will turn 20 years old. If I am 87 years  
old & stay in bed for a year & never do anything I will turn 88.

Anybody can grow older. That doesn't take any talent or ability. The
idea is to grow up by always finding opportunity in change. Have no  
regrets."

                                                   Story of Life

We live in a time when it is hard to speak from the heart. Our lives
are smothered by a thousand trivialities and the poetry of our
spirits is silenced by the thoughts and cares of daily affairs. The
song that lives in our heart, the song that we have waited to share,
the song of being a man, is silent. We find ourselves full of advice,
but devoid of belief.
                      - K. Nerburn




"A friend is one to whom one may pour out all the contents of one's
heart, chaff and grain together, knowing that the gentlest of hands
will take and sift it, keep what is worth keeping and, with the      
breath of kindness, blow the rest away."
       
           ~ Arabian Proverb ~


THINK ABOUT THIS WHEN YOU ARE HAVING A ROUGH
TIME...

Are you a carrot, an egg, or a coffee bean?
