what can you do?


You can run with it,


let it run your life,


or let it go and

think for the rest of your life

about what might have been."-Patch Adams

Happiness

Life is Good

"Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
 Life is beauty, admire it.
 Life is a dream, realize it.
 Life is a challenge, meet it.
 Life is a duty, complete it. 
Life is a game, play it.
 Life is a promise, fulfill it.
 Life is sorrow, overcome it. 
Life is a song, sing it.
 Life is a struggle, accept it.
 Life is a tragedy, confront it.
 Life is an adventure, dare it.
 Life is luck, make it. 
Life is too precious, do not destroy it.
 Life is life, fight for it." -Mother Teresa

A Special Kind of Charm

"You know what charm is: a way of getting the answer yes without having asked any clear question."-Albert Camus , The Fall  

Looking Beyond

" When one door of happiness closes, another one opens;  but often we look so long at the closed door that we do  not see the one which has been opened for us..." - Helen Keller
