Notes.

A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts it will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.
-The Twits, Roald Dahl

Notes. About Life

"We are all personalities that grow and develop as a result of our experiences, relationships, thoughts, and emotions. We are the sum total of all the parts that go into the making of a life." -Dibs in Search of Self, Virginia M. Axline

Notes. Celebrate

That you are alive. That you won. That although you were beaten, you are still here. That you feel. That a hummingbird visited you. That the breeze carried the perfume of spring. That the car started and the breaks held. That the sunset was mauve and golden amber.
That the rose broke through at last and bloomed. That you cried. That you were remembered. That you remember. That the wind carried a message of hope. That you love. That you once loved. That all music and art were intended just for you. That you were right. That you forgave. That it rained and the rain forgave all of us. That you are human, after all.

- David Viscott

Notes.

"I am a true adorer of life, and if I can’t reach as high as the face of it, I plant my kiss somewhere lower down. Those who understand will require no further explanation."
-Henderson The Rain King, Saul Bellow

Notes.

"And there comes a time in your life when you realize that if you don’t take the opportunity to be happy, you may never get another chance again." - Empire Falls, Richard Russo


What I get from this quote is that we are all responsible for creating our own 'happy'. Many people go around daily, focused on blaming others for what they feel giving it too much power in their daily living. Some people thrive on transmitting negative energy and creating unnecessary drama. Misery loves company and I say don't invite it as a guest in your daily journey. Life is too short and difficult enough, so why not create happiness and joy every time you can.
