Random Quotes About Life

angel on Jun-4-2009
  • Time is a companion that goes with us on a journey. It reminds us to cherish each moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we have lived.
  • Courage, it would seem, is nothing less than the power to overcome danger, misfortune, fear, injustice, while continuing to affirm inwardly that life with all its sorrows is good; that everything is meaningful even if in a sense beyond our understanding; and that there is always tomorrow.
  • If I can stop one heart from breaking, if I can ease one life the aching, Or cool one pain, Or help one fainting robin, Unto his nest again, I shall not live in vain.
  • Love doesn’t make the world go ’round; love is what makes the ride worthwhile.
  • The life I touch for good or ill will touch another life, and that in turn another, until who knows where the trembling stops or in what far place my touch will be felt.
  • Nothing else matters much — not wealth, nor learning, nor even health — without this gift: the spiritual capacity to keep zest in living. This is the creed of creeds, the final deposit and distillation of all important faiths: that you should be able to believe in life.
  • Be glad of life because it gives you the chance to love, to work, to play, and to look up at the stars.
  • Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
  • A garden is always a series of losses set against a few triumphs, like life itself.
  • Life is a train of moods like a string of beads; and as we pass through them they prove to be many colored lenses, which paint the world their own hue, and each shows us only what lies in its own focus.
  • The principle of life is that life responds by corresponding; your life becomes the thing you have decided it shall be.

Rainy Weekend

angel on Jun-3-2009

I feel really tired today. We went on a trip last weekend and the traveling took 2 hours. I think it’s still taking it’s toll on me now… We went to this beach resort. It wasn’t our original destination. We were going to an island, but since the weather wasn’t good, we opted to take the safer route and settled on this beach resort on Yapsonville. On the beach, there were stone ruins, building constructions, industrial supplies scattered along the corner, hammocks and coco trees, a videoke area, and several cottages… All in all, it was a nice place, but it rained, so I didn’t get to enjoy the area that much. Oh well… at least I got a few good photos.
