life-and-living

Just because I'm young, that doesn't mean I don't have a point.

If you do not conquer self, you will be conquered by self.

There was no burger so soggy that he would not eat it. No tequila so mean that he would not drink it. No car so covered with birdshit and rust that he would not drive it around town (and if it were a convertible, he'd have the top down, even in rain, even in snow). There was no flag he would not desecrate, no true believer he would not mock, no song he wouldn't sign off-key, no dental appointment he wouldn't break, no child he wouldn't do tricks for, no old person he wouldn't help in from the cold, no moon he wouldn't lie under...

A new grace for a new life is what we need in the coming year.

Life is like a box of chocolates: You get through what little actual good stuff there is right away, then you constantly fool yourself into believing there's still something good in whatever's left.

Take a chance of your life, you're risking nothing in this planet.

I don't want to die while I still have beautiful reasons to die for.

As you begin to Awaken.. You discover yourself sitting in nature.. flowing like the river.. Trying to understand the purpose.. then realizing "Nature is Happening, that is its purpose".. You are just like the river flowing through nature.. Your purpose is to be like nature. Start Now.. in the precious moments.. for its the only time that exists.

Simplicity allows a measure of freedom which the complexities of modern life greedily consume _ freedom to think, to reflect, to create, to serve and be sincerely generous with our time and presence.

Standing at the edge of timeAlmost falling down to the dark abyssAs I near the end of mineI reminisce the things I will missThe smiles and laughterRunning around without a careThe time when my grin will never falterBeing so free, willing my soul to bareHeartaches, heartbreaks and tearsNow I know better and to myself I will never lieBecause in woe, I learned to love and never fearThose were the best and worst moments of my lifeAs the memories rush back to meI look down and now I feel relievedBecause when it is timeEverything will be fine when I leave

everything is absurd.1 man spends his life earning money which he then saves even though he has no children 2 leave it 2. another puts all his efforts into becoming famous so that he'll b remembered once dead, yet he doesn't believe in a survival of the soul that would give him knowledge of that fame. yet another wears himself out looking 4 things he doesn't even like.

Do not wait, there will never be a right time, start from where you stand.

Be youthful.

It takes all of our life to learn how to live, and _ something that may surprise you more _ it takes just as long to learn how to die.

Only those with tenacity can march forward in March

Do you ever feel like you've been waiting your entire life for a specific moment when it'll all make sense?

Ashes don't necessarily signify an end

Stay Alive in Your Own Life
