[Quotable] Clouds Floating Through Life

A cloud does not know why it moves in just such a direction and at such a speed… It feels an impulsion… this is the place to go now.  But the sky knows the reasons and the patterns behind all clouds, and you will know, too, when you lift yourself high enough to see beyond horizons.  ~Richard Bach

[Quotable] Beauty at Dusk and Dawn

The true harvest of my daily life is somewhat as intangible and indescribable as the tints of morning or evening.  It is a little star dust caught, a segment of the rainbow which I have clutched.

~Henry David Thoreau~

Oh, Snap: Fortune Cookie Wisdom

In a modern day, 21st century world – good advice can come from literally anywhere and everywhere; we just need to be one with the universe to hear it.  To me, Fortune Cookie’s provide a unique,  thought provoking viewpoint on the way our world is currently functioning.  I don’t know about everyone else, but I actually save all of my fortunes in a little, embellished jar for safekeeping.  Nothing like going back through them and seeing how your world has shifted!

 

 

 

Quotable: The Measure of Success

image

“Success: To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition, to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”

– Ralph Waldo Emerson

Quotable: The Only People For Me

The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.
Jack Kerouac
