New Blog!

Well, I did it. I finally made a blog. Now the trick is to see how often I write in it. I'll keep this first one nice and short. Over the years I've collected a few of my favorite quotes, now this list isn't a complete one. It just happens to be the ones that have made it onto my computer. Check a few of them out if you'd like.


Quotes

On the trail of life, even the best hikers slip from time to time.

When you’re drowning in despair, stand up, it’s not as deep as you think it is.

Disability is only a state of mind.

Cherish the happy moments they only come so often.

Courage is getting up every morning; Bravery is getting up a different way.

The brave may not live forever but the cautious do not live at all.

Worry never fixes anything.

Happiness is activity.

A kiss without love is like a pretzel without any salt.      

Accept that some days you're the pigeon,
And some days you're the statue.

Always keep your words soft and sweet,
Just in case you have to eat them.

Always read stuff that will make you look good
Incase you die in the middle of it.
 
Drive carefully. It's not only cars that can be
Recalled by their maker.

If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.

It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply be kind to others.

Because then you won't have a leg to stand on.

Just get up and dance.

The second mouse gets the cheese.

When everything's coming your way,
You're in the wrong lane.

Birthdays are good for you.
The more you have, the longer you live.

But you may also be the world to one person.

Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.

A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.

“One life on this earth is all that we get, whether it is enough or not enough, and the obvious conclusion would seem to be that at the very least we are fools if we do not live it as fully and bravely and beautifully as we can.” - Frederick Buechne


Hopefully I can keep this up and learn to express myself through this page. Thank you.
