Heart

Occasionally in life there are those moments of unutterable fulfillment which cannot be completely explained by those symbols called words. Their meanings can only be articulated by the inaudible language of the heart. -Martin Luther King Jr.

Rain


"The best thing one can do when it’s raining is to let it rain."
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 

Steve

‎"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary." -Steve Jobs

Change

“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square hole. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.” ~Apple Computer Inc.

Body

"Take note: You have a body, but you are not your body.
You have a mind, but you are not your mind. You have emotions, 
but you are not your emotions. You are the being behind it all, 
able to choose what you want, able to direct it all."
--Joe Vitale, Life's Missing Instruction Manual, 2006.

Weight

"sometimes i can hear my bones straining under the weight of all the lives i'm not living" jonathan safran foer 

Now

"When we let go of yearning for the future, preoccupation with 
the past, and strategies to protect the present, there is 
nowhere left to go but where we are. To connect with the 
present moment is to begin to appreciate the beauty of true 
simplicity." 
--Jack Kornfield
