life-lesson

I can't assume responsibility for a man's infidelity, no more than I can take credit for his choice to remain faithful.

What I would like to say to you in conclusion is this: romance is the dessert. If you are hungry, you need to be working on the main meal - yourself. That means learning how to fulfill yourself first, and once you have achieved that, then you will be ready for dessert!" - Raeleen

I've allowed myself to lead this little life, when inside me there was so much more.

Most people miss their whole lives, you know. Listen, life isn't when you are standing on top of a mountain looking at a sunset. Life isn't waiting at the alter or the moment your child is born or that time you were swimming in a deep water and a dolphin came up alongside you. These are fragments. 10 or 12 grains of sand spread throughout your entire existence. These are not life. Life is brushing your teeth or making a sandwich or watching the news or waiting for the bus. Or walking. Every day, thousands of tiny events happen and if you're not watching, if you're not careful, if you don't capture them and make them COUNT, your could miss it. You could miss your whole life.

Happiness is your inherent nature. In the hustle and bustle of life, you have forgotten a part of yourself, and looking for it outside. Fill this void with happiness that is sustainable, not transitory; that illuminates your life and that of others, that is life giving and so natural.

Adversity has the same effect on a man that severe training has on the pugilist: it reduces him to his fighting weight.

On ambition, goal setting and competition - it doesn't matter if you lose, but you can't win if you don't play the game.

You may forsake a person, a family, some location of the heart, but scars and memories cannot be discarded like used clothing.

Never Say Never if you know you can do what you love don't give up.

My flaws and imperfections make me perfectly incomplete.

People are not as smart as you want them to be

No, love, in real life you can get all the way to death and never have finished one single story.

Sometimes I tend to worry too much and at the end of all the preoccupation nothing goes wrong.

Wisdom holds a candle to experience, but you've got to take the candle and walk alone.

The world is what YOU think of it, so think of it DIFFERENTLY and your life will change.

Life is like a game, once your piece is on the board there is no leaving until you have finished. It does not matter how you finished just that you pass the line...

He who does not value life does not deserve it.

We really don't experience the world fully, because we're half-asleep, doing things we automatically think we have to do.__nd facing death changes that?"Oh, yes. You strip away all that stuff and you focus on the essentials.
