living

To live, is to suffer. To survive, well, that's to find meaning in the suffer.

As exciting, difficult, and memorable as our past can be, there comes a time when we have to get on with living.

I'd think it strange that the boardinghouse attracted both him and me, but that's what cheap places do -- draw in people with no money. An apartment of my own was unthinkable at that time of my life, and even if I'd found an affordable one it wouldn't have satisfied my fundamental need to live in a communal past, or what I imagined the past to be like: a world full of antiques.

Some people simply seem to know how to live. They know when to seize the day, when to go with the flow, and when to row for dear life.

Love is the bee that carries the pollen from one heart to another.

I have leveled with the girls - from Anchorage to Amarillo.I tell them that all marriages are happyIt's the living together afterward that's tough.I tell them that a good marriage is not a gift,It's an achievement.that marriage is not for kids It takes guts and maturity.It separates the men from the boys and the women from the girls.I tell them that marriage is tested dily by the ability to compromise.Its survival can depend on being smart enough to know what's worth fighting about.Or making an issue of or even mentioning.Marriage is giving - and more important, it's forgiving.And it is almost always the wife who must do these things.Then, as if that were not enough, she must be willing to forget what she forgave.Often that is the hardest part.Oh, I have leveled all right.If they don't get my message, Buster,It's because they don't want to get it.Rose-colored glasses are never made in bifocalsBecause nobody wants to red the small print in dreams.

Warning: Before beginning an program of physical inactivity, consult your doctor. Sedentary living is abnormal and dangerous to your health.

It takes the whole of life to learn how to live, and--what will perhaps make you wonder more--it takes the whole of life to learn how to die.

I like having options, alternate lives unlived but always possible.

The dead can be even more frustrating to deal with than are many of the living, which is astonishing when you consider it's the living who run the Department of Motor Vehicles.

But this is a thing that I know--to live with fear is not to live at all. A man will die every moment he is afraid.

Creativity is a way of living life, no matter what our vocation, or how we earn our living. Creativity is not limited to the arts...

Only those who have tasted the bitterest of the bitter can become people who stand out among others. -Guanchang Xianxing Ji

My life wasn__ horrible, but I didn__ see any passionate reason to love it.

New Yorkers love the bigness -- the skyscrapers, the freedom, the lights. But they also love it when they can carve out some smallness for themselves. When the guy at the corner store knows which newspaper you want. When the barista has your order ready before you open your mouth. When you start to recognize the people in your orbit, and you know that, say, if you're waiting for the subway at eight fifteen on the dot, odds are the redhead with the red umbrella is going to be there too.

I tell myself I__ fine on my own, but am I? No friends to fall back on, no relationships, no support. Left to my own devices, I have no devices.

My Favourite hobby is to sit still and convert oxygen into Carbon Dioxide. Love to Live.

Hate destroys, love builds: be a creator. Fear closes, love opens: be an advocate for life. Guilt stagnates, love permits: be a peaceful warrior. Anger takes away, love gives: be a foundation for life. A defeatist attitude makes its own bed while love has the power to design its very own house.
