Life is made up of years that mean nothing and moments that mean it all. You're born, you die, and in between you make a lot of mistakes.
Have you ever heard a song from so long ago with so many memories tied to it that it made you cry? And didn't you with that you could go back into time when everything seemed so much simpler and carefree? Those are songs that are the soundtrack of our lives... the ones that bring back childhood memories, best friends, first love, first heartbreak... the memories. Every new day is another chance to change your life. The hardest years in life are those between ten and seventy.
The times in life, that seems to be the worst, always turn out for the best! Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself. Take chances. Tell the truth. Date someone totally wrong for you. Say no. Spend all your cash! Fall in love. Get to know someone random. Be random. Say I love you. Sing out loud. Laugh at a stupid joke. Cry. Get revenge. Apologize. Tell someone how much they mean to you. Tell the asshole what you feel. Let someone know what they're missing. Laugh til your stomach hurts. LIVE LIFE! If you can't solve it, it isn't a problem - it's reality. And sometimes reality is the hardest thing to understand and the thing that takes the longest to realize. But once it hits you in the face you'll never forget it. It will always be there in your memories and sometimes that is the best way to look at it. Life is all about risks and it requires you to jump. Don't be a person who has to look back and wonder what they would have or could have had. No one waits forever. Sometimes the littlest thing in life changes something forever and there will be times when you wish you can go back to how things used to be but you just can't because things have changed so much. You only live once, so do everything twice.
In your life, you meet people. Some you never think about again. Some, you wonder what happened to them. There are some that you wonder if they ever think about you. And then there are some you wish you never had to think about again. But you do. There are no mistakes in life, only lessons. The greatest risk in life is not taking one. Tomorrow is a blank page, just waiting to be filled with your dreams... All you have to do is be yourself and live the story of your own unique life. Be proud. Be confident. And most of all be happy. The journey in between what you once were and who you are now becoming is where the dance of life really takes place. Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate you friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is. I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned the hard way that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, or end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's to happen next. There's a point in life when you start to realize who matter; who never did; and who always will. In life God doesn't give you the people you want, instead He gives you the people you need. To teach you, to hurt you, to love you, and make you exactly the way you should be.
Don't fear failure so much that you refuse to try new things. The saddest summary of a life contains three descriptions: could have, might have, and should have. Rock bottom is good solid ground, and a dead end street is just a place to turn around. Cherish your yesterdays and dream your tomorrows, but most importantly, don't forget to live your today's. Sometimes you gotta stop and remember that your not gonna live forever. Be young, thing smart, stay true and just follow your heart. Half of life is fucking up - the other half is dealing with it. Every story has an end, but in life every ending is just a new beginning. If you die you're completely happy and your soul somewhere lives on. I'm not afraid of dying. Total peace after death, becoming someone else is the best hope I've got.---Kurt Cobain Somewhere along the course of life, you learn about yourself and realize there should never be regrets, only a lifelong appreciation of the choices you've made. Eventually all the pieces will fall into place, until then... laugh at the confusion, live for the moment and know that everything happens for a reason.
So I'm just thinking about how much I don't want my life to be boring. There is so much I want to do and so many places I want to go - but I don't really think it's ever gonna happen. I just don't wanna be one of those people who work somewhere they hate or live somewhere they don't want to live. But I feel like I'm gonna live here forever and not get a chance to see everything I want to see. I feel like my dreams are to unrealistic.---Moonstar_003 Someone asked me, the other day, that if I could change five things about my life, what would I change? My answer: nothing this is who I am, who I'm meant to be. I love being me; even when I'm feeling crappy and I hate myself I wouldn't change a thing.---punkyfairydude The hardest part of life is having to let go of your fears, and facing the facts: you can't always get what you want, life isn't a box of chocolates, and your favorite TV series will always have a crappy ending. When life locks you in your room, simply go out the window.
Once in a while, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale. As time goes by, life has a way of rearranging itself. People enter your life, and inevitably, they leave as well. Things have a tendency to happen that can turn your world upside down. You’ll come to realize eventually, that even though things are different, you are as well. Life isn't about keeping score. It's not about how many people call you and it's not about who you've dated, are dating, or haven't dated at all. It isn't about who you've kissed, what sport you play, or which guy or girl likes you. It's not about your shoes or your hair or the color of your skin or where you live or go to school. In fact, it's not about grades, money, clothes, or colleges that accept you or not. Life isn't about if you have lots of friends, or if you are alone, and it's not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. Life just isn't about that. But life is about who you love and who you hurt. It's about how you feel about yourself. It's about trust, happiness, and compassion. Life is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance, and building confidence. It's about what you say and what you mean. It's about seeing people for who they are and not what they have. Most of all, it is about choosing to use your life to touch someone else's in a way that could never have been achieved otherwise. These choices are what life's about.
We can never turn back the pages of time, though we may wish to relive a happy moment, or say goodbye just one last time, we never can, because the sands of time continue to fall, and we can't turn the hourglass over. Never forget yesterday, But always live for today... Cuz you never know what tomorrow can bring, Or what it can take away... Tears are sometimes an inappropriate response to death. When a life has been lived completely honestly, completely successfully, or just completely, the correct response to death's perfect punctuation mark is a smile. Not a second passes... When you're not on our minds... Your love we will never forget... The hurt will ease in time... It's just hard to lose someone, no matter how much or little it meant at the time. Sometimes they take people, and they don't say why, sometimes people leave and they never say goodbye, sometimes there are no second chances to say I love you, sometimes there are no next times, sometimes you lose someone and you feel like your heart has followed them to heaven and sometimes there is just nothing you can do to make the tears stop.
Sometimes, no matter how much faith we have, we lose people. But you never forget them. And sometimes, it's those memories that give us the strength to go on. Sometimes you have to forgive someone just because you want them in your life. If it happens, God lets it happen, and when we say, I don't understand, God replies, I don't care. --The Green Mile, book 6 Contemplation often makes life miserable. We should act more, think less, and stop watching ourselves live. It's hard to accept, but you can't change the past. You can't go back and manipulate things to the way you wanted them to happen. Because life'd be meaningless and boring and just not worth living. But you can change the future and that's a beautiful thing about life. Yes, you will make mistakes. And yes, you will have bad days - but as long as you let the past go, you'll have such a gorgeous and bright future ahead of you. Knowing that things were meant to happen. Knowing that each day you will learn something so that you keep growing to be a better person. Life is like a rope, twined in all its complexities and yet weaved into one marvelous stream that you have the chance you use something amazing from. So grab hold of it.
People change its a part of life, but sometimes its easier to hold on to the memories of who they were... rather then to realize who they have become... Life doesn't hurt until you have time to yourself to think about how things have changed, who you've lost along the way, and how much of it is your fault. Sometimes there are things in our life that aren't meant to stay. Sometimes change may not be what we want. Sometimes change is what we really need. And sometimes saying goodbye is the hardest thing you think you'll ever have to do, but sometimes it's saying 'hello again' that breaks you down and makes you the most vulnerable person you'll ever know. Sometimes change is too much to bear, but most of the time change is the only thing saving your life. REMEMBER: WHATEVER HAPPENS, HAPPENS FOR A REASON. If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it. Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO- HOO what a ride!" Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been but also where you're going. If you have ever lost someone very important to you, then you already know how it feels, and if you haven't, you cannot possibly imagine it. --- Lemony Snicket At times I wish I could change the past... but sometimes the past changes you. Some things in life are either taken way to seriously or not serious enough. So why worry so much about our everyday problems. I mean there is only so much time to be alive but plenty of time to be dead. So live every day like it is your last. Take way to many pictures, laugh to hard and love with all your heart. Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass... It is all about dancing in the rain! Things happen in your life that will not go your way, they will not have the ending you hoped for and you will probably be dissapointed... but don't try and change these things... instead... remember them for next time.
Life comes without guarantees except... Laughing will brighten your day, smiling will enhance your eyes, and falling in love will change your life. We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm, and adventure. There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open. I used to think that death was the hardest thing to overcome. It's not. It's hard comparable really. Death is final. You watch the casket be lowered into the ground and you mourn, but you eventually get over it. It can take years and it hurts like hell, but it's final. that person is gone and there is no fear of a repeat. With attempted suicide there is no finality. Nothing hurts more than someone you love trying to end their own life. Nothing compares. --- jeneveve87 Heaven's not a place that you go when you die it's that moment in life when you actually feel alive. The sun is somewhere shining even when it rains
It's not how tragically we suffer but how miracously we live. When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory be comes a treasure. Perhaps they are not stars in the sky, but rather openings where our loved ones shine down to let us know they are happy. Most of us go to our grave with our music still inside of us. Life and death are balanced on the edge of a razor. I believe Disney movies hold the key to life. They hold every answer, if we only took the time to look. We can learn more from that talking crab in the Little Mermaid than we ever could in this corrupted world. And more than anything I believe in happy endings. --- jeneveve The sun's gonna shine and the rain's gonna fall, but that's life so dance in the puddles and bathe in the sun. At the end of the day, just smile and it will all be okay. It takes both rain and sunshine to make a rainbow. When it seems like everything is wrong and will never be right again remember even the darkest nights must give way to day. There can be no rainbow without a cloud and a storm. May your life be like a roll of toilet paper... long and useful. Life is too short so... Kiss Longer... Laugh Harder... And smile Sweeter...
If I could relive my life, I wouldn't. Cause everything I've done, I've never once regretted doing them. And everything I am is everything I was meant to be. --- Alice1989 It doesn't matter what you write about somebody after there gone, it's how you treat somebody while there still there. Life is like a coin, you can spend it anyway you want but you can only spend it once. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment, and making the best of it without knowing what will happen next. Be thankful for hard times in your life. Try not to look at them as bad things, but as opportunities to grow and learn. God saw you getting tired, and a cure was not to be. So he put his arms around you, and whispered, "Come with me." With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating. Hard working hands at rest. God broke our hearts, to prove to us, He only takes the best. From this point on in my life nothing is ever going to be the same. Nothing can ever be the same. I don't want anything to ever be the same. Life isn't supposed to make you feel happy. It isn't meant to make you feel sad either. It's just there to make you feel. A few of the best things in life... Laughing so hard your face hurts. Midnight phone calls that last for hours. Laughing for absolutely no reason at all. Friends. Knowing that somebody misses you. Not everything's gonna be picture perfect... Things sometimes take time and have rough times to get through... Before you can get there but if you give up on things you want, everything you've gone through ends up being completely worthless. Sometimes we need to stop analyzing the past, stop planning the future, stop figuring out precisely how we feel, stop deciding with our minds exactly what we want our hearts to feel, sometimes we just have to go with the flow and just enjoy life. Sometimes things happen in our lives that tear us apart inside, but if we don't learn to look past them and see the sun shining above the clouds, we will forever be standing in the rain. Just hit play and watch my life fall apart. Just when you think things can't get any worse, they do. I've learned that life is like hour glass sand. Sooner or later, everything hits rock bottom, but all you have to do is be patient and wait for something to turn everything back around.
Everything in life is temporary, because everything changes. That's why it takes great courage to love, knowing it might end anytime but having the faith it will last forever. Don't let the darkness of the past cover the brightness of the future.
Sometimes our trusting hand that guides us through life won't always be there, and that's the time when you really grow up and face life for the first time. But that hand will always be close by. When life is too crazy, and things are moving too fast, look to the constant stars... and remember, like them, our love can last. Ever wonder how your life would be right now if you had the power to go back and change even just one small thing? Life is not about what I've done, what I should've done, what I could've done... it's about what I can do and what I will do. Every passing moment is a chance to turn it all around. Life is full of surprises, but you have to open them hoping for the very best. Experience is the worst teacher; it gives the test before presenting the lesson. So many times, life in unpredictable. You'll have bad days, and good, and really in the end, the only thing that matters is whose still there by your side. |
