One is roots. The other is wings."

" You've got to sing like nobody's listening,
You've got to love like you'll never get hurt,
You've got to dance like nobody's watching,
You've got to live like it's Heaven on Earth."
" To see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild flower
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour"

What is essential is invisible to the eye..."

"Some people come into our lives and quickly go
Some stay for a while and leave footprints on our hearts...
And we are never, ever the same.."
People are like stained-glass windows.
They sparkle and shine when the sun is out,
but when the darkness sets in,
their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.
Elizabeth K�bler-Ross
Every man dies.
Not every man truly lives.

A HUNDRED YEARS FROM NOW
...it will not matter what my bank account was,
the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove..
...but the world may be different
because I was important in the life of a child.
Kathy Davis
If you were going to die soon
and had only one phone call you could make,
who would you call and what would you say?
And why are you waiting?
Stephen Levine
Ring the bells that still can ring.
Forget your perfect offering.
There is a crack in everything.
That's how the light gets in.
Leonard Cohen
Teach us to delight in simple things,
And mirth that has no bitter springs;
Forgiveness free of evil done,
And love to all men 'neath the sun.
Rudyard Kipling
