Quotes

I like hearing great advice or a good quote.  So many wise and important quotes mean so much in times of joy, sorrow, celebrations, challenges to over come and just living life.




1. Life is either a great adventure or nothing.  by Helen Keller

2. "When you reach a fork in the road take it." Yogi Berra

3. “Dance as though no one is watching you. Love as though you have never been hurt before. Sing as though no one can hear you. Live as though heaven is on earth.” by William W. Purkey

4. "Meeting you was fate, becoming your friend was a choice, but falling in love with you I had no control over.” unknown

5.  
"Life is way too precious & beautiful to let anyone hurt me, make me sad or feel worthless, take my happiness away." Janice Peurrung

6.  "Sometimes you eat the bear and sometimes the bear eats you" unknown but heard this a lot from my tour guide Stephen when I traveled through Europe in my early 20's.  



7. "I just think with my heart" Kate Field


8.  "With Love you find strength, with passion we find joy, in our lives we persevere, we keep going we can fly" Lori Field Peurrung.


9.  "Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious ambiguity.  Gilda Radner


10.  I've always liked the serenity prayer and never knew the author Reinhold Niebuhr wrote this extended version.  


      God, grant us the...
Serenity to accept things we cannot change,
Courage to change the things we can, and the
Wisdom to know the difference
Patience for the things that take time
Appreciation for all that we have, and
Tolerance for those with different struggles
Freedom to live beyond the limitations of our past ways, the
Ability to feel your love for us and our love for each other and the
Strength to get up and try again even when we feel it is hopeless.
