Quote Me A Piece Of Writing That You Really, Really Love :)

“That's the problem with drinking, I thought, as I poured myself a drink. If something bad happens you drink in an attempt to forget; if something good happens you drink in order to celebrate; and if nothing happens you drink to make something happen.”
so true!

Not that I don't believe in God. I respect those who devoted their faith are living happier.
This next quote sums up what I feel sometimes when we talk about religion.
I'm not attacking your beliefs, not at all. Just venting through I quote I read.

“When his life was ruined, his family killed, his farm destroyed, Job knelt down on the ground and yelled up to the heavens, "Why god? Why me?" and the thundering voice of God answered, There's just something about you that pisses me off.”
Stephen King
 
Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways. For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee
, (Psalm 128:1-2, King David, Holy Bible).
 
“Becoming fearless isn't the point. That's impossible.
It's learning how to control your fear, and how to be free from it.”
 
Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways. For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee
, (Psalm 128:1-2, King David, Holy Bible).
This post is much easier to read and interpret. sometimes the quotes you post on top of images contain words that are so close to each other its difficult to understand them. also the images take up more space and at times make the text difficult to decipher.

There is categorically no issue with posting quotes from any religion. if you would like to start your own thread that contains your favorite religious quotes feel free to do so.
 
"Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption," (Psalm 130:7, King David, Holy Bible).

Does this quote refer to the real status that Israel is nowadays? I mean, how that applies to their lives today. I believe this was written a long time ago. Sometimes I try to understand this quotes so I can see how I relate to them. I feel that if you put your personal thoughts about them it will make them a lot more interesting to read. Not that I'm against your beliefs - I simply want to understand better what you mean when you say things that are in the Bible. How do you interpret them in certain cases.
 
“I believe in God, but not as one thing, not as an old man in the sky. I believe that what people call God is something in all of us. I believe that what Jesus and Mohammed and Buddha and all the rest said was right. It's just that the translations have gone wrong.”
John Lennon
 
“When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive—to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love—then make that day count!”

“Morning is an important time of day, because how you spend your morning can often tell you what kind of day you are going to have.”

"I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation," (Psalm 13:5, King David, Holy Bible).
 
The Festivity is what is waited for, what is expected. What I expect of the promised presence is an unheard-of totality of pleasures, a banquet; I rejoice like the child laughing at the sight of the mother whose mere presence heralds and signifies a plenitude of satisfactions ... and whatever becomes of me, I can never say that I have not tasted the purest joys of life.

“If the world were merely seductive, that would be easy. If it were merely challenging, that would be no problem. But I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.”




 
all we have to do is understand that we're all here for a reason and to commit ourselves to that. then we can laugh at our sufferings, large and small, and walk fearlessly, aware that each step has meaning.
 
"The first step on the road to REAL wellness is to give up any thought that your life has been ordained as part of some mysterious grand plan. It hasn’t!"

"Meaninglessness is liberating. It frees us from the stifling need to conform to the drudgery of daily life. It quiets the incessant ranting of religious types who believe worship of invisible gods today guarantee a heaven-filled life tomorrow. Details of life after death in Valhalla or paradise by any name are not available.

The stupidity of this idea, in the face of overwhelming data supporting life as an accident, is without parallel and consigns the intimidated to a shadowy life of obedience. This constitutes a state so far from REAL wellness, it could form its own black hole."
 
“Real isn't how you are made,' said the Skin Horse. 'It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real.'

'Does it hurt?' asked the Rabbit.

'Sometimes,' said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. 'When you are Real you don't mind being hurt.'

'Does it happen all at once, like being wound up,' he asked, 'or bit by bit?'

'It doesn't happen all at once,' said the Skin Horse. 'You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand.”
― Margery Williams, The Velveteen Rabbit
 
You will find meaning in life only if you create it. It is not lying there somewhere behind the bushes, so you can go and you search a little bit and find it. It is not there like a rock that you will find. It is a poetry to be composed, it is a song to be sung, it is a dance to be danced.
