^ Gotta say I don't like that one. Seems very negative to me. "Wish you were better" implies telling somebody that things are hard because they are not good enough without the usual inspirational twist your chosen quotes involve. Wishing for things gets you nowhere. Changing things, working on improving things, that is how things get better.
 
It was incomplete, but yes, the phrase "wish you were better" is not a good one. But in this context it refers to myself.
I could handle this not because it had be be easier but because I could handle it. Something like that.

“A friend is someone who knows all about you and still loves you.”

“It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche
 
If you don't know the kind of person I am
and I don't know the kind of person you are
a pattern that others made may prevail in the world
and following the wrong god home we may miss our star.

“Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.”
 
It's love,' they say. You touch the right one and a whole half of the universe wakes up, a new half.


Kids: they dance before they learn there is anything that isn't music.
 
"Now here, you see, it takes all the running you can do, merely to stay in the same place."

~ The Red Queen to Alice, Through the Looking Glass

Edit: Where did I get Dorothy from? Hahaha, oops. I mixed up Lewis Carrol's stuff with Wizard of Oz :)

The irony of commitment is that it’s deeply liberating — in work, in play, in love. The act frees you from the tyranny of your internal critic, from the fear that likes to dress itself up and parade around like rational hesitation. To commit is to remove your head as the barrier to your life.

Too true!

"There is no short cut to achievement. Life requires thorough preparation - veneer isn't worth anything."
George Washington Carver

I'm so into planning its almost embarrassing :o%)
 
“When we least expect it, life sets us a challenge to test our courage and willingness to change; at such a moment, there is no point in pretending that nothing has happened or in saying that we are not yet ready. The challenge will not wait. Life does not look back. A week is more than enough time for us to decide whether or not to accept our destiny.”

I'm not sure about the "week" to adopt to change, sometimes it's a second sometimes it's decades..


"Just when I think I have learned the way to live, life changes."
Hugh Prather


I've gone parttime at work. Funny that all my achievement goals have been work focused and not me focused - given the space..well I'm a little lost. Now I'm opening up to that and what else I can accomplish. It's strange!


Thank you Engladz for the greeting. Man and me doing well.
 
How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday in your life you will have been all of these.
