I am slowly coming to the conclusion that it's more important to learn to work with what you've got, under the circumstances you've been given, than wishing for different ones.

I realized that life doesn't work that way - that just because you have dreams and make plans, it doesn't mean that they will come true.

I'm not mad. I already told you that. We all have mistakes in our past... and our future. It's a fact of life.

What's happened has happened. You can't change the past. All you can do is work on making a brighter future.

Not everyone will like what you have to say. Not everyone will like what you do. Social networking is a garbage pile waiting for rats to feed. Pointless nothings of your everyday lives. Still the...

There's the parent you want and the parent you have.

Let nothing human be foreign to me

There isn't any hell or heaven except for how we relate to our world. Hell is just resistance to life.

You cannot be happy if you constantly compete with others for public approval.

The moment we accept each other as Human beings, we shall find harmony.

Sometimes the things that happen can be changed. Sometimes they cannot. Which time is this?

Life was like that - there would always be something scratching at the door. And whatever was scratching would just scratch and scratch until you opened the door.

Sadly, like many times in life, including winning the lottery, we don't always get what we wish for.

Our society shuns people for being a bright light in the world. Sometimes if you are too futuristic people do not like how revolutionary you are

Study yourself. Become your own mentor and best friend. When you are suffering stay at the bottom until you find out who you are. Let the storms come and pass. How you walk through the fire says a lot...

I think the highest forgiveness is to accept that creation is thoroughly tangled, with every possible quality given outlet for expression. People need to accept once and for all that there is only one...

We, at times, criticize ourselves for making immature choices. But if you think with real compassion you will find that those were the right choices at that point of time. Everything happens for a...

Trying to change someone to suit your desires is a setup for disappointment.

It is a healthy approach not to expect persons to turn out precisely how you would have wished.

I often think of life as a great darkened room with a mammoth - sized tapestry fastened to a stone wall. I believe true peace can be achieved not in viewing the whole tapestry, but in accepting...

I love everything about you Kacey, because the best thing in life is finding someone who knows your flaws, mistakes, difficulties, and still think you are bad - ass and loves you.

A withered maple leaf has left its branch and is falling to the ground

When you really love someone, you see all their mess and their brokenness and you love them anyway. In fact, seeing all of that sort of makes you love them more.

All we can do is strive to accept our fate with grace, whatever it might be.

None of us ever know what we are choosing when we choose life. If certainty is so important to you, then you should have chosen to be dead. That is a certain thing.

you are right where you should be / now act like it

It's fine, I repeated. And whatever. It was fine. It had to be.

Fine. It was Goddamn Cat, then.
