Time's fun when you're having flies.

If at first you don't succeed
skydiving is not for you.

"A good woman will pick you apart, a box full of suggestions for your possible heart."

Allheart, how refreshing it was to read this quote! :) You know how sometimes, timing is just perfect? You touched my heart by quoting our Lord and Savior and I thank you. We get so busy sometimes, we buzz through the day. It was just so nice to have a quiet reminder of such an important quote with such power behind the words. Thank you! :pQuote:

That second one was just terrific! Some things are so obvious but it takes a quote like this for me to grasp it. LOL Thanks for sharing. :p
Thanks JrebelQuote:

An absolutely beautiful song.
"Upward Over the Mountain" Iron and Wine
Mother don't worry, I killed the last snake that lived in the creek bed
Mother don't worry, I've got some money I saved for the weekend
Mother remember being so stern with that girl who was with me?
Mother remember the blink of an eye when I breathed through your body?
So may the sunrise bring hope where it once was forgotten
Sons are like birds, flying upward over the mountain
Mother I made it up from the bruise on the floor of this prison
Mother I lost it, all of the fear of the Lord I was given
Mother forget me now that the creek drank the cradle you sang to
Mother forgive me, I sold your car for the shoes that I gave you
So may the sunrise bring hope where it once was forgotten
Sons could be birds, taken broken up to the mountain
Mother don't worry, I've got a coat and some friends on the corner
Mother don't worry, she's got a garden we're planting together
Mother remember the night that the dog had her pups in the pantry?
Blood on the floor, fleas on their paws,
And you cried 'til the morning
So may the sunrise bring hope where it once was forgotten
Sons are like birds, flying always over the mountain
Got to have fun ones! :p I called my sister who lives in Tenn. just a few minutes ago just to share these with her. She laughed so hard. Laughter is such good medicine. Thanks again. That second one sure influences my life... I don't think I will be skydiving anytime soon... loved it... just loved it! :pQuote:

(Yes, I have watched all of Buffy and own all of Angel)
Buffy: I'm cookie dough. I'm not done baking. I'm not finished becoming who ever the hell it is I'm going to turn out to be. I make it through this, and the next thing, and the next thing, and maybe one day, I turn around and realize I'm ready. I'm cookies. And then, you know, if I want someone to eat m- or enjoy warm, delicious, cookie me, then that's fine. That'll be then. When I'm done.
Angel: Any thoughts on who might enjoy - Do I have to go with the cookie analogy?
Buffy: I'm not really thinking that far ahead. That's kind of the point.
Angel: I'll go start working on the second front. Make sure I don't have to use it.
[starts to leave]
Buffy: Angel. I do. Sometimes, think that far ahead.
Angel: Sometimes is something.
Buffy: Be a long time coming. Years, if ever.
Angel: I ain't gettin' any older.
"When trust is broken, so are hearts"
Just silly ole me.

All of the above :-)... but we better stop talking about it or people will start asking questions.Quote:

"Happy weekend to all, and to all a GOOD NIGHT!" :)
No thank you... I always love having a chuckle with you guys. I'm just glad HC is in this conversation or we could be accused of threadjacking :-)
Can I threadjack myself? I wonder...
I just gave a quote, granted, its an HC doctored quote, but it works!
Another HC doctored quote is appropriate for a lot of my answers in Relationships - and I really like it!
"Darling, heal thyself." HC/Shakespeare
“Those who danced were thought to be quite insane by those who could not hear the music.” ~Angela Monet
It is only possible to live happily-ever-after on a day-to-day basis. ~Margaret Bonanno
Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
If you worry about what might be, and wonder what might have been, you will ignore what is. ~Author Unknown
We steal if we touch tomorrow. It is God's. ~Henry Ward Beecher
The best thing about the future is that it comes only one day at a time. ~Abraham Lincoln
“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.”
“You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.”
"I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead and some come from behind. But I've bought a big bat. I'm all ready you see. Now my troubles are going to have troubles with me!”
“And will you succeed? Yes indeed, yes indeed! Ninety-eight and three-quarters percent guaranteed!”
~ Dr. Suess
Can't rate answers unfortunately
But I have to say “You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.” is perfect
Thank you very much for posting it here
A touch of Shakespeare this morning...
All the world 's a stage, and all the men and women merely players.
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts
~Shakespeare~
As You Like It, Act II, Scene VII
Be not afraid of greatness:
Some are born great,
Some achieve greatness
And some have greatness thrust upon them.
~Shakespeare~
Twelfth Night, Act II, Scene V
When you do dance, I wish you
A wave o' th' sea, that you might ever do
Nothing but that.
~Shakespeare~
The Winter's Tale, Act IV, Scene IV
The main quote/motto (thought/idea) that got me into a lot of trouble:
By a personal friend who is no longer with us: "The only time I ever said no was when they asked if I'd had enough"
Quotes and mottos that got me out of bad places and changed my life are:
Don Henley: "I will not go quietly"
Van Halen: "I"ve been to the edge where I stood and looked down, I lost a lot of friends there... I go no time to mess around"
Albert Einstein: "Imagination is more important than knowledge."
My Mom (but I think it's from the Bible): "This too shall pass"
Bo Lazoff: "We have to learn control... so we can give up control"
"Love me when I least deserve it. Because that's when I really need it."
- a swedish proverb
My passion has always been photography. But was going trough a rough time during the bussy Christmas portrait season. This quote made me in to what I am today, a freelance photographer and loving it.Quote:

"It is better to have tried and failed, then never to have tried at all"

Finally:
"Life is to short to be miserable. Only you can change your life"
I have tried lately to read Shakespeare, and found it so intolerably dull that it nauseated me. (Sorry HC)
~ Charles Darwin
A message prepared in the mind reaches a mind; a message prepared in a life reaches a life.
~ Bill Gothard
A moment's insight is sometimes worth a life's experience.
~ Oliver Wendell Holmes
A difficult time can be more readily endured if we retain the conviction that our existence holds a purpose - a cause to pursue, a person to love, a goal to achieve.
~ John Maxwell
Oh how I needed to read this tonight. Thank you so much for posting it. :)Quote:

We all have mental problems, it's just that some of us choose to show them.
