Dreams

"The quality, not the longevity, of one's life is what is important."

 - Martin Luther King, Jr. -

"You gotta have a dream. If you don't have a dream, how you gonna make a dream come true?"

 - Oscar Hammerstein II -

We have to dream in order to want more than what we have.  If we do not dream, what can we aspire to, or strive for?

Life...

"Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards."

 - Soren Kierkegaard - 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Not sure if I really agree with this quote... Life can be understood after the fact as we look back, but it does not mean that it can only be understood that way.  We look at other people's lives and its the hindsight that makes it understood or not.  Not that we have to look at it backwards.

Dream... dream, dream, dream.

"A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world."

 - Oscar Wilde - 

"We all dream; we do not understand our dreams, yet we act a if nothing strange does on in our sleep minds, strange at least by comparison with the logical, purposeful doings of our minds when we are awake."

 - Erich Fromm - 

"Dream and give yourself permission to envision a You that you choose to be."

 - Joy Page - 

Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present."

 - Jim Rohn - 

We can always dream, and we can always strive to reach for the moon.  Even if you miss, you will be among the stars.  There is a quote like that, not sure who said it, but I like it.  It sees the good in a failure.

Let us GROW!

"Easter is meant to be a symbol of hope, renewal and new life."

 - Janine di Giovanni - 

"Don't let your struggle become your identity."

 - Ralston Bowles - 

"Life is an exciting business, and most exciting when it is lived for others."

 - Helen Keller - 

Everyone struggles, and everyone goes through pain.  We as a people need to overcome these issues and to strive for a better us, achieve a better self.  We are constantly learning, growing and progressing.  Let us make a better place by enriching our lives with knowledge.
