I want to marry a piano player who can sing too-or at least pretends everyday, live by the beach and be a Mama to lots of babies.
I'll compromise on everything but the babies.;)
"Don't take any wooden nickels."
The most profound advice I've ever been given, from the smartest man I know.For attractive lips, speak words of kindness... For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone...People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands; one for helping yourself, and the other for helping others.
What you need to know about the past is that no matter what has happened, it has all worked together to bring you to this very moment. And this is the moment you can choose to make everything new. Right now.
Quote I love about Nelson Mandela:
Somehow, his trials purified his spirit and clarified his vision, giving him the strength to be a free man even behind bars, and to remain free of anger and hatred when he was at last released. He will go down in history because he was able to draw from his soul all the poison accumulated by such an unjust punishment.
