I love intriguing & inspiring quotes that makes you think, puts a smile on your face, and just makes you laugh.

Do the things you used to talk about doing but never did. Know when to let go and when to hold on tight. stop rushing. Don't be intimidated to say it like it is. Stop apologizing all the time. learn to say no, so your yes has some oomph. Spend time with the friends who lift you up, and cut loose the ones who bring you down. stop giving your power away. Be more concerned with being interested than being interesting. Be old enough to appreciate your freedom, and young enough to enjoy it. Finally know who you are.
- Kristin Armstrong

Family isn't always blood. It's the people in your life who want you in theirs: the ones who accept you for who you are. The ones who would do anything to see you smile & who LOVE YOU no matter what.

To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch... to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!

Every day is a gift. That's why we live in the present.
