Your life is right now...

(918)
Your life is right now! It’s not later!
It’s not in that time of retirement. It’s not when the lover gets here.
It’s not when you’ve moved into the new house. It’s not when you get the better job.
Your life is right now. It will always be right now. You might as well decide
to start enjoying your life right now, because it’s not ever going to get better
than right now—until it gets better right now!
Abe Hicks




(917)
What you need, what you deserve, is a guy who adores you
for what you are. Who doesn’t see you as a project, but a prize.
You know?
Sarah Dessen




(916)
It’s kind of like when you look at yourself in the mirror and you say your name.
And it gets to a point where none of it seems real. Well, sometimes,
I can do that, but I don’t need an hour in front of a mirror.
It just happens very fast, and things start to slip away.
And I just open my eyes, and I see nothing. And then
I start to breathe really hard trying to see something, but I can’t.
It doesn’t happen all the time, but when it does, it scares me.
The Perks of Being a Wallflower




(915)
A hug can turn your day around. It’s like an emotional Heimlich.
Someone puts their arms around you and they give you a squeeze,
and all your fear and anxiety comes shooting out of your mouth
and you can breathe again.
Pushing Daisies




(914)
You should eat. It’s going to be a rough day for you.
Finding out the world isn’t all sunshine and roses takes a lot out of you.
Pam Logan




(913)
We do not believe in ourselves until someone reveals that deep inside us
something is valuable, worth listening to, worthy of our trust,
sacred to our touch. Once we believe in ourselves we can risk curiosity,
wonder, spontaneous delight or any experience that reveals the human spirit.
E.E. Cummings




(912)
We are not mad. We are human.
Leonard Cohen




(911)
No matter what Mr. Philosopher next door thought,
there were things I knew for sure: That I had been loved, once,
and had loved back. That a person could find hope in the way a weed grew.
That the sum of a man’s life was not where he would end up,
but in the details that brought him there. That we make mistakes.
Jodi Picoult




(910)
Do stuff. Be clenched, curious. Not waiting for inspiration’s shove
or society’s kiss on your forehead. Pay attention.
It’s all about paying attention. Attention is vitality.
It connects you with others. It makes you eager. Stay eager.
Susan Sontag




(909)
You see things and you say “Why?”
But I dream things that never were and I say “Why not?”
George Bernard Shaw




(908)
What is the point of being alive if you don’t at least try
to do something remarkable?
John Green




(907)
People have the right to think and say whatever they want to.
But you have the right not to take it to heart, and not to react.
Dr. Phil




(906)
How I’d love to get away from here and be someone else for a while
in a place where no one knows or expects certain things from me.
Libba Bray
