Late Night inspirations

i love collecting quotations. I would highlight quotes or phrases I like from books ive read, or from the ones I receive in my email or those sent by friends. Sometimes quotes that I find serves a purpose at the moment when it’s needed while others are just for personal reflection and kept for a later day. The ones which I can relate too I would copy it and put in the ‘My Book Of Me’. Its kind of a scrap book but not really a scrap book. It’s a book of about me pretty much – the things I like, the philosophies that I have come up by myself, ummm … my favorite quotations among other things. In this blog entry I would like to share some of the quotes I have come across this week starting with the first one which is from the book ‘The Promise of Wisdom’. ,….

To know someone here or there with whom you can feel there is understanding in spite of distances or thoughts expressed – That can make life a garden
Johann Wolfgang Goethe

Anyone who isn’t confused really doesn’t understand the situation.
Edward R. Murrow

The following quotes are from my collection of ‘Chocolate for Women’ series a collection of books for the woman’s spirit soul and heart and just some of my favorite resources to go to if I need a pick me up ..

‘You can never discover new oceans, unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore
-Author unknown.

Only those who can the invisible can do the impossible
-Author unknown.

Having your way is a lot easier when you have more than one way
-Jennifer James

And finally some quotes by me … yeah I actually wrote did I actually think of these? On the heading for the page of my book of Me. Anyways my thoughts shared with the world. The following was written when I was 26 about eight years ago. I have always been fascinated by the moon and stars and what it signifies at least for me.

Everyone has a star of their own. Out of the million of stars in the sky, one of them is yours. Stars mean different things to different people. For me it’s a sign of hope, a sign of better things to come a sign that something or someone is watching over you ..

Life is fragile. Everything little thing counts – people, experiences. Live it to the fullest because you don’t know when you might loose parts of it …
