Quotes to ponder...

Here are some of my favorite quotes.  Quotes that have caused me to dig deep, examine my life, and change the way I see and think about the world and my life... 
How do they apply to you?

The voyage of discovery is not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes. ~Marcel Proust 

Love has the power of making you believe what you would normally treat with the deepest suspicion.  ~Mirabeau

Sometimes all you can do is not think, not wonder, not obsess. Just breathe and have faith that everything will work out for the best.

For peace of mind, resign as general manager of the universe. ~Anon  

You do not have to attend every argument you are invited to...  ~Wayne Dyer
 
If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always got...  ~Anon

Be open to everything, but attached to nothing!

"The greatest mistake in the world is to pretend to be someone you're not in order to please someone else. Have the courage to be yourself, no matter what. If you ruffle someone's feathers their reaction is not your business. All you can do is be who you are and who you are is one of a kind. But remember, the same thing goes for everyone else so chances are you'll get your feathers ruffled, too. One word will solve all your problems, allow." ~ Jackson Kiddard

"People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that's what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life. A true soul mate is probably the most important person you'll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. A soul mates purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so out of control that you have to transform your life..." ~ Elizabeth Gilbert

Instead of making up excuses for why something is impossible, it's far better to come up with reasons why it could be possible. One reason why is more powerful than all the reasons why not.~Jackson Kiddard
