    Now I'm gonna post several more quotes:

    - Great souls have wills, feeble ones only have wishes.

    -Love is giving someone the power to destroy you, but trusting them not to.

    -You don't always get answers for some things that happen, because sometimes, the answers were not for you. They were lessons for someone else.

    -Don't just stand there and daydream, follow that dream and see where it leads, you'll never know if you never try. It could be the very best thing you ever did.

    -Think of difficult people like sandpaper. They may rub and scratch you painfully, but you'll end up smooth and polished in the end.

    -The pursuit of happiness is the chance of a lifetime. It is never too late to become what you might have been.

    -We always wait and look for the right time.. Not knowing that each time is right, if we only make things happen.

    -You don't have to please people with a fake attitude and pretend to be someone else.. Because if you can please everybody, then you're not normal.

    -People may doubt what you say, but they will always believe in what you sincerely do. Remember: WELL DONE is much better than WELL SAID.

    My all time favorite quote is "DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU"! If the people of the world regardless of religion and or politics would follow the "Golden Rule" the world would be a better, more peaceful planet on which to live.

    I found this quote to be very true! It's a fact of life, back when I was younger and had no problems I really didn't get it, but I do now :( Life is tough, but is it wasn't... I guess it's not be worth living it.

    -Never say never.
    -Better to be safe than sorry.

    I like these quotes. I have been really thinking about the "Do unto others" quote lately.
    Sometimes I am not as good at that one as I would like to be.

    I also tend to think about the better safe than sorry quote a lot.
    I find that I double check things a lot instead of just taking for
    granted that they are okay.

    You know something Velvetsongs, none of us are perfect. The good thing though is that you are able to identify the fact that you have a fault and you are therefore willing to do something about it. These are some of the quotes that take me through each day. It is always good to weigh every circumstance before diving in so you are on the right track. All the best.

    I loved that movie James, I can't recall the name of it, but it's a really touching story.

    It was a really good movie. It is called "Pursuit of Happiness". I love the job interview scene.

    The man had all sort of misery in his life, the wife didn't care about him and the son and with sacrifice he made it. I never forgot the scene when they run to the bus and the kid loses his toy or when they sleep in the subway's bathroom, but even so he tries to keep the spirits high...
