I have a few "Im ol' school until I die"

'An obsession with winning makes you a loser in the end"

the one I live by.....

Better to regret the things you do, than the things you don't do.

I have two of them

"Do what you will, harm none"-Wicca creed

And words by Joseph Campbell "Follow your bliss" (Which is similar as "Do what you will")



Cat

I guess I have two . . .

Don't stop doing the things you enjoy doing because you think you have outgrown them.

Don't take yourself too seriously.

I guess the main thing here is 'Be yourself' - a phrase mentioned many times on the board.  :)

"Never Give Up" - I have failed a lot of times...but I ain't because I gave up

"Life is suffering anyone that say's any different is either a liar or trying to sell something" Cary Elwes as Wesley, in the Princess Bride.- makes life's punishments and harshness easier to deal with

"You must how no mercy nor have any belief in the way others judge you, for your greatness will silence them all" Jim Warrior Hellwig - Makes following my dreams easier to do

"I am a man of God" - This is who I am...and I do my best to live up to these words.

"You know you got to go through Hell before you can get to Heaven" Steve Miller Band in the Song "Jet Airliner" Reminds me that in the end through all the failure disappointment and pain their is a reward.

"If it is to be, it is up to me."

My son may be gone, but he wants my life to go on :\'(

"This is life, not Heaven. You don't have to be perfect."

"...Being somebody doesn't make you anybody anyway."

Never say never

Another one is "You gotta make your own oppurtunities"

Never Say Die

Forgot one. "That which does not break you, makes you stronger."





Cat

My mottos:

"Quit yer bitchin'."

"Grow up."

Not very popular ones, but they serve me well.

everything happens for a reason

everything happens for a reason


This is the quote that keeps people from killing themselves...believe it or not.

do not thrive to meet perfection, but see the perfection in yourself and thrive to keep it.  8)

do not thrive to meet perfection, but see the perfection in yourself and thrive to keep it.  8)


Intriguing and poetic.  :)

"Know that you are never alone"
"Real friends DO exist" ;)

"Know that you are never alone"
"Real friends DO exist" ;)


Your son was a wrestler...so I'll take for granted that you've probably at least heard of Tom Brands(Iowa wrestler 4x All American 3x NCAA champion 1996 Olympic Gold Medalist)  In realation to you second quote he told me one time, "if you have 1 friend, and I mean one friend in your entire life...you were lucky."

"Live and let live"

"It's better to die on your feet than to live on your knees"

The sun will rise again tomarow...


Yep! The darkest point is just before the dawn.  :)

"Know that you are never alone"
"Real friends DO exist" ;)


Choice phrases indeed, RockandRollFan.  :)

"Know that you are never alone"
"Real friends DO exist" ;)



How about: When s**t hits the fan, that is when you discover who your TRUE friends are.




Cat

"Know that you are never alone"
"Real friends DO exist" ;)




Thanks Man.That was good. :\'( :)

"Don't Sweat the Small Stuff", one that I wish I would've listened to alot earlier in life, and the other is (and not an exact quote), if someone's talking about you, who cares, at least they're leaving someone else alone!  :) I've learned to let the little stuff go, it's just not worth it anymore!

"If one learns to love oneself too much, one only has room to become arrogant"
"The only one who can tell you how to get to God is yourself."
"Defend yourself to the end"

"If their name isnt on my bills and they dont live with me... Who The F@#k Cares!!!"

"If you can find a better car,BUY IT" ;D

Don't Trust Anybody

Keep it simple, stupid  ;).

Always expect the worst...that way you will never be disappointed

If practice makes perfect and nobody's perfect, then why practice?

Kitty kitty meow meow, meow meow kitty.


I shall live by those words for the rest of my life

People who live in glass houses shouldn't walk around naked  ;D

Do or do not, there is no try...

And my other one is....

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death.

Love is...










A Mutt fom Hell that I can't live without. *wipes tear from eye*

Love is...
