We don't know where we come from and where we go, we fill the missing links with whatever our imaginations can provide us
~ Bangambiki Habyarimana
Then nothing became something, and I was born, and I wrought great havoc in the world in the time allotted to me, and I returned to nothingness
Water in, water out until there is no water to run and the riverbed runs dry. That's life
Life has no map; it's made of random events, always caused by something beyond your control.
Life is just a dream, to some it's a sweet dream, to others, a nightmare. But whatever it is, it's always short and dissipates quickly.
We live like sheep in line waiting to be slaughtered in a slaughterhouse. We eat and laugh and fight as we see those in front of us fall to the knife
A small event as tiny as a drop of a pin can change the direction of your entire life
Oh, let us love our occupations,Bless the squire and his relations,Live upon our daily rations,And always know our proper stations.
~ Charles Dickens
When you finally understand the meaning of life, you come to the conclusion it has none after all
Most of our waking life is make believe. If there was a way to record every dream that crosses our minds, the true nature of humans would be laid bare
Do you know why we show respect to life when it shows none to us? Family is the answer
We unthinkingly build the pilings of our lives upon whatever comes along. Like it or not, we play the hand that fate deals us. If fate is kind, some people credit their fortuitous circumstances to their ingenuity and resoluteness. If fate is cruel, some people curse God. The truth is that an unenlightened person resists suffering, they continually wish for a world different than it is, whereas an enlightened person learns how to suffer heroically.
~ Kilroy J. Oldster
I wish for sorrow to be a full stop and happiness to be a comma in my life.

Endeavour to appreciate life while you experience it, for some will never experience life again, because they are six feet inside the grave.

I'm willing to grind, endure & suffer to wake that beast within me, to grow, accomplish & win.
~ Sachin Kumar Puli
Let nothing put me to unease,nothing to deceive.I have conceived,I exist.Because I am blessed,To gather time,in hearing,my breath,so tranquil.To life,I am, thankful.

To strive to better oneself is natural and expected. To abandon oneself in an effort to attain a new self is foolish and unhealthy.

A Reader lives life (personal) within Life (social).
~ Harpy
What goes into our mind matters a lot to the success or failure of our lives. For so many people, what they heard triggered their steps that led them into discarding the real value of their lives. For so many people, what they heard became a spring board that shot the real value of their lives to a glorious height and for so many people, what they heard made them to choose never to do anything in life. Until you lose your hearing, you shall always hear. But, what you hear and what you deduce from what you hear must not just be distinctive but sound enough to make you take a distinctive step which will produce a distinctive footprint. If you fail to mind the seed of what goes into your mind today, you shall surely mind the fruits of what went into your mind yesterday tomorrow. Mind your mind!
~ Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
Death is easy, living difficult.

Standing at the edge of timeAlmost falling down to the dark abyssAs I near the end of mineI reminisce the things I will missThe smiles and laughterRunning around without a careThe time when my grin will never falterBeing so free, willing my soul to bareHeartaches, heartbreaks and tearsNow I know better and to myself I will never lieBecause in woe, I learned to love and never fearThose were the best and worst moments of my lifeAs the memories rush back to meI look down and now I feel relievedBecause when it is timeEverything will be fine when I leave
~ Isabelle Guzman
Sometimes, we need to accept that life doesn’t always go the way we planned.
~ Karon Waddell
It is only when we first do what we are SUPPOSED to do, that we set ourselves to be successful at what we WANT to do
~ Dr. Jacinta Mpalyenkana
Sometimes I return back to the state of mind I had as a child when I believed nothing was impossible.
~ Jonathan Harnisch
Life is beautiful. Suffering is due to unconscious following.
My first interview was with eighty-eight-year-old folk artist Marcia Muth… ‘Your life does change as you get older,’ she told me. ‘You get into what’s important and what’s not’.
~ Ashton Applewhite
Life is like a box of chocolates: You get through what little actual good stuff there is right away, then you constantly fool yourself into believing there's still something good in whatever's left.
~ James Rozoff
The man who dies rich dies disgraced leaving the earth without making it better than he met it. Give to humanity.

Life moves very fast. it rushes us from heaven to hell in a matter of seconds.
~ Paulo Coelho
I'd tell them that it gets better. That they may not be able to beat death when their time comes, but they can beat death in life. I know it may not be an easy thing to do, but with the right person by their side they can conquer anything.
~ Stephanie Kaleto
Think of a new day and think of a new purpose. Think of a new reason out of the reasons of yesterday. Think of the distinctive step that is worth taking to continue the footprints of yesterday. Each day comes with its own ideas. Each day comes with its own troubles. Each day comes with its own possibles and impossibles. What makes each day good or bad is not just our thoughts but, the steps we take which is influenced by our thoughts to obtain what is good or bad. Think of a new day; think of a distinctive footprint
I go towards him and put my hands on his face and I kiss him. “What do you feel, Holden?”He looks into my eyes. “You,” he says. “I feel you.
~ Kady Hunt
Here now in his triumph where all things falter, Stretched out on the spoils that his own hand spread,As a god self-slain on his own strange altar, Death lies dead.
~ Algernon Charles Swinburne
The bones of the oak tree that had stood by the spring branch during my youth were scattered about the ground, pieces of the skeleton of a majestic life that had passed while I was off growing up and old.
~ Dan Groat
You are the ocean, let the rivers come to you. You are the flower, let the bees come to you.
Isn't it ironic that a nightmare can masquerade as a dream?
~ Ken Poirot
It takes all of our life to learn how to live, and – something that may surprise you more – it takes just as long to learn how to die.
~ Seneca
Don't try to preserve your energy. Rather, think of a worthwhile purpose in life and burn yourself up.... for that's what is satisfying and fulfilling.
