    We cannot put off living until we are ready. The most salient characteristic of life is its urgency, "here and now" without any possibility of postponement. Life is fired at us point-blank.

    Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the tradewinds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

    Say yes to life, even though you know it may devour you.
    ~ Stephen Larsen


    Living is a form of not being sure, not knowing what next or how. The moment we know how, we begin to die a little. We never entirely know. We guess. We may be wrong, but we take leap after leap in the dark.
    ~ Agnes De Mille


    Oh for a life of sensations rather than of thoughts!
    ~ John Keats

    Never be afraid to ask a question, especially of yourself - discovery is the mission of life.
    ~ Brian Kates


    We fail far more often by timidity than by over-daring.
    ~ David Grayson


    Safety is the most unsafe path you can take, safety keeps you numb and dead. People are caught by surprise when it is time to die. They have allowed themselves to live so little.
    ~ Steven Levine


    Happy New Year all....best wishes for 2005 and always..........may it bring all you hope for and more. :)
