Quotes ,Sayings such

Post by mrsK »

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let us down, probably will.

You'll have your heart broken and you'll break others' hearts. You'll fight with your best friend or maybe even fall in love with them, and you'll cry because time is flying by.

So take too many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely, and love like you've never been hurt.

Life comes with no guarantees, no time outs, no second chances. you just have to live life to the fullest, tell someone what they mean to you and tell someone off, speak out, dance in the pouring rain, hold someone's hand, comfort a friend, fall asleep watching the sun come up, stay up late, be a flirt, and smile until your face hurts.

Don't be afraid to take chances or fall in love and most of all, live in the moment because every second you spend angry or upset is a second of happiness you can never get back. :-6

Do not fear the winds of adversity. Remember: A kite rises against the wind rather than with it.



There is a place you can touch a woman that will drive her crazy. Her heart.

Woody Allen

To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering one must not love. But then one suffers from not loving. Therefore to love is to suffer, not to love is to suffer. To suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love. To be happy then is to suffer. But suffering makes one unhappy. Therefore, to be unhappy one must love, or love to suffer, or suffer from too much happiness. I hope you're getting this down.

Went to the Canberra-French Christmas party last night, Heather. Totally awesome do. Very informal, though lots of diplomatic cars vied for park space with the rest of us. Everything home cooked and totally delicious. And desserts to die for/from. Chrissie party stuff was combined with a talent show - everything from carols to juggling, folk songs to comedy skits.. to an uproarious can can at the end. Oh la la!!!! Staggered home in ze wee hours.

Just had a very very naughty conversation with my daughter - cell phone to cell phone - she was in full commute on the Eurostar at the time. :sneaky:

How's things your end?????

Other people have the right to be stupid, and will invariably abuse that privilege.

You have a right to your stupid opinions, but - unless you agree with me - you're still wrong.
