I’ve learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow. I’ve learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights. I’ve learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you’ll miss them when they’re gone from your life. I’ve learned that making a “living” is not the same thing as making a “life.” I’ve learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I’ve learned that you shouldn’t go through life with a catcher’s mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back. I’ve learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I’ve learned that even when I have pains, I don’t have to be one. I’ve learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back. I’ve learned that I still have a lot to learn. I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

Maya Angelou (via kari-shma)

I really like Maya Angelou!  Her thing on the Oprah Network was so interesting.  She said inspiring phrase after inspiring phrase.  I was trying to write some of them down but I couldnt keep up!  LOL. 

It is just so important to take time here and there, to really take a look at just WHAT we worry about every day.  There are people out there w/o homes, w/o families, dying of cancer, defending our country, in nations of turmoil…in situations they can do nothing about but survive.  And we worry about how much gym time we get, if this or that fits how we look in the mirror… I get it, believe me, but we as humans blow things up in our minds to be sooo much more of a big deal then they really are!  It is so ridiculous.  

Some of spend way to much dealing with life and reacting to what it throws at us.  It is time that we make happen whatever the hell we want to happen because it is possilble and AMAZING to do. 

When stressed about something, stop and think to yourself, is this really that big of a deal?  No, probably not.  Today, maybe, but in the big picture…no.  You will be amazed at how fast ur stress goes away if you just take a second and deal with it!
