Happy New Year Here are a few quotes from various people that, I think, will set the tone for my coming year. Death gives life its fullest reality. -Anthony Dalla Villa It is not the end of the physical body that should worry us. Rather, our concern must be to live while we're alive - to release our inner selves from the spiritual death that comes with living behind a facade designed to conform to external definitions of who and what we are. -Elisabeth Kubler-Ross It's only when we truly know and understand that we have a limited time on earth - and that we have no way of knowing when our time is up, we will then begin to live each day to the fullest, as if it was the only one we had. -Elisabeth Kubler-Ross The world sucks. But life is beautiful. It is just so hard to see it through all the crap. -Mark Burns Metaphysics is a dark ocean without shores or lighthouse, strewn with many a philosophic wreck. -Immanuel Kant Happiness is something final and complete in itself, as being the aim and end of all practical activities whatever .... Happiness then we define as the active exercise of the mind in conformity with perfect goodness or virtue. -Aristotle The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness. -John Kenneth Galbraith There are three schools of magic. One: State a tautology, then ring the changes on its corollaries; that's philosophy. Two: Record many facts. Try to find a pattern. Then make a wrong guess at the next fact; that's science. Three: Be aware that you live. -Fortune I know why I am here and my only real focused goal is to live each day to the fullest and to try and honor God and be an encouragement to others. What the future holds is firmly in God's hands, and I am very happy about that! -Ken Hensley - posted by -g @ 8:22 AM | | 0 rocks in pond |
