Life Quotes
Filed under: General

For Christmas I received a wonderful poster from my parents. It was a variety of quotes on life. I’ve had difficulty with hanging it on the back of my office door, because it keeps falling off. Nevertheless, I do read from it.

I wanted to send a quote out there which I really like. It’s by the poet Henry David Thoreau, one of my favorites. I don’t think it could be any less than perfect.

“However mean your life is, meet it and live it: do not shun it and call it hard names. Cultivate poverty like a garden herb, like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends. Things do not change, we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.”

It’s all a state of mind people. What we have in our minds, is what we die with- make them good, make them enjoyable, and when the pain becomes to much to bear, sleep close to them because in the end, they’ll see you through. SVR

Have yourselves a great day.
