Life, with all it's rules, it's obligations, and it's freedoms is like a sonnet: you're given the form, but you have to write the sonnet yourself.

 Have the courage and endurance to face what must die in you,
and the rewards will be unparalleled. - Jessica Hesser  Every relationship that touches the soul leads us into dialogue with eternity, so that, even though we may think our strong emotions focus on the people around us, we are being set face to face with divinity itself, however we understand or speak that mystery.
-Thomas Moore  Let go of certainty. The opposite isn't uncertainty. It's openness, curiosity, and a willingness to embrace paradox, rather than choose up sides. The ultimate challenge is to accept ourselves exactly as we are, but never stop trying to learn and grow.
- Tony Schwartz  What is life?
It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the winter time. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset. - Indian Chief Crowfoot's last words  All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another.
- Anatole France  Truly, we live with mysteries too marvelous to be understood... Let me keep company always with those who say "Look!" and laugh in astonishment, and bow their heads.
