"The future depends on what you do today."

Mahatma Ghandhi
 drschneider
Absolutely!
"If a little dreaming is dangerous, the cure for it is not to dream less, but to dream more, to dream all the time."

Marcel Proust
Without dreams and aspirations we would have nothing to look forward to and therefore no need to strive for anything. Nothing to do, what if we had nothing to do? Where would we be and how would we think? Would we be machines with no emotions?
vpbanjo - Actually, I think we would cease as a species.
"If something can go wrong, it will go wrong and at the least opportune time."

Murphy's Law [unknown]
Sigh, too true.
nannamom - More than most people realize.
"Mother is a verb. It's something you do. Not just who you are."

Cheryl Lacey Donovan
Oh, mothering requires a great deal of doing.
 drschneider
Exactly!
nannamom - From what I've witnessed, I agree.
"Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art...It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things which give value to survival."

C.S. Lewis
Friendship and fellowship go together. Humans are social beings and being friendly is a gift we give each other. Fellowship is a gift from God to us. Gathered together writers gift each other words and stories.
"Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one's weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart."

Mahatma Ghandhi
"If you want to keep a secret, you must also hide it from yourself."

George Orwell
"Imperfection is beauty, madness is greatness and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring."

Marilyn Monroe
 nordicnoir
I think I rank highly on this scale, having a goodly amount of all three but finding my level of ridiculousness to be, well, ridiculous.
nordicnoir - You'd know better than I...lol
"You have power over your mind - Not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength."

Marcus Aurelius
 drschneider
I don't know about strength, but certainly sanity.
"In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act."

George Orwell
Time of history we are now living through.
"Rivers know this: there is no hurry. We shall get there someday."

A.A. Milne
 drschneider
drschneider - Yes it is. *Cool*
"I used to be Snow White, but I drifted."

Mae West
"Real generosity towards the future lies in giving all to the present."

Albert Camus
 drschneider
So true!
"Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever, have enough."

Oprah Winfrey
humblepoet - I can understand that. At a younger age I wanted everything. Now I have all that I need at this age. For. myself, to want anymore is simply greed. Yes, we are all only human with all our flaws. *Smile*
Happiness isn't having what you want; it's wanting what you have.
cathartes02 - Spot on. *ThumbsUpL*.
"Time spent with a cat is never wasted."

Colette
daveryan - Loved watching Tom and Jerry. Can't forget Sylvester and Tweety as well...lol
A purr-fect use of time.
vpbanjo - No question. *Cool*
