Words of Wisdom!

Please share some true words of wisdom with me!

"Sometimes I fall off the trail of life and need a helping word to help me back on!~"

Here's one for you,

We do not what we ought,
What we ought not, we do,
And lean upon the thought
That Chance will bring us through.

-Matthew Arnold, Empedocles on Etna

In the end it doesn't matter what we drove, how big our house was or how much money we had in our bank account......
but it does matter who we drove to help, who we invited to share our house and how much we shared our wealth to make a difference.

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt within the heart.

How about,
Tis better to remain silent and thought a fool,
Than to speak up and remove all doubt!~

I like the quote I've been hearing a lot on A&E's commercials that "Forrest Gump" is going to be shown on their network next week. It's the one that Forrest's mom told him "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get!" And also when he says " I might not know much, but I know what LOVE is"!

Faith:
"When you come to the edge of all that you know, you must believe one of two things:
There will be earth on which to stand or you will be given wings to fly."

I dont know the author of this quote, but I love it.
