Life Just Isn't

"Life isn't about keeping score. It's not about how many people call you and it's not about who you've dated, are dating or haven't dated at all. It isn't about who you've kissed, what sport you play, or which guy or girl likes you. It's not about your shoes or your hair or the color of your skin or where you live or go to school. In fact, it's not about grades, money, clothes, or colleges that accept you or not. Life isn't about if you have lots of friends, or if you're alone, and it's not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. Life just isn't about that. But life is about who you love and who you hurt.

"A painter thinks, 'I can't fix the whole planet, but I can at least make this square of canvas what it ought to be.' And a sculptor thinks the same about a lump of clay or marble. A writer thinks the same about a piece of paper, conventionally eleven inches long and eight and a half inches wide. I suggest you set as your goal the putting of some small part of the planet into something like safe and sane and decent order." Kurt Vonnegut "We live in a society where a superficial definition of strength often takes the cake. Those who are physically strong, emotionally unfeeling, distanced, and stoic are often seen as the mightiest. Those who are vulnerable, feeling—dare I say human—are often seen as weak." Author (Unknown) "What most people need to learn in life is how to love people and use things instead of using people and loving things."
