Rain Drops Keep Falling

Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.

Dew Drops

If I be just a page torn out of a book, 

May I sail forever over the oceans blue, 

 Float over the treetops and the mountains too, 

Drift across the valleys and the flowers look, 

Until at last, I rest and kiss the morning dew.

One's destination is never a place but rather a new way of looking at things.

Discovery consists of looking at the same thing as everyone else and thinking something different.

~Albert Szent-Gyorgyi

Opening Up

Drop the idea of becoming someone, because you are already a masterpiece. You cannot be improved. You have only to come to it, to know it, to realize it.

~ Osho
