Hey guys and gals, I just finished a video project and it brought up a lot of of discussion amongst my friends and I. I always see people on Facebook posting pictures of quotes that don't necessarily fit with what they're going through or are in the same context as the person who said the quote. There are a few quotes I like but I feel that if I were to live by another person's words that might almost be like plagiarism?

So last night I was having this conversation with a group of friends and it was interesting to hear everyone's own opinion and beliefs that help them get through the good times and the bad. I found it pretty interesting considering the people I was having the conversation with from people with Christian beliefs, Muslim, atheist and everything in between.

With that said, what words or ideas keep you going when the going gets tough?

Here is the video that just wrapped up and I thought you guys might like to see it and hear what I have to say?

[Candeldandel]

"Everything in moderation" is one I use a LOT.

Also, one that I saw on a friend's mom's wall: "Calmly do the next thing to be done." I like that one, too.

There're a couple more; I'll post them when I remember.

My mantra involves her nowadays:



Otherwise, it is just "All is well. There is always a lesson behind everything that happens to me. Always.".

[Opiate]

I'm largely against simplistic mantras or mottos which can summarize life in to nice, tidy packages. Human existance is, in my experience, chaotic and inherently resistant to simplicity. However, if I had to pick one quotation which comes closest to being a central understanding, it would be this:

Oh God, whose law it is that he who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep, pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our despair, against our will, comes wisdom through the awful Grace of God.

--Aeschylus

[TheCrow]

So it goes.

[Like the hat?]

The one piece of advice that I want my kids to remember, if they ever remember anything I tell them: Don't be a jerk.

Let justice be done though the heavens fall.

Live and let live.

[Dark Stalkers]

"How do you prove that you exist ... ? Maybe we don't exist ... "

[Hindle]

Never care what people think is one thats done me well.

[Wuthering_Heights]

Never hope or look forward to anything, and you will never be let down.

[Crazylegs]

All you need to do is move the compass needle 1 degree.

[jl4855]

A good ol Courage Wolf saying, "Seize the day...BY THE THROAT!".
