”The arts are not a way of making a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.” 

-Kurt Vonnegut

We think that the point is to pass the test or to overcome the problem, but the truth is that things don't really get solved. They come together and they fall apart.

- Pema Chodron

I vow never to take you for granted.

Ingrid Michaelson-The Chain

“Live, travel, adventure, bless, and don’t be sorry.”

-Jack Kerouac

“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.” 

Maya Angelou

“Unhappiness is not knowing what we want and  

killing ourselves to get it.”

 - Don Herold

 “When I’m trusting and being myself as fully as possible, everything in my life reflects this by falling into place easily, often miraculously.”
