Sitting here with my cupajo (oh, how I missed it though Fasting) replying to a friends journal, I remembered the other night I was thinking about making this enrty. So here it goes:

There are 5 mottos that I live my life by, that really impact and define who I am. They are as follows:

  • Let Go, Let God.
  • Foolish men speak while wise men listen ~ Tso Sun, The Art of War.
  • Dont's settle for the one you can live with, find the one you can't live without. ~ No clue
  • You can be anything, do anything you want to in life, it just depends on how hard your willing to work for it. ~Me
  • Life is peaks and vallies. ~Me
Are there Mottos that stick out and impact your life? Please share.

Life is short~Not simple~Enjoy everyday
The one I try to remember:

Don't take anything personal.

My life motto is:

Trust your instincts
LOL opps, meant to change that skinnie~ Good catch! These are all very good.
Just a thought~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Do you live by a single motto? Nothing in life is truly singular. Everything takes atleast two.
come on people...share!!!!

"Keep passing the open windows" - John Irving (in Hotel New Hampshire)
"I got 99 problems and a b**** ain't one" - Jay-Z

Ok, I have more:

If something looks too good to be true it probably is.

Treat others as you would like to be treated.

You can't please everyone all the time, do what YOU need to.
Ohh skinny I want to add to one of yours....

Teat others as you would like to be treated, but dont expect the same in return!
Find an excuse to win.  Navy Seals.
Adding is good :D I think the most important life motto has to be:

Don't eat yellow snow.
Thanks Melody for this post - refreshingly positive!!

There but for the Grace of God Go I - Lyndalyn told me the person who said this and now I forget is name!! 

Evil thrives where good men do nothing. - I assume the bible - heard it on Touched by an Angel

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.  - Helen Keller

Until the great mass of the people shall be filled with the sense of responsibility for each other's welfare, social justice can never be attained - Helen Keller
Great examples Roxanned!

Skinnie *shakes head* although I have never been tempted to eat yellow snow, I will forever keep this in mind *wink*
Kathy that is pretty powerful and  I'm gonna have to add it to the list.
Good or bad - everything comes to an end.
Reminds me to enjoy every good moment in life to the fullest and not to get too worried about the bad times - they will pass.
Hard-pressed on my right, my left is in retreat, my center is yeilding. Situation excellent. I am *attacking*...
Makes me think of the Phillippino army's motto:
Always out numbered, never out fought
My daughter found this one the other day:  "If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off."  :0  it cracked me up but mine seems to have been over the years, "live and let live."  I also like "Don't worry be Happy"  with the tune... can you hear it?  :)
