A quote I try to live by (June 27)

            I love quotes. When I was younger I had a notebook I’d write quotes I liked. I sometimes now write down funny or deep things people say. So, trying to come up with ONE quote is near impossible. If I can only choose one quote, it’d have to be “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself.” Matthew 22:37, 39. Life needs to be about love first and foremost.

            But I’m me and I want to share a couple of the other quotes I love!

“Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
Life is beauty, admire it.
Life is a dream, realize it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it.
Life is a promise, fulfill it.
Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.
Life is a struggle, accept it.
Life is a tragedy, confront it.
Life is an adventure, dare it.
Life is luck, make it.
Life is too precious, do not destroy it.
Life is life, fight for it.”

― Mother Teresa

“Unless it is mad, passionate, extraordinary love, it’s a waste of time. There are too many mediocre things in life—love should not be one of them.” -Unknown
