The quotes I love are short and sweet, but they pack a ton of inspiration!!

"Life is a promise...fulfill it.
Life is a song...sing it.
Life is a challenge...meet it.
Life is a dream...live it."
Quotes like this always remind me to dream big. It's good to see life from this perspective. We get so caught up in the daily details of life that we rarely spend time thinking about the whole picture. I totally agree that life is a promise, that I wasn't just put on this earth to take up space...but that I have a purpose that is only for me.
The second quote that I loved said:
"The only place where success comes before work is in the dictionary."
Isn't this the truth?? So many people want to have it the other way around. But secretly I think if it wasn't a lot of "work" it wouldn't be savored as something so sweet. It means so much more when you have invested yourself into something, and then to see it succeed makes it that much more valuable. I have several books filled with quotes, and when I can't think of something to say on a page, they always come in handy. I also love to use song lyrics also on my pages.
So next time your running around, busy with life, take a minute to look around you on purpose...and try to see all of the inspiration that surrounds us everyday. Then use it to document your memories! My life is definitley a "challenge" like the quote says...but I am up for it, and ready to meet it! Hope you have a great day!
