A book <3

Too Soon Old, Too Late Smart 
By: Gordon Livingston

A dear friend of mine gave this book to me as a birthday present.  And of course knowledge and expansion of the heart and soul is one of the biggest gifts anyone can give.  I've taken this book and applied what I could to my life. 

Some favorite quotes...

"Life is a gamble in which we don't get to deal the cards, but are nevertheless obligated to play them to the best of our ability."

"To take the risks necessary to achieve this goal is an act of courage.  To refuse to take them, to protect our hearts against all loss, is an act of despair."

"There is nothing more pointless, or common, than doing the same things and expecting different results."

"Forgiveness is a form of letting go, but they are not the same thing."

"We are not what we think, or what we say, or how we feel.  We are what we do. "

"The greatest risk is not taking any."
