i was reading through and soon as i saw this one, it was as if something fell outta my eyes (my eyes opened widely) cos its me and how i think exactly



43. If you expect the world to be fair with you because you are fair, you’re fooling yourself. That’s like expecting the lion not to eat you because you didn’t eat him.

[quote author=eleojo23]Our lives are shaped by what we think about in our quiet moments. I wish to share with you some profound statements that will help you shape your thinking aright.
These statements made by different people at different times were compiled by Marc Chernoff.
For those who may want to ask for summary, I'm sorry there is no other way to summarize these. Just spare a few minutes to read and you may just stumble upon something that will change your life.

In order to make this thread interesting, after reading the post, feel free to pick any statement(s) that really touched you and explain what you understood from it. Here we go...

1.No matter how many mistakes you make or how slow you progress, you are still way ahead of everyone who isn’t trying.
2. You cannot change what you refuse to confront.
3. Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.
4. Don’t think of cost. Think of value.
5. Sometimes you need to distance yourself to see things clearly. NU

35. Love and appreciate your parents. We are often so busy growing up, we forget they are also growing old..This is a great point that touches me so much..No matter how busy we are, we should always create time for those we love especially our parents. Life is short!

this post is beautiful on all fronts. these are nice picture captions by the way cool only instagrammers will grab. plus some of those quotes could actually fit in as deadly punchlines in a rap track. It's not even something u can grasp at once. thanks so much for sharing OP

First thing i did after reading them all was to dash you my like straight up, how i just wish i could give-out more than one cry

Another thing i did was to give you a bumper to bumper follow right away. grin

This are the type of quotes one need to scale tru the huddles of life.
