Do you have any wisdom to share? Whether it be and old quote or and old remedy all widom is appriciated! My grandmother started this fasination by telling me at a young age, "The road to hell is paved with good intentions." I thought it was weird but cool way to think. She also shared with me things like rubbing a penny on a sty to make it go away. So, please come and share some things passed to you through the years!

My favorite is Follow You Bliss. Joseph campbell said it on a Bill Moyers interview.It is my mantra.If you won't be happy doing it, don't do it.Find what makes you happy and go after it.

I don't really have any words of my own, but I would like to post this very nice, and very true quote:
"The difference between what we do
and what we are capable of doing
would suffice to solve most of the
world's problems."
- Mohandas Gandhi

Just to add on some words of wisdom:
There are two types of people who will tell you that you cannot make a difference in this world: Those who are afraid to try and those who are afraid that you will succeed. --Ray Goforth
The saddest moment in a person's life comes but once.
The secret of success is to do common things uncommonly well. --John D. Rockefeller
I don't care if the steps are small, so long as you keep taking them -- Joseph M. Reed
Worry gives a small thing a big shadow.
Go out on a limb, you might like the view.
Happiness is not the absence of problems, but rather the ability to deal with them

I will try to think of some of my favorites. I too love quotes a lot.
1. To say that you forgive, but don't forget is another way of saying that you don't forgive.
2. No one accuses the innocent, so strongly as the guilty.
3. Judge a man by his questions, not his answers.
4. Do your very best and trust God for the rest.
5. The grass may be greener on the other side, but someone still hast to mow it.
6. Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.
7. Though you may be on the right track, you still have to move.
8. Cows may come and cows may go, but the bull flies on forever.
9. Be the change you want to see.
10. This last quote is my very own, The meaning of life is love, because God is love.
