hold on whenever you can

Jackie Wei @JackieWei (17) • Xiamen, China 8 May 13

we have dreams in our deep heart, however we are so afraid of the failure and disappointment it brings that we step back and leave it there. sometimes, we get a hint and finally take courage to go forward, and the next thing we do...

shiftmeup I do agree with you Jackie. But in my opinion we are only limited by our thinking. It's us who stop ourselves from ourselves. Our experiences keep on haunting us over and over again. We need to break away from old shackles and move forward with better...

Be present in your life, today! Don't think about the past or live it! Don't concern yourself with the future, cause it hasn't happened!

shiftmeup Can't agree more with you. As they say: yesterday is history, tomorrow is mystery but today is a gift, that's why they call it present. Live in the moment. :) Ciao

Camylo57 @Camylo57 (86) • India 25 Apr 13

shiftmeup Being sad and happy are just phases of life my friend. You need to get a hold of yourself and accept that somedays are going to be rough while others bright. And yes keep smiling. It surely will help. :)

is our future already written - in part?

Stephan @stk40m (1118) • Koeln, Germany 10 Apr 13

for those who say no, think again considering a kind of ''compromise'' here: future may not be written on the whole but for some time ahead (like seconds, hours or even days). So what do you think now, is future really completely...

shiftmeup Even I'm of the opinion that our futures are pretty much pre-decided. But even then I believe that if we work hard towards what we want we can change the weaves of future.

andrewbarclave @andrewbarclave (485) • Ireland 24 Apr 13

I know this a bit of a cliché subject but what did you want to be? you don't even have to go back as far as when you were a child, even just a teenager. I know with me I wanted to be an accountant from the age of say 13-16 and...

We went to see the movie "It takes a man and a woman" last week. Oh, it was terrific. It has been a week now but the "feel-good" thing about it still lingers in my system. I love the script. It is very simple but realistic:...
