“Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, it's at the end of your arm, as you get older, remember you have another hand: The first is to help yourself, the second is to help others.”

“For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.”

“Success is like reaching an important birthday and finding you're exactly the same.”

“Pick the day. Enjoy it - to the hilt. The day as it comes. People as they come... The past, I think, has helped me appreciate the present - and I don't want to spoil any of it by fretting about the future.”

“I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it's the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It's probably the most important thing in a person.”

- Audrey Hepburn

Pandora's Bag



















The handle snapped on my trusty bag
A million miles ago
When I squashed down my heart
And squashed down my soul
Hoping in vain it would make me whole
If I made room for theirs instead.

So I turned the bag on its head
And watched the hearts and souls fall
Thought about it, thought about it a lot
And I left them in the road to rot
My bag is lighter now
But the load I carry is not.
