Everyone dies but not everyone lives.

William Wallace

Let life be beautiful like summer flowers and death like autumn leaves.

Rabindranath Tagore

Life is a balance of holding on and letting go.

Spring passes and one remembers one's innocence. Summer passes and one remembers one's exuberance. Autumn passes and one remembers one's reverence. Winter passes and one remembers one's perseverance.

La madurez es cuando dejas de quejarte y de poner excusas en tu vida; te das cuenta de que todo lo que sucede en la vida es el resultado de la elección anterior que has hecho y comienzas a tomar nuevas decisiones para cambiar tu vida.
