You have to forget about what other people say; when you’re supposed to die, when you’re supposed to be lovin’. You have to forget about all these things. You have to go on and be crazy. Craziness is like heaven. – Jimi Hendrix

How Do I Know God Loves Me?
We crave for love, so much so that we look for it even in the worse of people who only hurt us and fail us constantly.

Joyce — I liked this quote very much. I think understanding it depends on how you define crazy. It’s my belief that creativity requires a dose of “crazy” now and then. to me, it’s being totally out there with no safety net and still trusting yourself to find your way back to center.
Thanks for sharing this quote:~)
@Sara – I’m glad you liked it, Sara! Crazy feels good when taken in the perspective you just said: being out there, and yet knowing you could always get back to your center, trusting yourself, trusting in the God who holds you all along.
Choosing to do what feels right is beyond description. Loving the self unconditionally is beyond judgment.
Nice one!
Hi Joyce .. I love the Hendrix quote .. but I too am not sure crazy is not a bit much .. but enjoying life to the full is so important ..
Thanks for reminding us that we need to live life to the full remembering our earth and our soul ..
All the best – Hilary
@Hilary – Yeah, I’m not that crazy too! But just to remind myself to have a little more fun, and to just let go once in a while.
I’m not sure about being “crazy”…but I do know about turning off my mind and letting my heart lead..about opening my heart so fully that adventure, delight, wonder, miracles are every day experiences…
And if I surround myself with people who have good Energy, enthusiastic Spirit, are cretive, faith filled, passionate…then I shall listen to what they say and be joy filled at what they reflect to me/share with me…
@Joy – I guess, that’s what being ‘crazy’ means.
Not being insane or something, but being full of life – adventurous, daring, bold! Just like what you’ve said.
