Life is not at all a game of accumulating everything you need and maintaining a certain level of happiness, for happiness after all cannot be maintained. Life is a constant flow, of touching and growing and moving on. Life is either experienced or not, in joy and in sadness, in anger and in despair. Those who choose not its sorrows choose not its happiness as well; and those who choose not to live fully choose only to crumble and to die. – www.itakeoffthemask.com

One reply on “Life – quote”
So very true–I’m trying to learn more and more each day how to “live fully” and embrace life with its happiness and its sorrows. I believe its true too that happiness cannot be maintained, but we can choose to hold on to our “joy” no matter what the circumstances. …And yes, I’m still working on the later also!
God Bless,
Janet
