Things That Are Important To Remember In Life

[M@]

Stu's thread got me thinking about a thread like this. Basically, any quotes, sayings, theories, etc.... anything, really, that is important to you to remember as far as living your life to the fullest goes, put in here. I'll start.

Never, never, never take your loved ones foregranted. Love them to the fullest, and show them that you love them before it's too late.

A person should not believe in an "-ism," he should believe in himself. I quote John Lennon, "I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me."

I saw this in an email a while back and thought it was pretty cool. It really makes you stop and think about your life.

A psychology professor took a large mayonnaise jar to his lecture. First he filled it to the top with golf balls and asked the students if the jar was full. When the students agreed, he took out a bag of marbles and poured it in, the marbles rolled into the jar and filled the gaps between the golf balls. He asked again if the jar was full and when people agreed that it was, he poured in a bag of sand, which then filled all the small gaps between the golf balls and the marbles. When everyone agreed that the jar really was full and there can't be room for anything else, the professor took out a can of beer and emptied all the contents into the jar.
He then told the students, the golf balls represented the most important aspects of our lives - those who you love, your friends and family and your partner.
The marbles are the very important and meaningful things in your life - your work, study, food and excercises...
Sand is the small things you cannot get away with such as housework

You have to make sure that you put the things that are most important in life first. If you put the sand in the jar first, you wont have room for anything else.

If you're wondering what the beer is for, it goes to show you that no matter how busy your life is, you always have time for a beer. :)

There will ALWAYS be some perceived global catastrophe threatening to change our lives as we know it.

And that's from me.

I saw this on a church thingy...

Death- The end of excuses, the beginning of eternity....

Umm, one I live my life by... Live everyday as if its your last.. but make mature choices. Look out for the ones you love, whether it be the ones you love now, or in the near future, because you never know what tomorrow or the next day may bring. Never regret.. Everything happens for a reason, its just up to you to make the right choices.

^^wow, ain't that about the truth?^^

there's ALWAYS something for us to be scared of.. terrorism, cancer, bird flu, west nile, etc; even though those things are always a possibility I don't let the fear consume my life.

This is what I've learned and applied to my life the most. My personal opinion is that this is the absolute most important thing in life, for me, my family.

Take advantage of all the time you have with them, it all could be taken away at any moment. (could go for everything else also)

If I'm curt with you, it's because time is a factor. I think fast. I talk fast. And, I need you guys to act fast if you wanna get out of this. So, pretty please with sugar on top, clean the fucking car.

If it works, leave it alone!

It takes more time to go back and redo something, than it
would have, if done right, the first time.

All that is needed for evil to triumph, is that good men do nothing.

I'd rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6.
