Humor

People with a good sense of humor 
have a better sense of life.

Life is an open canvas.

There is no inherent meaning in any information. 
What matters, is what we DO with the information.
Context is everything.
We see what we have learnt to see. 
We KNOW things because of the statistics of our past experience.
Our brains redefine our reality.
The reality is empty.

Black and white - the same, but different.


Be yourself.

“To be yourself
 in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else
 is the greatest accomplishment.” 
― Ralph Waldo Emerson

Life is about creating your own reality. 
Aiming to be the best verison of yourself.
You, yourself, are your own biggest competition and obstacle. 
Don't take others for a standard.
Don't let anybody taint your happiness.
We walk our own path and in the end,
 we walk it alone.
Find happiness in yourself, in life as it is, 
and you'll never feel lost again. 
Follow what you love, what makes you passionate, 
and you can't go wrong.

We're all a little weird. And life is a little weird.


                                    “I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge. 
That myth is more potent than history. 
That dreams are more powerful than facts. 
That hope always triumphs over experience. 
That laughter is the only cure for grief.
And I believe that love is stronger than death.”
― by Robert Fulghum, one of my favourite writers

Beginnings

“It’s much easier, 
she realized,
 to be on the verge of something 
than to actually be it.”

— Markus Zusak; “The Book Thief”


...and also, the stories with the best endings are the ones that never even began...

I know it's kind of sad
but, 
I have to admit, 
beautiful as well,
how our dreams and hopes 
have the capacity
 to make us 
so happy.

Not my monkeys

Thought of the day:
Choose your battles, save your nerves.
But the Polish said it better.
