I've been through some strange and rough times through my life. Don't get me wrong, I wouldnt be without them, they are why I am who I am today. But they have forced me to think more about some things than maybe all people have to. As I am sure most of you have too.

You develop defense strategies in such situations, or you don't survive. For me one is an attitude to life, call it a motto, if you wish, but I suspect it means a litle more to me than for some.

I think I stole it partly from some poets, and frankly it doesnt matter to me who or if I did, but for me the guiding light has been these words for years;

I will not go silently into the dark
I will RAGE against the dying of the light


What's yours?

Love
gilth

I've had a few through the years but this one has stuck:


Where your mind goes your life follows.

Hard to remember when my mind goes places it shouldn't:
Anger= hurt, fear and frustration

Happy Friday!

Hi,

I am trying to go by this one not very succesfully though smile

“It is better to have lived one day as a tiger than a thousand years as a sheep.” – Tibetan saying.

Also don't put off till tomorrow what you can do today.
Make the most of every day you have because it may be your last.

The unbroken sprirt obscured and disquiet finds clearness this trial demands for at the of the day, sighs an anxious relief for his fortune lies still in his hands.

Yeah you stole it from that auspicious American poet Rodney Dnagerfield in Back TO School.

From 10-20 Mantra-- "We can rebuild him, we can make him faster, we can make him stronger" ... and so began the insertion of mechanical replacement parts into my young body.

from 20-30 mantra--- "Pass the beer"

from 30-40 mantra--- "why is it so bright in here"

from 40-50 mantra--- "get busy living or get busy dying" also fond of "too blessed to stress."

I'm a slow learner.

No matter how bad you think you have it, there is always someone worse off than you with a better attitude.
