"Life is without meaning. You bring the meaning to it. The meaning of life is whatever you ascribe it to be. Being alive is the meaning." - Joseph Campbell
It's a Chinese saying mainly because it was lifted from Confucius.He stated;" DO NOT DO UNTO OTHERS WHAT YOU DON'T WANT OTHERS DO UNTO YOU." It's
a very simple tenet yet so hard to apply sometimes. If you want to be completely joyful,follow this GOLDEN RULE and it will work wonders.
"frolicking listlessly in an open, misty field of wheat as the moon hung in the sky with a sardonic grin"
Well- it's kind of a quote.
Ok- a real quote...

"Ordinary riches can be stolen, real riches cannot.In your soul are infinite precious things that cannot be taken from you."- Oscar Wilde
"Your heart is my Pinata." By Chuck Palahniuk :)
before i share one of my fave qoute, allow me to get into into your consciousness that i am a woman who knows what's the consequence of PLAGIARISM!!! & I don't think i'll commit thAT cheap stupidity!!!
"When we allow bitterness and anger to contaminate our system that means allow total wreck and destruction to take place in our lives."
note: that's on of my fave from my original composition of qoutes!!!
Make for yourself a world you can believe in. It sounds simple, I know. But it's not. Listen, there are a million worlds you could make for yourself. Everyone you know has a completely different one - the woman in 5G, that cab driver over these, you. Sure, there are overlaps, but only in the details. Some people make their worlds around what they think reality is like. They convince themselves that they had nothing to do with their worlds' creations and continuations. Some make their worlds without knowing it. Their universes are just sesame seeds and three-day weekends and dial tones and skinned knees and physics and driftwood and emerald earrings and books dropped in bathtubs and holes in guitars and plastic and empathy and hardwood and heavy water and high black stockings and the history of the Vikings and brass and obsolescene and burnt hair and collapsed soufflés and the impossibility of not faling in love in an art museum with the person standing next to you looking at the same painting and all the other things that just happen and are. But you want to make for yourself a world that is deliberately and meticulously personalized. A theater for your life, if I could put it like that. Don't live an accident. Don't call a knife a knife. Live a life that has never been lived before, in which everything you experience is yours and only yours. Make accidents on purpose. Call a knife a name by which only you will recognize it. Now I'm not a very smart man, but I'm not a dumb one, either. So listen: If you can manage what I've told you, as I was never able to, you will give your life meaning.
