You have great timing, Doe… It’s a good day for inspiration.
I’ve been having a horrible week and reading through your entries has helped bring me optimism once more. (Specifically by helping me discover Lady Gaga’s music <3)
Thanks for the advice =]
Thanks for the advice Doe!
I only wish I’d read it yesterday, because I went to the pet shop and almost bought a new hamster. It was out of my comfort zone, knowing how bad I’d be in trouble =[
I just moved back to the US – on the way here, I was on the plane/stuck at the airport for 48 hours.. but somehow.. I’m still smiling! =)
I love making the most of the worst situations!
Just a comment on: *Never expect life to be fair*
I’ve seen some individuals using that old adage “Live is unfair” or “You can’t please everyone” to justify themselves while doing injustice to others.
Yes, unfortunately, life IS unfair, and I agree, we should not expect life to be fair to ourselves. On the other hand, the unfairness is often carried out by people, much less frequently by nature, and I believe that as humans, we came to this world to bring the fairness to life.
You always write such inspirational words ♥
You’re so right. I needed this. Thanks!
I love this, seriously.
such good advice doe!
I’ll have to remember to always come read this when i’m feeling that the world is coming to an end , which *sighs* ispractically every day, ha ha. Well thanks for writing it. *Smiles*
I love this.
