  1. Our time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. – Steve Jobs<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

    I love this quote, because I\u2019ve seen so many people fall out of touch with themselves, their own personality and their own desires trying to be someone else. They don\u2019t even necessarily have to want to be someone else, but they want what another person has, or they want to act like someone, or look like someone else is still equivalent to that. Not loving what you have and choosing to enhance that will lead you astray to where you will be looking for attention or fulfillment elsewhere.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    2) \u201cHappiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony\u201d. -Mahatma Gandhi<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

    I love this quote, because so many people live life without ever fully publicly expressing themselves and how they feel for fear of being judged. You can honestly and truly tell when a person is happy. You don\u2019t have to know everything about them, and you most definitely don\u2019t have to be friends or what not. If someone is comfortable and confident in their own skin. If you do something rude and it doesn\u2019t evoke a reaction from them that makes them act out of character, or if they can easily remove things or people from their life that cause them stress or trouble, you know that person is happy. Everything about that person\u2019s life will align simply because they are care free and happy.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    3) \u201cWriting to me is simply thinking through my fingers.\u201d -Isaac Asimov<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

    There\u2019s something about his quote that just defrosts my heart. This describes how I think about writing perfectly. People who aren\u2019t writers or fans of writing can\u2019t even begin to understand how important writing is in my life. People see writing as aa chore, or a job, because they refer it to similarly to English. Yes, there are some similar concepts, but they are nothing alike. Writing is telling a story, not like a fable or a tall tale, or some fake magic world. You can do that in writing, but I prefer more of telling my story. All my writing is personal and 95% true. If I absolutely have to write something fictional there is still some form of truth in it or there is some remnant of my life in there.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
