thought this was a great quote, i use it as an AIM away message a lot for some reason... found it a while ago in a magazine i believe...

“That’s a really interesting place because that’s where I learn that it’s all in my head and that I create every single little bit of joy and sorrow in my life.”

Yes, it is.

Okay, this is not the complete list but I hope you all enjoy these, as I did.

I did a complete turn around.

Yes! Another day.

To trust in life.

All I was doing was telling everyone else how to live-and I didn't like that at all.

We got everything we wanted and I hated it.

But now I was doing it for me.

I'm very careful not to jump on any bandwagon.

I hope you all like them, they all really touched me--no matter how mundane.

All you need is life.

Yes! Another Day.

Stop trying to be anything, and just live,
experience and be free.

Organic Odyssey.

Obsessively Outstanding.

Overpowering.

I learned to live for today, forget about
your plans or your career.

You have to learn to let go.

Like an accidental surge of energy.

Whenever you have a problem with
someone else, just turn it on yourself.

You can’t really change anyone else.

I’m going to be here for you;
that’s all I’ve got control over and
actually I enjoy being that for you.

To trust in life.

All I was doing was telling other
people how to live. And I didn’t
like that at all.

I feel that everything is the way it is,
and I’m not interested in fighting anymore.

I’m very careful not to
jump on any bandwagon.

You’re absolutely in control of what’s going on in your life-
you just might not choose to accept it at the time.

You don’t have to be powerful
in order to exert control over your life.

We got everything we wanted…and I hated it.

Take a bit of space, and a bit of time,
then everybody calms down.

I did a complete turn around.

But now I was doing it for me.

I know it sounds like crap but having lots
of money has made my life more complex.

You start feeling guilty, and you start wanting to give things away, and then you start feeling imbalanced, and then you
just don't feel connected any more.

The only pressure I feel is from myself.

Here's A full list! Thanks Penny! I found most of these from either interviews or reviews. I find some of them very powerful and they hit me too...it's like oh my gosh..so that's what i've been missing all this time.

If those don't speak to me; nothing does.

Yeah it was me! haha! I just thought it would be cool to do but then after I listened to a few interviews it accumulated to more than a few and then I started reading reviews and then I was just so inspired to find more. I liked them alot so I thought I would share them with the rest of the Igloo. Thanks though. I havn't really been looking anymore. Super busy with school. I'm barely on as it is. But yeah they mean alot to me too...I have a list of them in a picture frame in bright vibrant colors so I love to just read them every morning...they really have inspired me to be a better person...as odd as it seems...

Ooohhhhh *Light bulb*

Hahaha

From "The Professor";

I was a lover indeed, covered in weed.

Man, I'm dumb. Did he actually 'fess up to it? Its kinda a big deal where I live, though it doesn't actually bother me much but, I've not really come in to that whole lax attitude with it in the media.

Wow, I'm entranced.
