I am so glad I found this!

I'd like to share this:

 

March on. Do not tarry.

To go forward is to move toward perfection.

March on, and fear not the thorns, or the sharp stones on life's path. 

 

Khalil Gibran

 

[JamesSavik]

He was seeing the enormity of the smallness of the enemy who was destroying the world. He felt as if, after a journey of years through a landscape of devastation, past the ruins of great factories, the wrecks of powerful engines, the bodies of invincible men, he had come upon the despoiler, expecting to find a giant—and had found a rat eager to scurry for cover at the first sound of a human step. If this is what has beaten us, he thought, the guilt is ours.

" He who would           

learn to fly one day

must first learn      

to stand                   

and walk                 

and run                   

and climb                

and dance;             

one cannot fly        

into flying."

"Watch the sunrise at least        

once a year, put a lot of         

marshmallows in your hot    

chocolate, lie on your back   

and look at the stars, never  

buy a coffee table you can't  

put your feet on, never pass 

up a chance to jump on a     

trampoline, don't overlook   

life's small joys while           

searching for the big ones."

"When I was 5 years old,

my mother always told me

that happiness was the key

to life. When I went to

school, they asked me

what I wanted to be when

I grew up. I wrote down

'happy'. They told me I didn't

understand the

assignment, and I told them

they didn't understand life".
