"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go. Things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they are right. You believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself. And sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together." - Marilyn Monroe
So i read these three quotes the other day. It was so weird, i found them on Twitter. I had just had a fight with my friend and i was thinking about what to do. I read them in the order they are in above. I knew what i had to do. I know it sounds weird, listening to a quote to help you in life. But it helped, i read them, i got the opinion of my best friend, and i blasted music. Now, I'm happy i did what i did.friends are the people who will stick by your side through the ups and downs. No matter what happens they will be there for you, or they aren't real friends. So if it comes down to a choice, follow your heart, but make sure your brain goes with you so you don't do anything stupid.
I have a question. Have you ever read a quote that related to something happening in your life? Did it change the way you were thinking or did it make you even more sure you were doing the right thing?
Leave a comment with some of your favorite quotes. I'd like to read some of them.
“The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life"
ReplyDeleteproverbs in the bible.
This means that even in a fight, a good person will keep good words in their mouth that heal situations, or attempt to make them better. It means keeping your cool when others lose theirs.
And when that happens you bring new life to things.
“Whoever is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.”
This one means that it takes more bravery and courage to hold your temper and tongue than it does to conquer nations!
But what about friends who always pick fights with you?
“Better is a dry morsel with quiet than a house full of feasting with strife.”
Its more peaceful to eat a crust of dried out old bread alone than to have a huge feast in a house with fighting during the meal.
Its a lot better to do without people who hurt you than try to live with them.
