Not my words - but I love them

A friend sent this to me recently - words from Maya Angelou   a great USA author.

They resonated with me big time, given the previous year so I have decided to capture them on the blog.

Maya Angelou said this: 'I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.'

   

"This has been one of my mainstay thoughts over the past year - must continue to do so"

'I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.'

 

"Must get better at dealing with tangled Xmas tree lights instead of throwing on the floor in tantrum and leaving the room"

'I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life.'

 

"I miss my Mum for sure"

'I've learned that making a 'living' is not the same thing as 'making a life.'

I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.'
 

"thank goodness" :)


'I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back...'

  

"Excellent - am throwing back from tomorrow"

'I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.'



'I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.'



'I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug or just a friendly pat on the back...'



'I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.'



'I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.'
