Счастье подобно бабочке. Чем больше ловишь его, тем больше оно ускользает. Но если вы перенесете свое внимание на другие вещи, Оно придет и тихонько сядет вам на плечо

Глупо строить планы на всю жизнь, не будучи господином даже завтрашнего дня

Рано или поздно наступает момент, когда ваши пути расходятся. Каждый выбирает свою дорогу, думая, что когда-нибудь они вновь сойдутся. Но со временем они становятся всё дальше. Сначала ты считаешь это нормальным: «вы ведь созданы друг для друга; ведь рано или поздно всё вернётся». Однако, этого не происходит. Вместо этого наступает зима. И ты вдруг понимаешь, что всё кончено. Раз и навсегда. И в этот момент, ты понимаешь, что некоторые вещи случаются всего раз в жизни. И не важно, как сильно ты будешь пытаться почувствовать это снова. Ты больше никогда не поднимешься на три метра над небом…(с)
How much does your life weigh? Imagine for a second that you're carrying a backpack. I want you to feel the straps on your shoulders. Feel 'em? Now I want you to pack it with all the stuff that you have in your life. You start with the little things. The things on shelves and in drawers, the knick-knacks, the collectibles. Feel the weight as that adds up. Then you start adding larger stuff, clothes, table-top appliances, lamps, linens, your TV. The backpack should be getting pretty heavy now. And you go bigger. Your couch, bed, your kitchen table. Stuff it all in there. Your car, get it in there. Your home, whether it's a studio apartment or a two bedroom house. I want you to stuff it all into that backpack. Now try to walk. It's kind of hard, isn't it? This is what we do to ourselves on a daily basis. We weigh ourselves down until we can't even move. And make no mistake, moving is living. Now, I'm gonna set that backpack on fire. What do you want to take out of it? What do you want to take out of it? Photos? Photos are for people who can't remember. Drink some ginkgo and let the photos burn. In fact, let everything burn and imagine waking up tomorrow with nothing. It's kind of exhilarating, isn't it? Now, this is gonna be a little difficult, so stay with me. You have a new backpack. Only this time, I want you to fill it with people. Start with casual acquaintances, friends of friends, folks around the office, and then you move into the people that you trust with your most intimate secrets. Your cousins, your aunts, your uncles, your brothers, your sisters, your parents and finally your husband, your wife, your boyfriend or your girlfriend. You get them into that backpack. And don't worry. I'm not gonna ask you to light it on fire. Feel the weight of that bag. Make no mistake - your relationships are the heaviest components in your life. Do you feel the straps cutting into your shoulders? All those negotiations and arguments, and secrets and compromises. You don't need to carry all that weight. Why don't you set that bag down? Some animals were meant to carry each other, to live symbiotically for a lifetime - star crossed lovers, monogamous swans. We are not those animals. The slower we move, the faster we die. We are not swans. We're sharks.
