I am a quote junky. I love, love, LOVE quotes! They inspire me to reflect on my life-who I am, but most importantly who I am becoming. Quotes challenge me to live my life with intent (which is crazy hard some days) but at the same time to dance in the moment relishing my one wild life. Here are a few of my favorite quotes:
The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.
William Shakespear
I don't like myself, I'm crazy about myself.

Sophia Loren
Life is a ticket to the greatest show on earth.

Helen Keller
We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give.

To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting.

I am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soul.
William Ernest Henley
To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.
Oscar Wild
When fear stops showing up so often in your life it's because you are nearing your true self.

One way to get the most out of life is to look upon it as an adventure.
William Feather
There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.
Albert Einstein
Sometimes we give too much too soon. Sometimes we hold back for too long. This is our beautiful dance. Our imperfect dance. This is the dance that makes us human.

If you ask me what I came into this life to do, I will tell you: I came to live out loud.
Emile Zola
