Thinking Outside of the Garment Bag- Isak Dinesen(1885-1962)

"Difficult times have helped me to understand better than before, how infinitely rich and beautiful life is in every way,and that so many things that one goes worrying about are of no importance whatsoever...”

That's so rad! ; )

Had started off my grey Monday feeling blue, and a coffee & late breakfast with my friend Isabel set me straight.

It's all a matter of perception anyway. Glass half empty, glass half full. Being happy really is a question of choice.

Totaly right on all!!!! I love quotes like this because they all realy have the basic principle but they are all spoken differently. One would strike me one day, but another worded compleatly differently on a different day would strike me more.

I saw Out of Africa for the first time on Sunday and am now obsessed with the "Governess" and her strong sence of who she is and realy stubborn and did not make excuses. She wanted what she wanted....even if it was not hers :)

Cristi Silva said...

Dude Big Daddy you are so so so rad, no I am not... :) I saw the movie " Out of Africa" and was inspired by her story and so I resurched a lot of her writing under "Isak Denesen" and I thought this was the most awesomest quote!!!
