Happiness lies ahead for those who cry; those who hurt, those who have searched, and those who tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives.

Always keep that happy attitude. Pretend that you are holding a beautiful fragrant bouquet.

So pour the rain and feed the tribe that clings to every devils bribe
So come on you losers you low-life sinners

Roll the dice

by Charles Bukowski if you’re going to try, go all the way. otherwise, don’t even start. if you’re going to try, go all the way. this could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives, jobs and maybe your mind. go all the way. it could mean not eating for 3 or 4 days. it could mean freezing on a park bench. it could mean jail, it could mean derision, mockery, isolation. isolation is the gift, all the others are a test of your endurance, of how much you really want to do it. and you’ll do it despite rejection and the worst odds and it will be better than anything else you can imagine. if you’re going to try, go all the way. there is no other feeling like that. you will be alone with the gods and the nights will flame with fire. do it, do it, do it. do it. all the way all the way. you will ride life straight to perfect laughter, it’s the only good fight there is.

…Light and meek float of the days,
Reflects the beauty of summery shift,
…Passage of sunny & vibrant rays,
Swirling its joy in wanderous drift.

Translucent poise and vibrant view,
…Alley of winds clearing the sight,
Merging of senses, mystic and new,
..Blending of visions, warm and bright.

~Lana Radovic

You savored the luxury of Another day …mingled in a surreal crowd of shine You walked the dogma in yet another way …willingly surrendered to the bottom line To tease the victory with its other half …still happy from yesterday’ confident stumble To challenge reluctance in the pride of laugh …still dazzled and sore of being too humble Go on and sleep over the parade of fame …sunk in the cushion of irrelevant streams Cover your reach with a pictureless frame …give it a real life with your awakened dreams ~Lana Radovic

Only when we are no longer afraid – do we begin to live. -Dorothy Thompson

The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. Just listen. Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention…. A loving silence often has far more power to heal and to connect than the most well-intentioned words.

With heaven emerged …its skin touching like gentle leaves…Thoughts laid upon the questions…And all the answers in the roots of the trees…When sun rises on my side…It’ll give you warmth through the branches of our souls…When sun fades away…It’ll lean on the warm coast of your eyes…When you feel thirsty…It’ll cover your lips with moist face of miracles…that walked this long road between down and sunrise…Between yesterday and tomorrow…In the branches of our own galaxy…Your stars converge and blend in a new universe…A forest of dreams…A fortress of what seems to be illusions…That continue to perish into a reality…carried by the winds of delight..In a fairytale that holds its silent love…In those tangled veins…traveling to the epicenter of the Earth …savoring kisses emerged from a lost moonlit embrace…Lana Radovic

No, I regret nothing
Edith Piaf (1915-1963)

Non, rien de rien No, nothing at all
Non, je ne regrette rien No, I regret nothing
Ni le bien qu’on m’a fait, ni le mal Neither the good done to me, nor evil
Tout ça m’est bien égal While I do not care
Non, rien de rien No, nothing at all
Non, je ne regrette rien No, I regret nothing
C’est payé, balayé, oublié It paid, swept away, forgotten
Je me fous du passé I do not care past

Avec mes souvenirs With my memories
J’ai allumé le feu I lit the fire
Mes chagrins, mes plaisirs My sorrows, my pleasures
Je n’ai plus besoin d’eux I no longer need them
Balayés mes amours Swept away my love
Avec leurs trémolos With their tremolos
Balayés pour toujours Swept away forever
Je repars à zéro I’m heading back to zero

Non, rien de rien No, nothing at all
Non, je ne regrette rien No, I regret nothing
Ni le bien qu’on m’a fait, ni le mal Neither the good done to me, nor evil
Tout ça m’est bien égal While I do not care
Non, rien de rien No, nothing at all
Non, je ne regrette rien No, I regret nothing
Car ma vie For my life
Car mes joies For my joys
Aujourd’hui Today
Ça commence avec toi… It starts with you …

No, nada de nada No, nada de nada

No, no me arrepiento de nada No, no me arrepiento de nada
Ni el bien que me han hecho, ni el mal Ni el although I han hecho, ni el ill
Todo eso me da lo mismo Todo eso me da lo mismo
No, nada de nada No, nada de nada
No, no me arrepiento de nada No, no me arrepiento de nada
Está pagado, barrido, olvidado Está pagado, barrido, olvidado
Me da lo mismo el pasado Me da lo mismo el pasado

Con mis recuerdos Con mis recuerdos
Yo prendí el fuego Yo takes el fuego
Mis tristezas, mis placeres Mis tristeza put placeres
Ya no tengo necesidad de ellos Ya no tengo necesidad de ellos
Barridos mis amores Barridos mis amores
con sus trémolos con sus tremolos
barridos para siempre barridos para siempre
Vuevo a partir de cero Vuevo from a cero

No, nada de nada No, nada de nada
No, no me arrepiento de nada No, no me arrepiento de nada
Ni el bien que me han hecho, ni el mal Ni el although I han hecho, ni el ill
Todo eso me da lo mismo Todo eso me da lo mismo

No, no me arrepiento de nada No, no me arrepiento de nada

Your soul knows the geography of your destiny. Your soul alone has the map of your future, therefore you can trust this indirect, oblique side of yourself. If you do, it will take you where you need to go, but more important it will teach you a kindness of rhythm in your journey. J. O’Donohue

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won’t feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

“Live this day as if it will be your last. Remember that you will only find ”tomorrow” on the calendars of fools. Forget yesterday’s defeats and ignore the problems of tomorrow. This is it. Doomsday. All you have. Make it the best day of your year. The saddest words you can ever utter are, ”If I had my life to live over again. ”Take the baton, now. Run with it! This is your day! Beginning today, treat everyone you meet, friend or foe, loved one or stranger, as if they were going to be dead at midnight. Extend to each person, no matter how trivial the contact, all the care and kindness and understanding and love that you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.”

Og Mandino

Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle. The world you desire can be won. It exists. It is real. It is possible. It is yours. – Ayn Rand

Don’t worry my trusted sweet friend

don’t worry my trusted sweet friend
emancipation of fools will never end
what’s on your mind is their wish
you think big they think fish

don’t worry my devoted sweet forever love
but don’t forget what they did in the cove
obscure honor, fake prestige, image to soar
no, not what we sacrificed all the years for

be patient dear friend time will come
when all they stole will be nothing to sum
all lies all theft deception and greed
will burn to ashes with no left seed

there is a force higher or a meek ovesight
where everything is under justified sight
where no croooked guard no roothless crook
can escape justice and everlasting look

look at the fading ovation to the game
that leads to nothing and delivers the same
the same fruitless shadow of lost lives
the same blood on backstabing knives

don’t worry my trusted sweet friend
emancipation of fools will never end
but there’ll come a time a brighter day
when ruthless chipmonks will stay at bay

a bay where no human has ever crossed
where they will be ones who are bossed
by irrelevance of their empty souls
by incapacity of their lowlife goals

don’t worry my trusted sweet friend
your suffering will very soon end
this is a time your long-awaited day
when all your joy is here to stay

•.¸¸.•¨¨*•.¸¸.•¨•.”I have often been downcast, but never in despair; I regard our hiding as a dangerous adventure, romantic and interesting at the same time. In my diary I treat all the privations as amusing. I have made up my mind now to lead a different life from other girls and, later on, different from ordinary housewives. My start has been so very full of interest, and that is the sole reason why I have to laugh at the humorous side of the most dangerous moments.”

For the test of the heart is troubled, And it always comes with the years. And the smiles that is worth the praises of earth is the smile that shines through tears.

♪♫•*¨*•.¸¸¸.•*¨“Do you not know that there comes a midnight hour when every one has to throw off his mask? Do you believe that life will always let itself be mocked? Do you think you can slip away a little before midnight in order to avoid this? Or are you not terrified by it? I have seen men in real life who so long deceived others that at last their true nature could not reveal itself;… In every man there is something which to a certain degree prevents him from becoming perfectly transparent to himself; and this may be the case in so high a degree, he may be so inexplicably woven into relationships of life which extend far beyond himself that he almost cannot reveal himself. But he who cannot reveal himself cannot love, and he who cannot love is the most unhappy man of all.”
