star wars quoting
i'm such a geek... feel free to laugh at my geekiness.
yesterday, my coworker was having quite a crisis. her daughter's getting married and is having very many life changes in addition to that. she's just graduated from nursing school and has had lots of schedule changes, as well as responsibility changes and will soon be on her own at a new hospital. so on top of all this, her fiance is pressuring her to make yet another huge change- to move in with him at his house. she doesn't want to add any further stress on herself so she really doesn't want to quite yet, more for the practical sense of it, not for any emotional hesitation or anything. well, he thinks it's because she lets her parents rule her life and gave her an ultimatum saying, "if you're not ready to move in with me now, then you're just not ready to get married." my coworker was telling me all this and what does dorothy say to that?
"not to quote star wars, but only the sith deal in absolutes!"
hahahah, when it escaped my mouth, i thought to myself... did i really just quote star wars?! look what you've done to me artemus.

"To try is to risk failure. But risk must be taken because the
greatest hazard of life is to risk nothing. The person who risks
nothing does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid
suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn, feel, change,
grow, live, and love."
~unknown
"It has been my experience that folks who have no vices have very few virtues."
~ Abraham Lincoln
"live a life that others will remember years from now, NOT because it pointed to you but because of how it pointed to the One who made you."
~ Mark Hart, the Bible Geek
"we grow up learning to become self-reliant, but really we need to be God-reliant"
"we could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box"
"never wound hearts that love u, never give them the endless pain, because wounded hearts are like roses that never bloom"
"there comes a time when we have to stop loving someone not because that person has stopped loving us but because we have found out that they'd be happier if we'd let go"
