1. “Live for each second without hesitation.” – Elton John
2. “Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes … the ones who see things differently — they’re not fond of rules … You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things …” – Steve Jobs
3. “Life is like a coin. You can spend it any way you wish, but you only spend it once.” – Lillian Dickson

11. “You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.” – Mae West

Hi Lauren. You write great content, plus you’re a superstar in the making, so it’s my pleasure to follow your journey. Yes, it is easy to grow despondent in the moment of things not going as one would hope, or as Kierkegaard declared, the “absurdity of life.” Even so, there is so much beauty along the journey of life that it is worth experiencing.

Those picks are certainly noteworthy. #14 spoke to me also, in that it is a constant reminder that every day provides another opportunity to reflect on ways to reinvent our full selves, personal, career, relational, etc. Sometimes, that which we seek is closer than it appears. And it’s just a matter of patience and timing. I appreciate you for pushing the conversation forward. ☺️

English Romantic [Era] poet William Wordsworth once said it is up to us, meaning writers, to fill our work with the breathings of our heart. It looks like you and I are on the right track.
