Maybe it's unrealistic to expect to change the entire world, but whoever is touched by these words can make a difference in some small way, despite the chaos around us, or that is what I believe - I just cannot give up hope altogether!karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12694425567973843826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7968469327864068813.post-21741706983877795552011-10-18T22:42:16.098+02:002011-10-18T22:42:16.098+02:00Great quotes, and much to ponder on.

May he rest in peace.)<br /><br />Friko - maybe unrealistic, but you have to cling on to these ideals?

Some people have understood what Life is really all about, and it makes me happy that they exist. One can become a cynic too easily, but to give love a chance is not impossible, for each of us. And it sure makes our lives happier, so why not dare it?Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06484336744673299416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7968469327864068813.post-1382414599026965262011-10-17T17:44:50.384+02:002011-10-17T17:44:50.384+02:00perfect inspiration for the week ahead. thank you ...perfect inspiration for the week ahead. thank you val.<br />xxxLori annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02860428306713379828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7968469327864068813.post-62108345505783524722011-10-17T17:09:47.326+02:002011-10-17T17:09:47.326+02:00All of them, wise and wonderful.
