Tagged

A joyful moment! I have been tagged again!!!
This one goes, have a guess, to Carmel, and I should write done some quotes that have a deeper meaning for me, that I just like and remember at some time.
To be honest, the first one that came into my mind was:

"Life is like a box of chocolate, you never know what you get"

Haha, let's turn it into guessing movies :) It is simple, eh, but in the end it it so true.

"Der Mensch kann nicht tausend Tage ununterbrochen gute Zeiten haben, so wie die Blume nicht hundert Tage blühen kann" Treng-Kuang

I shall translate the sense of this one: it says, that a human cannot have good times forever, just as a flower does not blossom all year round.

"Humor is mankind's greatest blessing." Mark Twain

Oh this is soo true...

"Can miles truly separate you from friends... If you want to be with someone you love, aren't you already there?" Richard Bach

This reminds me of Carmel and Jonathan. It also reflects my point of view. A lot of people say that long-distance relationships do not make sense, but if its really love, it does.

"I thank you God for most this amazing day, for the leaping greenly spirits of trees, and for the blue dream of sky and for everything which is natural, which is infinite, which is yes." E. E. Cummings

This is a part of a poem which reminds me of natures untouched beauty.
Unfortunately I need to stop here, I really got caught in it, lol. I have to leave for my cousin's birthday party.
Quote if you want to quote!
