LIFE IS...

The elemental fact, present in our consciousness every moment of our 
existence, is: I am life that wills to live, in the midst of life 
that wills to live. ... The essence of the humane spirit is: 
Preserve life, promote life, help life to achieve its highest 
destiny. The essence of Evil is: Destroy life, harm life, hamper the 
development of life.

life is like music, it must be composed by ear, feeling and 
instinct, not by rule. Nevertheless one had better know the rules, 
for they sometimes guide in doubtful cases, though not often.

Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to 
you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what 
happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.
