I am one of the searchers. There are, I believe, millions of us. We are not unhappy, but neither are we really content. We continue to explore life, hoping to uncover its ultimate secret.

comfort on difficult days, smiles when sadness intrudes, rainbows to follow the clouds, laughter to kiss your lips, sunsets to warm your heart, hugs when spirits sag, beauty for your eyes to see, friendships to brighten your being, faith so that you can believe, confidence for when you doubt, courage to know yourself, patience to accept the truth, love to complete your life

You don't make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved

it isn't the mountains ahead that wear you out, it's the little pebble in your shoe

may it be a light to you in dark places, when all other lights go out

we are all strangers in a strange land

when you finally see what goes on underwater,you realize that you've been missing the whole point of the ocean

Are you happy with some sad days? Or are you sad with some happy days?

The beautiful journey of today can only begin when we learn to let go of yesterday

whatever you do, you need courage

we are products of our past, but we don't have to be prisoners of it

you will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of

life cannot be understood flat on a page; it has to be lived

live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air

I will breathe after my own fashion

being happy is about stringing together all the little things

happiness is the consequence of personal effort
