" So whats worse? Seizing the day, knowing theres a chance your attempt could blow up in your face? or not to even try at all and always wondering whether or not something amazing would've happened if you had tried? something that might have changed your life forever- for the better."
This quote would have to be one of my absolute favorite. It just goes to show not to be afraid of failing and just to go through with it, because it could change your life and for the better. This quote really shows me that I can try and go for something and not have to wonder what could have happened.

Quote by Babatunde Olatunji
" Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. And today? Today is a gift. That's why we call it the present."
I picked this as one of my quotes because I really think that people need to stop worrying about the past, and today is like a present. Everyday we need to just live our life to the fulliest and not worry about what is to come, and what is yet to come.

Quote By Thomas Edison
"Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile. "
This quote to me is so important. Service is one of the most important things we can do. by helping others we actually make a difference to ourselves and the people around us. Doing service for others makes us forget all about ourselves and the problems we are going through.

Quote by Thomas Edison
"I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work."
I really liked this quote, because its taking failing at something and putting it in a more optimistic way. Going for something is so important even if it doesn't work out the first time, just try try again and you will find a way, somehow.

Quote from Abraham Lincoln
"Leave nothing for tomorrow which can be done today."
This, I think is a very important quote. I really need to work on this myself, as well as others, because I always put off things that I could get done right away, but I chose to do something totally different. I am going to definately apply this quote to my life and see if maybe i will be less stressed out about some things.

The Red Wheelbarrow By Williams
so much depends
upon
a red wheelbarrow
glazed with rainwater
beside the
white chickens.
I chose this poem because it seems so useless, but I think it has a different aspect to it. It shows how the wheelbarrow is a tool that is used for hard work . Williams is able to make an everyday item seem important.

Spring and All by Williams
But now the stark dignity ofentrance—
Still, the profound changehas come upon them:
rooted theygrip down and
begin to awaken
This poem is very inspiring. After the long winter the little plants witheld the troubles and once spring comes pulls out and begins to sprout. This poem could be related to us. There are going to be times in our lives that will be hard, but we just have to push through, and just know that we can make it, just as a plant.
