Mistakes Make Our Fate

"Maybe mistakes are what make our fate... without them what would shape our lives? Maybe if we had never veered off course we wouldn't fall in love, have babies, or be who we are. After all, things change, so do cities, people come into your life and they go. But it's comforting to know that the ones you love are always in your heart... and if you're very lucky, a plane ride away."

- Sex in the City

I have never watched an episode of this show. I just happened to stumble across this quote today. So far all of the quotes that I have shared with you here for Tube Tuesdays I have seen and have either transcribed them or found them online. This entry feels like I've cheated, but it is a great quote an deserves a spot in my commonplace book. I hope you enjoy it!

Finally Going Somewhere

"What's amazing is when you can feel your life going somewhere. Like, your life just figured out how to get good. Like, that second."

- Angela from an episode of My So-Called Life

I've felt like this a few times in my life. I think life takes us where we need to be, and on some rare occasions we can actually feel that we are in the right place and that things will work out great.

Isn't that how we should feel more often?

Things Happen for a Reason

"When you want something, the whole Universe conspires to help you realize your desire" - The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho

My dad always says that things happen for a reason. I truly believe that. When I read this amazing book I immediately thought of this. This is an amazing novel. I highly recommend it to anyone. It has a lot to say about destiny about working hard, and about realizing your potential.
