Flirting with life...

So I am trying to keep up with a blog a day in May that Jenni from Story of My Life has challenged us to do. I'm doing pretty great I think! It is only day 4 but I'll take it! Today's blog is supposed to be our favorite quote and why we love it. I couldn't pick one. I know you guys don't know me that well yet but you will probably learn that I love quotes! I have tons of journals lying around with just quotes I stumble upon. So for the purpose of today's blog I limited my quotes to two.

Traveling is like flirting with life; It's like saying,  "I would stay & love you, but I have to go; this is my station."
I just love this quote. I really feel like I can't stay in one place and I come most alive when I am in another city. I love to discover new places. Try new cuisine and meet new people.

May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you're wonderful, and don't forget to make some art- write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope, somewhere in the next year, you surprise yourself.

I send the second quote to my friends on their birthdays. I just love it. I guess it's because it is all the things I wish for myself in words. We all want to surprise ourselves in a good way.
