Truthfully this is one of the most quotable TV series. Between the variety in characters' personalities and the experiences they are presented with, we see it all. Here are some quotes to provide you with a more positive outlook.
1. “Life’s too short to be miserable, to let the bitter ones change how awesome you are”
Often at times it can be easy to get caught up in what other people say or think. However, the important thing here is to be happy regardless of everything else, time spent unhappy is only wasted time. Celebrate yourself today and every day.
2. “Happiness comes in many forms – in the company of good friends, in the feeling you get when you make someone else’s dream come true, or in the promise of hope renewed. It’s okay to let yourself be happy because you never know how fleeting that happiness might be.”
As cliché as it sounds happiness does come from all the little things in life. Take the time to appreciate all the aspects of your life that bring you the purest of joy. Whether it is time spent with your loved ones, doing something you love, or bringing a smile to someone else’s face. Take the time to appreciate all of those small victories of happiness.
3. “Sometimes people have to cry out all their tears to make room for a heart full of smiles."
Whether you're stressed over a test, or you didn't get that job you wanted, let it out. However don't drag it out spending hours over analyzing it. Once you are able to let it all out, you have done yourself the favor of making room for happier thoughts.
4. "People get lost when they think of happiness as a destination. We're always thinking that someday we'll be happy. We will get that car or that job or that person in our lives that will fix everything. But happiness is a mood. And it's a condition not a destination. It's like being tired or hungry. It's not permanent. It comes and goes and that's okay. And I feel like if people thought of it that way, they'd find happiness more often."
We often neglect to remember that we will often find happiness in the journey itself. The end result is not the factor that can bring us happiness, it is sometimes along the way that we find the most unexpected happiness at the most unexpected times.
5. "So make your wish. Do you have it? Good. Now believe in it. With all your heart."
I think we are all a little guilty of having unrealistic goals, dreams and visions. However who says they have to be unrealistic? Go after the things you truly want in life, work hard for them and keep them close to heart. Never let go of a dream, because dreams come true for many people every day.
6. “Without even knowing it, sometimes life has ways of finding you with exactly what you need or exactly who you needed.”
As humans we always want to control every aspect of our lives, we often forget that this life has its own wonderful plan in store for us. Remember that if something doesn’t go just as you hoped it would it is because life has something better in store for you. Life is full of beautiful and unexpected surprises.
7. “There are a handful of moments in your life that you just know while it's happening you’re gonna remember for the rest of your life.”
There are moments in all our lives that define us, moments of joy, moments of change and moments of insight. It is important for us to recognize these moments, and to cherish them always. Appreciate them as they pass, and when looking back keep it as a good memory to smile at from time to time.
8. “Take the time to feel lucky, happy and fortunate. Don’t waste days with what could have been, should have been.”
People are too drawn to the what ifs of their lives. They play situation after situation back in their heads and wonder what would have happened differently. Let go of that. Don’t wonder about things that cannot change, and appreciate all the things you have right in front of you. Appreciate smiles, laughs with good friends, hugs from your loved ones. Cherish that time and cherish them, for those things you are why you are truly blessed and lucky.
9. “Being afraid is ok. But if you don’t work through that fear, you might miss out on some pretty great things”
Fear and doubt can keep us from a lot of great things, and if we take a leap of faith at times you may earn the chance to discover something truly amazing. Work up the courage to apply to the job you are too afraid you might not get. Try out for that sports team that you think you have no chance of making. Tell that person you love them. You never know what you might be missing out on, take a leap of faith.
10. “You’ve got to grab every second you have with the people you love.”
The people we hold closest to our hearts are so very important, time spent with them is priceless and irreplaceable. Jump at every chance you can spend with them. Take that study break to go to dinner and share a few laughs with an old friend. Call up your parents whenever you can. Play that game that your sibling has been begging you to play. You may never get that time back.
11. "All you can do is your best, ok?"
Jamie Scott said it best, at the end of the day all we can do is our very best.
