Recurring theme?

No, not about E, although that's probably what you're thinking, LOL. This is about the quotes and poems I seem to be finding lately. I keep a list going, of bits here and there that "speak to me," and I read over it from time to time. It seems the theme right now is being open to happiness, being willing to change, living more for today. My Anais Nin quote started it. Now here's two more, I really love them:

"Pick the day.
Enjoy it - to the hilt.
The day as it comes.
People as they come...
The past, I think, has helped me appreciate the present
- and I don't want to spoil any of it
by fretting about the future."

Audrey Hepburn


and...

"Drink wine, this is life eternal
This, all that life can give to you
It is the season for wine, roses, and drunken friends
Be happy for this moment, this moment is your life."

Omar Khayyam


Is the universe trying to tell me something? Am I trying to tell myself something?
