Deciphering Me.
Well this New year was some kind of poetic season for me...reading books, listening to Brooke Fraser's Songs was such a good time and relaxing for me...anyway here are the few lines extracted from my favorite songs, books I have read, at the television or anywhere else...

-The Da Vinci Code Dan Brown
"In that day, they will say, "Surely. This is Our God."
-Isaiah 26.6 [NIV]
"In the end, it mattered not that you could not close your mind. It was your heart that saved you."

"Nobody Likes a Cranky Grocer"

"We are more than dust...that means something"
-Brooke Fraser [Hosea's Wife"]
"Change isn't eaisy.Changing the way you live means changing the way you think, means changing what you believe about life. That's hard."

"All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by frost."

"It's hard to have anything isn't it? Rare to get it, hard to keep it. This is a damn slippery planet."
— Thomas Harris (Red Dragon)
""What the hell makes you so smart?" I asked. "I wouldn't go for coffee with you, " she answered. "Listen -- I wouldn't ask you." "That, "she replied "is what makes you stupid.""

- Keiko Tobe [With The Light]
"What is History, a fable agreed upon?"

""My heart’s quest is that as God’s eyes search the earth, He would find me to be an extravagant worshipper. I pray this book not only finds itself in your hands, but that it finds itself planted in your heart."
- Darlene Zschech
"I loved that word! When I grew older, I used kira-kira to describe everything I liked: the beautiful blue sky, puppies, kittens, butterflies, colored Kleenex. My mother said we were misusing the word; you could not call a Kleenex kira-kira. She was dismayed over how un-Japanese we were..." Chapter 1, pgs. 1-2
- Kira Kira by Cynthia Kadohata [Never fully read the book yet but hoping I could find a copy of it....]
There are still many books I have read....but it would be too many if i post it all...so I hope you have a great time reading the quotes I have posted....
Happy New Year...
