NW Okie's Corner

"If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right." - Unknown Author.

Steve Job said it better than I ever could try to put into words. In Jobs speech to the graduating class at Stanford University, June 2005, he said, "Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary." - Steve Jobs, 2005.

Jobs goes on to state, "Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever because believing that the dots will connect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart, even when it leads you off the well-worn path, and that will make all the difference." - Steve Jobs, June 2005, Stanford speech

As the quiet one I do observe and see who I can trust and have a mature, working and personal relationship. Some may take my quietness as a weakness and underestimate (perhaps misjudge is a better word) this NW Okie! That is their mistake! What they do not realize is that I do have a mind of my own!

This NW Okie knows what she wants! Has the courage to follow her own heart! Knows who she is! And does what she wants to do, where she chooses to do it! I believe in following my heart, intuition and doing what is most important.

Life is too short to waste carrying someone else's rocks. Listen to your inner voice and have the courage to follow your heart, intuition!
