Do You Believe You’re on the Path You’re Meant to Be?

A journey is an extremely powerful metaphor, mainly when we use it to describe life. When you think about it, a journey tells your life story. It explains how your character develops and how your dreams unfold.

In real life, you are the protagonist, and you completely control how your story plays out. If you make poor decisions and follow the wrong path, this will lead to severe consequences down the road.

But, if your choices are driven by logical reasoning and thoughtful planning, all will fall into place. Any failure along the way will be treated as stepping stones up the ladder of success.

Always remember that the outcome of your journey is based on how you will drive your own life. You are the one who will decide whether you use all the hardships and struggles to your advantage or not. Remember that the choices you make have consequences, so make sure you’re ready for anything and everything.

With that, we hope these life is a journey quotes were able to help you confront your path and journey. Keep this collection as your guide whenever you feel lost, and find your way back!

Poetry, philosophy, history, and movies are all topics I love writing about! However, my true passion is in traveling, photography, and finding common ground to which everyone from different cultures can relate.

With the many places I’ve been to, I found that love, inspiration, and happiness are some things that bring people together. No matter how different we are on the outside, I’m a true believer that our emotions don’t lie; if you dig deep into our psyche, we’re all the same inside.

This belief was further amplified when I joined Quote Ambition. Through the quotes I’ve read, collected, organized, and written about, I found that humans are resilient, creative, and compassionate.

We take from each others’ hearts and courage, and it’s through our individual experiences that we learn how to rise above our challenges and pain. In so many ways, Quote Ambition is a platform that allows people from all over the world to gain the inspiration they need anytime, anywhere!

Life Is A Journey Quotes

Standart top banner.

Life is a journey, not a destination. Happiness is not "there" but here, not "tomorrow" but today.

If you do not know where you are going, every road will get you nowhere

Life is a journey, but don't worry, you'll find a parking spot at the end.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I intended to be.

Life is a journey. How we travel is really up to us. We can just flow with the tide or follow our own dreams.

Your life is a journey of learning to love yourself first and then extending that love to others in every encounter.

If the path be beautiful, let us not ask where it leads.

The whole journey of life is a journey of preparation... to see, to feel, to understand the beauty of what lies ahead, of the homeland towards which we walk.

Remember, Life is a journey, not a destination.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Watch your step.

All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.

Life is a journey, not a home; a road, not a city of habitation; and the enjoyments and blessings we have are but little inns on the roadside of life, where we may be refreshed for a moment, that we may with new strength press on to the end - to the rest that remaineth for the people of God.

The feeling remains that God is on the journey, too.

The moment in between what you once were, and who you are now becoming, is where the dance of life really takes place.

It may be that when we no longer know what to do, we have come to our real work, and that when we no longer know which way to go, we have begun our real journey.

The journey is what brings us happiness not the destination.

And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.

Life is a journey up a spiral staircase; as we grow older we cover the ground covered we have covered before, only higher up; as we look down the winding stair below us we measure our progress by the number of places where we were but no longer are. The journey is both repetitious and progressive; we go both round and upward.

A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving.

The only journey is the one within.

If you don't know where you are going, you might wind up someplace else.

Life is a journey for us all. We all face trials. We all have ups and downs. All of us are human. But we are also the masters of our fate. We are the ones who decide how we are going to react to life.

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.

All that is gold does not glitter.

Kelly! I am so sorry to hear about your loss and pray that you daughter has a speedy recovery. I am deeply touched by your comment and agree with you completely. Please feel free to reach out anytime if you need to talk or just share favorite quotes!

Sassy Sister Stuff Accessibility Statement

Accessibility Statement

• www.sassysisterstuff.com
• July 3, 2024

Compliance status

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.

To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.

This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.

Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.

If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email [email protected] .

Screen-reader and keyboard navigation

Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:

Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.

These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.

Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside of it.

Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.

Disability profiles supported in our website

• Epilepsy Safe Mode: this profile enables people with epilepsy to use the website safely by eliminating the risk of seizures that result from flashing or blinking animations and risky color combinations.
• Visually Impaired Mode: this mode adjusts the website for the convenience of users with visual impairments such as Degrading Eyesight, Tunnel Vision, Cataract, Glaucoma, and others.
• Cognitive Disability Mode: this mode provides different assistive options to help users with cognitive impairments such as Dyslexia, Autism, CVA, and others, to focus on the essential elements of the website more easily.
• ADHD Friendly Mode: this mode helps users with ADHD and Neurodevelopmental disorders to read, browse, and focus on the main website elements more easily while significantly reducing distractions.
• Blindness Mode: this mode configures the website to be compatible with screen-readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack. A screen-reader is software for blind users that is installed on a computer and smartphone, and websites must be compatible with it.
• Keyboard Navigation Profile (Motor-Impaired): this profile enables motor-impaired persons to operate the website using the keyboard Tab, Shift+Tab, and the Enter keys. Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.

Additional UI, design, and readability adjustments

• Font adjustments – users, can increase and decrease its size, change its family (type), adjust the spacing, alignment, line height, and more.
• Color adjustments – users can select various color contrast profiles such as light, dark, inverted, and monochrome. Additionally, users can swap color schemes of titles, texts, and backgrounds, with over 7 different coloring options.
• Animations – epileptic users can stop all running animations with the click of a button. Animations controlled by the interface include videos, GIFs, and CSS flashing transitions.
• Content highlighting – users can choose to emphasize important elements such as links and titles. They can also choose to highlight focused or hovered elements only.
• Audio muting – users with hearing devices may experience headaches or other issues due to automatic audio playing. This option lets users mute the entire website instantly.
• Cognitive disorders – we utilize a search engine that is linked to Wikipedia and Wiktionary, allowing people with cognitive disorders to decipher meanings of phrases, initials, slang, and others.
• Additional functions – we provide users the option to change cursor color and size, use a printing mode, enable a virtual keyboard, and many other functions.

Browser and assistive technology compatibility

We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers), both for Windows and for MAC users.

Notes, comments, and feedback

Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to [email protected] .

Understanding life’s metaphorical highway journey

July 01, 2024 — 05:10 pm EDT

Written by Jeff Rose for Due.com  ->

Life is a highway; we are all travelers on this long, winding road. This metaphorical journey is filled with twists and turns, ups and downs, and a myriad of experiences that shape us into who we are. The phrase “Life is a highway, I won’t ride it all night long” encapsulates the essence of this journey, emphasizing the importance of taking breaks, reflecting on our experiences, and not rushing through life. This article delves into the profound meaning behind this phrase, exploring its implications on our approach to life, personal growth , and overall well-being.

The metaphor of life as a highway

The metaphor of life as a highway is a powerful one. Highways are long, stretching across vast landscapes, much like our lives, which span many years. They are filled with different terrains, mirroring the various phases and experiences we go through. Sometimes, the road is smooth, reflecting the times when everything in life seems to be going well. Other times, it’s bumpy and filled with potholes, symbolizing our challenges and hardships.

Just as we navigate through different roads, we navigate through different stages in life . We make choices at crossroads, take detours when the path seems blocked, and sometimes, we even make U-turns when we realize we’ve taken a wrong turn. This metaphor beautifully encapsulates the essence of life, emphasizing that it’s not just about the destination but also about the journey.

The importance of taking breaks

The phrase “I won’t ride it all night long” underscores the importance of taking breaks in life. Just as it’s not safe or healthy to drive continuously without rest, it’s not beneficial for us to keep pushing ourselves without taking time to rest and rejuvenate.

In today’s fast-paced world, we often find ourselves caught up in the hustle and bustle of life, trying to achieve our goals and meet societal expectations . However, this constant striving can lead to burnout, stress, and a host of other mental and physical health issues.

Taking breaks lets us step back, reflect on our journey, and gain a fresh perspective. It allows us to recharge our batteries to continue our journey with renewed energy and enthusiasm. During these quiet moments of rest and reflection, we often gain the most profound insights about ourselves and our lives.

Personal growth on the highway of life

The journey on the highway of life is also a journey of personal growth and self-discovery . Each experience we encounter, whether good or bad, serves as a lesson that helps us grow and evolve. Our challenges are like the steep, uphill roads that test our strength and resilience . They may be tough to navigate, but they make us stronger and more capable.

Similarly, the successes and achievements are like the smooth, downhill roads that allow us to accelerate and enjoy the ride. They give us a sense of accomplishment and boost our confidence . However, it’s important to remember that just like an actual highway, life is not always about speed. It’s about enjoying the journey, appreciating the scenery, and learning from each experience.

In conclusion, the phrase “Life is a highway, I won’t ride it all night long” is a powerful reminder of the journey that life is. It emphasizes the importance of taking breaks, reflecting on our experiences, and not rushing through life. It encourages us to view each experience as a lesson, fostering personal growth and self-discovery. As we navigate the highway of life, let’s remember to enjoy the journey, appreciate the scenery, and, most importantly, take care of ourselves. After all, life is not just about reaching the destination but also about the journey itself.
