I am the master of my fate. The captain of my soul.
I believe that miracles are about seeing and recognizing what is already there. I don't think God sends these things, I think they are already there, and therefore explainable in 100 different ways, but the miracle is that you see it and know it means more. The miracle is sent to your head and to your heart.
I believe that to nurture my soul and fulfill my soul's purpose, I must learn from every event in my life, I must come to realize that every experience has within it a seed of tremendous gift.
I know my thoughts create my reality. I focus on what I want, rather than what I don't want.
I pretended to be somebody I wanted to be until finally I became that person. Or he became me.
I struggle and I come through" or the Latin translation "Luctor et Emergo
"I will not die a life not Lived.
I will not live in fear of falling or catching fire.
I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my living to open me, to make me less afraid, more accessible, to loosen my heart until it becomes a wing, a torch, a promise.
I choose to risk my significance; to live so that which comes to me as seed goes to the next as blossom and that which comes to me as blossom, goes on as fruit."
I would rather be ashes than dust. I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.
I'm not concerned that you have fallen. I am concerned that you arise
I've found that if you love life, life will love you back.
Ideas should be clear & chocolate thick.

I tend to use this phrase in a page I have in mind. I saw this painted on the wall of the boys room on the "Duggers". I have no idea who wrote it.
Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be accomplished without hope and confidence.
Other people's opinion of you does not have to become your reality.
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate; our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light--not our darkness--that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the universe. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. You were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within you. It's not just in some of us--it's in all of us, and as we let it shine we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.
"People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness. Just because they're not on your road doesn't mean they've gotten lost."
-H. Jackson Brown, Jr
Poetry is the art of creating imaginary gardens with real toads.
Remember, people will judge you by your actions, not your intentions. You may have a heart of gold--but so does a hard boiled egg.

"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do.
It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company ... a church ... a home.
The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past ... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.

Then, without realizing it, you try to improve yourself at the start of each new day; of course, you achieve quite a lot in the course of time. Anyone can do this, it costs nothing and is certainly very helpful. Whoever doesn't know it must learn and find by experience that a quiet conscience makes one strong.
There are two ways to look at life. One is as though nothing is a miracle; the other is as though everything is.

a sense of humor.
Everyday is a Gift, that's why they call it the Present.
Everyone has an angel
Given to us from the start
Trust and faith is what we need
To hear them in our heart.
Everyone has inside him a piece of good news. The good news is that you don't realize how great you can be! How much you can love! What you can accomplish! And what your potential is!
Everything is fascinating, including lint.
Everything you can imagine is real.
excerpt from Giving Back chapter from "Three Black Skirts":
Fourteen ways to live green,
#6. Recycle
*use refillable bottles for your kitchen, cleaning, and beauty products. it's economical and it cuts down on waste.
* encourage your coworkers to use recycled copy paper. Keep a recycling bin near the copy machine or anywhere else bulk paper accumulates.
*reuse envelopes for mailiing bills and other impersonal documents.
* recycle all cans, bottles, and newspapers both at work and at home.
If recycling is not mandatory in your community, start small with a neighborhood initiative.
Explore. Dream. Feel.
f human beings are perceived as potentials rather than problems, as possessing strengths instead of weaknesses, as unlimited rather that dull and unresponsive, then they thrive and grow to their capabilities.
Failure seldom stops you; what stops you is the fear of failure.
Fairy tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten
Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light.
Faith means being sure of the things we hope for and knowing that something is real even if we do not see it.
Hebrews 11:1
Family is precious, make childhood days special because we no not what life holds, treat your family right because when they come to the end of their journey you dont want to look back and only have regrets
Always show love and kindness
Far away in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead.
Far away, there in the sunshine are my highest aspirations;
I may not reach them but I can look up to them,
see their beauty
and try to follow where they lead.
Few burdens are heavy when everyone lifts.
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things.
Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense
Finish each day and be done with it...tomorrow is a new day...begin it well.
First say to yourself what you would be; and then do what you have to do.
First say to yourself what you would be; and then do what you have to do.
Follow the grain in your own wood.
For a web begun, God sends thread.
For beautiful eyes,
look for the good in others;
for beautiful lips,
speak only words of kindness;
and for poise,
walk with the knowledge that
you are never alone.
For every man the world is as fresh as it was at the first day,
And as full of untold novelties for him who has the eyes to see them.
For every minute you are angry, you lose sixty seconds of happiness.
For most of life, nothing wonderful happens. If you don't enjoy getting up and working and finishing your work and sitting down to a meal with family or friends, then the chances are that you're not going to be very happy. If someone bases his happiness or unhappiness on major events like a great new job, huge amounts of money, a flawlessly happy marriage or a trip to Paris, that person isn't going to be happy much of the time. If, on the other hand, happiness depends on a good breakfast, flowers in the yard, a drink or a nap, then we are more likely to live with quite a bit of happiness.
For peace of mind, resign as general manager of the universe.
Fortune favors the bold.
Friends can lift our heads when our shoulders are sinking and stand with us through tears and laughter.
Friendship, books, a cheerful heart, and conscience clear, are the most choice companions we have here.
--William Mather
Genuine beginnings begin within us, even when they are brought to our attention by external opportunities
Go confidently in the direction of your dreams
Go confidently in the direction of your dreams, live the life you have imagined.
Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined
Go confidently in the direction
of your dreams.
Go out into the world today and love the people you meet. Let your presence light new light in the hearts of people.
Go the extra mile. Don't worry, it won't be crowded.
Go to where the puck is going, not to where it is.
God could not be everywhere and therefore he made mothers.
God did not give you a spirit of fear, but a spirit of power, love, and self-control.
God gave us memories so that we may have roses in December.
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
God knew my every desire,
and He was waiting on the other side
of my failure and my shattered dreams
with some dreams of His own...
Gods voice is the single candle in this dark world that will guide you to him.
Grant that I might always desire more than I can accomplish.
Great Spirits have often encountered violent opposition from weak minds.
Happiness depends upon ourselves.
Happiness does not depend on the outward things, but on the way we see them.
Happiness doesn't necessarily mean having everything, it's loving everything you have.
Happiness is like jam, you can't spread even a little without getting some on yourself
Happiness is not achieved by the conscious pursuit of happiness; it is generally the by-product of other activities.
Have a story to tell.
He who works with his hands is a laborer. He who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman. He who works with his hands and his head and his heart is an artist.
His grace is great enough to meet the small things; the little pin-prick
troubles that annoy, the insect worries, buzzing and persistent, the
squeaking wheels that grate upon our joy.
History will never change, maybe will happen again!
Home is the place where nobodies are somebodies and the great of the earth are ordinary people.
Hope is the feeling you have that the feeling you have isn't permanent.
Housework only comes before Scrapbooking in the dictionary!
How do I change?
If I feel depressed I will sing.
If I feel sad I will laugh.
If I feel ill I will double my labour.
If I feel fear I will plunge ahead.
If I feel inferior I will wear new garments.
If I feel uncertain I will raise my voice.
If I feel poverty I will think of wealth to come.
If I feel incompetent I will think of past success.
If I feel insignificant I will remember my goals.
Today I will be the master of my emotions.
How lovely to think that no one need wait a moment, we can start now, start slowly changing the world! How lovely that everyone, great and small, can make their contribution toward introducing justice straightaway... And you can always, always give something, even if it is only kindness!
How lucky are you to be a piece of the puzzle called world
How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world
However long the night, the dawn will break.
I am aware that I am less than some people prefer me to be, but most people are unaware that I am so much more than what they see.
I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination.
I am in full Sunshine now
I am not afraid of storms for I am learning to sail my ship.
I am not afraid of storms: For I am learning how to sail my ship.
I am only one. But still, I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something. And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something that I can do.
I am so optimistic I would go out in a row boat to catch Moby Dick and bring the tarter sauce with me
I am sure there is magic in everything.
I am sure there is magic in everything.
I believe in the sun, even when it's not shining.
I believe in love, even when I don't feel it.
I believe in God, even when He is silent.
I can do all things in Him who strengthens me.
I challenge you to make your life a masterpiece.
I challenge you to join the ranks of those people
who live what they teach, who walk their talk.
I come from the Creator,
like everyone else,
trailing wisps of glory...
I could not at any age be content to take my place in a corner by the fireside and simply look on.
I don't care how much you know until I know how much you care.
I don't know whats around the bend, but I'm going to believe the best does
I find the greatest thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving.
I Have Been Through Some Terrible Things In My Life, Some Of Which Actually Happened.
I have often found that I regret the things I haven't done more than the things I have.
I learned that it is the weak who are cruel, and that gentleness is to be expected only from the strong.
I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress and grow brave by reflection.
i never fall apart because i never fall together
I never think of the future - it comes soon enough.
I read and walked for miles at night along the beach, writing bad blank verse and searching endlessly for someone wonderful who would step out of the darkness and change my life. It never crossed my mind that that person could be me.
I see my strength in your eyes.
I see you in every picture, I hear you in every song
I sought my soul,
But my soul I could not see.
I sought my God,
But my God eluded me.
I sought my brother,
And I found all three.
I think that we all carry the divine within us.
I tried to conquer the universe...and it defeated me;
I tried to understand the universe...and it outwitted me;
I tried to capture the universe...and it eluded me;
So, clumsily, hesitantly, I tried to love the universe...
And it embraced me.
~Harriette Glassetter
I was always looking outside myself for strength and confidence, but it comes from within. It is there all the time.
I wish I could show you, when you are lonely or in darkness, the astonishing light of your own being.
I wish I could show you, when you are lonely or in darkness, the astonishing light of your own being.
I won't change anything because I think the most important thing is being yourself and that's what I'm going to continue to do.
I would rather walk in the dark with God than go alone in the light.
I'll stand by you, do not let nobody hurt you.
I've always been in the right place and time. Of course, I steered myself there.
I've always preferred to have wings than to have things.
I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back.
If all difficulties were known at the outset of a long journey, most of us would never start out at all.
If anyone asks what your accomplishments are...show them a picture of your children.
If at first you don't succeed, try, try again!
Never give up!
If I can see it, I can do it.
If I just believe it there is nothing to it.
I believe I can fly.
I believe I can touch the sky.
If I should count my blessings, I would count you twice!
If it is not in the scrapbook it didn't happen!!!!
IF LIFE THROWS YOU LEMONS... MAKE LEMONADE
If not now, when?
If nothing ever changed...there would be no butterflies
IF ONE FEELS THE NEED OF SOMETHING GRAND, SOMETHING INFINITE, SOMETHING THAT MAKES ONE FEEL AWARE OF GOD, ONE NEED NOT GO FAR TO FIND IT. I THINK THAT I SEE SOMETHING DEEPER, MORE INFINITE, MORE ETERNAL THAN THE OCEAN IN THE EXPRESSION OF THE EYES OF A LITTLE BABY WHEN IT WAKES IN THE MORNING AND COOS OR LAUGHS BECAUSE IT SEES THE SUN SHINING ON ITS CRADLE." Vincent van Gogh
IF ONLY I KNEW
If the facts don't fit the theory, change the facts.
If the shoe fits, buy the matching handbag....
If they obey and serve Him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.
If we all did the things we are capable of doing, we would literally
astound ourselves.
If we all did the things we are capable of doing, we would literally astound ourselves.
If we did all the things we are capable of, we would astound ourselves!
If we do not live, speak and think in the language of enchantment, including naming angels and recognizing spirits...then the soul will go out of our lives and communities, and we will wonder why nothing seems to hold together and nothing seems to have value anymore.
If you are going down the wrong road, God allows U-Turns!
If you are never scared or embarrassed or hurt, it means you never take any chances.
If you are to hit the mark, you must aim a little above it.
If you aren't the lead dog, the scenery never changes.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
If you can find humor in anything, you can survive it.
If you can't be a good example, be a bad warning!
If you can't hear me, maybe you're not listening.
God
If you cannot be a poet, be the poem.
If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place.
If you don't know where you're going, when you get there you will be lost
If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude. Don't complain.
If you dream it... you can become it.
If you find it in your heart to care for somebody else, you will have succeeded.
If you find it in your heart to care for somebody else, you will have succeeded.
--Maya Angelou
If you haven't got all the things you want,be grateful for the things you don't have that you don't want.
If you just set out to be liked, you would be prepared to compromise on anything at any time, and you would achieve nothing.
If you limit your choices only to what seems possible or reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want, and all that is left is a compromise.
If you live gladly to make others glad in God, your life will be hard, your risks will be high, and your joy will be full.
If you look at what you have in life, you'll always have more. If you look at what you don't have in life, you'll never have enough.
If you only have one smile in you, give it to the people you love
If you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.
If you would not be forgotten as soon as you are dead, either write things worth reading or do things worth writing.
If you're focused on what you've left behind, you will not be able to see what lies ahead. Now go ahead and look around!
If you're worried and you can't sleep
Just count your blessings instead of sheep
And you'll fall asleep counting your blessings
If your ship doesn't come in, swim out to it.
Imagination has always had powers of resurrections that no science can match.
Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Imagination is more important than knowledge...
Imagination is more important than knowledge...
Imagination is more than knowledge.
Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you will what you imagine, and at last you create what you will.
Imitation is the sincerest of flattery.
Impossible itself says I'm possible.
In every walk with nature, one receives far more than he seeks.
In prosperity our friends know us; in adversity we know our friends.
In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.
In the midst of Winter I finally learned that, in me, there was an invincible Summer.
In the present, every day is a miracle.
In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: It goes on.
Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.
Instead of telling God how big your problems are, try telling your problems how big your God is!
Is there some principal of nature which states that we never know the quality of what we have until it is gone?
~ Elbert
It is better to light one candle than to curse the darkness.
It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end.
It is in changing that things find purpose.
It is more blessed to give than receive.
It is never to late to be what you might have been.
It is never too late to be what you might have been.
It is no small thing when they, so fresh from God, love us.
It is not our abilities that show what we truly are, it is our choices.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to those who are actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs, and comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; who does actually try to the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who -at the worst- if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly.
Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those spiri...
It is not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog.
It is not the years in your life that count. It is the life in your years.
It is often as sacred to laugh as it is to pray.
It is only by going through difficulties that we become strong. By opening up to love when we are facing such trials we can understand that we are not alone but have the unconditional support that we need from angels.
It is our choices that show who we truly are, far more than our abilities.
It is up to us to give ourselves recognition. If we wait for it to come from others, we feel resentful when it doesn't, and when it does, we may well reject it.
It takes a long time to bring excellence to maturity.
It was from you that I first learned to think, to feel, to imagine, to believe.
It's about love. You don't have to scrapbook to love but you have to love in order to scrapbook.
It's alright letting yourself go, as long as you can get yourself back
It's alright letting yourself go, as long as you can get yourself back
-- Author:Mick Jagger
It's funny how when you are on to something the whole world starts to affirm it for you.
It's kind of fun to do the impossible.
It's not about having what you want, it's about wanting what you have.
It's not about the destination, it's about the Journey!!
It's not the big things done with little heart,
It's the little things done with big heart.
It's only when we truly know and understand that we have a limited time on earth - and that we have no way of knowing when our time is up - that we will begin to live each day to the fullest, as if it was the only one we had.
It's time to start living the life you've imagined.
Its not the size of the dog
in the fight, but the size
of the fight in the dog
Its not what you say. Its how you say it.
It’s not what we have in our life, but who we have in our life that counts.

Journeys, like artists, are born and not made.
--Lawrence Durrell
Just go as far as you can go--from there you can see farther.
Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.
Keep your face in the sunshine and you will not see the shadows.
Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see a shadow.
Keep your fact to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadows.
Keep your thoughts and feelings in harmony with your actions. The surest way to realize your purpose is to eliminate any conflict or dissonance that exists between what you're thinking and feeling and how you're living your days.
Keep your thoughts on what you intend to create. Stay consistently matched up with the field of intention, and then watch for the clues that what you're summoning from the all-creative Source is arriving in your life.
Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.
Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear and the blind can read.
Laugh often, Dream big, Reach for the stars!
Let him sleep for when he wakes he will move mountains!!
Let us learn to appreciate there will be times when the trees will be bare, and look forward to the time when we may pick the fruit.
Let us make one point...that we meet each other with a smile, when it is difficult to smile...Smile at each other, make time for each other in your family.
Let your dreams carry you on wings of promise all the way to the stars!written By:B Trenton
Let's give the historians something to write about.
LIFE AFFORDS NO GREATER RESPONSIBILITY NO GREATER PRIVILEGE THAN THE RAISING OF THE NEXT GENERATION.
LIFE IS ...WHAT WE MAKE IT. ALWAYS HAS BEEN, AND ALWAYS WILL BE.
Life is 10% of what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it.
Life is a cup to be filled -- not drained.
LIFE IS A JOURNEY, today you are getting closer to fulfilling your purpose
LIFE IS EITHER A DARING ADVENTURE, OR NOTHING.
Life is eternal; and love is immortal; and death is only a horizon; and a horizon is nothing save the limit of our sight.
Life is filled with treasures, some-days the map is clear, other days you might really have to dig.
Life is fragile, handle with prayer.
Life is Fragile, handle with Prayer.
Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. The trick to
getting out of the well is to shake it off and take a step up. Each of our troubles is a stepping stone. We can get out of the deepest wells just by not giving up! Shake it off and take a step up!
Life is hard by the yard, but by the inch life's a cinch.
Life is like chocolates...without its bitterness and sweetness, it's NOTHING!
Life is not measured by the Breaths we take , But by the Moments that take our breath away...
Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breaths away.
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take,
But by the moments that take our breath away.
Life is short,
Break the rules,
Forgive quickly,
Kiss slowly,
Love truly,
Laugh uncontrollably,
And never regret anything that made you smile.
Life is too short to wake up with regrets.
So love the people who treat you right.
Love the ones who don't because you can.
Believe everything happens for a reason.
If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands.
If it changes your life, let it.
Kiss slowly. Forgive quickly.
God never said life would be easy. He just promised it would be worth it.
Life is too short to wake up with regrets.
So love the people who treat you right.
Love the ones who don't just because
you can.
Believe everything happens for a reason...
If you get a second chance, grab it with
both hands.
If it changes your life, let it.
Kiss slowly.
Forgive quickly.
God never said life would be easy.
He just promised it would be worth it.
Life is very interesting... In the end, some of your greatest pains become your greatest strengths.
Life is what happens while we are busy making other plans.
Life's a dance you learn as you go.
Light tomorrow with to-day!
Like a star in the sky you were meant for higher heights.
You are no ordinary girl, you were meant for something more.
Like hide-and-go-seek: the future curves toward the past then folds back again, seamlessly, always expressing itself in the present tense.
Live in such a way that those who know you but don't know God, will come to know God because they know you...
Live it up, Drink it down, Laugh it off!
Live well. Love much. Laugh often.
Live, love, and laugh often, for you never know which moment is going to be your last.
Lives of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime,
And, departing, leave behind us
Footsteps on the sands of time.
Look at each day through the eyes of a child...
Look to this day,
for it is life,
the very life of life.
In it’s brief course
lie all the realities and verities of existence,
the bliss of growth, the splendor of action, the glory of power,
for yesterday is but a dream and tomorrow only a vision
but this day, well lived,
makes every yesterday a dream of happiness
and every tomorrow a vision of hope
so, therefore, look to this day!
Love is stronger than any other addiction you will ever have. Pray and believe in God and miracles will happen.
Love is the closest thing we have to fire, so let’s help make the sparks fly.
Love like you've never been hurt, work like you don't need the money, dance like no ones watching.
Love yourself and everything else falls in line. You really do have to love yourself to get anything done in this world.
Make all you can,
Save all you can,
Give all you can.
Make the most of yourself, for that is all there is of you.
Make the most of yourself, for that is all there is of you.
Make Yourself a Light.
Make yourselves nests of pleasant thoughts.
Many dreams come true and some have silver linings,
I live for my dream and a pocket full of gold.
Many have forgotten this truth, but you must not forget it. You remain responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.
May all of your dreams become reality!
May All Your Dreams Be Filled With Bling! ;)
May God hold you in the palm of his hand.
May the rain fall softly upon your fields.
May the road always rise to meet you.
May the sun shine warm upon your face.
May the wind be always at your back.
May you always dream with your heart, and let your dreams inspire your destiny!
May you get all your wishes but one so you always have something to strive for!
May your life be like a wildflower
Growing freely in the beauty
And joy of each day.
Men are like cheese and fine wine, so much better when mature.
Most of us, swimming against the tides of trouble the world knows nothing about, need only a bit of praise or encouragement -- and we will make the goal.
~ Jerome P. Fleishman ~
Most people search high and wide for the keys to success. If they only know, the key to their dreams lies within.
Motherhood is divine reassurance
that God still has faith in man.
Moving-on can never be easy...it takes sometime to heal...till the heart agrees to set you free and love again. Remember the pain and all the sad refrain...Pray and learn ... Love is everywhere and waiting
Music is a powerful force that moves us ordinary people to do extraordinary things.
My fellow Americans; ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country.
--John F. Kennedy
My life is my message.
My MIND is a GARDEN; my thoughts are the SEEDS. I can grow FLOWERS or I can grow WEEDS.
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too. This is my wish.
Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.
Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.
Never be bored, and you will never be boring.
Never be economical with the truth.
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.
Never give in,never,never,never,never,in nothing great or small,
large or petty,never give in except to convictions of honor, and good sense. Never yield to force, never yield to the apparently over whelming might of the enemy.
Never let the fear of failure keep you from the joy of succeeding.
Never regret anything because at one time…it was exactly what you wanted.
Never stop reaching, for the stars are closer than they seem.
No duty is more urgent than that of returning thanks
No matter what your level of ability, you have more potential than you can ever develop in a lifetime
No matter what your write, someone will love it.
No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.
No one can really pull you up very high--you lose your grip on the rope. But on your own two feet you can climb mountains.
No one can really pull you up very high--you lose your grip on the rope. But on your own two feet you can climb mountains.
No one is useless in this world who lightens the burden of it to anyone else.
No one knows what he can do till he tries.
No one who achieves success does so without acknowledging the help of others. The wise and confident acknowledge this help with gratitude.
No pessimist ever discovered the secret of the stars, or sailed to an uncharted land, or opened a new doorway for the human spirit.

Noble souls, through dust and heat, rise from disaster and defeat the stronger.
Nobody is bored when he is trying to make something that is beautiful, or to discover something that is true.
Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.
Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are.
Not knowing your destination is half the fun!
Nothing is a Failure if you Consider it a Learning Experience.
Nothing is more then this day
Nothing is worth more than this day.
Nothing that was worthy in the past departs; no truth or gooodness realized by man ever dies, or can die.
O God, You know my wayward heart,
So prone to choose an earthly part;
From vain affections set me free,
That I may always look to Thee.
Once in a blue moon, people will surprise you... and once in a while, people may even take your breath away."
One generation plants the trees, another gets the shade.
One has not discovered the true beauty of America until seeing the Sequoia. It was standing tall when the Lord walked this earth.
One man with great courage makes a majority.
--Andrew Jackson
One more moment when one would love to live forever.
One of the hardest things to accept is that you are more than one person. There is one you are on the outside and the one that is locked up banging on the door. Let it out, it will get you far.
One of the sanest, surest, and most generous joys of life comes from being happy over the good fortune of others.
~ Archibald Rutledge ~
One of the things I learned the hard way was that it doesn't pay to get discouraged. Keeping busy and making optimism a way of life can restore your faith in yourself.
One today is worth 2 tomorrows.
One we discover how to appreciate the timeless values in our daily experiences, we can enjoy the best things in life.
Only dull people are brilliant at breakfast. . .
Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.
Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.
Only when we give joyfully without hesitation or thought of gain; can we truly know what love means
Optima dies... prima fugit (The best days are the first to flee)
Or heritage and ideals, our code and standards - the things we live by and teach our children - are preserved or diminished by how freely we exchange ideas and feelings.
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are ...
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be??
Our greatest glory is not in failing, but in raising up every time we fail.
Our hearts are full of treasures untold.
Our lives are not determined by what happens to us but by how we react to what happens, not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life. A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a catalyst, a spark that creates extraordinary results.
-Anon.
Our Lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.
People are like hard filled candy, you suck on them long enough, you will reach the soft center.
People are like stained glass windows: they sparkle and shine when the sun's out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is light within.
People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing - that's why we recommend it daily.
People only see what they are prepared to see
Perfection only exists in our minds.
Perhaps they are not stars, but rather openings in Heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy.
Please don't take your organs to Heaven. Heaven knows we need them here.
Possibilities and miracles are one and the same.
Problems are only opportunities in work clothes.
Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.
Prosperity depends more on wanting what you have than having what you want.
Pursue truth and people will be true to you.
Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal.
Really great (people) make you feel that you, too, can become great.
Really great people make you feel that you, too, can become great.
Relax. And dream a little.
Remember that in all things - What you think of as a mistake is only a chance to use your imagination and ingenuity.
Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck.
Remember that wherever you want to go, a superior education is the best ticket.
Remember, all the answers you need are inside of you; you only have to become quiet enough to hear them.
Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, it's at the end of your arm. As you get older, remember you have another hand: The first is to help yourself, the second is to help others. -- Audrey Hepburn
Renunciation is not getting rid of the things of the world, but accepting that they pass away.
Right now you are one choice away from a new beginning - one that leads you toward becoming the fullest human being you can be.
Running is a great metaphor for life, you get out of it, what you put into it.
SCHOOL DAYS,SCHOOL DAYS,DEAR OLD GOLDEN RULES DAY.READING AND WRITING AND ARITHMETIC.GOOD OLD GOLDEN SCHOOL DAY.
Security—does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.
Serendipity is the act of finding something valuable or delightful when you are not looking for it.
Serenity is ours when we allow the angels to quiet the turbulent forces of life and leave our souls in deep stillness.
Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss you'll land among the stars.

Since we cannot get what we like, let us like what we can get.
Small deeds done are better than great deeds planned.
Smiles are the soul's kisses.
Some people strengthen others just by being the kind of people they are.
some things have to be believed to be seen.
Someone will always be smarter. Their house will be bigger. They will drive a better car. Their children will do better in school. And their partners will fix more things around the house. So let it go and love you and your circumstances. Think about it. The prettiest woman in the world can have hell in her heart. And the most highly favored woman on your job may be unable to have children. The richest woman you know---she has the car, the house, the clothes---might be heartbreakingly lonely. So, love you. Love who you are right now. Tell yourself, "I am too blessed to be stressed."
Sometimes in the winds of change we find our direction.
Sometimes to reach your goal, you need to fly.
Sometimes we fall, only to realize there's a new
strength within us, to keep going on.
Sometimes you have to take the leap,
and build your wings on the way down.
Squeeze that noodle and see what you come up with!
Start by doing what's necessary, then what's possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible.
Stop worrying and take a chance!
Storms make oaks take deeper root.
Strength is not about power. It's about endurance.
Strength is the capacity to break a chocolate bar into four pieces with your bare hands--and then just eat one of the pieces.
Strivers achieve what dreamers believe!
Success is not final
Failure is not fatal
It's the courage to continue that counts!
Such as we are made of, such we be
Sweet memories are woven from the good times.
Take my hand and you will see the best is yet to be.
Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.
Take time every day to do something ridiculous.
Take time to recharge your batteries. It's hard to see where you're going when your lights are dim.
That which we persist in doing becomes easier to do, not that the nature of the thing has changed, but our power to do is increased.
That's the way things come clear. All of a sudden. And then you realize how obvious they've been all along.
The afternoon knows what the morning never suspected.
The beginning is the most important part of the work.
The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.
The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.

The Cards Of Life
When The Cards Of Life Come Crashing Down All Around You,
Dust Off Your Dress, Quit Chasing That White Rabbit,
And Get Back To Work!

The creative mind plays with the objects it loves.
The cure for everything is saltwater...

The difference between the ordinary and the extraordinary is that little extra.
The fearless are merely fearless. People who act in spite of their fear are truly brave.
--James A. LaFond-Lewis
The first and worst of all frauds, is to cheat one's self. All sin is easy after that.
The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
The future belongs to those who live intensely in the present.
The future belongs to those who
believe in the beauty of their dreams.
The future is called 'perhaps,' which is the only possible thing to call the future. And the only important thing is not to allow that to scare you.
The good things of life were made to enjoy.
Enjoying a thing means sharing it with others.
The Grand essentials of happiness are: something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.
The grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.
The grandest of heroic deeds are those which are performed within four walls and in domestic privacy.
The grass is greener on the other side but still as hard to mow
The greater danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it.
the greater danger is not that our hopes are too high and we reach them—it is that they are too low and we do…
The greater part of our happiness depends on our disposition and not our circumstances.
The greater the obstacle, the more glory in overcoming it.
The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.
The greatest waste in all the world is living below our potential.
The happy heart runs with the river,
floats on the air,
lifts to the music,
soars with the eagle,
hopes with the prayer.
The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky proclaims the work of His hands.
Psalm 19:1
The indispensable first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: decide what you want.
The man who has no imagination, has no wings.
The minute you begin to do what you really want to do, it's really a different kind of life.
The minute you begin to do what you really want to do, it's really a different kind of life.
The more you ask how much longer it will take, the longer the journey will seem.
--Maori proverb
The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.
The most important things in life are not things...
The most important trip you may take in life is meeting people halfway.
The most precious "things" in life are not "things" at all.
The people in your life are like the pillars on your porch. Sometimes they hold you up, and sometimes they lean on you. Sometimes it's enough to know they are standing by.
The person who relies upon
The Lord's sufficiency
Is like a tree that's planted by
Deep waters flowing free.
The place to improve the world is first in one's own heart and head and hands, and then work outward from there.
The poet judges not as a judge but as the sun falling around a helpless thing
The potential possibilities of any child are the most intriguing and stimulating in all creation.
THE PRIVILEGE OF A LIFETIME IS BEING WHO YOU ARE.
The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.
The reward of a thing well done, is to have done it.
The right road lies under your tongue. Just ask.
The silence of the night listens to a rushing woe ...a silent weeping of a discontented and tired heart ... only time can wipe away pain and bring a new start...and the promise of someday everything will be alright....(Moneshearl)
The smallest deed is better than the grandest intention. Larry Eisenberg
The soul is healed by being with children
The soul is not where it lives but where it loves.
The spaces between my fingers are right where yours fit perfectly! ^.^
The steeper the mountain, the harder the climb, the better the view from the finishing line.
The test of people is what they can do when they are tired.
The ultimate mystery is one's own self.
The universe is a palace of mirrors, reflecting back what ever you project.
The world is as you see it..
Thoughts become things, therefore you are the creator of your own experiences.
You cannot change what is happening to you, however you can change the way you think about it, therefore changing your experience of the thing itself..
The visions that we present to our children shape the future. They become self-fulfilling prophecies. Dreams are maps.
The walls we build around us to keep sadness out also keeps out the joy.
The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.
The way I see it...
"Our lives are inspired by the dreams we have from the earliest stages of our youth. When you combine passion and hard work, then success is always possible. While no road is ever straight, didication and persistence will always lead you to your dreams."
The white light streams down to be broken up by those human prisms into all the colors of the rainbow. Take your own color in the pattern and be just that.
The Will of God will NOT take you, where the GRACE of God won't PROTECT you!
The words of God are not like the oak leaf which dies and falls to the earth, but like the pine tree which stays green forever.
The world is but a canvas to the imagination.
The world is so full of a number of things, I'm sure we should all be as happy as kings.
The world of reality has its limits; the world of imagination is boundless.
There are no great things, only small things with great love, happy are those.
There are three marks of an angel's work. First, they always say: "Don't be afraid. We're here. We're taking care of things." Second, you are filled with warmth and joy. Home! cries your lost and lonely soul, flooding with remembrance. Third, you are never quite the same: you cannot forget.
There are three ways to mourn: through tears, through silence, and by turning sorrow into song.
There are two lasting bequests we can hope to leave our children: One of these is roots. The other, wings.
There are two ways to live your life.
One is as though nothing is a miracle.
The other is as though everything is a miracle
There are two ways to live your life—one is as though nothing is a miracle, the other is as though everything is a miracle.
There are victories of the soul and spirit. Sometimes, even if you lose, you win.
There is a difference between knowing the path and walking the path. - The Matrix
There is a serious defect in the thinking of someone who wants -- more than anything else -- to become rich. As long as they don't have the money, it'll seem like a worthwhile goal. Once they do, they'll understand how important other things are -- and have always been.
~ Joseph Brooks ~
There is in every true woman's heart a spark of heavenly fire, which lies dormant in the broad daylight of prosperity; but which kindles up, and beams and blazes in the dark hour of adversity.
There is no danger of developing eyestrain from looking on the bright side of things.
There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up.
There is no such thing as a coincidence, just God's hand in a greater plan!
There is no true gracefulness which is not epitomized goodness.
There will always be a certain sadness in one's heart ..where lies broken dreams and wasted affection....tomorrow can't give a promise of togetherness...nor can the tears kept from falling...you walk through the rain with that certain sadness...and it will silently stay.
There will come a time when you believe everything is finished. That will be the beginning.
There's a basic human weakness inherent in all people which tempts them to want what they can't have and not want what is readily available to them.
~ Robert J. Ringer ~
There's a path that leads to Nowhere
In a meadow that I know,
Where an inland river rises
And the stream is still and slow;
There it wanders under willows
And beneath the silver green
Of the birches' silent shadows
Where the early violets lean....
All the ways that lead to Somewhere
Echo with the hurrying feet
of the Struggling and the Striving,
But the way I find so sweet
Bids me dream and bids me linger -
Joy and Beauty are its goal;
On the path that leads to Nowhere
I have sometimes found my soul.
There's only us there's only this. forget regret or life is yours to miss. no other road, no other way, no day but today
There’s always room for improvement, you know—it’s the biggest room in the house.
They can because they think they can.
They may forget what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel.

They say dreams are the windows of the soul - take a peek and you can see the inner workings, the nuts and bolts.
Things turn out best for people who make the best of the way things turn out.
This above all; to thine own self be true
This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever; in its place is something that you have left behind... let it be something good.

Those who bring sunshine into the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves.
Those who can, do. Those who can teach, do wonders.
Those who hear not the music think the dancers mad.
Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.
Tis nobler to lose honor to save the lives of men than it is to gain honor by taking them.

To build may have to be the slow and laborious task of years. To destroy can be the thoughtless act of a single day.
--Sir Winston Churchill
To do is to be.
To be is to do.
So do be do be do be do.
To give real service you must add something which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that is sincerity and integrity.
To give without any reward, or any notice, has a special quality of its own.
To imagine is everything, to know is nothing at all.
To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong.
To love another person is to see the face of God.
To love one that is great, is almost to be great one's self.
To the world you are one person but to one person you are their world.
To the world you might be one person, but to one person you just might be the world.
Today is non-returnable; make it unforgettable!

AND ALL IS WELL
Today is the tomorrow, we dreamt about yesterday.

Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive that is youer than you.
Today you are you, that is truer than true
There is no one alive who is you-er than you!
Touch
By the touch of your hand
My world has revolutionize
My world has become a superior shadow
Day by day your touch becomes glory
Look into my eyes and see the lust burning
Please, help me!
A touch of your hand makes my folks react.
Believe me, you’re an allure.
That’s keeps my heart beating asking for more reactions.
Your touch leaves a mark of desire, mystification.
How can I deal with the need to your essence?
The need of knowing you will always be there to touch me.
That’s the start of something
The Start of a new era, an era with difference
Tough times never last, but tough people do.
Treat every day like an ice cream cone - enjoy every lick!
Trust your hunches. They're usually based on facts filed away just below the conscious level.
Turn your face to the sun and the shadows fall behind you.
Turn your face to the sun and the shadows will fall behind you.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed
by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did.
So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Give praise for what the other does --
To your success be blind.

Two Wolves
One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. He said, "My son, the battle is between two "wolves" inside us all.
One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, doubt, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.
The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence,empathy, generosity, forgiveness, truth, compassion and faith."
The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "Which wolf wins?"
The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed."
Use what talent you possess; the woods would be very silent if no birds sang except those that sang best.

Wail not for precious chances passed away,
Weep not for golden ages on the wane!
Each night I burn the records of the day,
At sunrise every soul is born again!
watch how you treat the next person your actions are a reflection of your self image.
We all mold one another's dreams.
We all hold each others fragile
hopes in our hands.
We all touch others hearts.
We all take different paths in life, but no matter where we go, we take a little of each other everywhere.
We always hope
Some one else ha the answer.
Some other place will be better.
Some other time it will all turn out.
This is it.
No one else has the answer.
No other place will be better
And it has already turned out
We are the sum of all our experiences, some just don't add up to much. Your equation is up to you.
We are told to let our light shine, and if it does, we won't need to tell anybody it does. Lighthouses don't fire cannons to call attention to their shining- they just shine.”
We aren't on earth to mark time. We are here to make a difference.
We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.
We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures.
We cannot hold a torch to light another person’s path without brightening our own.
We come to beginnings only at an end.
We do not measure life by how many breaths we take. But by how many moments take our breath away.
We don't know who we are until we see what we can do.
We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.
We learn wisdom from failure much more than from success; we often discover what will do, by finding out what will not do; and probably he who never made a mistake never made a discovery.
We must be the change we wish to see in the world.
We must be willing to get rid of the life we’ve planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.
We must have the courage to be imperfect while striving for perfection.
We never know the worth of water 'til the well runs dry.
We really should get to know each other better.

We remember life's pleasures with a fullness of our heart.
Wealthy people have money to oppress the poor, but what they don't know that poor people are blessed.

What Cancer Cannot Do
It cannot cripple love
It cannot shatter hope
It cannot corrode faith
It cannot destroy peace
It cannot kill friendship
It cannot suppress memories
It cannot silence courage
It cannot invade the soul
It cannot steal eternal life
It cannot conquer the spirit
What does the world look like from inside a big bubble? Does the unique view of the world inspire you to think differently? Is the ability to be motivated to seek out the answers borne out of a need to know? It's your journey. Create your destiny. Create ... the world is your canvas.
What lies ahead of you and what lies behind you are nothing compared to what lies within you.

What shall I give Thee, Master?
Giver of gifts divine;
I will not hold time, talents, or gold --
For everything shall be Thine.

What we do in life Echo's in Eternity
What we hope ever to do with ease, we must learn first to do with diligence.

Whatever's meant to happen, will happen; And everything that has happened, happened for a reason.
when god is right in our hearts then our feet will walk his way
When my Mother first dressed me in a hat as if I were a Lady, I owned the title.
When one door of happiness closes, another opens;
but often we look so long at the closed door that we do
not see the one which has been opened for us.
When someone you trust uses you for personal gain, and it makes you look bad or evil, smile....the truth soon shines through.
When the world says, "Give up", Hope whispers, "Try it one more time."
When the world says, "Give up,"
Hope whispers, "Try it one more time."
When we seek to discover THE BEST in others, we somehow bring out THE BEST in ourselves.

When you are lonely, empty and afraid, remember this: An angel who loves and cares for you is somewhere looking for the medicine you need. Look for the medicine messages your angel sends you in its absence....in a rainbow, a dew-sparkling spider web, a falling feather or snowflake, or a stranger's smile.
When you bury the hatchet,
don't mark the spot.
When you cant get through it, you can listen to it.
When you do nothing, you feel overwhelmed and powerless. But when you get involved, you feel the sense of hope and accomplishment that comes from knowing you are working to make things better.--Pauline R. Kezer
When you know better; you do better.
When you were born, you cried and the world rejoiced. Live your life so that when you die, the world cries and you rejoice.
When your problems are bigger than you,
Remember that God is bigger than them.
Whenever you see darkness, there is extraordinary opportunity for the light to burn brighter.
Wherever you are it is your friends who make your world.
Wherever you go, go with all your heart.
Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine.
Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine.
Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine.
Who you are speaks so loudly I can't hear what you're saying.
Whoever is happy will make others happy too.
Why did you grab the rocks which made you falling ?
One can do a straight line with a straight stick or a twisted stick.
Why strive to fit in when you were born to stand out..?
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy.
Max Ehrmann, Desiderata (last paragraph), Copyright 1952.
Within your weakness lies your strength sleeping
Without a test, there can be no testimony.
Work like you don't need the money.
Love like you've never been hurt.
Dance like nobody's watching.
Sing like nobody's listening.
Live like it's heaven on earth.
Yesterday is history
Tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift and that
is why it is called the Present.
You are free to choose, but the choices you make today will determine what you will have, be, and do in the tomorrow of your life.
You are that found spark that I never lost, but I've always been looking for.
You can do anything with anything.
You can't go back and start over my friend, but you can start from here and make a brand new end!
You can't stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.
You do not drown by falling in the water, you drown by staying there.
You don't have to be an adult to make a difference.
You have only to open your eyes to see the hand of God.
You have to expect things of yourself before you can do them.
You lift me, and I'll lift Thee, and We'll both ascend together.
You make me smile from the inside-out.
You may be disappointed if you fail, but you are doomed if you don't try.
You may not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth may be the best thing in the world for you.
You must be the change you wish to see in the world.
You must be the change you wish to see in the world.
You must be the change you wish to see in the world.
You must be the change you wish to see in the world..
You must do the thing you think you can not do.
You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself.
You pushed me off the edge - and I flew. Thank you.
You saw the movie, now live the adventure
You should just say, 'Lord, here are my hands, here are my feet. Just use me.'
You sort of start thinking anything is possible if you've got the nerve.
You will face many defeats in your life, but never let yourself be defeated.
—Maya Angelou
you will only get as far as you go.
Your belief in me allowed me to believe in me.
~ What lies behind us, and what lies before us, Are tiny matters compared to what lies within us. "Success", as measured by the world, is meaningless if one is shallow, callus, without empathy, and self-centered. My dd is so beautiful inside and out, and I want her to stay true to this!
