What moves us through each day? Do we avoid the bad or consciously seek the good? Beginning now, we can affirm: "Rather than being driven by pain, I will be pulled by a vision. Instead of being caught up in busyness, I stop to acknowledge God's Presence. If I'm paralyzed by procrastination, may I soon be propelled forward by a rush of gratitude."
Mary Manin Morrissey

When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my children's lives may be, I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds, I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief.
Wendell Berry

By clinging to our pain we depower ourselves. We begin to believe we have no
other choice but to feel pain. We argue for our limitations thereby adopting
them and limiting ourselves.
Lynn Atkinson

We can only give away to others what we have inside ourselves.
Wayne Dyer
